The 31st anniversary of the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) was observed here Sunday in the presence of Prime Minister Meles Zenawi and higher government officials as well as members of the business community that support the party.
President Girma Wolde-Giorgis and over 1,500 members of the Front and partner organizations also attended the celebration at the Sheraton Addis where statements indicating the bitter struggle the party had waged to ensure peace and democracy in the country with the peoples of Ethiopia were read.

Speaking on the occasion, Chairman of TPLF, Prime Minister Meles Zenawi underscored the unwavering commitment of the Front to eliminate poverty and ensure the prevalence of democracy and good governance across the country despite the changes in the form of the struggle.
Meles said the war at hand is against poverty and the weapons are businessmen and investors who could play crucial role in the fight. The Prime Minister Meles pledged to stand along them and urged them to show courage.
Deputy Chairman of TPLF, Foreign Minister Seyoum Mesfin said on his part that the mystery behind the success of TPLF were its genuine cause, and the ability to mobilize the public to its causes as well as the commitment of its disciplined combatants that steadfastly stand for the principles of the party.
"Speaking on the occasion, Sheik Mohammed Al-Amoudi said supporting the EPRDF, which ensured peace and democracy in the country and elected by the public [sic], would be standing up for peace and development. He said he would therefore support such a government and give his life".
Seyoum said eradicating poverty and backwardness is much more complex and difficult than scoring victory in war and called upon the public to provide its full support in the fight against poverty.
Over 9.6 million birr was donated by members and party supporters as well as businessmen on the occasion. Of the stated sum, 5.5 million birr was donated by the business tycoon Sheik Mohammed Hussein Al-Amoudi and family to strengthen the party.
Speaking on the occasion, Sheik Mohammed Al-Amoudi said supporting the EPRDF, which ensured peace and democracy in the country and elected by the public, would be standing up for peace and development.
The business tycoon said that he vividly recalls and never forgets what the government of EPRDF stated when it first told him to invest in Ethiopia as this is his country. He said he would therefore support such a government and give his life. This partisanship also applies to my family, he underlined.

Only people like Alamoudi are the hope for the real progress in Ethiopia. It is action that is badly needed to make poverty history. The lies and blackmails by the distgrantled members of the x-ruling systems should not discourage you. Move forward you always be remembered by future generations as their father who transformed the nation.
As to the dogs, just let them bark. They ain't worth paying attention. They will stop when they get tired.
There are a lot of x Woyane thugs who post comments. Do not label every one as ex-dergist.
Give me a klimanjaro size brake.
Do you remember his 'Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular'
and those white people who were carrying him around in kampala?
With the intelectual talents of PM Meles Zenawi,
The wisdom of President Girma Woldegiorgis,
The good qualities of Arkebe Oukbay,
and the wealth of Ethiopia's modern day Jegna Alamoudin,
Ethiopia is rising!
We do not appreciate that an investor who try to prolong our sufferage under the tyranny regime.
It is really shamy to see one of our beloved investors marry and celebrating honey moon with the racist regime. As a businessmen he shall keep silent without interfering. It is not too late my dear...you had better to divorce. May God bless you!!!
With the moron like you, Ethiopia is going down. Neither neftgas nor the Woyane thugs are good for the country!!
Meles= a talent to destroy Ethiopia
Girma W/G = he doesn't know what he is doing,he will take the presidency in the CUD gov't.
Arekebe="popularly elected mayor"
Alamoudin="he loves Ethiopia"
IF CUDP IS THE ONLY PARTY WE SHOULD VOTE FOR WHERE IS THE DEMOCRACY???
HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT 99% OF THE ENTIRE VOTE CAN GO TO ONE PARTY???
IF I DID NOT VOTE FOR EPDRF BUT DON'T SUPPORT CUDP, WOULD THAT MAKE ME ANTI-ETHIOPIA???
IS GEORGE BUSH NOT AMERICAN?
DON'T DEMOCRATS SHOP IN REPUBLICAN'S BUSINESS.
ISN'T THE PERSON WHO HELPED CLINTON ELECTED MARRIED TO THE PERSON WHO HELPED BUSH BECOME A PRESIDENT?
IF WE KNOW DERGUE WAS NOT AMHARA PEOPLE WHY CNA'T WE ADMIT EPRDF IS NOT TIGREAN PEOPLE???
WHY CAN'T I CRITIZES CUDP, IF THEY STAND FOR FREEDOM OF SPEECH???
ARE THERE NOT OROMOS, HARARIS, GURAGEAS, SOUTHERN PEOPLE WHO SUPPORTED THE RULING PARTY? NOT EVEN ONE? ARE THEY NOT ETHIOPIAN TOO???
WHY ARE WE SO BLIND TO SEE THAT THE ISSUE HAS BECOME A WAR BETWEEN AMHARA AND TIGREA???
WHERE ARE WE GOING???
how much do you get paid by the TPLF tugs. If you are not paid you are fools. If I am supporting EPRDF as much as you do I will be on their payroll for sure. Don't be just pathetic jerks be paid pathetic jerks at list. The sad part is you are nobody low lives that want to bring every one with you to the bottom. Why don't you try to rise from the gutter and join the civilized people who use their brains rather than their asses like you.
Shame on you all. Why didn't you come up with good lies? You can do better. We Ethiopians are really disappointed with you.
Mohammed Al-Amoudi makes a correct decision. since he is muslim and all muslims in ethiopia have in this government more rights than bevor. So that is the reason why Mohammed Al-Amoudi helps EPRDF.
Ethiopia neglegts in its history the rights of muslims. Now Mohammed Al-Amoudi shows you the solution. All muslims in ethiopia follows Mohammed Al-Amoudi.
Thanks Mohammed Al-Amoudi, you are a true ethiopian and muslim. You show the correct way that a muslim in ethiopia shall go.
If you want us to believe all Tigrean are not for EPRDF why don't we see or hear any Tegrea that do not support speaking out. If all are not for EPRDF then some could be with CUD or southern peoples party or any other party they can come up with. If you are not for CUD that doesn't mean you have to be with EPRDF. Do you believe in strong Ethiopia and you want what is good for Ethiopia then you should not support any one that is trying to divide by ethnicity and race. If you believe in that, either you are a fool or naive.
Also, please don't compare US with Ethiopia at any level or situation. Ethiopia is not at the level US was even in the 1850s. Do you know how many universities where there in America in the 1870s hundreds. How many do we have now 5? So, save your example for some thing else.
What you speak. Do you think all muslim ethiopians like Al-Ammoudi are from Saudi? You must remember, 55% of ethiopians inclusive Al-Ammoudi are ethiopians. Muslims ethiopians never go to Saudi but live in ethiopia.
You are the most ignorant and ill-informed participant in this forum. When you say Ethiopia has just 5 universities you must be referring to what you left when you were chased out as an Esepa cadre 15 years back. Ethiopia now has 12 big universities and dozens of private university colleges. And 13 state universities are under construction. Remember, the Neftegna governments built only 5 universities in hundreds of years. But EPRDF has more than tripled it in less than 15 years.
On a political note,you said Yoni will be the fool of all the fools if he supports EPRDF that you think is divisive. I guess you are entitled to your opinion but that is only yours. Millions of other Ethiopians think that only EPRDF stands for the real unity based on equality. The fact that you are trying to ridicule those who don't fit with your political views shows how stupid you are.
How many of you CUD's are really morons and selfish. You are declaring to free the ethiopian people and bark like a dog about democracy and yet you want to deny ones self expression. he has the money he can make whatever decision he wants as an individual. please learn to respect the right of others and yours before creating chaos and instability in our nation. whatever you are trying to do here it does not justify your low life as a cabby .
THE FBI THINKS AL-AMOUDI IS A CITIZEN OF AMERICA RESIDING IN THE U.S. THEY ALSO CLEARED HIM OF ALL CHARGES.
SOME SAY HE IS TRYING TO BE THE MEDIATOR BETWEEN THE U.S. & LIBYA.
CHECK YOUR FACTS BABY.
HEY OBSERVER,
I CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR INABILITY TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS, BUT I WON'T BE HARD ON YOU BECAUSE YOU MAY BE A LATE LEARNER.
PS. DEMOCRACY IS A STATE OF MIND NOT TECHNOLOGY. THANKS FOR ADMITING YOU ARE 100 YEARS BEHIND IN STATE OF MIND. ATLEAST I DID NOT COMPARE MANDELLA AND GHANDI WITH SOME SO CALLED LEADERS WHO NEVER GOVERN SMALL TOWN.
HEY I STILL LOVE YOU

