remembering the past to go forward

do ur own spell check

ethiopian politcs divides families apart. drives friends apart. divides one ethnic from another ethnic also called zare in amharic, which simply mean bloodline. for the past 3000 or some number of years the ethiopian politics habe been the ruling of the country not in the form of western democratic way, but in ethiopian democratic way, until mengistu hailemariam was introduced to the game. one thing that makes him a unique leader in ethiopia is that he has no alliance with one zare or another. he was our first what some call westernized democracy beginning. he formed no alliance with the amhara or with the tigre or with the oromo. he wanted to unite ethiopia and lead us to prosperity.

in the past power was being shared between the two houses, the Amaras and the tigres. the amaras having the longest governing time. power was not transfered as easily as possible. but when one rule, the other bow down and accepted the orders. however when the ruling becomes weak and abusive, rebellion will coem along and chnage the ruling house. in such a way ethiopia lived relatively peacefully until mengistu. mengistu was not from either houses. eventhough he was a well broomed amara, he also has blood line from the southern part of ethiopia. which is why i believe he didnt trust either side. he failled to chose side, he failed to rule. if he choose side, he would have survived, not that i am saying its choosing side is good or bad, but the simple fact that his years on the ruling chair would have been longer than 17 years that were spent in war, both in the front porch and in the back yard of the country.

what happen was, what was expected. ethiopia has fedualtic democatic history. the educated especially were not in th emood to let everything of their past and join this ned socialism/comminism/bullistism propaganda. with the help of our enemies, once upon a time, bos from the north, also called eritreans, started waging their war from the heart of the headquarters, from addis abeba. key shiber and nache shiber filled the street of addis. while another bloodshade was flooding the other side of ethiopia. the latter one being fought with the real enemies of ethiopia.

eventhough ethiopia had teh greates chnace to move forward we were unable to because we, and yes i said we, were not fit yet to the west democartic ideas. we are still running the country in our own ways, same as the rest of africa, burma, pakistan, korea, cuba and most of the counties around the world. in recent years howver the goverment in ethiopia has become ruthless in theri actions. they have lost their mind and are running like crazy dogs, trting to biker a fight with anybody. they ave arrested the woman that was running for candidacy as if her actiosn were a crime. they killed street protesters of the elction in broad day light. they jailed not only the supporters but also the candidates until they apologized for joining the race.its really annoying when the west seems sleep while the whole thing goes down infront of the american and british embassy. i never thought especially the latter would miss this massacare of innocent lives since they have an embassy as big as a small town in the middle of the fucken capital city. china has human right issues, however compared to this, the chinese goverment is the most righteous. hell compared to this iraq was free as a bird. i am writing his not to beg for help from the west. we never did, and we never will. y? coz a free man has to fight his own wars. if u can, stop helping meles, by doing that you will save your tax payers money and break the back bone of a bully that thinks the world is slpeeing. he can not form an alliance with the chinese or russian because because he got nothing they want, unless of course if u have any interest in minerals and oil. i like the ethiopian goverment but it has passed on its time to compromise with the people who put him on power. you know something is terribly when one man is leading a country of 80 million for almost 20 years. is that democracy or tyranny?

feminist movement? wtf is it?

i wonder sometime about the laws and retarded feminist movements, that goes on in the west, which are also becoming very contagious in the other parts of the world. i belive God created adam and eve at the same time. i dont think eve was created from adams body, it might even be the other way around. i also belive we are equallly created, both man and woman. no body is more important than the other.
in the past, woman have been subjected to awful stff especially in the past. they have been pretty mch enslaved. they were not able to vote until the 1960's, their crime, being a woman. now we have feminist movements all over the country and are trying to preven whatg happen in the past from happening again. which is really great, because an apple doesnt fall too far from the tree. however at the same time this feminist ideologies are driving man and woman apart eveyday. its very easy to label one as sexiest, wife beater, anti woman for a simple joke. i hate the fact that i have to watch every little thing i say for the simple reason that some other guy have taken a shit on his mom or sisters. someone might read this and say wtf is he talkin about, the truth to the matter is i dont know either. i wish i do. what i know is the feminist women should take chill pill and take it easy, unless if they all gonna be lesbians...hahaha

what is amara/amhara?

