The top leadership of the ruling Tigray Peoples Liberation Front (TPLF) is honoring, for now, Meles Zenawi’s wish to select Berhane GebreKristos as the next party chief and prime minister, Ethiopian Review Intelligence Unit sources reported today. However, the appointment of Berhane, who is a close personal friend of Meles and currently Foreign Minister of State, is expected to face serious challenges from the other TPLF leaders once Meles is out for good, our sources added.
Despite Woyanne propaganda chief Bereket Simon’s blatant lie, Meles is currently in Brussels at St. Luc University Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on the second floor, an eyewitness told Ethiopian Review. Even if he feels better enough to return to Ethiopia, he is done as a leader.
There is also a strong suspicion that Meles in fact has been dead since Sunday, and that the TPLF regime is not announcing his death because they want to buy time until there is an agreement on a new leader.
Meanwhile, yesterday, Meles Zenawi’s wife Azeb Mesfin has obtained an Italian visa, a source in the Italian embassy informed Ethiopian Review. While Bereket Simon, Berhane GebreKristos, Teodros Adhanom and other friends are at Meles’s bedside, why is his wife Azeb traveling to Italy?

How much money did you and your brutal husband stash away in foreign bank accounts that is the first thing I want you to tell us our witch, and evil lady? What kind of a deal did you cut with the TPLF thugs to sell away part of the land in Gondar to be annexed to Tigray province? Didn’t your conscience ever bother you in turning your back on the very people you claimed to be representing? Your crimes are so myriad, that you are drenched with it from your toe to the top of your head. You seem to have found yourself in a quagmire, and nothing can pull you out of it. You just keep wallowing in your own filthy guilt trip, and our brother Elias has no room for some one floozy like you . You and your dying husband are morally, ethically, intellectually beneath him. The cries of Ethiopians have been heard loud and clear.

Sorry to say this. It is evident that many Gondere womens are prone to prostitution during past or present. For them to generate money is prositittion. Not to bash but why is it true? The area I used live in Addis, the prostitutes are Gonderes. Is it a trait or something but then I hear them insulting others that people who worked the lowest of jobs in Addis to feed themselves they used to insult that they are doing the worst kind of job. For example, if someone has a job for cleaning bathroom, I am sure they will bash on him. And many prominent Gonderes also have secret fetish or are promiscuous even if they are married or were married. I am telling you. I don’t know why.

Konjit Sineghiorgis, has a mentality of a prostitute. She worked with the feudal-monarchical government of Haile Selassie, the Socialist-totalitarian government of Derg and tribal-authoritarian- anti Ethiopian government of TPLF. She has no morality, self-esteem and principle. She can be in bed with anyone who keeps her in government payroll and benefits. I am very glad that she lost a high level position with the AU.

And you don’t even have a diploma!
Meles will be remembered for his legacy. But no ethiopian will foregive him for making the great african nation, symbol of freedom and the pride of africa a land locked nation. His demise will be a good beginning for ethiopia to reclaim its ill-possessed ports. All ethiopians will pay the required price
If meles dies Abebe Gelaw will be remembered as a journalist who killed a dictator with his voice. Meles was flying high. He felt invincible and humiliated Birtukan Medeksa and others without understanding that he was human being too. He felt no one can touch him at all and can do whatever he wants to do. However Abebe’s words thought him he was the most hated person. He learned that he was not invincible as he thought. He was humiliated in front of his handlers and future employers. That created anxiety, anger and triggered old sickness. That is the fate of all dictators. Unfortunately they do not learn before it is too late. However meles’s case is unique. He is a person who was consumed by inferiority complex. Such feeling may have roots in history. Tigreans were the most oppressed people. Hailesslassie and Mengistu even Menelik considered them a liability. My understanding is that such kind of treatment created some inferiority complex on the part of the tigreans. I have many tigrean friends. I asked them why they do not like Amharas and Eritreans. They told me because Amharas and Eritreans look down on them. Such kind of feeling is very dangerous. When you have inferiority complex you try to use every means to feel you are equal with others. Do not get me wrong but when I read the comments on Aiga and Tigrai online almost all of them deal with how Eritrea planned to be Singapore and now has nothing. This is a pure example to what I am saying. When Sibhat Nega was asked about Eritrea his response was Tigrai is doing better than Eritrea. We have so many Universities. The whole drama is based on the assumption that if someone is taller than you then you have to cut him down so that you will be the tallest person in the neighborhood. If you cannot do that then do something’s that will give you a peace of mind. One thing is true anyone who does not have the impression that he or she is not less than anyone will not be equal to anyone. It is how the logic works. As to Eritreans no one will take the confidence from them and they are always winners.

