There is an equally powerful weapon: boycott any thing that is associated with Woyanne. The chigaram junta will collapse in no time. Start with Ethiopian Airlines. When we get our freedom back, we can establish 10 airlines that are better and more Ethiopian that the current one that is Ethiopian only in name.

That's an excellent observation, ultimately the downfall of Woyane will have an economic cause, in conjunction with the looming conflict with Eritrea. But arming the Amhara peasants is the right way to go, because it will give them the means to defend themselves, if Woyane tries to carry out genocide against them.

Conformist,
It is easy to raise fund from Diaspora Amhara but how can you deliver the arms to the intended people in Ethiopia???

Where there is a will, there is a way.

Do not the constitution-bared civilians not to carry any kind of weapons in the country???

What you call constitution is the one written by and for the Tigray mafia, it isn't our constitution, we do not accept it. Do you think our memory is that poor, the prohibition of arms were the invention of criminals such as Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin in Russia. Yet you expect us to embrace criminal Marxism after all the damage they did to us in the last 37 years. In Ethiopia there are two major traditions, Islam and Christianity. And both traditions are unabashed promoters of the right to bear arms. You must have forgotten your Tigray tradition too, because in Tigray there used to be pride in bearing arms.

Elias,

The agreement I have is Meles should not lead Ethiopia or represent Tigray but my problem with Amhara people is you see Ethiopia as one monolithic country and have the same thinking the way Elias or others think about Ethiopia. Every ethnic Ethiopia have their own agenda and priorities, there is no Tigrayan will ran away from the Tigray people for someone to come to power and take over. The old Ethiopia and Ethiopiawinet is gone over 20 years ago. The Oromo, Somali, Benishagule and Southern are totally different Ethiopians than the old Ethiopia. Tigray will not seat back and take someone else or the other ethnics, everyone will run home and control their Killil and people than the imaginary Ethiopia does not exist anymore with out the consent of every ethnics to defend.

As of your comment about let Woyane pass via Gonder and Wollo, logically yes but realistically those people were beaten so badly in Tigray for 17 years, Derg was not an alien, Derg assembled Amhara kids from Wollo, Gonder and Gojjam and they were already beaten by Woyane in Tigray and they do not have any chance by the overwhelming of Woyane fighters to let them do what ever they wanted and Woyane did exactly that. The other thing you have to factor is are Amhara naturally fond of fighting and carrying guns, they are not to site one example is the resent events in Eritrea, Eritreans tried their best to arm Amhara and fight Woyane, everything Eritreans attempted failed due to Amhara are not naturally a fighter forces and EPPF became history as EPRP before that.

If Woyane is to collapse because of airline boycott, how did they arrive in Addis Ababa to begin with when they did not have any outside help fighting Amhara who was backed by half of the world the communist blocks armed about $4 billion dollars worth of arms???

The Amhara farmers let them pass through Gondar and Gojjam because they were tired of Derg. Also without Shabia's support, they would not have controlled one woreda of Tigray, let alone Ethiopia. Let's also not forget they support they were getting from the U.S., Arab countries, Somalia's Siad Barre... and it took them 17 years to defeat Derg. If the Ethiopian opposition groups can get real support even from one country, Woyanne would be history.

Menelik, I agree that people must be armed to protect their freedom. I'm talking about boycott on top of people arming themselves. For example, ethnic cleansing scumbags such as Shiferraw Shigue would have been dead if they were any the U.S. or any other country where the people are armed.

Elias, true that Shiferaw Shigute who enjoys displacing Ethiopians from their birth place would have been killed had our people been armed. It is apparent and necessary that all Amhara both the elites and the farmers should be armed and prepared.
Now comes the time when all Amhara people ( Gonder, Shewa, Wello and Gojjam) be UNITED and protect their brothers. WE should stop worrying about Ethiopia... let us begin taking care of oneself, defend our territories from weyanes and Sudanese. That should be the main priority. Amhara people should begin thinking about forming a large organization that defend citizens rights.