one thing i hate is to hide behin a keyboard and say things that one wont say in public. that males me think that we are less and less free from our mental slavery to express our feelings about the politics or the other things we deeply care about in the 21st century. when it comes politics many people have died, may have disappeared many have been beaten and mnay ore are still in prison in the modern day Ethiopia. so its understandable not to divulge senstitive info around people you dont trust or know.
however when it comes to other ideological, not necceserly political things. one need to be open with the public and also with fam, since that will not get them punished. as i see it in the ethiopian disabora community people are very silent about who they are. its almost like they dont want to be known. few amaras are also in the verge of breakaway. i met one amara man and he told me he is gojjame and amara means little to him. i met another on fb, he told me amara is a political thing. well let us say it is. how do we all amaras speak amarigna? or share very similar culture? same as the oromos who are disperesed all over ethiopia we are the same, we are one, we were one.

if one is not open of who they are their children will be totally lost and their grandchild will be disconnected from their roots. african americans or american blacks are disconnected from their roots and they will always be, thanks to colombus and plntation owners, do we have to be lost?

is thereis one thing that i care to do in Ethiopian politics is to unite the amara, i dont like the sound of amhara, base. we are the most educated and also the most gullible human beings on the plant. that is after south Africans and the aborigines in australia, i heard these people are also very 'other trusting' beings. however the weyane maggots are continually trying to divide the amara people, by saying you are gondere, you are gojjame, you are welloye, or you are shewa amhara. it saddens me that the amhara people cant stand with their own two feet and say no, i know who i am, and you cant tell me shit. if things continue as such, they could even make us fight each other and kill each other for small piece of bread. if we are trying to save ethiopia we have to save ourself first. first thing is first all the amara people have to come together and discuss the way we could work together. we have to work on our commonn grounds but also appreciate our differences.

for the sake of survival the sooner we work together, apprecuate our differences, have a common goal, have a common enemey we shall prevail. if not we will always fail.

working for myself

It is interesting to live a life, which is filled with day time jobs and night time sleepings. things after some time become so dejavue like that we dont even think of them as part of our lifes. people come people go, checks come checks go. day come night follows...the list goes on. its my treu intention in the due time to not find a job but creat a job where i could get rich doin. some people might take that as a ckiche but i have been waiting for the time and situation, just to do that. i am not in love withmoney, but i am in love with doing what i feel ike doing and supporting me and my self for now, may be a family will follow later. for some time girls have been my number one priority, unfortunately. now i come to realize girls are as stupid as i am an dont really know what they doing, until a rich guy come along and lavishes them with gifts and basically buy them off the market. its almost like ebay, the highest bidder takes it all, if done in due time. now i have come aback to my mind and decided to chnage my course. i wonder why i wake up every morning and decided to do the same thing that i did yesteday which wasnt the mpst enjoyable thing to do. i wonder if after sometime i will be able to be the boss of me, with out anybody telling me or you the reader (whome i forgot about thus far) what to do or not to do. y do we feel as though we live in a box, whihc is why i am building me a gojjo bate. jokes aside, i think 25 years is enough for one to realize that weather you do the right thing or the wrong thing, life goes on. as i said, i am not in love with money, but i am in love working for myself. if you found some speeling problems on this page, please feel free to do speel check in ur own time.

ETHIOPIAN ELECTION WAS VERY VERY GAY....BUT SOME PPL HAVE THE GUT TO SAY OTHERWISE....WOW

By Alemayehu G. Mariam

For the past year, I have been predicting that the 2010 Ethiopian “election” will prove to be a sham, a travesty of democracy and a mockery and caricature of democratic elections.[2] Without my literary and rhetorical flourish, that is now the exact conclusion of the international election observers. The “Preliminary Statement” of the European Union Election Observation Mission- Ethiopia 2010 stated: “The electoral process fell short of certain international commitments, notably regarding the transparency of the process and the lack of a level playing field for all contesting parties.” The White House issued a statement expressing “concern that international observers found that the elections fell short of international commitments. We are disappointed that U.S. Embassy officials were denied accreditation and the opportunity to travel outside of the capital on Election Day to observe the voting.” Johnnie Carson, the Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs in the State Department told the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee that “we note with some degree of remorse that the elections were not up to international standards… The [Ethiopian] government has taken clear and decisive steps that would ensure that it would garner an electoral victory.” Even Herman Cohen, the former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State who served as “mediator” in the so-called May 1991 London Peace Talks which resulted in the establishment of the Zenawi regime decried the outcome: “This time opposition media and opposition groups were not given fair time on the media and opposition media tends to be suppressed and in that sense I don’t think it was a fair election.”

