A proof :Ethiopia a blessed country

Ethiopia is a blessed country , or Ethiopia is a promise land, i use to hear these sentences consistently when i was in Ethiopia,
There have been a lot of things which had been written in bible and koran too.
St.Mariam had blessed Ethiopia.Ethiopia has been given as a gift to st.Mariam, the mother of jesus. Jesus christ had blessed ethiopians by saying that why you israelites would not be like Ethiopians, Ethiopians, they did not see but they believe, those who believe with out seeing are blessed... and so on , at the same time the famous phrase from the bible "Ethiopia stretches her hand to the God".These are some of them.
Ethiopia's blessing will not stop there , Prophet mohammed blessed Ethiopia, when islam was at a stake, when arabs in the present saudi arabia were against him and his followers, prophet ordered his followers and his families to flee to Ethiopia. He believed that Ethiopians has got a religion , the Ethiopian empire would protect them, as he told them , they had immigrated to Ethiopia .The Ethiopian emperor gave them a protection.Due to this reason Prophet mohammed had blessed Ethiopia , according to the prophet it is forbidden to invade ,declare a war or to provoke Ethiopia.
I remember a religious somalian, when he was talking about his country's fate and the sufferings' that had occurred on somalians and somalia as a nation , he concluded that we as somalians during the regime of Ziad bare , we had invaded ethiopia, actually it was a forbidden act according to our religion , that is why we are paying the price due to our cursed action.

I read on the net once, alkaida a terrorist group which claims that they are the real islamist , they have given a warning to meles zenawi , but they said that we are the real muslims we are not going to declare jihad(holly war) against Ethiopia because of the fact that prophet mohammed had forbidden that , we respect the prophet's words .

I can talk in volumes about the blessing of Ethiopia, a lot of ppl has said a lot about Ethiopia,but one thing makes me excited , or i use to see it as a miracle, when the previous regime of ethiopia had been falling down , at the same time the new regime (rebels ) came to the power with a new ethnic based ideology , every body was expecting ethiopia will gone for good.
The rebeles once , they were getting all the supports from the arabs ,especially from sadam hussein of Irag, Gaddafi of Libya,and ofcourse syria and Egypt.
Gadaffi was a friend of the rebels , ghadaffi and sadam believed that ethiopia has to be dismanteled ,They had done what they can, actually they considered Ethiopians as a twin brother of israelites , almost a lot of arabs they share this outlook.

At the end i watched on tv all these leaders gaddafi, sadam, mubarek fallen down from their power, Ghaddafi had been murdered by his people, at the same time Sadam had been hanged ,Mubarek is on trial , he is in prision, syria is in turmoil.
At last not least , Ethiopia is a blessed country , Ethiopia belongs to the God, if you provoke , sabotage or invade Ethiopia, God will punish you !!! watch out!!!

A new athlet from Ethiopia Champion in 10,000 meters race

When i switched on my television , all of a sudden from the tv i watched an Ethiopian runner, whom i had never heard of him,on the tv he was showing a kind of gesture, which comes from his heart expressing his emotions because of that he was happy.The gesture was " an Ethiopian sign for a shooting or to shoot", besides him there was also an Ethiopian runner.
The ethiopian runner , the winner of the race he was performing Ethiopian traditional dance, it was nice to see my country man being happy , especially by winning the gold medal for his mother land , there is nothing more than this event , he should be proud of that , the victory was for all ethiopians.
at that time even though i was happy that an Ethiopian won a gold medal but i regretted because i missed to watch the whole race.I told to my wife about the race , i asked her if she had watched the game, unfortunately she also did not had a clue.
Eventhough i missed to follow the live race , eventually i got the chance to watch it on European sport channel.
The race was so hectic,it was a tough race,The famous Ethiopian athlet Kenenissa and sileshi were there ,Kenenissa had stopped due to a pain , actually he was a defending champion .
kenenissa had won the last four championships, before him the legendary ethiopian athlet haile gebresilasse won 4 times.Totally Ethiopia won 8 times consequently in the world athletics championship.It is awesome and wonderful.
When kenenissa dropped out ,imagine that defending chamion is not there ,then what would happen?, the chance to win the game diminished however the athlets were busy in running.With in the group there were two Ethiopian athlets who were not as such famous like Kenenissa and sileshi,Those athlets were Merga and Ibrahim , especially Ibrahim was a new one to the truck.
During the race for about seven and eight rounds the tempo was serious , the Ethiopians were not as such visible, since kenenissa is not there , no body has expected them.
At the last round approximately about 600 meters to finish , the somalian born English runner Farah splintered, he was running very fast.The two ethiopians had followed him, the gap was too much.Ibrahim of Ethiopia has narrowed the gap, at last Ibrahim managed to pass Fara of England and won the game.
Farah did not expect , he was confident to win the game.Ibrahim too he did not expect to win the game , at the end Ibrahim won the gold medal , Merga of Ethiopia became the third .
Ibrahim immediately thanked God , he said God is great, Ibrahim with his collegue and country man Merga , they runned in the stadion having in their hand the Ethiopian Green , yellow, red flag.The excited Ibrahim was kissing his ring, dancing ,performing ethiopian dance, both merga and ibrahim were happy . Me too i was very happy because they are my fellow country men who won the game, at the end Ethiopia won ,that is what it matters !!!
Let God bless Our athlets !!!

