After going through it I would contend that yes, BOOF IS A
(CIA?) HOAX to help them get back their pre 1989 proxy state, that a
local African Muslim government took from their hands in 1989...The
previous pre-1989 state there was heavily dependent and a proxy of
USAID/CIA funds...
The North of Sudan had historically closer ties with Egypt and
was predominately Arab and Muslim. The South of Sudan was
predominately black, with a mixture of Christianity and Animism.
These divisions had been further emphasized by the British policy of
ruling Sudan’s North and South administratively separately. From 1924
it was illegal for people living above the 10th parallel to go
further south, and people below the 8th parallel to go further north.
The law was ostensibly enacted to prevent the spread of malaria and
other tropical diseases that had ravaged British troops, as well as
to prevent Northern Sudanese from raiding Southern tribes for slaves.
Critics however, have stated that the law was enacted to prevent the
spread of Islam and Arab influences south. The result was increased
isolation between the already distinct north and south and arguably
laid the seeds of conflict in the years to come.
The resulting conflict was known as the civil war and lasted
from 1955 to 1972. In 1972, the Addis Ababa Agreement led to a
cessation of the north-south civil war and a degree of self-rule.
This led to a ten-year hiatus in the civil war. Under the Addis Ababa
Agreement Southern Sudan was given considerable autonomy.
[edit]
Second Sudanese Civil War
Main article: Second Sudanese Civil War
In 1983 the civil war was reignited following President Gaafar
Nimeiry’s decision to circumvent the Addis Ababa Agreement. President
Gaafar Nimeiry attempted to create a Federated Sudan including states
in Southern Sudan, which violated the Addis Ababa Agreement which had
granted the South considerable autonomy. The Sudan People's
Liberation Army formed in May 1983 as a result. Finally, in June
1983, the Sudanese Government under President Gaafar Nimeiry
abrogated the Addis Ababa Peace Agreement[1]. The situation was
exacerbated after President Gaafar Nimeiry went on to implement
Sharia Law in September of the same year [2].
The civil war went for more than 20 years, resulting in the
deaths of 2.2 million Christians and Animists, and displacing roughly
4.5 million people within Sudan and into neighbouring countries. It
damaged Sudan’s economy and led to food shortages, resulting in
starvation and malnutrition. The lack of investment during this time,
particularly in the south, meant a generation lost access to basic
health services, education, and jobs.
Sudan has an authoritarian government in which all effective
political power is in the hands of President Umar Hassan al-Bashir.
Bashir and his party have controlled the government since he led the
military coup on 30 June 1989.
And THAT independent action in my opinion, set off the whole
opera bouffe of Opera Bouf.
Opera Bouf: Another Ham Handed U.S. Psyops Project, Courtesy of
the U.S. Against the Sudan
I apologize for its looseness. Just assembling some very odd
associations of interests between the supposed "feminist/womanist
human rights for Sudan" Bouf... popularized and defended by the
neocon media shills...
And, oh, get this, her corporate media hyped Jan 2006 "Diary of
a Lost Girl" has the MKULTRA mind control transformation symbol of
the butterfly on its cover very prominently. Is that a little inside
joke of the arrogant and powerful in on "Project Boof"?
Learn below of her annoying "loose cannon" admittals on that
website of hers (or is it), where she says she is taking off from
U.S. army bases at 4 a.m. in the morning", etc., etc., though can you
believe that either?
Boof is just the sort of thing that sounds tailor made to seed
ethnic dissention and useful divide and conquer of Sudan/Africa for
the neocons. And its only the neocon press that defends her or has
the "exclusive" stories they say about Boof! That's telling as well.
From Boof's website of shallow stereotypes and encouragement of
ethnic separatism and new agy slogans, we read the hype:
"Men of Sudan are hardworking, ebony-smooth pretty men…they
speak many languages and know much about their past greatness, but
they suffer the humiliation of a minority Arab Muslim government that
oppresses the true African peoples."
http://www.kolaboof.com/gallery.htm
so what we have is in this little dreamworld the:
hardworking
smooth
pretty
speak many languages
know much
past greatness
suffer the humiliation
true African
vs.
minority
Arab
Muslim
government
oppress
and we should add in "no longer pro U.S." in the mix of course.