You said,
"...your low life as a cabby"
what are you saying?
Is it a part of albanian marxism?
The gentle man has a right to do anything except...
I applaud him for his investment in ethiopia.
I, as free man, should have also a right to comment on any topics.
I am not going to shy away from commenting about his 'extra carricular activities' what ever they are.
freedom,
you can not handle it.
take care.
I disagree with this 55% of Ethiopians are muslims,Ethiopia is not the Middle East.I did not say all muslims in Ethiopia came from Saudi,what I want to tell you is this man,Al-Amoudi legally is holding a Saudi citizenship.He has no business to be part of Ethiopian politics.His billion dollar can not save TPLF let alone 5.5 million birr.But at the end of the day he will be held accountable fot all the illegal business ventures he enterd with the tplf gov.If I were him I will move my assets to Tigray,well the Eritrean might give him a hard time their too .He will not have a chance to live in Ethiopia after this, let alone doing business in my country.He is either stupid or arogant may be he wants to see the destruction of Ethiopia.Ethiopia never had a good friend from any Arab.
Long Live Ethiopia.
Here is to you baby! From one corrupted leader to another.The following was posted on People's Daily online.
Nigerian president says to send teachers to Ethiopia
Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo has agreed to consider a request from Ethiopia for more university teachers from his country, his spokeswoman Oluremi Oyo said on Tuesday.
The president made the pledge in the capital Abuja when he received the outgoing Ethiopian ambassador in Nigeria Yohannes Guinda-Ginbi, Oyo said in a statement.
The statement quoted the president as telling the outgoing ambassador that the request would be considered under the Technical Aid Corp (TAC), through which the country was assisting sister African and Caribbean countries.
The outgoing ambassador said that his country was making a fresh request for 671 university lecturers in addition to the 31 already serving there. He was quoted as saying that the additional request was to cater for the new universities being opened.
Obasanjo also said that the country would send "some experts on cassava" to assist Ethiopia, which had suffered food shortages as a result of incessant drought.
Obasanjo said that Nigeria had "very good relations" with Ethiopia and stressed the need for all African countries to do "a critical self-analysis if we are to get to where we should be."
He suggested that the two countries improve trade relations with each other with Nigeria buying meat and leather products in exchange for Nigerian products.
mohammed al amoudie give to brutal
regime 5.5 million birrs. ethiopian
people stand up fight for freedom.
The CUD fanatics you exposed yourself more than ever. You pretend to be more Ethiopian than anybodyelse but in practice you are the one who let us live in poverty for years and ages. There is no going back now as we speak history is being rewritten by the true daughters and sons of Ethiopian peoples(mind you not Ethiopian people).
You said: "I disagree with this 55% of Ethiopians are muslims,Ethiopia is not the Middle East".
Search in google to know how many percent ethiopian citizen are muslim. It is a minumum of 55%. That shows how ignorant you are over muslims. But now they start to show you step by step that they will take in a near future the leading government.
Don't you know that the vast majority of Tigreans are hot dog vendors,including your men.I bet you that you will not find any other Ethiopian man selling a hot dog on the street of Washington DC.The son of Begar,think twice before you open your "Lik Ye Tigre mouth".
Why every tigre is emotional "Kiletam".May be it is complex,inferiority.
I really do not understand how many of morons are here. You want to insult the whole group of people which make up your "beloved" Ethiopia and then you are fighting for freakin unity and democracy. First get it straight think twice and check up your sanity. Your low life here has made you to think in your bottom use the upper one.
Are you trying here to tell us you have a plan to establish The Islamic Republic of Ethiopia.Open your eyes and take a lesson from what happened to the taliban.To me religion is not important, unless you are islamic extremist you will agree with me.Ethiopia belongs to the followers of both religions.But you can not impose your religion on others,keep it in your bed room or in your Mosque.
would it not be better that we invest our time on the struggle to get rid of the tyrant and his killer cadres?
Thank you
ZERUBABE
When religion is not important for you, then you shall accept the rights of muslims in ethiopia. You give comments as ethiopia belongs only to christ. It is difficult for you to accept that Naftenga are not rich but poor. Because they speak to much and work nothing.
Is there any single individual who believes in CUD that could donate that much money. I wish you guys had atleast one who could say you are the one I trust you and here is the money. But bunch of loosers fan their limbs for free in the streets of DC. I think you were day off from the PARKING BOOTH
I will be more than happy to see Tigray separated from Ethiopia.What to loose? poverity ang treason.This is the opinion of Ethiopians.Accept the fact and live with that.
Wait Ethiopians!!!!!! Please don't misunderstand or twist my words. The point is .....what else will you do? CUD MEMBERS ROT IN PRISON, Zenawi wines and dines while Ethiopians starve in their own filth and everybody else looks helplessly. Run these Woyanes out of the country before Ethiopia becomes another Middle Eastern Al Quaida training camp.The man that could help you is willing to die for TPLF. CUD MEMBERS SHOULDARM THEMSELVES AND GO BREAK THEIR LEADERS OUT OF PRISON. wHILE YOU ARE IT STOP BY SHEIK AL-MOUDI'S HOUSE AND SEE IF HE IS REALLY TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT DYING FOR MELES.
PEACE.
When tplf celebrated its 31st anniversary, I want members to look at what happened to their comrade, Seye abreha, in the hands of meles and the network and face the music.
"...On his 5th court appearance in 10 days, the Federal First Instance Court decided to release Ato Seeye Abraha on bail. It was on Friday, June 8, 2001, around 3:30 p.m. in the afternoon... Ato Seeye came out of the court jubilant and clearly victorious. He was received with jubilant chorus and acclamation from the crowd. Before he was guided into the police Land Rover that would take him back to his cell; he made, brief remarks to the effect of:
"I am not a thief, I have not stolen a dime from my country. But I did quarrel with the Prime Minster over issues of paramount significance both to my people and my beloved country...."
"...By about 5:00 p.m. Friday, 8 June 2001, i.e. few hours after the court decision was given, Ato Seeye's lawyers arrived at the gate of the Central Investigation Bureau with the release warrant in their hands, but to no avail, for the officials were nowhere to receive the warrant and release Ato Seeye. Then followed the weekend of June 9-10, 2001. Monday morning, June 11/2001, instead of signing the release warrant, the officials of the CIB appealed(!) to the Federal High Court against the ruling of the Federal First Instance Court. The Federal High Court endorsed the ruling and instructed the CIB to release Ato Seeye. The officials at the CIB instead of obeying the orders of the courts, appealed to the Prime Minster himself;
which resulted in an immediate amendment to the 15 days old anti-corruption law. Monday afternoon, a one-page amendment was directly sent to the printing press from the PMO.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was neither reviewed by the Council of Ministers nor signed by President Negasso Gidada. A copy of the "amendment" was also sent to the then Minster of "Justice" Werede Wold Woldie with instructions to present it to the parliament by Tuesday morning, which he obeyed happily.
Tuesday morning, when the parliament was supposedly deliberating on the draft amendment, it was already printed on the Negarit Gazetta, being effectively law as of the same date and hour on June 12, 2001.
At noon the same day it was read out on the national radio.
"The house of representatives today amended the anti-corruption law it endorsed on May 24/2001. Accordingly:-
(a)Persons suspected of corruption shall have no right to bail, and
(b)Corruption cases shall be seen by specially designated courts."