Professor Al is teaching to those who are willing to learn. He is not paid for educating us, he is doing it out of the love of Ethiopians and his Mother land. Those who criticize him are jealous and unable to digest what he is writing about...
Thank God for the genius Professor Alemayehu Gebre Mariam and many others who are working tirelessly like him to librate Ethiopia from tyranny.

Well said Extraterestrial! I also stoped reading after the first few lines. This guy has nothing productive to contribute. I admire his literary skill. But as he said, he is the one trying to put a glossy lipistic on an ugly mouth. You don't hear his name mentioned in any thing phillantropic or doing anything positive for the good of the country he so pretends to care for. I am yet to hear any NGO or fund raising he spear headed to alleviate the life of our people. He is a big mouth and talks too much. The Meles he is despising day and night is changing Ethiopia for good. Al Mariam-please do something worthwhile for your fellow countrymen or just shut the UP!.......NOTE THIS VISITOR DID NOT EVEN READ WHAT THE AUTHOR WROTE AND IF IT IS A FEMALE, SHE HAS A TIGRE NAME

AMHARA vs eritrea

I learbed to my surprise that the Amhara nation is still in the sleeping mood. teh gonderas are united, the gojjames are united, the wellos are united the shewa are united however we have fallen back to the time beforeAste Tewdros. We dont even like the name Amhara...hence i coined the word United Amhara, ande amhara.....if we unite we could do more. even though we have differences, i think those differences only make us much much more stronger than the rulig party. asking to participate in ethiopian politics is not unatural.....its our fair share, we are only taking whats is ours....so dont be afraid to take whats urs, coz i am not.

history repeats itself, lets read what happened in the past, coz the past holds all the keys we need to open the future doors. our failure to read and comprehend those stories have lead us to be where we are today. study scince, do sport, so music, be pente, be muslim, be prostitute, be student, be female, be old be disabled...however if u dont know what happened in the past u r living in ur dream, since u cant take an educated guess on ur own future. y i said all this...to make one point....eritrea is the mortal enemey of Ethiopia, by any means necessery we should stay divided. lets look history, eritrea has fought against us in the battle of adwa, then during hailesellssie when itlay cam eback they have fouhgt against us. then again during dergu, they have fought against us. they are the ones that built the so called EHAPA, which destroyed derge from the inside out, also lead to the killing of many innocent ethiopians students who knew nothing about politics but were thrown in to the fire....if i see any ehapa on the streets i have no respect for them for they have sold us out WITH OUT THEIR KNOWLEDGE. its better when somebody fight u for a purpose, but these students were mere objects for the liberation of eritrea. finally to get ack to my point, eritrea has fought against us at "zemecha sehay gebat" bademe and shiraro. WHAT ELSE DO U WANT TO KNOW? eritrea BAD.

am back

I am back after a long break.....finished school, looking for some more schooling. yesterday was ethiopian election day, unfortunately i feel bad since i didnt contribute anything for the future of ethiopia while my brothers and sisters have died and cried. The whole world sat by and watched the election as if some kind of bollywood movie. after all though, the only man or woman that will liberate ethiopia are ethiopians. I belive meles is a better of the two evils right now, hence why most of the The United Amharas are sitting by as the election is coming to the end. However kiskesa, and information flow to the common ethiopians should start now to get a better fight on the next term.

Demographic Anarchy?

Ask five Ethiopians the religious composition of their country you will most likely get six points of disagreement. Demographic data have become the means for locking others into an inferior position and, conversely, accord oneself a dominant status even when the facts militate against the assertion. Thus is perpetuated a jaundiced view of self and society before the watching world.

Some don’t bother to acknowledge the presence of a sizable Christian population (at least 10 million) outside the mainstream Orthodox Church. “In relation to religion,” says one presenter, “the population constitute 51% Orthodox Christian, 33% Islam and the rest 16% are other religious sects.” [Italics added]

Those who engage in numbers game are in the main educated and harbor a political and cultural agenda. The majority simply echoes figures that suit its taste. Is it any wonder then that we continually fail to comprehend or adequately address our enduring dilemma because we are in permanent denial or choose to live in a world based on illusions?