Throwing her text aside for a moment, let's look at her
"biography" that she relates that has curious international child-
adoption trafficking as intimiately a part of it, along with
supposedly a murdered family, as well as her supposed stint of sex
work with the "CIA mind reader" (her MKULTRA handler?) Osama bin
Laden? Others say that OBL was no where near that location though in
1996.
If Boof is MKULTRA, granting some true semblance of an orphan's
life somewhere back there, she certainly has the broken family
background the CIA likes to utilize, though it's hard to verify any
of her claims about herself, though from the people who sponsor and
throw her toward an impressionable public, those puppetmasters are
the ones that have really made Boof, Inc. You'll see what I mean.
I'll go through and highlight with bolded or brackets anything
that I think is interesting. and fill in her "official web story"
with other text from elsehwere.
[She claims] Born on the Nile River in Omdurman, Sudan…Naima
Bint Harith(Kola Boof)
[where did she get this new name? In her autobiography she says
it is based on a combination of Clara Bow and Betty Boop, U.S. silent
film stars, one of them of course just a little drawing. Was her
MKULTRA programming patterned and linked to Boop? In those who have
come out to talk about it, there is a lot of child torture
intersperced with using animated/Disney films and attempts to get the
child to self-identify with the script of the actors in the movie,
then they control the child by playing out the parts in real life
that she was imprinted to believe in as real under duress and torture.]
She says she came to the United States after her parents,
Egyptian archeologist Harith Bin Farouk and his only wife, Jiddi, (a
charcoal Gisi-Waaq of Somalia's Oromo nomads), were murdered in
Kola's presence for having spoken out against slavery and the
oppression of Black Africans under the rule of Sudan's Arab-Islamic
political factions.
[This is said to be unlikely situation and poorly sourced. And
the story is hyped by the very 'high wierdness' elite organizations
like "Freedom House" which has been involved in the international
revolutionary occult movement for years, as the link from the
Wikipedia article on Boof goes to.]
Kola Boof, who was born on March 3, 1972 at 2:14 in the
afternoon, (according to the Government of Sudan birth records), was
put up for adoption by her Egyptian grandmother, Najet Kolbookek,
because the grandmother felt that Kola's skin color was too dark for
inclusion in her father's Arabic family.
[It was through UNICEF she was brought for a short time to
London, England, to live with an Ethiopian family. And just to show
the high wierdness of UNICEF, it's now being run by the Monsanto
connected lawyer who was the U.S. Sec of Agriculture, Ann Vedeman.
And previous exec director was tied right into to Morgan
Stanley, who was in the (CIA?) Peace Corps in the early 1960s in
Guatamala, this was a decade after the CIA overthrew the
democratically elected government of Guatamala in 1953-4.
Headquartered in New York City, UNICEF provides long-term
humanitarian and developmental assistance to children and mothers in
developing countries. A voluntarily funded agency, UNICEF relies on
contributions from governments and private donors. Its programmes
emphasize developing community-level services to promote the health
and well-being of children. [Is this "community level service,"
flying orphan Sudanese children to London, for adoption? Why snatch
Boof? Did UNICEF do this often?]
Following the reaching of term limits by Executive Director of
UNICEF Carol Bellamy, former United States Secretary of Agriculture
Ann Veneman [with her Monsanto connections] took control of the
organization in May 2005...
And Carol Bellamy, previously in charge of UNICEF could have
U.S. intel connections with this background: "During her tenure, she
doubled UNICEF's resources from roughly $800 million in 1994 to more
than $1.8 billion in 2004. Prior to leading UNICEF, Ms. Bellamy was
the director of the Peace Corps from 1993 to 1995. She was the first
person who has been both a volunteer for the organization and its
director. She was a Peace Corps volunteer in Guatemala from 1963 to
1965. She was highly successful in business and politics. She was a
Managing Director at Bear Stearns & Co. from 1990 to 1993, a
Principal at Morgan Stanley from 1986 to 1990, and an associate in
the New York law firm of Cravath, Swaine & Moore from 1968 to 1971.
In 1990 this woman was associated with Mario Cuomo.

The UNICEF term of office for executive officer surprisingly
ends on May Day, founding day of the Illuminati in 1776. Just a
coincidence that new blood comes in on May day in these international
organizations, Just a coincidence it may covertly follow a ritual
calendar.
Before the Morgan Stanleyite, attempting to get back to Boof era
UNICEF, there was
James P. Grant (1922 - 1995) became UNICEF's third Executive
Director in January 1980.