You brought interesting point. This is exactly the reason why Ethiopia is in the predicament today because of what happened. Even words can tear flesh which was happening to some ethnic groups and widely accepted. So unless we deal with what happened in the past especially most Amaras deny this, even looking down on others, heck it happens on Ethio sites everywehere! They are repeating their mistakes over and over thus leading to their demise. So if anyond Eritre or Amara better admit and move forward towards unity and equal opportunity for all. It was not as to completely not having equality, it is the systematic acts of Amaras. I am not accusing but they better make amends, admit and move forward if they want this country to move forward. Otherwise they are good leaders when combined with Oromos.

Bilen,
You are talking non-sense, Konjit Sinegiorgis is an amhara who worked for three govurnments and over 70 years old. Get your information right.
Elias,
This is only a good news for toxic diaspora. It’s funny you put a picture as well–good try but don’t fool yourself
an eyewitness told Ethiopian Review. Even if he feels better enough to return to Ethiopia, he is done as a leader AND Meles in fact has been dead since Sunday
It is becoming shabia against TPLF in the TPLF politbureau struggle for power. The majority of TPLF politbureau, of whom the shabia are the top dogs, are blowing the whistle.
cause she want to hide where she want to go. to to Italy is nothing except getting Europian Vias.
once she get it then she can go to Belg. to see her hubby
These people have no common goal as a party. It natural they eat each other in time of chaos. Their only mission as party was to Create Greater TIGRAY( Abay Tigray). When they conquered Ethiopia all the gloves came off, everybody became for himself looting money and killing those who oppose. The first victim was Seye Abrha and his friends. He is the one who lost in race of looting as head of Ethiopian army and the beloved Airline, now he is in crocodile tears for Ethiopia. The rest in the same group start attacking Ethiopia as herd of wild dogs. Meles as their head now being sick caught them when their mouth is full. They are scrambling to save the Tigray ruling no matter what , it is hard to let it go. The sad part of this is they think the are entitled to abuse Ethiopia specially Amara, no kidding. And finally i wish the people of Tigray ok future, i guess the good times have passed. RIP Weyane.
Cheers,
Elias,
Can you put out a call for some surveillance of the hospital grounds and ICU area? These are “VIP” so the activities should be obvious. There must be Ethiopians in that part of the world willing to send us some cell phone snapshots and videos. That’ll turn this dreamlike situation into somewhat tangible reality.
Very important.
It is the greates relief for the oppressed people of Ethiopia. He can go to hell.
Now the Ethiopians must work together and build a democratic Ethiopia under the rule of law. NO more ethnic policy. Ethnic policy must die with zenawi bloody buthcher. NO MORE racism.
Ethiopia Prevails
I think Berehane will continue to screw women in his office (Ethiopian Embassy in Washington DC) and when the women complain about it Ethiopian people will pay compensation in Millons of Dollars for these women. Because of this a special fund must be established for “victims of Berehane’s sexual violence” before he became PrimeMinister. All TPLF members are criminals and murderers.
Where is Solomon Tekalegn who was in love with Zenawi. Is he going to sing another song of love or death?
W/ro Azieb is sex woman and are good in bed.If you look her at interview she is so cute with her “Selemlem) and I heard also she love young girls.
wow! ER must becoming woyane and handlers worst nightmare. No surprising why they are attempting to crush it lately.
Where is Ato Meles Zenawi or is it Legesse Zenawi?
Apparently, there is no simple answer to this rather simple question. At least there should be a simple answer. According to some websites frequented by Ethiopians in the Diaspora, the good dictator has died. The government, on the other hand, is telling us the dictator is a little under the weather and resting peacefully under the watchful eyes of European doctors and some of his loyal partners in crime. I guess Ethiopian doctors and hospitals in Ethiopia are not good enough for Dictator Zenawi. So much for nationalism and national pride!
I am sure an overwhelming majority of the Ethiopian citizenry, for whom life under the brutal regime of dictator Zenawi was an unending nightmare, would like a simple answer that preferably confirms that dictator Zenawi has left this earth and is currently facing the creator whose existence he denies.
What I find surprising in all this is the deafening silence of bankers around the globe. Why is that surprising you might ask. Well, this question unlike the first one raised above has a very simple answer. Money and lots of it. As a student of history and a longtime observer of the behavior of dictators, I can state with certainty that all dictators have one common legacy. Plenty of money hidden in banks at faraway places! Even in a poor country like Ethiopia where the GDP per capita is estimated at $351 and over 80 percent of the nation’s 80 million people live below the poverty line, dictator Zenawi has, according to some reliable sources, accumulated a lot of wealth over the 20-year period he ruled the country with an iron fist.
I am sure there are many vulchers in side TPLF, Meles’s party, who would like to get their hands on this illegally amassed fortune. A certain Azeb Mesfin, I am sure is also interested in putting her manicured fingers on the loot.
So bankers, let’s hear it. Has anyone presented dictator Zenawi’s death certificate in an attempt to claim the absconded wealth that rightly belongs to the Ethiopian people? If not, it is safe to assume that dictator Zenawi is still around at least for now.
Time will tell his whereabouts.