OLF a splinter organization which advocates for the succession of ethiopian provinces from ethiopia.
the aim of Olf is to dismantle Ethiopia as a country .The main reason for its argument is ,Ethiopia as a country had subjugated oromos as a nation.The oromos were not having equal rights as a citzen in Ethiopia and they were colonized by ethiopia, actually a base less argument.
In the first place the question of natiobn and nationalities is a marxist leninist approach which was advocated by Joseph stalin of soviet union.
Joseph stalin was a dictator and at times a leader of Soviet union. He had written a book , on his book he had given a brief explanation about nation , nationalities and how to solve the problems associated or related with this particular issue.
Actually according to his book , if we go deep to his analysis only nations could have the right to succeed from the entity where they believe that they had beeen denied their rights.
when it comes to his definition of nation , he has notified some criterias to be fulfilled.A nation to be considered a nation
1- it has to have a common language 2 shared geographical conditions 3_ the same culture 4-Economical relationships 5- a developed Pyscholgical entity .These are the criterias which has to be included to a nation to be called a nation .Generally in Ethiopia there is no any group, tribe which fulfils these criterias.

Let alone in Ethiopia , according to the socialist marxist approach where the stage in Ethiopia was feudo-capitalist , Even in russia where the technology was at peak , it became impossible to implement this theory,so Joseph stalin , when he was at power he stopped to implement the theory in to practice.
At large , Marxism a theory which had been proved wrong which means that the theory would not work in this physical world ,so why OLF is busy with its base less aim dismantling Ethiopia the answer is simple, olf and its leaders are looking for power , if that is not attainable they are getting their bread with this approach.
What a shame!!!

Egyptian uprising & social networks


I have decided to write or to say some thing about Egyptian revolution, i know that it might be late, any way there is a proverb 'better late than never', accordingly the initiative to write this article has been emerged when i saw mubarek(the x-president of egypt) on trial in Egyptian court.

Mubarek, the x-airforce officer , a hero to his land but a man who ruled Egypt ruthlessly with hard dictatorial hand for the last thirty years.I am not interested in going in depth about mubarek's life history. A lot has been said , written and broadcasted in different medias.

What has impressed me is ,how the Egyptian youths had managed to drive out mubarek from his office, in other words from his power,i was wondering what type of secretive organizations they used , how they had been able to be organized , how they manage to be capable of escaping the security apparatus of the regime?...etc are some of my questions which uses to come to my mind .

The youngsters,they have used modern social networks, such as hyves,paltalks, face books in order to be organized ,they had been worked day and night through facebooks, they planned the anti-mubarek demonstartion, they had calculated on how to make it practical, at the end they made it to be happened on the streets of cairo.

Egyptians had been inspired by the tunisians' uprising , a young tunisian vendor, a university graduate with out any job , burnt himself in protest against a police who did not allow him a place inorder to sale his products.It was a trigger point for the ppl of tunisia for their decisive peacefull protest against tunisian dictatorship. Which ends up in their victory
The Egyptians get momentum from their tunisian brothers , they became motivated on that. Youths of egyptians had used their computers(pcs)to topple mubarek.The youngsters were more advanced than the security apparatus of mubarek, they had out smarted them, not only that, they showed to the world how the modern IT(social networks) is powerful , they eventually reveal the world even it is possible to overthrow a powerful dictator who was having a lot of supports.

