In my opinion, the Ethioguardian is the best website. I found an amazing book by an Ethiopian-American writer, Savannah.
The book is called IMOGENE and it is a fantasy about a young adult woman who journeys into her favorite book to escape her abusive-murderous stepfather.

Congratulations Elias!
Why do you succeed where many are failing? You stated it best … due to Ethiopian Review’s clear, consistent, and principled stand on issues.

The biggest problem in Ethiopian politics is that nobody seems to have a clear, consistent and principled stand on issues. The nearest one that comes to mind is Andargachew Tsige, after he escaped from Ethiopia. The next nearest current principled stand is that of Birhanu Nega. Both lose though on the account of their previous non-clear, non-consistent, non-principled stands. Ethiopia has paid dearly for the inconsistence of her politicians. I have been very citical of both before, but the best chance we now have are Andargachew and Birhanu.

Congratulations on a well earned recognition as the Number One Ethiopian website by a large margin. This shows us that the majority of Ethiopians have no animosity towards their Eritrean brothers and sisters, all the past animosity was a result of a well orchestrated disinformation campaign to hoodwink the majority of Ethiopians into believing that there exits a non-ending animosity between them and Eritreans. Ethiopian review destroyed that myth in a very short time. Thank you Mr. Elias Kifle, you are a hero.

Congradulation to Ethiopoian Reveiw for its reletless effort and dedication to serve the truth.

However, I amused and confused how the mouth piece of the Ethno-Fascist of Abay Tigray [Aiga Forum]made to # 17.

There are few simple reasons why Ethiopian review is popular media outlet. It is because of the great contribution Elias Kefle brought to the media. Ethiopian review is the only media outlet where a large number of Eritreans share information with their brothers and sisters of Ethiopians, and this is the only media outlet strongly supports to all Ethiopian freedom fighters and all Ethiopian people regardless of their ethnic background. This is the only website advocates a good partnership with Eritrea and other neighbors. This is the only website that has an opened minded editor and his teams. Ethiopian review is the only media outlet with an editor who strongly engaged in exposing woyane’s deceitful nature. Thus, without question Ethiopian review is number one.
Congratulations to all of you

Elias firsrt and foremost happy new year for you and all your supporters and family.Ethiopian review I congratulate you on your success and for being the one to face harrasment and intimidation by weyane puppets and sold out hodamotches.Elias you have made Weyane”s godfather Sebhat Nega to hide behind curtains somewhere in Adwa dirty bar.Yes indeed when he came to U.S and exposed himself his ignorance and his stupidity and narrow minded tigrayan backwordness you and your collegues where the ones that made the public know and understand the true nature of the un-civilized weyane top leaders that has been presented by the western medias as progressive and honest leaders when in fact Meles and his followers are war lords that run tigrayan militias(agazis)that ae ruling Ethiopia thru coecion,intimidation and corruption.
Elias you personaly went to Humera I admire your courage even though it was risky it shows how much you want to be part of the inner struggle for the freedom and salvation of Ethiopia and Ethiopians.Interviewing President Essayas Afwerki, which seemed absurd for some people opened thousands of Ethiopians to distinguish the difference between shaebia and weyane.A lot of people now know E.P.L.F is an Eritrean nationalist movement that is dedicated to built a nation from scratch by Eritrean sweat,money and blood and no grudge against Ethiopians as a neighboring country and people,While Weyane is exclusively tigrayan organization that is determined to built abay tigrayan empire by exploiting Ethiopians and ethiopian resorurces and leave the majority in dire poverty stricken with diseases and backwordness.
Again happy holidays and new year peace for the people of horn.Hopely mercenary weyane will be buried in his deserved grave and rot in hell.

The terrorist is Meles and Bereket! rather, Dr. Birhanu has been fought for DEMOCRACY AND UNITY and he is one of the greatest icons for bringing democracy in the country. His struggle was for Free Press, election, military, Parlama and improving the economy of the country. Unfortunately, Meles and Bereket are anti democray and they proved their worst leadership by jailining and killing pro democracy people.

Meles and Bereket, please you cannot foolish the US in the name of terrerism to kill democracy in the country. The Americans know what terrorism means!

The Americans, please understand that this is to intimidate other people from fighting for democracy for that country!

What has been proved now is the fight for true democracy (Birhanu) and worst quality of leadeship ( by Meles and Bereket).

Kudos to Ethiopian Review and for me the following medias are working for the ruling minority junta in Addis to destroy the people and dismantle the country namely:
1 Ethiomedia
2 AbugidaInfo
3 Walta Information Center
4 Ethiopian News Agency
5 Aigaforum.com
It is unfortunate that the five medias mentioned above found in the Pandora Box we have ever since 1983EC.

Congratulations, Elias Kifle, for making the Ethiopian Review one of the best and widely read web sites in the world. We are proud of you, Elias, and it will not be too long before your dreams come true – the liberation of Ethiopia and the return of all of us in the diaspora to our beloved country.
