  1. Assta B. Gettu says:

    The unexpected sudden arrest and the quick release of Girma Amare by the reckless agents of Meles Zenawi demonstrate that Meles is nervous and uncomfortable by the mere existence of Kinijit’s office in Addis Ababa, so he wants it to be destroyed and shipped its pieces either to London or Washington. He knows how strong and formidable Kinijit is, and how damaging it will be for Woyanne survival.

    Dear All,

    Why does not Kinijit (CUD) learn that Wayane undrestands and fears only the language of stick/gun, but NEVER peaceful way of politics?

    With the denail of overseas funding and the constant harrasment of peaceful oppositon indicates that the Woyanes will never acquise to peaceful change. So the only choice is to raise arms and fight them both urban ambush Somalia and Iraqi style, as well as funding EPPF, and other legitimately Ethiopian freedom fighters. Meles meant it, when he said, we took power by force and if any Ethiopian want it, they have to take it by force.

    Meles has been killing all his life and he will never give power for fear of prosecution for high crime and murder. This is true for most of his supporters and Woyanes.

    It is unfortunate, however, such violence is the hall mark of the Woyanes and they will never transition to peaceful solutions.

    The Diaspora need to campaign to dry American support and funds at the same time fund the freedom fighters, which like in S.Africa may force the Woyanes at least to sit on a table and agree to some compromise. Now, they have military upper hand they will never accept the legitimate demands of the opposition.

    The sad commentary is the Woyane violent past has already created an untenable situation in Somalia and Oromia, where people fed up with their violence and oppression voted to fight their own tribal and regional war, making a Ethiopia’s unity into question, as they have added fuel to the fire with their article 39 and their plot to make Ethiopia land locked by colluding with Eritrea, based on the promise they have fabricated that Eritrea was a colony, that needed indepedence. Woyanes are a curse and menace to Ethiopia and the region as we have seen in Somalia. Ethiopians need to create coalitions with reasonable people in Somalia, Eritrea (of course not Isias or the Islamists) and others to bring regional stability and peace, most of all peaceful coexistence.

    At the same time people of goodwill and conscience need to make goodwill need to make a new year pledge to help the Ethiopian end their suffering using their intellectual and financial capitial, failure will have severe consequences, including turning Ethiopia into an ethnic bloodbath, as well as an economic basketcase, where survival is increasing becoming impssible with the skyrocketing prices, and the Woyane looting of Ethiopias resources, either through taxation or mere sale of part of it to the Sudan, as part of their scheme to destroy Ethiopia in their plot to build tigre and to reward their local and foreign partners.

    WEYANE’s rigid move against the popular party will push more ethiopians to join the armed struggle to free them selves from those arrogants.

    Woyane may want to make a deal or may already have made a deal with the person they arrested and later released to give them
    informations from Kinjits office. That has been proved in the past. What I am suggesting is Kinijit has to be extremely careful in selecting their staff members. There are many many bugs crawling in to suck blood.