Expatriates are not immune to bending facts either. Some simply pick information that best support the story line they write on. “Islamic fundamentalists are on the rise” shout the fear mongering; others make similar statements to raise funds or take a simplistic approach to a very complex situation. Few more have not the interest or the time to check their sources; the fact that their careers are not on the line often means they get away with the crime of degrading a nation’s image.

To be taken seriously, cartographic censuses ought to meet basic international standards. Ironically, few bother to access published census data. Here for your perusal are samples of what we mean by demographic anarchy.

. Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (does not recognize existence of “evangelical” Christians): Muslim (40-50%); Ethiopian Orthodox Christian (35%-40%); animist (12%)

· CIA World Fact book (perhaps one of the most cited sources, until very recently had, Muslim 45%-50%, Ethiopian Orthodox 35%-40%, animist 12%, other 3%-8%. [It is now corrected to Christian 60.8% (Orthodox 50.6%, Protestant 10.2%), Muslim 32.8%, traditional 4.6%, other 1.8% (1994 census)

· Christian Science Monitor (CSM): “the country's Orthodox Christians, …make up just over half of the population …nearly 50 percent Muslims – and others … share neither faith” [Italics added] (September 11, 2007).

· Library of Congress: [Info supplied by Ethiopian government, April 2005]
"No reliabel statistics exist on religion in Ethiopia... Orthodox Christianity and Islam... each constitute perhaps 40 to 45 percent ... Protestants number perhaps 11 million, constituting perhaps 10 percent of the population..."

. U.S. State Department: “An estimated 40 to 45 percent of the population belongs to the Ethiopian Orthodox Church (EOC) …approximately 45 percent of the population is Sunni Muslim. Christian evangelical and Pentecostal groups continue to be the fastest growing groups and constitute an estimated 10 percent of the population.”

. MSN Encarta: "Orthodox Christian (Ethiopian) 36 percent Muslim 30 percent Protestant 14 percent Indigenous beliefs 12 percent Other 8 percent..."

We’ve found the following factors contributed to the persistent confusion.

1. Some simply do not trust information governments put out and prefer rather to quote foreign sources, which often are educated guesses or recycled from similar or even outdated materials.

2. In the case of CSM and others the desire to project fairness appears to have forced them to take “near-half and half” measures.

3. Neighboring countries (Egypt, Sudan, Somalia, Djibouti, and Al Jazeera and Middle Eastern sources) tend to prefer an Islamic majority.

Whether from projections or from actual censuses, it is fair to state that the Christian-Muslim population ratio in Ethiopia is around 2:1.

Arcaris woyane....lol

I read a poem today and felt like the disabora community as much as they say they care about thier place of birth, they do not. I see a lot of communities around the US organizing a fund raiser to the poor and the orphaned. this it is merely to feed them for today. it is plausable derget, however I think more could be done. we think we have done so much but i believe we have done the smallest thing we could possible do only. why? a question that bothers most of, eventhough we are the same ppl who do little.

as i was reading this poem on cyberethiopia.com, i felt the pain of the writet. numeropus times he right out insulted me as a reader, and question my manhood? i felt compelled to do something more than the little. I start wondering where all those underground resistance that were goin on during the Italy, invasion, if you want to call it that, and Dergu's regime???? Is Woyane any better for the country? arent they selling a portion of their own country to the enemeis of ethiopia? arent they killing innocent civilians (sidama, oromo, amhara) these were the MAIN reasons for the falling of this dictatorship. Now I want to ask you the reader, how is it possible for us to contribute to the underground resistance that is being carried over at the nose of the enemy? If there is any underground resistance.

the other thing is why do we still do business with the woyane enterprise, dont we know they can not exist any more if we cut off our business with them. Why cant we shop from other ethnic groups for few months and see what thet would do to dismantle this arcaris goverment.