Grant was the son of an internationally recognized public health
specialist based in Asia. He had worked for UN Relief and
Rehabilitation Administration in China after World War II, and then
with the US International Co-operation Administration, where he was
appointed Deputy Director in 1958. After working briefly at the US
Department of State during the Kennedy Administration, he served with
the [CIA filled] US Agency for International Development during the
1960s. In 1969, he became the first head of the Overseas Development
Council, a private 'think tank' he founded in Washington, D.C., where
he worked until becoming UNICEF's Executive Director in 1980.
OK, here's the full list of directors, this was rather hard to
find actually.
The previous Executive Directors are:
1. Maurice Pate (1945–65)
2. Henry Labouisse (1965–80)
3. James P. Grant (1980–95)
4. Carol Bellamy (1995–2005)
5. Ann Veneman (2005-)
So it would be under Henry Labouisse.
Henry Richardson Labouisse, Jr. (February 11, 1904 - March 25,
1987). Son of Henry Richardson, Sr., and Frances Devereux [THIS IS A
MAJOR OCCULT BLOODLINE NAME] (Huger), he was the director of the
United Nations Children's Fund for fifteen years. He was also a
member of the United States Council on Foreign Relations. He married
Elizabeth Scriven Clark on June 29, 1935. A lawyer, he was United
States Ambassador to France 1952-1954, as well as US United States
Ambassador to Greece 1962-1965. The Labouisse Prize is in his honor.
An Anglican of Louisiana, he married Eve Curie, nine years after
Clark died, in 1954.
His second wife, Ève Denise Curie Labouisse (born December 6,
1904 in Paris) is a U.S. (French-born) author and writer. She is the
second daughter of Marie and Pierre Curie and has written an
acclaimed biography of her mother, "Madame Curie." After the defeat
of France in 1940, Eve Curie moved to England and worked for the
Allied and Free French causes during the rest of the war. In 1945 Eve
Curie published "Journey Among Warriors," a chronicle of her travel
to the fronts of World War II. She was appointed Special Adviser to
the Secretary General of NATO in 1952 and served on NATO's
International Staff until she and Henry Richardson Labouisse, Jr.
were married in 1954. Mr. Labouisse served for fifteen years as
Executive Director of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).
In the previous generation, of his first wife:
Robert Sterling Clark was born in New York City on June 25,
1877, the son of Alfred Corning and Elizabeth Scriven Clark. An heir
to the Singer sewing machine fortune (his grandfather had been Isaac
Singer's business partner), he also inherited from his father a
lively interest in art collecting. In 1899 Clark graduated from
[SKULL AND BONES OWNED SUBSECTION AT] Yale University's Sheffield
Scientific School with a degree in engineering. [However, he is not
Skull and Bones though there are numerous other Clarks who are.] He
then entered the United States Army, which sent him to Manila and
also to China, where he helped to suppress the Boxer Rebellion. In
July 1900 his courageous and distinguished participation in the
capture of Tientsin earned him the commission of first lieutenant,
and Clark subsequently took part in the siege and capture of Peking
(Beijing). Clark spent the next two years in Washington before
returning to Peking in 1903. In 1905, he traveled to the West Indies
and began preparations for an ambitious undertaking: an expedition to
a remote area of northern China. Under Clark's leadership an
expedition of thirty-six men carried out zoological and ethnological
research and made the first map of a little-known area of China
between 1908 and 1909. This expedition came to an abrupt end,
however, when the party's Indian surveyor and interpreter, Hazrat
Ali, was killed by the Chinese. Clark returned to the United States
and published a vivid account of the day-to-day experiences of the
expedition together with its scientific results: Through Shên-kan:
The Account of the Clark Expedition in North China, 1908-1909, by
Robert Sterling Clark and Arthur de C. Sowerby, ed. by Major C. H.
Chepmell (London and Leipzig: T. Fisher Unwin, 1912).
The first director was Maurice Pate, who was good friends with
U.S. intellgence devil, Herbert Hoover, Bohemian Grover.
Maurice Pate (1894-1965) was UNICEF's first executive director
from January 1947 until his death in January 1965, a few months
before he was to retire.