Democratic constitution does not go with the character you played the past years.
I am soliciting for people who really believe in EPRDF to contribute more money we accept visa, MC, Amex and personal check. But we do not accept from rotten CUD fans, because most of it is stolen money and they do not really believe in democracy. Sorry CUD's
You are very smart.
collect morrrrrrrreeeeee money to strength tplf.
OK FU@$ WOYANE TOO. BUT IF YOU CHOOSE TO TALK TO PEOPLE WHO AGREES WITH YOU ALL THE TIME HOW ARE YOU GOING TO LAYOUT A FOUNDATION FOR DEMOCRACY???
WHO WOULD BE YOUR OPPONENTS??? IS IT GOING TO BE A ONE PARTY SHOW??? IS YOUR VIEW THE ONLY SOLUTION TO OUR NATION??? CAN A GROUP OF CLAN MEMBERS TALK WITHIN THEMSELVES AND TRY TO LEAD A COUNTRY??? DO I MUST AGREE WITH YOU JUST TO OPEN A DIALOGUE WITH YOU??? WHAT PLANET ARE YOU FROM??? DUDE THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NEXT TO YOUR RESIDENCE ARE TEACHING DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH. IN DEMOCRATIC WORLD YOU CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO OPEN DIALOGUE WITH YOUR OPPONENTS.
I STILL LOVE YOU
Dear Dr. Alamoudi;
Thanks a lot for your unwavering effort to the development of our country. Please disregard the comments from short sighted CUD fanatics. They should do the same if they really believe in their party and struggle. But I believe most use their opposition to justify the low life they are immersed in. Think Ethiopia and its peoples.
How can one elect to have a dialogue with a terrorist unless he/she is a terrorist?
you said "THE ISSUE HAS BECOME A WAR BETWEEN AMHARA AND TIGREA???"
Do you know why that is because TPLF stands for Tigrian peoples liberation front not Ethiopian peoples liberation front. The other thing you are wrong is it is not between Tigrea and Amhara it is between Tigreans and Ethiopian. If you don't understand what I mean by that is between people who stand for the whole Ethiopia and between people who stand only for the advancement of Tegrea only. Some one who is a member of TPLF can't say he represent the whole of Ethiopia. I have to spell it like this for you so you can understand. You just simply comment with out fully understanding what your saying. What makes you think CUD represents AMHARA only? Who told you CUD is only one party? Who told you we are all for CUD? All we want is the any one who is fairly elected to be in power. You can support criticize EPRDF or CUD anyone one else, that is your choice. No one said you couldn’t. What you do not understand or having problem to grasp is we are not criticizing EPRDF because we just simply hate it for the sake of hating; it is because they are not elected by the people, and they are in power because they carry guns. Can you articulate for me why you support EPRDR, if you do support them? Didn't you try to preach me about democracy earlier, as being a state of mind? Why don't you tell me the democratic aspect of the EPRDF government?
Don't simply write; write from a simple starting point. I understand where your starting point is. You starting point is freedom of speech. You want people to criticize any one they want with out being characterized as supporter of this group or that group. You are absolutely rite. No one is arguing about that. But, the problem is where your starting point is. You starting point should be not free speech to support who you want to support, in stead it should be is there freedom of speech in Ethiopia? Is the government legally elected government? If you start from these points there will be no ambiguity who is for Democracy and Ethiopia and who is not. Don't simply write, for just to do so because you will make your self look silly.
But I sill love you too.
You are running away from the topic above.
My question is why do anybody contribute money to strength the party, tplf, tigrean people liberation front?
As far as I am concerned, there is no democracy in Ethiopia at this moment.
Who hell are you to tell that any way? Don't use Oromo name to say nasty thing here, okay? I know you are Naftagna Amhara. That is why you are against him. Sheik Mohammed Al-Amoudi is not outsider. He is one of us. Remember, he has his own people too, at least by his mother's side. Me as Oromo, don't agree with his political activities but he has every right to make his voice heard. I am his supporter too one way or the other. He is a great business man. Thrust me, he knows what he is doing. The sheik is making his 99% investment in Oromia region, he knows it is the safest place to do businesses. We know for sure, his business will not be affected for his voice or participation in Ethiopian politics even if the current ruling party disappears. We the majority ethnic group: Oromo people are not against him because of his political activities. He is a good businessman. And we know he is under a lot of pressure. He is trying to do his best to improve our country's economic situation. We know that he is not a perfect person by any means but he is doing his best to improve things down there. So don't come here and insult our respectful businessman. Don't cry like wolf too. You got nothing to offer any way. He is not doing business in your region too. He don't have any valuable resource in your region. We know that Naftagnas are loosers! They are greedy selfish people.
If you think the Sheik is not belong to his mother's country, and he should be sent to Suadi Arabia. Then we will send you first to your little Gondare village in the north. You are the real immigrant to Oromia: my country, not him. The Sheik, at least, by his mother's side belong to Oromia. So what is your problem any way? As I said, you people have nothing to offer but making trouble in our country.
YOU ARE STILL MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, I LOVE YOU ALL NO MATTER WHAT OUR DIFFERCES ARE. WE MAY FIGHT AMONGST EACH OTHER, BUT WE SHOULD NOT LET ANY FOREIGHNERS GET BETWEEEN US.
PEACE
Ethiopia is beloved by Ferengi than diaspora.

