Since when Ethiopia had a genuine nationalist leader who looked after the well being of the Ethiopian people?. And if Ethiopia and Eritrea have good and responsible leaders whom their population can be proud of and Kenyan leaders are stooges of Western masters, then why is it Eritrean and Ethiopian refugees are languishing by their thousands in Kenyan cities and towns while there aren’t Kenyan refugees in either Ethiopia and Eritrea!. How many times have you read Kenyans drowning in the red sea en route to Arab countries out of desperation or dying in the Libyan desert or burnt alive in the run-down slums of South Africa or suffacated inside goods-only commercial containers from Kenya to South Africa via other African countries. How many times any one of you read or heard young and innocent Kenyan girls taken as domestic servants by Arab sheiks in the Middle East and then murdered or physically and emotionally abused. How many avoidable and predictable cycles of famine has world came to attend in Kenya?. How come Eritreans and Ethiopians are fleeing from their countries by the thousands in every direction and are found as refugees in almost every major Western city and town while it could take you years to meet a single Kenyan in the same Western countries unless of course they are respectable students or diplomats. And if and when you find one, you certainly wouldn’t find them working in a parking lot or some other menial job but a respectable well paying professional one. And if Ethiopian leaders are any better than Kenyans, why Meles didn’t accommodate peaceful and civilised political dialogue and settlement as Kenyan leaders did instead of massacring innocent and defenceless civilians in Addis Ababa who only expressed their desire by marching through the streets peacefully?. One can only imagine the scale of massacre if Ethiopians attempted to do the same scale of violence their Kenyan counterparts did in Kenya-but then for centuries Ethiopians used to the kind of abusive and ruthless leaders and wouldn’t mess with them. Mind you, in the post-election Kenyan violence, it was the ordinary Kenyans who murdered one another and not the security forces as was and has been in Ethiopia. In Ethiopia, it is those who are in power who are massacring ordinary Ethiopians and the same can not be said in Kenya.

It is also true that Kenyan standard of living is far far greater than that of Ethiopia and most of their African colleagues.

If this is a representative sample and good reflection of our society’s opinion of our leaders and country, then I guess we deserve the Meles’s and Mingistu’s and others we have been having for centuries and therefore should stop whinings and be happy under their leadership.

When is your turn to whip Ethiomedia?

LOOOOOOOOLLL,
The topic is Kenya’s PM visit to America. And so, what has this got to do with Dictator Hailu’s General Assembly?
Poor Tamene (Hailu’s dog), The entire Ethiopian medias have ignored the assembly and you want to tell about it in “comment sections” of unrelated topic.

BTW, thank you Elias, for the Media black-out on the AAPO Assembly.
Speaking of AAPO, one of the delegates in the “assembly” said “ye Me.E.A.D. sewoch abren megegnetachin betam des blognal”. Meaning, “I am glad to see all AAPO members get together” he said. And another told him that they are kinijit and not AAPO.
It was very very funny.

You deserve it!! And Should shoulder it! A lot will come soon–of who you are.

…..As for the ease with which Elias disrespects, bad mouths and attacks the characters of people he has once praised or professed to respect, my mother would have called such a person sid adeg, balege! Wouldn’t yours?

SID ADEG BALEGE!!!
