President Omar Al Bashir’s call for national dialogue has recognized all facets of Sudanese including political parties, civil organizations and armed groups.

Following the initiative announced Last January, Al Bashir held a political roundtable in Khartoum last April with the participation of 83 political parties.

The Sudanese government is certain that efforts to resolve internal conflicts and critical issues should be made by the Sudanese themselves without foreign agenda.

The Darfuri rebel movements, however, have recklessly responded to the initiative tending to put an end to the national issues including ending the civil war, allowing political freedoms, fighting against poverty and revitalizing national identity through negotiations and peaceful solutions.

So far, no single rebel group has embraced the national dialogue, although the presidential call is politically beneficial to the rebels.

The national dialogue is the only way out and the golden opportunity for the rebels to have better position in the future if they succeed to establish political organizations apart from arm holding and insurgency

If the rebel movements have had deep insight and good reading of the future, they should have dispatched their representatives to join the discussion to reach a full consensus.

Outside the country, the National Dialogue did receive backing from the African Union and European Union. The two bodies have invited the rebels to join the discussion.

Moreover, UN special envoy expressed hopes that Sudanese rebel groups would seriously consider taking part in national dialogue.

The envoy made his call in Khartoum with the presidential assistant Ibrahim Ghandour to discuss the national dialogue.

If the rebels continue rejecting the initiative and only opting for guns, they will have hard lesson in the end.

When they see that they're the only ones not participating and risk having no voice at all hopefully they'll see sense.
Also, they'll come under pressure from the other parties that are involved in the process.

As I understand it though, it has a been a very bitter conflict and it is asking a lot to set aside the grievances.
Hopefully it can be done.