Abraham yayeh and his speeches

I knew Abraham yayeh from the Ethiopian television screens back at the end of derge era, I remember how he was eloquent, Abraham yayeh and G/medihin araya , Both of them , they exposed the real picture of weyane, especially abraham yayeh was showing us how weyanes hate Ethiopianism. He has briefly exposed the weyanes' anti-ethiopian stand, he narrated it in a fascinating way and clearly he stated weyanes' main agenda 1- fightingf for eplf of ertrea , in order to succeed its succession agenda 2- to divide Ethiopia in to tribal lines ,at that specific time the Ethiopan ppl was lending a deaf ear to any propaganda from the derge regime, simply the ppl was tired of the system , and had not expected any honest information from the derge regime, nevertheless when abraham comes with this information , every body was eager to hear what abraham and G/medihin would or had to say , we were enthusiast of them .

Times went , weyanes had entered in addis , it had happened exactly, what Abraham and G /medhin had told us was true and they were honest .I apperciated the courage of G/medihin and Abraham , they had done their best.When weyanes controlled Ethiopia Abraham and G/medhin had escaped , fled away from Ethiopia. Abraham succeded to settle in Denmark, Again All the way from Denmark we started to hear his voices on and off .Especially when shabya invaded Ethiopia , he started to be a big news in the Ethiopian news papers, abraham yayeh , all of a sudden he has been shown up in the shabyas' controlled region ertrea, he started to propagate against his mother land, at tht crucial time , when every Ethiopian from every walk of life was ready to fight shabya at any cost , Abraham,who was the real enemy of shabya , seeing him propagating for shabya, It was a shock to me , i was not expecting him there, at this point my respect to him started to diminish.I was not the only one with this type of feelings , all of my friends, we felt like that.

In 1997 , in Ethiopia, there was an election and election campaign , during that time , every body was involved in politics, we were expecting a genuine political process, that had not happened , the election process was not fair, there was a fraud and at last the votes had been stolen from the ballot of box, not only that, weyane had killed about 193 youngsters , arrested ten thousands , at the end the opposition leaders had been rounded up and putted them in a jail. Especially the opposition party which was called kinijit was targeted by weyanes. Abraham yayeh , at this cross road, he started to side up with weyanes, he was propgating that The tigreans should stand with weyane, Kinijit is a party of anti -tigreans, but in reality, kinijit was a party which was against any tribal and ethnic based politics. Here we go !! the same person who was standing for Ethiopian unity , he showed up to be a tribalist , even the worst one is he became the supporter of weyane, At this time too, i said what is going on? what happened with him? , I did not get an answer, at that time , simply it was beyond my expectation.

Recently i have read Abrahams' interview from awramba times, he was giving a brief interview about haile selasse, about derge ... , i liked the way he narrated about haile selasse and derge, he had pointed out the good and the bad sides of both regimes, especially for me and my generation who had grown hearing bad things about the emperor , listening the contribution of the emperor is a plus , it encourages us to go deep for a research. How ever would abraham stand firm for united Ethiopia,Ethiopianism and Ethiopian values as he usually speaks , I really doubt!!!
Ethiopia will Prevail!!