They got to be other options to schooling

Question? does college really matters for the development a person to a higher level in society? I have been going to school since i rember, leaarning this and that, i am expected to learn, how to read, write, read well, write well, write for english, write in amharic.....the list is never ending.If i could pause for oneminute, is life all about learning? can we be part of the productive part of sociey by not going to school and find other ways to learn about the only thing we would like to know? I have been in school for all of my life thus far, I have been doing what I was doing instictivel, like a baby breathing ones it comes out of the uterus. But does liefe necesserly have to be about just going to stupid school all of ones life? all of my life? whatever it is, I think I should find a better way for my children to come than spend half of their best-life going back to forth to this thing they call school. what really sucks is that, even after going to school and then to college, some ppl actually do not use their degree!!!! so you telling me someone is going to spend all their life, money, and time and not use what they worked for? I will definetly choke that person to death.....open for additionional stories

Life is too short, you are now free to have children

As you have read what I wrote before, I do not refrain from speaking what it is, because if do not do that it will be a crime against humanity. If there is one thing that is crucial to a man is continuing his blood line or ancestor line. Especially in the disabora, this is becoming an exticting culture amongest Ethiopians. Americans are know to adhere anything that got to do with marriage. They prefer to live their lives like the ages fo Garyoshe, having babies here and there, which is why more than 50% of US marriage end up with divorce (according to stastics the different ethinic groups might have different percentage of divorce rates). However we are communal beings that do nto bow down to the theory of the four legged monkey that started walking once it chnages its home from the tree to the savanna land. we, Ethiopians and few believers in the US, belive in a higer order of God and his never lasting kingdom. God has given Adam, Hewan to be his dear friend, wife, and to give him children that will follow in his foot steps.

So I ask myself why do I see Ethiopian men of different ethnicities marriage-less. Why have they become loaners. why do they chase after politics but has nobody to go to after hard day of work and long agreements and disagremnts of East african politics. It makes me sick to see these Ethiopian man, wonder around each day aimlessely like they have been hit by the evil. Please, please form humanitc relationship with someone you know and have some babbies becasue God from above has ordered you to do so.

I feel sorry for the women, who are trying to have babbies atleast before they trun 40 and become childless. I dont think it is necessery for Ethiopian women and men to go back to Ethiopia to find their match in less than 3 month when they are so many beautiful women and hard working men in the disabora. I beleive the best couples are the ones that are created here because they know each other longer and they know the US better, and hence they know their enemeies and friends better. Where as if I go and find an Ethiopian women from Ethiopia it will take her atleast a year to adjust.

I am sure there is a slight problem with the women also, who think they are the most beautiful angels, after comparing themeselves with the less fortunate ones here. In addition, a big problem is their inability to watch their weight. I personally prefer a women that weighs less than me and not too wide for the purposes that are clear to most men. It makes me sick to see all of these beautiful Ethiopian women become older and fatter and become less beautiful as they get older.