It has been about power,it willbe about power.I always been on these two ethinics poisonous power compitition.these manupilation of fair,democratic,legal or....never come out of them.Saying that not mean there hadn't any genuine citezens from either. But whatever mistake their masters do, on whoever it had never been their responssoblity.SO dear Ethiopia carries the burden.
so todays topic is neither
targated directly at the Sheik, nor at what it means to Ethiopia/Ethiopians;it is What it neams to those 'watch ur fins'.
Love for all!!
why they don't make any compromization? why they have to put the other citezens in their mess?
My point is to tell you that Every Tigrian is not the supporter of the bloody Woyanie.
I would also like to tell you that CUD is a party not based on any Ethnic group. It’s a party that stood for individual’s right. Therefore if you are a supporter of CUD, you should not see people in terms of groups. Otherwise you are contradicting the very principle of the CUD. CUD believes that Ethiopia belongs to every one from every ethnic group.
God bless Africa
Foolish. Can't you read what the CUDits say about any idea against them is Woyane. They are giving names to other ethnic individuals except Amhara. Why is that. You remeber the Derg! It was like that and their mind is not washed with soap of democracy and mechachal. Soon they will be history.
Who you want to fool anyway! I think yourself. Did you write your article while in your wild dream or what? I suspect that. You wrote the following:
"I would also like to tell you that CUD is a party not based on any Ethnic group."
CUD is a collection of derg remnents and naftagna Amharas collection pot. We all know that! So don't come here and try to convince us. We know who you are and the whole Ethiopian people knows it too.
Foolish. Can't you read what the CUDits say about any idea against them is Woyane. They are giving names to other ethnic individuals except Amhara. Why is that. You remeber the Derg! It was like that and their mind is not washed with soap of democracy and mechachal. Soon they will be history.
First of my comment was to those who think that they are the supporters of the CUD but at the same time contradicting the very essence of its being.
I am not foolish or I don't want to fool any one. I tell you that the CUD is not a collection of one ethnic group and neither its supporters. If you don't agree with me you are saying that the whole population of Addis is from one group.
The CUD is about every individual’s right even yours.
God bless Africa
Read the topic carefully. We are not talking about Muslim Marriage here. Yes, Muslmims have the right to marry officially more than 1 wife but one has to have various reasons so stop talking about what you do not know. And you Amharas you do not have more than 1 ushemas , yetedebeke.Anyway stop bieng jealous of muslin money cause u can never get and will never be like them.
S
When the day comes they will relinquish their Power & money to the right full owners, The Ethiopian people. The sheik is an Arab Agent & also gives cover to the day light robbery by the Tigray hooligans. (Only Tigrawoch doesn’t want to know this, but the rest of Ethiopians knows this all along).
your mother must get you liicked by a cobra when she delivers you. Or like one fella said (your mama might have damped you and your duped dad for the AGAMES ')
'tertir ke-entin wust aytefam sintir???'
anyways, i am an employee of the blessed man, BEST Gift of Ethiopia next to EPRDF and Meles.
Do you know???
- that the Sheki is the 2nd employer in Ethiopia next to the govt. of ethiopia?
- the leader investor in Ethiopia
I can list alot but these two pts are enough to show what this MAN of the MEN means to his Motherland.
is he supporting the woyanes?
SO WHAT? let alone HIM, the step sons and dausters of ethiopia are supporting a step-party.
You have raised an insightful questions.
As far as the blind CUD supporters are concerned YES "IF YOU DID NOT VOTE for CUDP - you are ANTI-ETHIOPIA”.
That is their interpretation of DEMOCCRACY- hence there is no surprise they insult Mohammed Al-Amoudi.
However, if Mohammed Al-Amoudi was raising funds for CUDP - He i.e. Mohammed Al-Amoudi will be praised as the TRUE Ethiopian! What a hypocrisy?
I strongly feel those who are lining up to insult Mohammed Al-Amoudi should be ashamed to forward such a snobbish and stupid argument.
The reality is: Ethiopia have been in war with monstrous and regime like Mengistu which was doing its best to rule by force – until the gallant youth of Ethiopia raised their arms and crashed the dictator.
Yet the hypocrite AAPOs disguised as CUDP comes along and attempting to impose their rotten agenda in the disguised name of Ethiopian Nationalism. One thing what surprised me most is: who said Amharas are the ONLY Ethiopians?
Don’t they remember the very fact that: the prime culprit among the causes for most of the turmoil Ethiopia experiencing is the unequal distribution of power and the lack of check and balance that prevents one group from dominating over the other as that was the case during the Haile Selassie and the Dergue era.
For our mother land to genuinely develop, most of the historical dirty linen like AAPO/CUD must be washed clean to build a stronger Ethiopia.
Certain incontrovertible facts have already been exposed and must be eradicated in order to find the right cure for the disease that is afflicting Ethiopia.
I conclude by saying: God save Ethiopia from the hypocritical and blind CUDP supporters and the hate mongers.
My Gut feeling tells me that the blind AAPO/CUDP SUPPORTERS Are GOOD for NOTHING but to spread hate and lies to fulfil their ego in the very disguised Ethiopia nationalism to – something which will never appear in bodily form.
Regards, Zena
Who said 55% of Ethiopians are Muslim?? Where did you get that figure? Don't tell me you got it from CIA WORLD FACTS book? woyane gave information to them saying Tigran population is 40% equal to Amharas. That's the type of misinformation woyne gave them. Therefore, we know for fact that information is inaccurate.
Do you believe the Tigryan population is as equal as the Amhara? then how can you tell if they are telling the truth about the Muslim population?
How about Mr. Alamoudi the next PM for Ethiopia representing the gallant and true leadership of EPRDF.
Dear CUD's
I do not imagine a political party with outward hate to a major group of Ethiopian people. I wish you come to your senses and discuss rationally what we need and what you can offer. Before you got tested you choose to be on the streets. Please get your acts together reshuffle your cards and try to demonstare your strength. may be you will get my vote in 2015. To far for you ah shortsighted egos. I can not help you need to mature.
I really lough at the CUD's
You do not give any penny, you do not contribute to your country in anyway, your life is lost around the corners of Exxon and 711. But when you see someone who does exemplary commitment to his country you spoil their names. CUD leadership is shortsighted, narrow selfish and entangled in personal ego, we do not need such enemy of development. Go back to the BOOTH it is late now

The trial of over 130 opposition leaders and journalists has begun in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa - on charges including genocide and treason. They were arrested in a second wave of violence after disputed elections last May.
Before the elections, the Ethiopian prime minister Meles Zenawi, had been hailed in the West as a progressive leader, who was determined to reform his government. But now those same sponsors are withholding aid until his behaviour changes.