Release of Birtukan & my feelings

On this particular day 9/10/10, i read the reports from different web sites , i got the information from ethiomedia, ethioforum , abugida and so on. When i read tht Birtukan had been released from the prison I was very happy , i felt very good about that.
Any way the conditions that lead her to be released were so painful, i was not expecting from her to ask a pardon from the tyrant meles, i was expecting, she would stood firm . She had not committed any crime , so why she should ask for a pardon? at the same time five youngesters had given their life in order to protect Birtukan , so i was thinking she would stood firm
Especially when i was watching her on the weyane TV , It was a shock to me, it was a kind of tv parade, how this guys are cruel and fascist? i know that there was a psychological pressure, for sure there might be a torture , physical abuse , i can imagine that.
Meles and his regime had released birtukan with out their will, they had been forced by the international community , weyanes knew that if they do not release her she would have been nominated for the 'sakarov prize' a prize for human right activists which gives her the highest recognition, due to all these pressures weyane must release her , but they were looking for a kind of face saving ( yemaryam menged in amharic) .
Meles and co. had been kneeled down, still they had been dwarfed by birtukan.Her spirit is more than any thing , the fight was between evil and good .
All the way the pressures which had been exercised by the so called shimagles were too much, i can feel that , those, the so called elders were serving weyane like a cadre , they were an instrument to the fascist dictator zenawi.
I am asking my self , do i have a morale ground to criticize birtukan , ofcourse not , but any way still i appereciate her, when i am comparing my self with her, i use to ask my self , what is my contribution to mother land? what did i have done at this crucial time, still i feel a guilty conscious .
At this day i had visited a video at the web site , in the video , it has been shown how the youngsters had recieved her, they had surrounded her, how they had given her a respect . They have prepared a heroic welcome. They were singing Ethiopian patriotic song. The amazing thing was their creativity, as a matter of fact weyane had not permitted the plain Ethiopin green yellow red flag, the only flag which would be flied in the city should be the weyane's flag with star ,but the youngsters by passed this law , they had prepared and hanged separately green, yellow , red coloured small fabrics , it was perfect .
At last not least when i was hearing the songs, the song was in amharic '' beabatochachin dem tekeberesh yenorshew enat ethiopia yedeferesh yiwedem' i was remembering ethiopia , i was crying , these youngsters are heroes, they are honest , they love their mother land!!!
Ethiopia will prevail!!!!

Systematic genocide against Amharas , a letter to kesto

I use to participate in the pal discussions. i mostly use to listen what ever tha pal participants they talk, interested in politics , as any Ethiopian , i want to be part of those discussions, actually i am passive , i have never had taken the mic. but i use to write ,by writing my ideas at the lobbying board i use to participate . it is my way of participation

it was before yesterday , a participant which is called kesto, spoke about the systematic genocide of the amharas in the present weyane's ethiopia. He was explaining that there is a project which had been projected by the weyanes to curb the growth rate of the amharas, he further explained that in the socalled weyanes' amhara region (Shewa, Gojam , Gonder, wello), there was a vaccination which had been given to women from that region , a vaccin against birt which is birth control (in amharic tsins mamken)

kesto , he was talking about the amharas , how they have been deprived in this system. He explained that we need to be a voice for the voice less .

For me , i am not comfortable to see things with a glass of ethnic tribal lines , i consider ethiopia as one nation, indivisible, intertwinned to each other. I wrote and i responded to the guy , by writing that, why we focus on the tribes , tplf does not care for any body , they care only for their power, do u think these guys care for the tigryans, ofcourse not , they want the ethnic backed thinkings in order to keep us divided , at the end which keeps them in power.

But we Ethiopians are beyond that , Ethiopians are the smartest nation, no body could divide us, we are far from that.

At the end of the day , i had decided to look or read further to make my own investigation , it is a broad light truth that this government has shown and has campaigned in destroying Amharas , Tplf has been preaching a hate mongor campaign against amharas starting from their birth as an organization, taking this in to my account i started to read the two census , 1994, 2007 .

Accordingly in the 2007 census the number of amharas were diminishing comparing to the other tribes, It was scary, how could it be , the population growth was 1.7% where as in the others it was more than 2.4%, why only in amhara region? is there a systematic genocide which had been imposed there? i further googled and in the channel called you tube , i got some valuable information, a video which had been posted by nitro ethiopian.

I watched that video , the video was compiled with interviews between a journalist and weizero samya of weyanes' census official . She was not able why more than 2 .4 million amharas have been withered away . She could not explain that , any way she defended that the census was correct , she said that they have tried to investigate all angels , whether the amharas from rural areas have been immigrated to the cities or other regions, she sayd still not,but she could not classify the reason , actually it is sad !

The same official has been answering for questions in the weyane's parliament , she was responding in the same way, an intersting thing the so called , the representatives from that region specially addisu legesse has not shown any emotion, only one guy has asked a serious question , he has expressed his doubt.

In the video , in the election campaign one guy was showing about the child mortality reprot , which shows that in amhara region , it was the highest one, at the end he has asked that there is something wrong , which lead to the lowest population growth comparing to the other tribes in the other region.

It is scary , It could be a silent genocide against amharas , kesto might be correct !!!