Lencho Leta, one of the leading founders of the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF), revealed that the Eritrean government was the most powerful force that opposed a coalition Ethiopian government in 1991 that would have created democracy for the first time. Mr. Lencho Leta was one of the OLF leaders who participated in the transitional developments in Ethiopia after Mengistu was overthrown. According to the OLF founder, the Eritrean government rejected the proposal by OLF and other groups in 1991 to transform the EPRDF partisan army into a coalition Ethiopian army, which would have set up the transition to a democracy for the first time in Ethiopian history. (Audio and translation). In an interview, Mr. Lencho Leta also described Eritrean leader Isayas Afewerki’s fear of allowing a united Ethiopia under democracy and how much influence Isayas had on Meles Zenawi & foreign diplomats in 1991.
It is important that all Ethiopians understand what Mr. Lencho Leta and other OLF leaders are saying. As long is the army is partisan and under the order of Meles Zenawi's party only, there will never be democracy in Ethiopia. Demilitarization of warring political forces in one country is one of the most important factors to build democracy in a country, which also helps speed up development. Today, 17 years after Meles Zenawi and Isayas Afewerki overthrew the one-party Mengistu leadership, they have replaced our country with more one-party dictatorship, which has closed political and economic freedoms and starved more millions of people. Ethiopia under Meles has over 6 million people in malnutrition and suffering in drought, according to the UN. Meanwhile, according to the Global Hunger Index, Eritrea under Isayas Afewerki has the highest proportion of undernourished and starving people in the whole world at 75%. All of this agony of our people imposed by the two dictatorship “governments” will not end until our people are free and democracy is established.
In 2005, CUD/Kinijit became the most democratic and the most popular political party in Ethiopian history during the national election. The main reason why it was popular was its democratic principles including the separation of the military from the Meles ruling party. Kinijit party and its leader Birtukan Mideksa asked dictator Meles Zenawi to accept her 8 points proposal and principles. These 8 points Judge Birtukan Mideksa asked were diverse in nature, including freedom of press, independence of judiciary and independence of the military. But the most important out of these 8 points were the separation of military from Meles Zenawi’s grip. Separation of the military from the ruling party leads to a coalition administration where the military is governed by the constitution and is responsible to the constitution. This in effect, creates the foundation toward peaceful and democratic governance where independent institutions are established.
Even though our people still have a chance to bring democracy to Ethiopia with the leadership of Birtukan Mideksa, it is important that all Ethiopians understand WHO are our friends and WHO are our enemies. It is important that all Ethiopians understand WHO supports democracy and who supports and practices dictatorship. Meles Zenawi and Isayas Afewerki have already showed us their dictatorial rules. But some confused Ethiopians are insulting Kinijit/UDJ and insulting Judge Birtukan Mideksa because she chose a patient and peaceful way to achieve democracy. These CONFUSED Ethiopians think we should work with the one-party dictatorship of Eritrea to bring a multi-party democracy to Ethiopia. These severely confused Ethiopians are telling our people in Ethiopia that we will regain and take back Assab port in Eritrea with the help the Eritrean government itself. These confused Ethiopians are not only out-of-touch from reality, but they are also ignoring history. The OLF founder himself has revealed to the world for the first time what happened during the 1991 transition period. The OLF founder Lencho Leta and other Oromo leaders who support him have risked their reputation many times when they supported peace and Ethiopian unity thru diversity and democracy because they believed in the potential greatness of a democratic & prosperous Ethiopia. Even though we know Dictator Meles Zenawi is a major obstacle to democracy in Ethiopia, Mr. Lencho Leta has told us ONCE AND FOR ALL that the Eritrean government was the first to block our historical opportunity to demilitarize politics and achieve democracy in Ethiopia. These historical anti-Ethiopia actions by president Isayas Afewerki around 17 years ago has made the road to democracy that much longer, that much harder for us. And this… we will never forget!
But now, it is time to stand MORE united behind Birtukan Mideksa and her Kinijit/Andenet opposition party. Let us not miss another historic opportunity to remove tyranny and establish democracy in Ethiopia.

After reading this paper on Nazreth.com, I had a discusting, disturbing feeling for the author and Mr. Lencho. The whole OLF, has to be a stupid joke. Because these bandits are nothing but bunch of worthless bandits who cant stand alone. if you take one boy at a time and tell him to carry out his sick plan for United ethiopia he will shit on his legs. The OLF, as my dear friend at the bottom has said it at the bottom, is power hungry sons of bitches lurching around for the next opportunity to get their ass wipped.