Maybe they invited you to come and invest your money and by now they sold you half of the country. Of course i won't be surprised if you support the deldeye afrash woyene. But can you stop and think of the poor for one second and how much they want to see changes in their Country?? You are not any different than the woyanes who have been drinking whisky on the grave of 70 million youth. We know you are rich, but can you please think of the poor? You can not help the poor by only making them your slaves by working them in your companies. They deserve the right to live in freedom and build their own empire instead of being slaves of you and woyane forever. If you are doing everything legally, you have nothing to be afraid of regardless of who gets elected. but you got all nerves when you felt that woyne was going to lose and stated showing your support in public. What would you have lost if KINIGIT won the election? That would be so interesting to know? why are you supporting woyane so much?? It can't simply be because you feel woyane is democratic? i don't know any other rich person in Ethiopia other than you who supports woyane, who is not tirgra?
Do you know individual freedom to support anybody I want in anyway. Do you have to support CUD to be democratic. To be democratic is to allow and respect others to their freedom of expression. I am very proud and feel satisfied supporting the EPRDF. But in the same talken I respect why you kiss old ass of CUD that is your right. You brown nose.
I can see many of you are blinded by hatred of TPLF or EPDRF, with a blind love for CUD. This is not democracy.
All parties should be respected and work together.
TRY TO REASON BOYS! AL MOUDI HAS THE RIGHT TO SUPPORT TPLF AS YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUPPORT CUD.
You can support the party that meets your interest.
But, by supporting TPLF/EPRDF, you are supporting:
1) A government that has divided the country based on the body chemistry, language and ancestry of its citizens. A government that does this is a racist government. So you are supporting a RACIST government.
2) A government that has monopolised the economy for the benefit of the leaders using the power at its disposal. A government that does this is a MAFIA government. So you are supporting a MAFIA government.
3) A government that has kidnapped, tortured, imprisoned 10-thousand UNARMED civilians, and killed 100 of UNARMED civilians. It has also imprisoned opposition leaders and journalists. A government that does this is a DICTATORSHIP. So you are supporting a dictatorship.
So you have to know that you are supporting a racist-mafia-dictatorship of TPLF/EPRDF.
You have the right to support this thug regime, but you must know that you are supporting EVIL.
We have to start by admitting all political parties are ethiopians, all are trying to help Ethiopia. Then we can choose the best one without any attached emotion of love or hatred to any party.
Emotions will never and have never solved a problem in history. Reasoning, talking sense, respect to one another is the solution we have. other than this we are going to see more bloodshed in the future.
Lets calm down. The billionair has the right to support TPLF, or CUD or OLF or UEDF etc.
people should be able to be friends while supporting different political parties, then we can say we have matured, and our country can enjoy peace.
All the best for mama Ethiopia!!!
By now everyone with some critical sense, ofter the result of education, should be aware what the programme of CUD looks like. (Have you also noticed they have none?)
1. kill all Tigreans first
2. they don't know who to kill next
3. let us all be buddies and move into the same house, same rent, one ethiopia with small e and without diversity, especially not Mulims. What is that?
4. get rid of the rif raf, (you and me and other ethnics (often described as racists)
5.anyone they do not like is a mafia,(something born in Palermo, Sicilly, later born-again in America
6. true ethiopians hail either from Ankober or parts of USA (little ethiopia, DC and LA). All others are assigned to basket no.35, i.e. trash and rif raf
7.Oromos to be deported to Madagascar, where they came from (funny, Hitler had originally in mind to send the Jews to Madagascar)
8.one flag (soaked in the blood of the dare devils, the Tigreans)with a limping, cross-eyed lion cub and later, much later a crown for Hailu Wushawel (but what good is that, he would have been dead 10 years by then)
10. to clear the way for the great Anokebrite revolution, they shall work with dedication towards the dismantling of Ethiopian economy, or what is left of it after the shambles created by Derg.
This, dear readers, is the MANIFESTO OF CUD.
The solution? We have no final solution, but we solve problems as we go. Catch them like mad dogs, put them in Kaliti (later to be promoted to Dedessa). Take them to court. Make them read the law books. Give them a lawyer. Give them medical care and later, psychological therapy and last but not least, teach them about DEMOCRACY, preferably in Tigrignya or Oromifa. Other languages are also welcome.
The other solution: DIASPORA, those with foreign passports.....? not all of them, but those known to have genocidal aspirations, send them back to...... anywhere,....preferably far away, maybe even to Guant.....? How about that, eh.....?
The issue you fail to understand is the difference between the political and the social. The political involves the use of force, while the social does not.
When you divide people politically it has negative consequence. As the Ethiopian constitution separates religion from the state, it must also separate ethnicity from the state. In the social sphere, people will associate with others of the same convictions, not of the same ancestry. I see extreme danger in including ethnicity in politics in the same way that it is extremely dangerous to include religion in politics.
So what we want is that we want to change the constitution so that ethnicity is removed from political division of the Ethiopian people
That is our goal. It may take us a long time, but that is the only way to bring together people of same conviction, instead of the accident of birth in same village.
That is why I say the current constitution is a RACIST constitution.
The Andante of Snakes
They weave a slow andante as in sleep,
Scaled yellow, swampy black, plague-spotted white;
With blue and lidless eyes at watch they keep
A treachery of silence; infinite
Ancestral angers brood in these dull eyes
Where the long-lineaged venom of the snake
Meditates evil; woven intricacies
Of Oriental arabesque awake,
Unfold, expand, contract, and raise and sway
Swoln heart-shaped heads, flattened as by a heel,
Erect to suck the sunlight from the day,
And stealthily and gradually reveal
Dim cabalistic signs of spots and rings
Among their folds of faded tapestry;
Then these fat, foul, unbreathing, moving things
Droop back to stagnant immobility.

you make it once more clear for the diaspora who they are.please give them a chance befor you shoot them all.

Bekele,
The issue you fail to understand is the difference between the political and the social. The political involves the use of force, while the social does not.
When you divide people politically it has negative consequence. As the Ethiopian constitution separates religion from the state, it must also separate ethnicity from the state. In the social sphere, people are not prevented to associate with any one they like. However, when they are political (FROCE) divsion of people there is extreme danger in the same way that it is extremely dangerous to include religion in politics.
So what we want is that we want to change the constitution so that ethnicity is removed from political division of the Ethiopian people
That is our goal. It may take us a long time, but that is the only way to bring together people of same conviction, instead of the accident of birth in some village.
That is why I say the current constitution is a RACIST constitution.
Go to the immigration department in Addis, and you will see all of the workers in the admistrative postion are from Tigray. I call this RACISM.
The only reason for the poverty of Ethiopians is because of the monopoly of the economy by the MAFIA TPLF/EPRDF dictatorship, using the proceeds to save in foreign bank accounts and buy villas in foreign capitals. The population is extremely poor. But the individuals in the government are extremely rich and powerful.
The precondition for prosperity is FREEDOM. It is in the government’s hand whether to give or deny freedom to its citizens. So the prosperity of Ethiopians is in the hand of the mafia-government.
Solution: The government remove itself from the economy, return land to individuals and let private individuals invest and make fortune while at the same time creating jobs for the poor Ethiopians. This solution has been successfully tried in several countries. There is no other solution. Let people be economically and politically free, and progress is UNAVOIDABLE consequence.
So the one to be blamed is the mafia government which enriches itself until kicked out by force in the same manner they came into power.

