What a lady!!! Some of us talk and just talk. Some of us step up and do. There are countless talkers whom we have never seen do anything except talk trash about this young, yet mature, bright lady. Birtukan Mideksa, however, left the talking to the talkers, and showed us the action. If Ethiopia is to be saved, it will be by her children like Bertukan Mideksa. God Bless Our Country and This Young Lady!!!!!!!!!!

Based on the information from Ethiopia, the returning opposition leaders awaits another round of incarceration. Beleive me this time is going to be a different story and shocking. This is a regime who lost any credibility and its only hope was its relationship with the U.S. The passage of Hr 2003 has put the TPLF regime in difficult position and would go to the very extreme because they will lose nothing anymore. I think Ethiopians have to have their next step in place now than being sorry later. Pick up your guns and let us fight them, men to men.

You must be one of the woyane agents who pretend to be opponents and throw out violent remarks to discredit oppositions as extremists. The good news is people are too smart to fall for such a cheap ploy.

She is VERY courageous lady and I salute her for that. Given the immaturity and extreme intolerance of the Woyanne regime Iam very nervous and worried about her safety. I wish her all the best. I know that political change does not come cheap and at some stage sacrifices would be necessary. I hope Kinijit leadership has plan B in the event Meles starts doing what he does best which is to lock up or murder those who has opposing political views even if those views are expressed through peaceful means.

Although nothing will happen to you, your determination and courage will be our strength.If any thing happen to you that will cost the dictators the worst than ever. All the Ethipian people and peace lovers beside you.We believe their petition will take them to their final destination-Grave. Long live Kinjit

If Meles does anything to any of the legitimate leaders of the people he should be told to his face – when the time comes for his fall down he will not be sent to Zimbabwe.
He will be kept in the deepest dungeon under hard labor joined by his family and his cohorts to pay for all his crime against the Ethiopian people.

Birtukan, you have the full support of the Ethipian people. You inspired each & everyone of us. Your country’s interst came before yours & you sacrified dearly by langushing in prison with your fellow members. I know the future of Ethiopia is bright because of you who gave up your personal interst for your country & people. Well come back home! God bless you & keep you safe!!!

Dear Sister Birtukan and the the whole Kiniit team,
You are our heros and very unusual type of heros. You sacrificed morethan your fair share. I just cant imagine how one can be so brave and selfless in presenting her/him self as sacrificial lamb for others.
Well, it takes a miracle or a hero or both; that was how Mosses librated his people.
Brave men and women wont happen often… but we as a people are called for agony …born to count our losses, a loss that never knows a low point beyond which we cant lose.
I hope we wont loose again & I pray that you will live enough to see the light.
Yohannes Sh.

I was expecting the Addis Ababa city to march to Meskel Adebabayee and all the way down to Bole International Airport to receive the Kinkjit team.May be woyanes will be scared to allow this.It really frustrates me to think that Kinijit’s ability to do their job is under the will of the woyanes.Why not a hero’s welcome back home like we did it here in DC????? For the first time in fifteen years, I had the opportunity to receive a leader from my country with joy and had a group picture taken with the visiting 5-member team.Waw!!!!!!I am just hoping sooner than later I will see either Muluneh or Birtukan or Yacob Haile Mariam or Enginer Gizachew or Dr. Haillu Araya as my Ethiopi’s elected leader.

Well, General Musharaf of Pakistan now realized that being a dictator would not take anybody anywhere; likewise, it is expected that General Musharaf is going to abdicate his commandant and become a civilian.
Well and again, as a civilian he can call for an election and ask for the people to vote for him; but, the truth of the matter is there is no gurantee that he will be elected.
Therefore, where is he heading to? the answer is, he is heading to his downfall and forgotten for good or bad.
Meles Zinawi and his partners-in-crime lost the 2005 election and out of desperation and fear, just like Genenral Musharaf did, the Nazia regime of Meles Naziawi iposed illegal and anti-Ethiopia military curfew on all Ethiopians and sebsequently sent the democratic leaders of the voice of Ethiopia into jail.
Clearly and positively, Meles Naziawi is nervous and in a state of shock learning that this type, General Musharaf is about to be yanked and purged from a brutal dictatorship into a prison.
Meles Naziawi thinks he will be saved from being thrown into jail by putting illegal measures against the democratically elected leaders of Ethiopia and also, he thinks he will be cheating world leaders by telling them unending lies and pretending to be peoples’ elected leader, but the fact is world leaders are now very much aware of his stealthy nature and a pathalogical lier wasted aid money to no avail.
Form the time he emerged out of nakfa cave as number one enemy of Ethiopia to his walking through the path of a brutal dictatorship,clearly and positively he shall kiss his fate, like General Musharaf is about to do.
Ethiopians and their democratically elected leaders are clearly a lifetime partners to achieve the goal of a democratic Ethiopia for centuries to come.
The democratic leaders and Ethiopians are always inseparable.

Everyone should stop his or her wrong doing and help his country since Ethiopia’s future looks dim under Meles rule.When it comes to Birtukan,she is a messanger of Ethiopian people.I wish her good luck!

Thank God, the Ethiopian “LIONESS”, Biirtukan, is back home in her beloved country. She radiates love, freedom and liberty. She is an indispensable asset of the Ethiopian people – and so are the rest of her Kinijit colleagues in the delegation she led to the USA.
God keep and protect these peaceful freedom fighters!!