Under Pate's leadership, UNICEF grew to be the United Nations's
most famous and respected agency, a world-wide operation providing,
during his administration, food and medical aid for upwards of a
hundred million children. Many people helped: political leaders whose
nations contributed funds, artists who designed UNICEF greeting
cards, school children who collected money at Halloween. But it was
Pate's personal integrity and selflessness that inspired all the
others. Speaking of the United Nations, Dag Hammarskjold said, "The
work of UNICEF is at the heart of the matter -- and at the heart of
UNICEF is Maurice Pate." During the Hungarian uprising [against the
USSR, which the CIA encouraged, and then let them hang] of 1956, when
the government would admit no other U.N. official, Pate went to
Budapest and, after walking the streets in a three-day survey,
dispatched orders for the UNICEF aid he saw was needed. In 1960 he
arrived in Leopoldville soon after the outbreak of the Congo crisis
to provide badly needed food, having been summoned for this mission
by Dag Hammarskjold, from a movie house, only three nights before.
Introducing Pate at a UNICEF dinner, Herbert Hoover called him "the
most efficient human angel I have ever known."
"He has been succeeded by Henry Labouisse, a man eminently
qualified by experience for this task, who was chosen by Maurice Pate,

This is the coterie of people running UNICEF, which supposedly
took Boof away from Egypt to London, if this part of the story is
believable:
On Boof:
Boof was sent to England to live with an Ethiopian family,
[stop the press here: so "Ethiopian British families", the story
goes, used the U.N. to adopt a Sudanese girl from Africa, rejected
her and "gave her back" to adoption in England? ?? Certainly there is
more going on here? Who were these original UK Ethiopian families?
What was their background?]
but they soon rejected the child as well…because they feared she
might be "a witch." They complained that Naima was just "too smart,
too talkative" for a girl child. She was let for adoption again…and
placed this time with an African-American family in Washington,
D.C.'s lower class neighborhood, Anacostia Park.
[So, a lower class DC black family gets it into its collective
head to adopt a young pre-pubescent likely horror stricken Sudanese
female child...from a London agency...Which U.S./U.K. adoption
workers arranged this little transatlantic thing?]
The DC Black Americans welcomed young Naima with open arms...
...
Kola Boof began her career in 1997 when Ethiopian businessman
Russom Damba financed the publication of her stunning poetry
collection, Every Little Bit Hurts. They launched the book in Morocco
and Southern Europe-
[why launch it there? It does, you know, sound suspicious to me.
I can find little else on Damba except this story about him.
Surprisingly, it's the right wing that talks up Boof: FOX News has
"exclusive" popularization of Boof, which may be telling.]
FOX NEWS EXLCUSIVE interview with Kola Boof
Ethiopian publisher Russom Damba confirmed today (Dec. 31st,
2002) that he is reluctantly dropping his most successful author,
outspoken feminist Kola Boof...
And why does the Project Mockingbird U.S. press take it upon
itself to popularize Boof as well:
"In 2002, newspapers around the world, including the New York
Post, Village Voice and Washington Times reported the firebombing of
Boof's Ethiopian publisher, Russom Damba."
Yep, just as I was afraid. Boof is into a whole lot else than
"writing" and her claimsof "having sex with CIA mind readers."
Ms. Boof has been defended publicly by her close friends, former
head of the NAACP Joe Madison, author Derrick Bell, and Nigerian
scholar Chinweizu. Boof [claims to have] lived under government
protection from 2002 to January 2005. [Though the FBI denies this.]
As of 2006, Kola Boof was the highest ranking woman in the Sudanese
People's Liberation Army (SPLA)
Originally called "Agent Nya Miuokda" by her SPLA commanders,
Boof was later dubbed "Agent Queen Kola" and worked spy missions and
channeled weapons to Commanders Athor and Yaka's camps in Buoth,
Waniek and Pariang. That is Boof on herself.
Though "sexism" and political disagreements have at times
strained Boof's relationship with the SPLA (in 2002 they had a
falling out over Boof's glamorous "public" spectacles in the U.S. and
U.K.), Kola Boof remains a member of the SPLA and documented her work
for the organization in her 2006 autobiography, "Diary of a Lost
Girl". Ms. Boof's poem "Chol Apieth" was used to memorialize SPLA
founder/leader John Garang at his state funeral in 2005.
In the last several years, journalists like Bruce Dunne (Post
Journal), Mark Fogarty (Chicago Tribune) [THAT'S THE BILDERBERG/
NEOCON PAPER OF CRIMINAL FLEECER, CANADIAN MR. BLACK, CHICAGO TRIBUNE
SYNDICATES PLAME OUTER WRITERS CLOSE TO RICHARD PERLE..., AND HAS
KISSINGER ON ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS] and Simon Jenkins (Newscorp)
[WHY ALL THE 'CONSERVATIVE RIGHT WING PRESS' DEFENDING BOOF'S
"LEGEND?] were able to "disprove" the claims made by numerous enemies
of Boof...
