Despite the presence, in Tewfpik, of a British-led force of over one thousand, well-equipped Egyptian soldiers, nothing is being done to combat the depredations of the Dervish forces in that area of the Sudan. The Dervishes, led by Osman Dogma, continue to raid villages within a few hours march of the garrison of Tewfpik. I have visited such villages and seen the price of British and Egyptian inaction. All food stocks are taken, the fit and able-bodied men are impressed into the ranks of the Dervish army, and such women as take the fancy of even the least important of the Emirs are dragged away to a fate that can only be imagined. And what do the British and Egyptian Governments do? Nothing!
How can Britain maintain its position in the World as a Christian country to whom others look for morale guidance when it does nothing to stop the actions of Osman Dogma and his myrmidons? When will the Government take a lead in the fight against the oppression of the Sudanese and aid the Egyptians in their destruction of the barbarous power of Osman Dogma and his like?