As you are un able to put ideas logically, nobody take in to consideration all your unfounded propoganda.Ethiopians tired of you(in a broad sence of the word) and your folish agetation.
The truth is not as you put it but as follows: With the intelectual talents of PM Meles Zenawi, to mean to kill,destroy and as a saying goes "no grass grow after I die;
The wisdom of President Girma Woldegiorgis,to mean to eat "quart" and to sip whisky from dawn to dusk at the Minilake Palace while legesse has been killing people all over the country;
The good qualities of Arkebe Oukbay,to mean the slave of legesse with having no once own outlook;
and the wealth of Ethiopia's modern day Jegna Alamoudin,to mean modern day ideot who wants to buy love and esteem by mony from the ethiopian people,isn't it?
You are great, keep it up. by doing so at least we are telling them that not all ethiopians are blind. some may start reasoning, and stop their mentality of one country, one party CUD stuff.
I want to extend my appreciation to nazret.com who equally treat all their participants in posting comments. My comments are deleted fast in ethiopianreview.com, for the only reason i dont support the so called CUD.
Reason shall prevail,
you said "THE ISSUE HAS BECOME A WAR BETWEEN AMHARA AND TIGREA???"
Do you know why that is because TPLF stands for Tigrian peoples liberation front not Ethiopian peoples liberation front. The other thing you are wrong is it is not between Tigrea and Amhara it is between Tigreans and Ethiopian. If you don't understand what I mean by that is between people who stand for the whole Ethiopia and between people who stand only for the advancement of Tegrea only. Some one who is a member of TPLF can't say he represent the whole of Ethiopia. I have to spell it like this for you so you can understand. You just simply comment with out fully understanding what your saying. What makes you think CUD represents AMHARA only? Who told you CUD is only one party? Who told you we are all for CUD? All we want is the any one who is fairly elected to be in power. You can support criticize EPRDF or CUD anyone one else, that is your choice. No one said you couldn’t. What you do not understand or having problem to grasp is we are not criticizing EPRDF because we just simply hate it for the sake of hating; it is because they are not elected by the people, and they are in power because they carry guns. Can you articulate for me why you support EPRDR, if you do support them? Didn't you try to preach me about democracy earlier, as being a state of mind? Why don't you tell me the democratic aspect of the EPRDF government?
Don't simply write; write from a simple starting point. I understand where your starting point is. You starting point is freedom of speech. You want people to criticize any one they want with out being characterized as supporter of this group or that group. You are absolutely rite. No one is arguing about that. But, the problem is where your starting point is. You starting point should be not free speech to support who you want to support, in stead it should be is there freedom of speech in Ethiopia? Is the government legally elected government? If you start from these points there will be no ambiguity who is for Democracy and Ethiopia and who is not. Don't simply write, for just to do so because you will make your self look silly.
But I sill love you too.
Now the CUD is in Eritrea and they also want the tycoon to go there.
I am not sure what you are trying to defend. Are you trying to tell us the EPRDF government is a legitement government, it was ellected by the people. Answer me this question first before you try to mambel other stuff. That is the question most of us have. If the people do not want this government that is their right. Are you trying to convince us the people of Ethiopia wants EPRDF. That is all you need to answer. We are not interested what right you have to write and say any thing pro or against EPRDF or CUD. That is not the big question. THE QUESTION IS IS THE CURRENT GOVERNMENT ELLECTED BY THE PEOPLE. You need to answer this question first. If it is not, what is your logic to support them. I am not say you have to support CUD. I don't care if you do or not. I am for any one ellected by the people. If they ellect the devil that is their choice.
Another thing is you mention have you donated any money or have helped your people for any thing. My answer for you is may be you haven't done any thing so you think no one have done any think. Let me give you an example, three your ago a group of engineers from Europe wanted to donate water pumps to rural areas in the south. Do you know what the government said they told them they need to pay taxes to donate the pamps to the local governments. This is not a second hand news. I was there when they pleded the govenrment representative. This is a knid of govenment we have. Even when you try to help they will make life hell for you.
Dear all,
It is laughable to read what the fanatic CUD supporters telling us i.e. we should ONLY support their party.
Is that the CUD supporters interpretation of democracy?
No wonder you are lining up to insult Mohammed Al-Amoudi who have invested heavily and created so many job opportunity for the needy.
However, if Mohammed Al-Amoudi was raising funds for CUDP - He i.e. Mohammed Al-Amoudi will be praised as the TRUE Ethiopian! What a hypocrisy?
Furthermore, I would like to raise a number of questions to the so called “true Ethiopians” in Diaspora who became politically so active after the 3rd national elections.
How many of you the so called the “citizens" of the “true Ethiopians” did actually lift a finger to help a single individual from the morass our fellow "citizen" find themselves in?
Can any of you “true Ethiopians” could claim to have organised a fund raising event to build a single clinic to help those in need?
When did you last congregate in genuine anticipation of laying the foundation for a single school that would lift a section of a generation from the darkness of illiteracy?
Furthermore, ask yourselves,
When did you “true Ethiopians” last donated a single Birr to plant a seed, to sink a water hole, to water a sapling, to feed a hungry brother and his family? I said "donate".
Not give our time but stretch our giving hand!
Forgive me if I am wrong, what you all are interested in power and the benefit it comes with it.
Referring to the current Ethiopian impasse, what is more current than the inability to feed oneself in the next hour? Or day? Or month? Or eternity?
You can demonstrate day and night as much as you can in Washington DC. I have no problem against your right to do so.
But let me add one more point to the equation.
How about, for arguments sake the reaching out to those who death perpetrated on the poor through sickness? Or poverty?
Do you the blind CUD supporters allow your individual as well as collective mind to be used by one group such as CUD to be hijacked and used as an instrument in order that the group will facilitate its hideous agenda?
For the biggest enemy here is your wilful ignorance to the motives of others.
And to that extent I choose not to contribute one iota of my time or energy or a fraction of a penny to a cause that neither addresses the root cause of the problem nor would I restrain myself from voicing ways I think are the way forward.
In so doing, I offer no apologies but I stand to be corrected if I ever touched a raw nerve of a fake collective soul unknowingly or otherwise.

