First sorry for behaving more Catholic the pope..allow me to give you some simple advice

let me start with you Ato Elias and Esat Tv’swrong approach to galvanize Ethiopians for the common goal. Both of them seem to concentrate to reach to older generation Ethiopians instead of the youth.,…in every culture and country, youth in their prime age, they are energetic, enthusiastic, risk takers , bold and courageous some times, implosive; an important ingredient which is needed to make a change. On the contrary, Elderly are cowards, corrupted, excessively analytical before they come to their decision, the dot, the plus and minus, all the puzzles which comes to their mind must be sorted out before they lift up their butt and execute the decision, a process which derails any effort to make some modest change. for instance, If you recall, the honorable hailu shawel excuse to sign the clemency letter which held him responsible for the entire debacle which took place in the aftermath of the election was..." Some of the political prisoners are parents, and they need to think about their families ". Beside this, if you are able to rally Ethiopian youngsters behind the cause, you have free advertisement on social networking nets such as twitter, facebook hi5 and other media out let....while elders, they can’t even manage to send email to their wife if their life dependent on it.In plain and simple language, Concentrate on Ethiopian youngsters in the Diaspora

Papa I hate responding to scum bag shabia rat like you but here I am... In my opinion Ethiopian problems is Ethiopians...worry about the dying shabia regime. Your days are numbered.

the hgdef mendef should defend its territory before leaping to dispense advice to others.

esat or elias do not see you as someone with unique ideas worth considering for that very reason - you can't defend yourself.

use your own advice and replace kemal gelchu, daud ibsa and all the rest of retired ethiopians that occupy hotels in asmara, sucking our resources. donkoro!

Damn it! Didn't know Kemal Gelchu(?) and Daud Ibsa are Eritreans? Thank you, Eden.

You are half correct. The older generation as you said may be coward, less risk taker etc which i agree. But the Old has what the young generations do non't have. i.e Cash, Administration, Expertise and Know how on some key areas. the young, though vigorous and risk takers, lack those crucial ingredients. Therefore, you need both the young and the old. In regard to ESAT, they have to weigh it based on cost/benefit analysis. in my view, a TV like ESAT does a great job in a society or government that respects public sentiment. But for an admistration like weyanne, i still doubt its viability. I like ESATs radio because it is cheap. their TV is too expensive to operate. The money is worth spent on something else than on the air. After all, it is effectively jammed by Chinese technology and engineers weyane had hired

qindbwa, the joke is on u buddy. everybody knows gelchu and ibsa do not have to be eritreans for you to replace them. colonels tadese and abebe ring a bell?

I don't want to comment on what the original thread was meant to address but just wanted to say something about the part I marked in red and underlined. The folks that are sponsoring ESAT can afford to pay for 10 ESATs if they chose to do so. Don't assume its donation money from the Ethiopia diaspora. I do hope they (the financiers of ESAT) choose to expand the program, both radio and TV. There was a similar effort that targeted Eastern Europe at one time. It had paid off big time.

Would this answer your question?

3. (SBU) A knowledgeable non-Eritrean embassy contact believes the
TPDM's new chairman is a man named Molla. The contact told Emboff
that the group strictly guards its leaders' names for fear of
reprisals against their families in Tigray. He said the TPDM does
not recruit recently escaped Ethiopian Tigray soldiers in Eritrea,
but rather recruits disgruntled Tigray youth from within Ethiopian
Tigray. The contact believes the group presently has several
hundred fighters.

I may have not known about those sponsers you mentioned but from what the Management recently said, it is in a financial trouble. take a look at this. The statment sounds that ESAT needs 3000 individuals who contribute $20 every month. It is that money that i was refering

a hgdef mendef quoting U.S. embassy cables? p r i c e l e sssssssssssssss!

btw, revelations is full of conspiracy theory about esat because esat doesn't cover AAPO/ AEUP leadership and events. esat man prof. al mariam sided with bertukan group against hailu group during CUD split. besides esat gives berhanu unlimitted air time. revelations never forgave esat. tesasatkugn revu? lol