I have known Judge Birtukan since I was in addis in the mid 90' s(EC). She is nothing but a pure Ethiopian. Once my uncle was courting her for marriage. She is indeed beautiful inside and out. A very polite, smart, hardworking Ethiopian women. The Ormos in the diabora are trying very hard, very shameful I must say, to associate her with the OLF camaign for power because her last name I guess resebels oromoic. But what they dont know is she might be at the most only 50% oromo. And i promise you if she is the same women I knew 8 years ago, she will send a bounty head on each of these sons of bitches and get them hanged for what they did in Assossa hospital during the transition period of 91. I must say these OLF maggots are nothing like the good and real oromos that live, eat and inter-marry amongest us, however they were sent to remind us that there might be few of them amonges us. The birth of OLF, TPLF, ELF are the true hinderance for the development of Ethiopian democracy and they must be crashed to allow the birth of UNITED ETHIOPIA.//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Comment from: Mesganaw [Visitor]
I’m really laughing hard and non-stop. OLF made Ethiopians sad, cry, desperate, migrate and dead many times for long time. Who forgets the Assosa massacre in hospital Against the Amharas and Tigres that were lying in hospital beds? They Brutally massacred including pregnant women who were there giving birth and the just born babies. All is with us, recorded. Who was the OLF leader at the time? He was called Lencho Leta (a good and trusted ally to Issayas at the time). What OLF did before 1991 is known and lets move after their hate marriage relationship with TPLF(after 1991). As lencho said here that issayas was always against Ethiopia including during 1991 when OLF was the active member of the so called Ethiopian Transitional govt. During this time, OLF has committed the worst crime against Ethiopia and humanity in the Ethiopian soil since the Invasion of Islam (1529-1543) and since the mass and cruel Galla Migration through the corner of balie to the rest of Ethiopia including the highlands (1550-1850). The Ethnic cleansing, the massacre and taking away all right the people living in the south and other part of the country where OLF was controlling against non Oromos such as the Amharas, Tigres, Gurages and others was/is the crime against humanity Lencho and his entire OLF responsible for. They used the Issayas influence against Ethiopia/meles as an opportunity to destroy Ethiopia as much as they could. Many millions of non Oromo Ethiopians forced to leave the south while escaping the OLF massacre and ethnic cleansing. The crime what OLF has done since 1991 is all there and known by Ethiopians. Why Lencho is exposing himself this way at this time? Because OLF is no longer in a position to affect Ethiopia the way it has done in the past under his leadership. Because the split in the OLF and those in the south are became the driving force to use OLF for their secret/main agenda, which is Islamic ideology. As we know OLF was created by handful protestants after converted by Missionaries in wellega. 95% wellegas are Christians while 99% balie, harar and other places in the south are Islam oromos. Because of being oromo is no longer a reason to unite them but being one of the 3 Oromo groups, or the 28 oromo clans or one of the thousands sub-clans becomes more and more an identity expression and association to the oromos. Somalia has one group, 5 clans and hundreds sub-clans. Almost all of them are Muslim. But, they are fighting based on Clan and sub clans. The oromo present and future will be even worst because of many religion, custom, tradition and other differences that what is going on in Somalia. Group-clan-sub clan. Because of the Split in the OLF and Lencho and his crime groups is no longer relevant. His is now someone from the street has no influence at all. His is doing this because of to get back to the EPRDF. But EPRDF is not stupid as he thinks of. He and his entire OLF must be in jail for the rest of their life with the crime they did against innocent Ethiopians. By the way” The one who did write this piece is a foolish and biased one. This shows how low is the level of some Ethiopians political maturity laying about in a primitive way. Look for instance: “Kinijit party and its leader Birtukan Mideksa asked dictator Meles Zenawi to accept her 8 points proposal and principles.” When was Birtukan Mideksa a leader to Kinijit? When was the 8 point proposal presented and who was at the discussion? “Even though our people still have a chance to bring democracy to Ethiopia with the leadership of Birtukan Mideksa” Birtukan is less relevant to Ethiopia than Sarah plain To America. Mirtukan was an EPRDF child; got education by EPRDF and served EPRDF. I’m not saying she is bad but what is behind the story associating her with an OLF criminal leader lencho Leta? Is because her father name sounds like an Oromo name? She is the innocent and trusted Ethiopian child. And Criminal OLF and others in the name of Oromo need to leave her alone. She knows only Ethiopia. ´The OLF founder himself has revealed to the world for the first time what happened during the 1991 transition period.” Why now? Because he has lost from OLF. He is a street old man no one wants him to be around. He is looking to make a living again with the Ethiopian cost. He is a well known and tested anti Ethiopian and a criminal. “The OLF founder Lencho Leta and other Oromo leaders who support him have risked their reputation many times when they supported peace and Ethiopian unity thru diversity and democracy” hahahah and hahaha the crime they have committed during that time is still there and will be part of the Ethiopian history. “But now, it is time to stand MORE united behind Birtukan Mideksa and her Kinijit/Andenet opposition party. Let us not miss another historic opportunity to remove tyranny and establish democracy in Ethiopia.” Laughable. Ethiopia was saved when EPRDF wiped out the Entire OLF headed by Lencho after years of direct crime against Ethiopians. Ethiopia was saved the second time when EPRDF kicked issayas’s influence out of Ethiopia and put him like a dong knows nothing what to do. If somebody forces me to choose from the two Evils I will choose with no regret Shabia than OLF. Their members are like savage animals giving an impression they are the blood family with the Hutus in Rwanda. The writer to this shit pieces is a silly and ignorant individual. We have to thank nazret for bringing this to us showing how many and what kind ignorant are around us.