Who were the right wing reactionary Boof defenders working against?
It says David Hoile, publisher of the Media Monitors website,
who called Boof a "hoax". Then the neocon media defends "Operation
Boof" with huge coverage.
That in itself should tell us that the whole Boof thing is a
public relations event to foment civil war and perhaps U.S. proxy
penetration into several central African states, via dissention of
Boof as one of their agit-prop projects?

This is what made the neocon's mad, and I highlight a bit that I
found telling:
Sudan and the Kola Boof Hoax: "Slavery" Propaganda Exposed
by David Hoile/ESPAC
The Sudanese civil war has generated a vast amount of propaganda
and disinformation. The intervention in Sudan by foreign powers,
especially the United States, and by civil groups with partisan
religious and political motivations, has exacerbated and prolonged a
tragic conflict by the deliberate and cynical manufacture of
blatantly manufactured distortions, lies and hoaxes.
A recent and archetypal example of this process was the
manipulation of the image of Sudan for personal and propaganda
purposes in the campaign surrounding a woman calling herself Kola
Boof. (1) The author of 'Long Train to the Redeeming Sin: Stories of
African Women', Ms Boof's "sudden" appearance on the Internet
"several months ago" was noted by 'The New York Times' in December
2002. (2) Ms Boof came to prominence when she claimed that she had
been made the subject of a Sudanese government fatwa issued by a
Sudanese diplomat in London, Mr Jamal Ibrahim, and Dr Hasan Turabi,
the former speaker of the Sudanese Parliament, allegedly sentencing
her to death for being opposed to the Khartoum government and
blaspheming Islam. Ms Boof claimed that she had been sentenced to be
beheaded. These claims were carried by several media outlets. (3) She
claimed that the fatwa had been issued in September 2002 by the
Sudanese government, and that this had been conveyed to her by the
SPLA, who in turn claimed to have had it confirmed by a Mr Tanzim
Wasti, Mr Ibrahim's secretary and by Islamist activist Sheikh Omar
Bakri.
[It sort of sounds like yet another "and then, sob sob, the
Iraqi soldiers with guns came into the hospital, and I watched them
take the babies out of the incubators, sob sob..," eh?]
On the basis of these and other previous claims Ms Boof quickly
emerged as a darling of the anti-Sudan campaign, and was embraced by
activists such as Joe Madison and Maria Sliwa of "FreeWorldNow". (4)
The 'New York Times' revealed how impressionable [or sucker, let's
just say it] members of African-American society came forward to help
her campaign because of having read her claims as publicised on the
Internet. Demonstrations were held in her name. The Association for
Women's Rights in Development (AWD), for example, arranged
simultaneous demonstrations in New York city, Los Angeles and
Washington-DC on 7 November 2002 to "protest" the "Sept. 26th death
sentence from Sudan ordering that Black womanist writer Kola Boof is
to be beheaded". The AWID protest literature spoke of "our beloved
Queen Kola". (5)
Building on her anti-Khartoum theme, Ms Boof also stated in
interviews for example: "I am a political activist, a soldier in Dr.
John Garang's Sudanese People's Liberation Army". (6) It subsequently
emerged that she had made a number of other interesting claims. She
claimed, for example, that she was the daughter of an Egyptian
archaeologist and a Somalian princess, and that she had lived in
Omdurman, Sudan, until she was 10 or 11, in 1978. Ms Boof claimed
that in 1978 "my parents...were murdered for speaking up against
slavery and the brutish Islamic government of Sudan". (7) She claimed
that "murahleen" tribesmen had killed them in front of her. She
claims that her Egyptian grandmother then put her up for adoption and
that through UNICEF she travelled to London and was taken in by an
Ethiopian family who eventually gave her up because, she said, they
thought she might be a witch. She says she was then adopted by a
black family in Washington-DC in 1980. (8)
Ms Boof also claimed that the Sudan People's Liberation Army was
in existence as early as 1977, and that as a little girl she had
attended SPLA meetings. [However, the organization didn't exist then,
so she had to backtrack its origin date to make it fit with her
"legend."]