Very good point. This evil guy, if he has passed, all this struggle and stealing he did, only to leave the fortune. This should be lesson for all of us after all, to live with wisom and not greed because you are not going to take your wealth with you. If he was wise person and he could have left it for Ethiopia. Anyways, the money is blood money Ethiopia has no use of it. I am sure more people will die for it, yet they will never take it when they die so in the end, it will end up to the rightful owner.
The concern I have is, is anyone still investigating the whereabouts of our gold? This investigation should not be over at all. Such wealth sitting in the West is the right full owner of ethiopia including all the wealth stolen from past Emperors. What about Lucy? Are we investigating that at all? All these crimes we should be reminded of and where abouts should be traced so that one day Ethiopia will take all her treasures she worked hard for, but not the cursed money given to us as aid. Such money will be fruitful anyways. It should be money earned from purity that will have good result.
Rumors from Tigray indicate that the defence minister, Samora Yunus, may have poisoned Meles Zenawi. Samora is a muslim and he hated Meles, according to reliable sources.

where are G7, UDJ, Andinet, Medrek. ETNC, EPPF ?? they must join hands and create a coalition now just like Kinjit did it. If opposition do not unite now, woyane will rule forever. That is my opinion. It is a ripe time to create a solidarity and bring the forces together.

Me too, I am surprised by all these oppositon groups silence it is because they have nothing to say, the TPLF is sealed from every corner. Have you forgotten? TPLF considers Ethiopians enemies so they won’t spill the beans with what is going on. Still I am surpirsed by the oppositon’s utter silence.
That being said, perhpas if they are working on something, it is good strategy not to spill secrets until they are successful. Talking around did not help them and TPLF used the opposition’s plan and discussion and uses it for its own strategy that is why TPLF is always 3 steps forward than the opposition.
when you mess with Waldeba gedame you will get respond from God. I don’t wish Meles to die as quick as 2 month. I wish him slow suffer die. As he made suffer 85 million for so long.It is a lisson to the others who mess with Ethiopia.
[Lemma] how sullen is that?
I suspect there is a virus in your mind and it needs immediate attention on your part. You need to lower yourself at the feet of the Cross and be reconciled with your maker. You may get bend out of over this comment, but I really think you need to do this and find peace and rest for your soul.
Our grandparents fought gallantly Italian fascists unfortunately we are now colonized by home-grown fascists. Meles is lucky to die before he face justice. I wish he live longer just to visit Kaliti and what it means because several innocent Ethiopians including Eskinder Nega are languishing in the fascist terror chamber.
The fact that TPLF officials have now dmitted that Meles is ill is a good indication that he has dead.
A reply to the comments by Kebreab,in the first place as a true Tigrean,I do not try to read any thing by these people from Aiga forum who are ignorant slaves who turn a blind eye not to see the real Tigreans.I have respect for both Amharans and Eritreans,I like most the Tigreans who are fighting for freedom now,I do not blame you if you can not understand a people with a history that dates even before the birth of our lord Jesus Christ,it needed only David,the king of Israel and this David will be always there among the true Tigreans.
“We fought for Eritrean independence from the colonial rule of Ethiopia. Even now, if Eritrea is attacked, EPRDF would jump into Eritrea, join the Eritrean people and engage the enemy.” – Sebhat Nega on Radio Woyane (May 28, 2007)
TPLF has since its inception been controlled by mercenary elements that fought against Ethiopia as their enemy. The group that wiped out so many lives and terrorized Tigrians into slavery and servitude, is still in power. If Ethiopia is turned into a failed, landlocked state, it is with a purpose. Read details from the historical facts presented by Asgede G. Selassie, author of Gahdi 1 and Gahdi 2. A survivor of the pogrom, Asgede was one of the 11 rebels who founded TPLF.

Guys let’s not act silly. Meles is really alive; even if he is dead we’ll never go back to brutal snd racist Aramaw regime. Stop dreaming. If he dies another party member will rule us.
Kebru Melese,dear Ethiopian,do talk about difiticism,they are enemies who are out to rule by force,it can not,they are not even Ethiopians,there is an armed struggle Tenes Amara,I am not Amharan but the enemy of my enemy is my friend,not only that they are fighting against an opperesser of a nation,we are tired of these low grade traiters,they were raised to the possition they have occupied now by killing and black mailing our friends,the people who were in the field know more like it is written above by Hozz in a nice way,first let us be free from these people and Isayas can not stay in power more than couple of months.
My apology for Kibreab,all the things we are proud of in the past is of all of us and I do not care even if we have a prime minister of Eritrean decent as long as he loves Ethiopians as a whole,God bless you.