The sheik's increasing behavior in supporting the un-elected, oppressive regime may lend credibility to the hypothesis that the Sheik may be used as a conduit for Meles regime's money laundering schemes. Which means, the 5.5 million birr the Sheikh gave to the TPLF may actually be returning the regime's own money. This way they make it look like it is a gift from the Sheik when, in actuality, it may be a money laundering scheme.
I think the Sheik needs to refrain from supporting an oppressive regime for the long-term health of his economic empire in Ethiopia. The best long-term strategy for the Sheik is to be on the side of the people than to be on the side of an oppressive, divisive, and ethnocentric regime.
The Wonderful People of Ethiopia Will Eventually Be Victorious!!
All his words are as bad as his background and seems to have graduated from a college of insult he opened to train himself. What an ignoble,immoral person he is!
Were you really born in Ethiopian? I bet you that you were born in KUKU LALA land.
You think the stupid money that he gave is going to go to Ethiopian People to make Ethiopian a better world. You MUST be kidding man.
Let me tell you that money is going to go to Melse and his family’s stupid business.
I am even ashamed to call myself from people of Trigray.
Don’t just get up and talking nonsense just because you mama was born from that area.
If you were an educated person you will be reading more than wasting time writing all this nonsense.
I pray God to give you the wisdom to read more than hear from what you fellow ignorant people are saying. By the way DO YOU KNOW HOW TO READY? ---- Just out of curiosity.

I read what you wrote with interest. However, lashing on someone shows your level of maturilty - if I may say so.
It is really laughable to read what the fanatic CUD supporters like yourselves are telling us i.e. everone should ONLY support CUD party.

Please leave the Ethiopians in Ethiopia alone. They are managing the best way they can. It is hard to understand how they let a little bald-headed guy and a fat little al-qada terrorist with big money screw the country to death. In America Bush can tell lies all day and you can still go eat at your favorite restaurant and watch movies all day without fear of the country going in chaos.
Trust me, when the people are on television starving to death like they did with Megistu the opposition parties like Cud and others will be glad to take a few bullets.....except this time-CUD will shoot back. CUD MEMBERS are still eating good.....give them time. When Meles finally break their backs they will rise up.
Until then, help them by their getting their daughters and sons to United States and Great Britain. Get them Visas to leave the country and experience life in America. America is a dirty place, but at least they know how to lie cheat and steal without killing the people and making "The World's Poorest Countries List". Meles will continue to treat the Ethiopian People badly because they let him. Ethiopians, look at it like this : under Meles you are going to die, so be like Al-Moudi and die for something. Boycott work, shut down the factories and march on Meles' palace. THE SOLDIERS CAN'T KILL ALL OF YOU! DAMN, THEY MIGHT EVEN HELP YOU!
Until then Diaspora, send money to your relatives in Ethiopia and marry their daughters. You don't understand the Meles philosophy.
Peace
Continute with your investments, man...don't even bother with this ancient monsters, people who move backward as the rest of the world moves forward.
Peace!
I read what most CUD fanatic supporters write with interest. However, most of their arguments does not hold any water.
In the outset, I am fully aware of the very fact that you and your political party i.e. CUD comes in different colours masquerading as an Ethiopian political organization representing the Ethiopian people.
It is a shame that you have not learned anything in the last decades.
In case if you guys have not also realised, in the current time Ethiopia, no one have any desire to impose any wishes on others, but we all have to be sure to determine and decide our fate and that decision is for all nations and nationalities to decide.
You (fanatic CUD supporters) just have to swallow the hard fact as WE WILL determine our fate and will not leave that decision to anybody else – certainly NOT for non-inclusive party i.e. CUD.
I guess you may not like to hear it BUT as I have argued my case in the past, the prime culprit among the causes for most of the turmoil Ethiopia experiencing right now is the unequal distribution of power and the lack of check and balance that prevents one group from dominating over the other as that was the case during the Haile Selassie and the Dergue era.
The current hate politics and CUD orchestrated violence is nothing but a sheer trust for power. Of-course it is sad people died, but be assured you can't change the federal system by violence even if CUD and their fanatic supporters bark and for the coming 100 years.
The days of ONE tribe dominating the others in the name of unity, has gone for good and never to come back again. You can't possibly oppress the nations and nationalities of Ethiopia, including the poor Amhara people in the name of a very disguised Ethiopian nationalism.
Furthermore, although I am not surprised as such, I am saddened by the moral decadence and cruelty of the extreme elements of the defunct CUD and the “so called Ethiopians in Diaspora”.
I am sure you guys celebrate and enjoy anything you think can hurt ETHIOPIA and her citizens.
The problem is you guys seems to be satisfied by your egos, and throw party to show how you care about Ethiopia.
Let me tell you, what caring for a motherland means and what I always dream about:
I always dream for something that is very lasting which belongs to the people of Ethiopia - regardless of their Ethnic origin or beliefs.
I strongly believe, we need a political institution that is based on democratic principles.
We want something that grows and not something that dwindles as years go by. We want a dynamic party that engages its people in its decision-making, envisions the future and inspires its people to ascend to greater heights.
We want leadership that listens to the voices of its people and prepares younger generation for the challenges of future leadership.
We want continuity and not faith in just one party OR individual –as keeping all your eggs in one basket is risky.
We want leadership that consults with its people and finds out what they think – at the grass-root level. We want a truly democratic party that attracts all of Ethiopians because of its ideas and promises.
We want a party that challenges its elite to get involved and lead – this should be extended to the rural part of Ethiopia too.
Above all we want a truly inclusive party that represents the whole of Ethiopia on equal footing around a round table of Ethiopian politics.
We want to lead ourselves within the bigger tent of Ethiopia and fight for political, economic and social interests of the whole of Ethiopia.
Just to add one more point to the equation.
Do you guys i.e. “Ethiopians in Diaspora”, really allow your individual as well as collective mind to be exploited by one group (such as CUD) and to be hijacked and used as an instrument in order that the group will facilitate its hideous agenda?
For the biggest enemy here is yours as well as mine wilful ignorance to the motives of others.
My last point: you and the rest un-reasonable "Diasporas" should know that, leaders will come and go, but our country will be there forever. We therefore must not confuse our hatred of the leadership with the good news from our country. After all even your “enemies” might also have good sides too.
Any meaningful thoughts?