The Mundane Truth
Every one of these claims unravelled under examination. The
facts were far less interesting. [Or are they, when the Sudanese
Ambassasor takes time to "counter" Project Boof?] Mr Jamal Ibrahim,
the deputy chief of mission at the Sudanese embassy in Britain, wrote
an article critical of Ms Boof and claims that she had previously
made, an article published in 'Al- Sharq Al-Awsat' in September 2002.
In this article he criticised her "falsehood and dishonesty" in
previous claims. Ms Boof subsequently claimed [and spun] that this
article was in fact a fatwa, inaccurately stating that fatwa is "a
contract for assassination". (9)
Unlike Ms Boof, 'The New York Times' took the trouble to confirm
the claims made to her by the SPLA in London. The newspaper spoke to
Sheikh Omar Bakri, a senior judge of the Islamic sharia court in
London, and someone noted for his forthright views. Ms Boof claimed
that Bakri had been party to the fatwa. He stated that "nobody issued
a fatwa against Kola Boof". (10) The Islamic judge went on to state:
"I know she was criticized by a Muslim official in London, but he
isn't in a position to issue a fatwa."
This was confirmed by Mr Ibrahim himself, who said the claim was
"bizarre and baseless" and that: "My own view is that she wants to
make use of this to help her in selling her books. It is a bizarre
exercise in public relations." (11) Mr Ibrahim did criticise Ms Boof
in his article, and there would appear to be considerable grounds for
legitimate criticism, but as 'The New York Times' observed "criticism
isn't the same as a fatwa". It would appear that the SPLA in London
deliberately misrepresented the issue.
Unraveling the Lies
Ms Boof's claims about her early life are similarly flawed. She
alleged that murahleen tribesmen killed her parents in Omdurman.
These horsemen are only found in southern Kordofan, several hundred
miles away from Omdurman. It is the equivalent in American terms of
being attacked in a Washington-DC suburb by a band of Oklahoma
cattlemen. She also claimed that the SPLA were in existence in 1977.
It is also a simple matter of record that the SPLA was founded only
in late 1983. (12) Ms Boof's claim that her father was murdered in
1978 for speaking "up against...the brutish Islamic government of
Sudan" similarly jars with reality. In 1978 Sudan was resolutely
secular, governed by President Jaafar Nimeiri, a close American ally
whose government was one of the largest recipients of international
American economic and military assistance. The present Islamic
government in Sudan only came to power in 1989.
Ms Boof made a number of other claims about herself. In August
2002, she claimed to have been shot at outside Los Angeles by Arab
Muslim gunmen, and that she shot back. Boof further claimed to be
under FBI protection. The 'New York Times' reported that the FBI "had
no knowledge of Ms. Boof". (13)
Ms Boof was also said by 'The New York Times' to have "told
flamboyant stories about her life in Egypt and Morocco, where, she
said she was a B-movie actress [Betty Boop? Clara Bow patterning
wearing through fantasy/reality mix of an MKULTRA?] and a high level
prostitute, operating in luxury hotels..." It was during this time in
Morocco [where she indeed may have been a high level MKULTRA
prostitute] that Ms Boof also [threw in and] claimed to have had an
affair with Osama bin Laden in 1996. She elaborated on this alleged
affair in a January 2003 statement when she claimed that it was a
four month sexual relationship in Morocco. She had met bin Laden in a
Senegalese restaurant "which was the only place in Marrakech where
they knew how to cook lion's meat" (one of her "favorite" dishes).
She claimed that she subsequently became "Osama's mistress" and
that she had "lounged about in silk and diamonds". (14) One of the
most watched men in the world, there is no record whatsoever of bin
Laden being in Morocco in 1996.
[THIS IS REALLY INTERESTING THAT PROJECT BOOF IS THROWING IN
EVEN PRO-ISRAELI PROPOGANDA]
Boof has also made other jarring claims, speaking, for example,
about "rich Palestinians who have black women slaves working in their
kitchens, their tongues cut out of their heads." (15)
Ms Boof's somewhat elaborate claims began to be actively
challenged by the end of 2002. The 'New York Times' examined her
allegations in some depth. (16) In an interview with the newspaper,
Ms Boof admitted to being manipulative: "I can't deny that I'm a
conniving person...I have to manipulate the system, and I don't mind
if you publish that..." The newspaper discredited the fatwa claim. Ms
Boof was dropped by her publisher at the end of 2002. And, despite
having been warmly embraced and extensively publicised by the anti-
Sudan lobby within the United States and elsewhere, Ms Boof's claims
soon became even too outrageous for all but the diehard fringe.