It is about time to switch gear from wasting time with urban amharas or elites Amhara to the core foundation. I call them core because they are truly warriors that can defeat the uncivilized coward weyanes. Expecting results from elites amhara is simply a waste of time. It is time for us to organize the farmers in the country side and defend their territories... A case in point a farmer's reaction to the governor of Sudan. Our people in the country side are no joke.

Armed Self-defense is the best way to challenge the government sponsor terror as well different kind of illegal intrusion by armed thugs, like weyane and its kind.
So, Amharas should not wait as the old Bolsheviks who had been exterminated by Stalin and his henchman turn by turn. The Tigrian gangs are blood thirsty cannibals like their grandfather, Stalin, so it would be advisable to the people of Amhara to be armed and defend itself with any cost.
Amhara should learn from the second world war European Jews who were helplessly went to Hitler’s gas-chamber.
Assuredly, the Tigrain gangs are not less evil than either Hitler or Stalin, but as the saying goes the student is worse than his teacher, they are more evil than their idol, Hitler or Stalin. So, they would not have any compassion toward any Amhara, if we stand still and be on their mercy.

The Tigrayan farmers never been armed while their sons and daughters are living in Tel Aviv and American cities and London, the youth of Tigrayans went to the farmers and assemilate with them talked their languages, the farmers saw it in first hand to dedicate their cause and give their sons and daughters and shelter them and fed them during the 17 years struggle.

Shalon and Semira should be the first people to depart to the farmers of Gojjam and fight the good fight for their people. No talk from London and Tel Aviv someone to do the dirty and ugly jobs. Go and do it yourself.

Shalon and Semira did not say is how the farmers should be armed and who should go and arm them.

Is there any Amhara to have patience and endure hunger and pain in the countryside for years to come???

If there are Amhara to do so, I will be the first person to post your video on this website as viva fighters.

Halafi Mengedi, are you serious or is this for local consumption?

It is not new to trash the people when you consider them as enemy; most people despise and brand their enemy as cowardice to undermine their reputation or humanity. So, the people of Amhara should not be discouraged or irritated by what the Tigrians and their kind saying, instead we should focus to defeat the enemy by any cost.

Hitler and his associates used to categorize the Jews as cowardice, blood suckers, maggots, and slaughter them cold-bloodily.

The truth is that even the child would kill the unarmed as well as defenseless adult if the child has the ammunition to do it. What Hitler did to the Jews is a pure cowardly act, not a kind of bravery. So, the true coward was not the Jews, but Hitler the cannibal.
The same apply what the Tigrain gangs are doing to the unarmed Amharas. Persecuting, abusing and slaughtering the defenseless child and woman are not an act of valor, but pure cowardly act.
However, the only solution would be when the people of Amhara shows their muscle as the Zionists showed to the world, and shut the mouth of the enemies once for all.

Indeed, the states of Israel as well as the Jews are respected not because Israel is a promise land or the Jews are chosen people, but Israel has modern army with nuclear bomb capacity.

It was not along ago when the Jews were persecuted and slaughter by the blood thirsty beasts like Stalin, Hitler and others, but now everything changed and of course no one dare to touch them, and if there is one the State of Israel does not hesitate to nuke them.

So, the people of Amhara should take a lesson from Zionist movement and organize as well as armed itself in order to defend its interest from the beasts (the Tigrian gangsters).

If we organize very well, we could smuggle ammunition through Sudan and the Armachiho, welkait, Tegeede, kola wegera, Tselemit, janamora peasants could get it easily.
Once the peasant is armed it needs to be informed that their property is in Tigray and they could go and get it any time.

Surely, the problem between Amhara and Tigre would be like the Jews and Palestine, so we should not undermine what is coming, instead we need to be ready to have a long and decisive fight with the gangs.
We should not let our people cry and bury their loved one, while the enemy is mocking on us. Instead we should make the enemy pay double, triple or quadruple for its ruthless action.