Change in your pocket is what matters

Congratulations everybody Barack Obama of Illinois, born from a Kansas women adn a Kenyan Man has won the presidential election. It is my hope and dream that this man will not only impact the socio-economic of this land but also the other around the globe. I hope US will finally stand for justice and freedom, unlike the one in Iraq. The real enemey now is time. How fast can we show the injustice to those who have the power and how fast the meles cadres are getting in the pockets of washington staffers. If anybody in the us does anything after the cadres have their share, then it will be too late and meaningless to try anything.

Who is it?

as i was studying i kept wondering about the book introduction i read yesterday which was writeen in the 30's by an austrian about Ethiopia. i wondered about what he said and the slow but powerfuly way of dividing a country is by putting one ethnic group on top, weather literarly or by simpel words and the others down. he is an anti-semetic and and of course anti-ethiopian estabilishment and writes in the most negative way about the inhabitatnts. my question is how do you hate your enemey even if it is snifing your nose everyday and stabing you in the back if you dont know anything about it??? How could you alo differentiate your enemey from your dear friends? refering to countries and societies instead of an individual.
Because of the slow ethiopoian development, the society is unable to get vital information that could ultimately shown it the realistic world of love, hate, crime, innocence and everything else. however because the society is far behind from gettign this finformation, it will get misinformed and lead a life of blindness about the outside world.

UNITED ethiopia?

was thinking of the idea of the derivation behinfd the names unites dtates, united kingdom, united russia, and said to myself, why is it necessery to say united infront of their names? i thought it might be to remind the speaker that the country is a UNITED land and there is no division amongest the ppl who live there. these might serve as a two edge knife where it reminds the citizzen everyday, every minute and every second he/she spoke of theri country that they are living in a UNITED land, society. that will psychologically prepare them against any sort of divisions and hence force them to stand up against DIVISION, because its the direct opposte of their land.
on the other side of the knife, it protects the land from outsiders negativity. since outsiders are in continuous, non sleeping mode to divide the other country having a name as UNITED will force them to look for someting better to do than trying to divide a UNITED entity.
hence maybe having a UNITED ETHIOPIA, might stop outsiders and insiders continued urge to divide the land. one thing is true no society can speak of being clean from benefiting from another society while in the process of civilization because after all human beings are selfish beings and like to capitalize. I must add that the degree of capitalization some humans have taklen it do differ greatly from slavery, ashker, serf and etc. however these three lower class society have different meanings in different society hence comparing and contrasting each other with other different societies must be done with the out most re-considerations, other wise all the civilized societies we see today will be at each others neck and we will go back to the ice-age.

Pussy picking you

North america is one of the most unique place one can live, I must say after being here almost a decade, with out knowing it. life is good, there are good ppl, there are nasty ppl and there are those who dont give a fuck about anything but themselves. the latter are the direct decedndents of capitalism and imperialism, i think. they have come to learn to live with the system and obey it without judging it so they could get by better.
I laugh when guys my age act as if the are "pimps"..or ladys man...funny, because what they dont really know is the true meaning of it. I was also a misguided person before a couple of sound raising arguments with my higher educated friend. In our small world dictionary, a pimp is someone who got skills picking up a chick he likes, atleast that is how it used to be in the old days. now to the conterary women pick the guys. women eventhogh they seem innocent and submissive in the old days, now it has changed.
hence if the women is picking the guy, as my friend put it, "pussy picking you" you should not be too happy and call yourself a pimp. you were actually pimped by the women.
As an Ethiopina man, have to be honest that girls liking me is one thing, girls trying to talk to me is little too much and kind of turn me off. I let go so many opportunities where i could have got easy pussy but my diginity has let me down and said no. I, personally am more inclined to date a girl more of old fashioned, and conservative.

Note for me

I met a girl today, i must say kind of cute. i ask her if she is ethiopian and she replied she is eritrean! quickly i said you are abesha right? she said yes. i think it is better for us to still use the word abesha despite the negative connetaion it has, which i have written extensively about in my earlier posts. unfortunately, i might have runined our first impression of each other and maybe in the future i will rember to say "are you abesha? before I specify country......yemekatele hasab
