This will be the greatest thing the diaspora can deliver to those who lost their beloved ones by the cruel act the gangster Meles Seitanawi. It is very sad that we proud Ethiopians live under full control of a gangster. He kills mothers and childern, and he teases on us. We kicked out the white colonizers but we can’t get rid of this “mezger” who enjoys sucking our freedom, dignity and blood. I feel very ashamed to bow to this criminal in my own land. It is so painful! I just want to have an organized struggle to kick out this blood-sucker. I can’t wait to join!
Well said OBSERVER. Let us all try to be present.
THE QUESTION IS WHO PROVIDED THE GUNS AND THE BULLETS TO KILL UNARMED CIVILIANS??
WHO IS PROVIDING HEROINE TO KILL THE SURVIVERS OF THAT MASSACRE OF 2005?
WHO DOES MELES WORK CLOSELY WITH ,IN MILITARY AFFAIRS SO THEY CAN BRING GUNS AND DRUGS WITHOUT GOING THROUGH THE SECURITY CHECK?
WHO IS ORCHASTRATING THIS GENOCIDE WITH PRIME GENOCIDER MELES?
MELES IS NOT ALONE IN THIS AND THE MASSACRE IS NOT OVER WITH AS LONG AS THE SURVIVERS ARE ALIVE TO TELL THE STORY.