The SPLA has distanced itself from Ms Boof. The 'New York Times'
reported that the SPLA "embraced her and then backed away, as Ms.
Boof's personal, if not literary credentials have been called into
question [and moreover, they probabaly caught on she was a U.S. plant
in their organization]."
Deng Ajak, secretary-general of the anti-government Sudan
Commission for Human Rights, stated that he was initially supportive
of Ms Boof "but when she said in one of her own e-mails to me that
she had a brief encounter of dating Osama bin Laden, I said to my
colleagues that we need to pull the plug on this one".
He stated that "This could be one of the most impressively spun
and choreographed pieces of fiction that one could imagine".
Nevertheless, Ms Boof claimed that "the Southern Blacks of my
homeland" have accorded her the title of "Queen Kola". (17)
The 'New York Times' reported that Ms Silwa [the other
organization that originally fanned the flames around Project Boof
who was seemingly taken in] has also "distanced" herself from Kola
Boof's claims, quoting her as stating: "I don't think it behooves our
human rights interest to connect ourselves with someone who is
inconsistent and can't prove her identity." (18) [However,] Joe
Madison [of NAACP] continues to publicise Ms Boof.
[Another odd point, is that Boof's PR tour seems to be
coordinated from U.S. military bases: "Here I am on the Air Force
Helicopter that transported me from a base in Virginia to Washington
D.C. at 4 a.m. on Friday, August 27th...so that I could make my very
first Public Appearance at the Sudanese Embassy."
http://www.kolaboof.com/booktour2.htm
[What, with throwing in anti-Palistinian propoganda into the
whole Boof campaign, and her flying in the dark from U.S. military
bases at 4 a.m., Boof is really just a U.S. psyops operation. For her
to carry on like this, blathering away mixing fantasy/reality, she
may indeed be mind controlled.]
Conclusion
Ms Boof and her claims provide a clear example of how patently
false and self-serving lies about Sudan have been accepted at face
value and publicised by the anti-Sudan industry. She has sold more of
her books as a result of these claims. Ms Boof has deliberately
sought publicity, both personal and commercial on the basis of these
assertions.
The pattern is a sad one. Outrageous claims are manufactured and
disseminated widely. Eventually allegations are exposed as either
exaggerated or utterly groundless, or collapse in the face of their
own absurdity and self-contradictions. All but the most bigoted or
partisan of their disseminators retreat into a discrete silence - but
never have the honesty or integrity to admit their complicity in a
hoax, or to publicise the falsity of their previous articles. The
miasma of defamatory claims against Sudan is once again added to, and
only a short time elapses before yet another hoax or lie is launched
and credulously disseminated by a media that never seems to learn the
lessons of its previous blunders.
[Conclusion? U.S. wants to remove the Muslim government of Sudan
that came in in 1989 and took away their CIA/USAID proxy controlled
government there. Boof is part of this attempt to "get back the
Sudan" for the U.S. empire]
Notes:
1. There appears to be some doubt as to her original name. On
one of her websites, she says that her name is Naima Bint Harith
("The Woman is Dangerous: Biography of Kola Boof", at http://
www.kolaboof.com/dangerous.htm). On another of her websites, she
gives her name as "Naima Alu Kolbookek "("Kola Boof", at http://
authors.aalbc.com/kola_boof.htm). In an interview with 'The New York
Times' she states that her given name is Naima Bahri (Julie Salmon,
"Mystery Enshrouds Kola Boof, Writer and Internet Persona", 'The New
York Times', 11 December 2002). [WTF?] In her 2003 book, 'Diary of a
Lost Girl', Ms Boof says that she calls herself Kola Boof "in honour
of Clara Bow and Betty Boop - I'm a silent movie buff, you
see" (http://authors.aalbc.com/kola_boof.htm).

4. Madison, for example, provided Ms Boof with considerable
coverage on his radio program, a program already noted for its anti-
Sudanese propaganda.

9. The 'New York Times' correctly pointed out that far from
being a murder contract, a fatwa "is a juristic opinion issued by a
Muslim scholar to address a specific problem, that can be related to
political, economic or social issues", ("Mystery Enshrouds Kola Boof,
Writer and Internet Persona", 'The New York Times', 11 December 2002).
