Sherlock's Fashoda Incident in Sudan
Email List: Sherlock's Fashoda Incident in Sudan Email List

The adventure that Dr. Watson wrote and called "The Fashoda Incident in Sudan" caught my eye. It shows that war was barely avoided between England and France, thanks primarily to Sherlock, who had been in Sudan some years earlier.

You will recall that Sherlock wrote, "Report of a Visit to the Khalifa at Khartoum", for the Foreign Office. The report is attached to this adventure, which I found in the French trunks.

Sherlock went to Sudan during his "Great Hiatus" following the struggle at Reichenbach Falls that fatal day, May 4, 1891. He returned to London three years later on April 5, 1894.

Dr. Watson said in "The Empty House" that Sherlock had been to Khartoum, Mecca, Iran, Tibet and Odessa, ending up in Montpelier, France, where he studied coal derivatives. These French files show he traveled to more places than that.

I worked in the former French Sudan 4 years; 2 years in the Peace Corps, 1 year on a U.S. government contract and 1 year with my TUTT Group — The Universe Think Tank Group.

History shows that in 1898, Britain and France armed forces came close to war in the middle of nowhere in the Sahara Desert. The ruckus was over African colonies, who owned what. British and French armies collided at Fashoda, in southern Sudan. History calls it the "Fashoda Incident".

Adventurer French Captain Jean-Baptiste Marchand raised the French tricolour over a poor Sudanese mud hut village called Fashoda. Britain’s Lord Kitchener stampeded out of Khartoum to Fashoda with a far greater number of troops, so the French withdrew.

At the insistence of his King, Sherlock was the secret go-between for the Khalifa at Khartoum, who had befriended him, Lord Kitchener through the Foreign Office and President de la Republique Felix Faure in Elysee Palace in Paris.

You will recall in "The Final Problem," the French government had engaged Sherlock in an investigation. Elysee Palace hired Sherlock on a number of occasions. Many of these are in the French trunks.

It is a "singular" event of abject stupidity, thanks to a mindless pagan public, misled by lying governments and press, with lazy and cowardly bureaucrats and journalists. These realities and relationships will exist until the end of time. How anybody with any gumption can stay a bureaucrat or journalist very long is beyond me.

The ridiculous fight was over bragging rights to sand and worthless land. Jump 100 years ahead to today, and you will see Sudan recently ended the world's longest running war and maybe the world's stupidest war. There is nothing to fight over in Sudan and there never was.

The world's most gentle people live in the Sudan, the Sudan being in this sense the geographical area that stretches clear across Africa and the lower part of the Sahara, from the Atlantic to the Red Sea.

Slaves, gold, gum Arabic, ostrich feathers and wild animals were some of Sudan's biggest exports down through history. Slaves, yes, real people, oh those poor souls, words can't say enough of their agony. For sure, God's Justice continues to reimburse their holy descendants.

Attached to this adventure is a monograph Sherlock wrote on gold coming out of the western part of Sudan, in what was then known as Guinea. The "guinea", the English gold coin, got its name from this region because much of the gold for that coin came from this region, in what is know Mali, where I worked three years. You can still pick gold nuggets out of the creeks after the rains.

Sudan gold was so plentiful at one time, it traded even up for salt. The gold mining families needed salt to stay alive in such heat. It's fascinating reading, with many historical references.

Sherlock simply said since gold was still plentiful at the time England minted the "guinea", it was without question even more plentiful centuries before. His deduction showed a high probability that gold from Guinea was mixed in with gold used to build the two Lost Arks of the Covenant, presented to Solomon by the Queen of Sheba, gifted at Bethlehem, in King Tut's mask and effects, etc.

Hieroglyphics say the Pharaoh's gold was supplied by the land south and west of Egypt, called Nubia, also called Sudan. More later on his monograph entitled:

"On The High Probability Of The Source and Relationship Of The Gold Of : The Two Lost Arks Of The Covenant, Solomon, The Queen Of Sheba, King Tut, Bethlehem, And The British 'Guinea' Gold Coin".

It was clear to Sherlock that God had kept King Tut's tomb hidden all those years because King Tut's father-in-law, Ikhnaton, is the first in recorded history to recognize monotheism. History's first hymn to one god is from Ikhnaton. Ikhnaton had the stone monotheistic idols defaced with hammers, you can see that today.

King Tut was forced to restore polytheism and was an innocent lamb slain secretly, when only nineteen years old by powerful political priests. King Tut's mummy speaks today; forensics show he received a blow to the back of the head, at an angle that says he may have been sleeping at the time. Blood that collected and coagulated in the contusion at the base of his skull can still be seen and it says it was severe enough that he probably laid in a coma a month or so before he died.

King Tut's wife must have been beautiful, her mother was Nefertiti, history's most glorified beauty in extant art, second only to The Virgin Maid in the House that David built, using gold from Sudan. Without question, Sudanese gold was so blessed enough as to have been seen by the eyes of the Princess Virgin Mary, her spouse Joseph, who became the most powerful husband and foster father ever, and their Child, The Most Innocent Lamb Slain.

Moses and Ramses the Great came less than 100 years after King Tut. Aristotle came 1,000 years after Moses. Moses led the Israelites from Egypt about 1280 BC. Moses was born in the mid 1300's BC and died about 1250 to 1240 BC. It is estimated that the Exodus took place sometime around 1250 to 1280 BC, during the reign of the Pharaoh Ramses II, which archaeology dates to that era. The age ascribed to Moses at the time of his death is 120 years.

Today, Sudan's big exports are cotton and gum Arabic. TUTT Group has a partner in Khartoum, a major Sudanese corporation, dealing in cotton, gum Arabic and general trade, you can see them, just click here: TUTT Sudan

Surprisingly, Sudan is the world's main supplier of gum Arabic.

Gum Arabic is one of the secret ingredients in Coca-Cola. It's in Pepsi, 7 Up, and most all carbonated beverages on earth. It's used in M&M's, look on the wrapper.

Gum Arabic is a resin from the thirsty desert Acacia tree. The two Lost Arks of the Covenant were built using Acacia wood, thus hinting at the True Cross was of Acacia wood, too.

I am one of the world's leading experts on the marketing of gum Arabic. TUTT Group has a web page devoted to gum Arabic, click here: TUTT Gum Arabic

It is the only page in the world we have found that is devoted to gum Arabic marketing. On the page is an email list called TUTT Gum Arabic Email List, which is the world's only email list we can find devoted to marketing gum Arabic.

When you drink a Coke, you are drinking gum Arabic from Sudan. And, I might add, you are probably drinking Iowa corn, since the caramel coloring in Coke comes from corn. The world's largest caramel producer is located in Iowa.

Sudan had the largest market share of the world gum Arabic trade, but now other countries are encroaching on it. The total annual world trade in dollars for gum Arabic is not much, and certainly not worth one person's life out of the millions of Sudanese killed.

Gum Arabic only played a coincidental role in the recent Sudan War. It wasn't even a consideration in "The Fashoda Incident in Sudan" 100 years ago.