The corrupted WOYANE leaders and their corrupted busiiness parteners are standing on the pulpet and preaching to the Ethiopian ppl. as if they are standing to eradicate poverty in the country. Whose poverty are they talking about? We know them what they used to look like the 1st time when they envade the country. And also we know how they used to live. If they are talking poverty among their own party, that is true. Now they are the one who is living not in a jungle but in the mantion, they are the one not eating dried bried but feeding themselves in one of the best restourant, they are the one not walking bare feet but driving one of the best and expensive luxury cars. They are the one not illitrate but sening their kids to one of the best and very expensive school. If that is they are standing for, I believe it is, that is true they have not only eradicated poverty but also they are rich. But for Ethiopian ppl, things are the same, may be worse. So we are telling the WOYANE and their partners, you are right and we know that you stand againest povert omong urself While we are suffering under your crul regim.
why do anybody contribute money to strength the party, tplf, tigrean people liberation front?
your paragraph which says,
"...I guess you may not like to hear it BUT as I have argued my case in the past, the prime culprit among the causes for most of the turmoil Ethiopia experiencing right now is the unequal distribution of power and the lack of check and balance that prevents one group from dominating over the other as that was the case during the Haile Selassie and the Dergue era."
worth million dollars.
You are driving in and out of traffic.
take care.
I rest my case.
SheikShik Alamudi contributed 5.5 million Birr for Tigray Parasitic Looting Front known as TPLF.
According to our sources this money, in conjunction with the other money, which the TPLF is stealing from Ethiopians, will be used to speed up the process of liberating the tigray people from...
Looks like a lot of TPLF paid supporters are deployed on the Internet to spread out the false propaganda of Meles' regime. I can tell who they are by the artificialness of their argument. They write too long and, I admit, they write very well because they are paid professionals. You can tell these by their unwaerin attacks on CUD. How many times do we have to tell these supporters of the TPLF. These freedom movent of the Ethiopians knows no boundaries, and knows no ethnicity. We are not standing for CUD, we are standing for freedom. On the other hand, youa re standing only for the TPLF and TPLF only. That is your signature.
Again, we want to remind you, this is the movement of all the people of Ethiopia for freedom. Take heed!
Forget talking about the CUD, instead start talking about us, the people of Ethiopia. We are the ones who want TPLF out immediately and unconditionally. We also, of course, demand the immediate release of ALL political prisoners, including the CUD leaders.
Thank you!
The People of Ethiopia Will be Victorious!!!
Shek Al Muheden the Bill Gate of Ethiopia told us yesterday that he is a supporter of TPLF and he put his wealth to the service of TPLF.
I have no problem of one person supporting whatever political or civic organization he chooses to advance his cause in this case huge investiment interest of Ala Muhedin.
We are also entitled to fight for our cause including boycotting the business of those who kill and terrorize our people.
This will bring us in collision course with Sheik Ala Muhdin. The money spent in supporting the killing machine of TPLF by Sheik Ala Muhdin could have been spent to buy life saving HIV medicine and that would have brought a great admiration from a lot of Ethioipians for Sheik Ala Muhdin.
Supporting Melese Zenawi at this time made me to change my mind about you and I will never do any business with you until you apologize for the Ethiopian people.
Tedla
Maa Selama!!!
That is exactly my sentiment about Zena's illusions. Indeed he is driving in and out of traffic.

I say the above as I always read a loathsome words which reflect your odious personality.
Furthermore, your ill judgement magnifies your low life as well as your immature personality.
I therfore say you need to pass through a process of natural growth; so that you can express your actual existence better.

Tell these TPLF cadres what we Ethiopians are saying. We want what the people of Ethiopia want. We want an elected government to be in power. We don’t care if it is CUD, ABC, TLF, even EPRDF.
If you argue that EPRDF is elected by the people, I like to hear your argument. Why don't you, we know it all, EPRDF cadres tell us your take on this instead of talking about CUD did this CUD did that. If you have substance to pass on do it. Don't just have a diarrhea of the mouth.
Why don't you go to Tora Bora Mountains & join your child hood hero Sheik Biladin instead of opening your stinky mouth?
Alternatively why don’t go to Iraq where people like you are more than well come.
Just get the hell out off here!!!
Alamudin made a great mistake by helping racist government .Because nowdays woyane is condemned all over the country and the world due to its racist character ,killing and detaining innocent people , SO WHY ,alamoudin, u support this dictator government ?? woyane government is temporary .And so it is better to be side with the suffered people .
You wrote above "Above all we want a truly inclusive party that represents the whole of Ethiopia on equal footing around a round table of Ethiopian politics" and more about what we Ethiopian need in a political party. So, is that party EPRDF. Does EPRDF fit you description of the ideal pary you described. Why don't you say that if it does. If it does't why don't you say some thing about it. Since you said what we it means EPRDF is do not fit the bill. So why don't you say so. We know why you don't, because you are here only to talk about CUD and how bad it is. If you are for real and truthfull you would say some thing about this. Lets hear it Mr.
Listen audiances. This tugs don't answer questions like this because they are here to mawenabed people like you. They don't like when confronted with the truth. They just like to talk about evry thing but no thing specific like a delala.
I do not think Alamoudin is an Ethiopian,he is just an Arab who came to Ethiopia to enslave us like every Arab in the Arab world is doing to our girls.Guys do you remeber this article,
"Arab states treat Ethiopians as slaves: IOM
ADDIS ABABA, Oct 20: Ethiopian women and girls who travel to the Middle East in search of work are often treated like slaves and abused sexually, the International Organisation for Migration (IMO) said.
“Ethiopian women and girls who migrate to Lebanon, Egypt, Yemen and Saudi Arabia suffer from maltreatment, physical, sexual and emotional abuses,” the IMO said in a report based on interviews with 443 women returning from the region.
Some 130,000 Ethiopian women and children have migrated to the Gulf States and other parts of the region looking for work, the organisation said the report, which was issued on Wednesday.
“Extreme cases of physical trauma, death and suicide had also been reported as consequences of physical, emotional and sexual abuses of young girls and women who migrated to the Gulf states,” the IOM said."
Mohammed is not like most of us.He has a lot of wealth in Ethiopia and else where.TPLF could destroy it with in a short time.it is the responsiblity of Mohammed to takecare of such things in what ever means possible.After TPLF we have a lot to do towards our economy.Mohammed's and other companies are useful to Ethiopians economic development.Mohammed used to give money TPLF and other individuals and he is doing it now after the may election.What is the difference for a person like him?I think he knows and understand what TPLF is composed of.He knows them more than anybody.As long as mohammed has one vote in Ethiopian condtion I don't see any problem.Mohammed is not our problem.Our main problem is TPLF's not trying to negotiate with the oppostion.TPLF should free political prisoners.TPLF should stop thinking by force.
If possible Mohammed should try to come in the middle to stop such problem in the country.I am sure he loves his people and his country.By no means he could not be Ethiopians enemy.It is clear that such money could not be a solution for TPLF's problems.
God bless Ethiopia!!
You questioned whether EPRDF is an inclusive party or NOT.
I say absolutely it is. It certinly is more inclusive than CUD.
May be you do-not want to admit it but CUD is a very shallow Ethnic based party - disguised as an inclusive party.
Furthermore, the reality is - CUD is populated by narrow minded individuals with no inclusiveness insight.
Unless, we count their (i.e. CUDs( futile attempt to bring one Oromo (Like Wzo. Birtukan Demiekesa, one Tigrean Dr, Haliu Araya and one Gurage Dr. Berhaunu Nega) and tell us they represent the whole of Ethiopia - as we all know however, this is too far from the reality.
To me CUDs approach is not genuine and do-not bear any inclusiveness what so ever. Furthermore, your party CUD is - the legacy of your tribal thugs which is death and destruction.
To tell you bluntly, you guys are barking like a mad dog. Don't you still realise the very fact that the Ethiopian people pay the life of millions to uproot your rotten system?
AAPO with the new name CUD orchestrated violence is nothing but a sheer trust for power.
I am saddened for the dead but be assured you can't change the federal system even if you bark and incite violence for the coming 100 years.
Your days are gone for good and never to come back again. You can't possibly oppress the nations and nationalities of Ethiopia, including the poor Amhara people in the name of a very disguised Ethiopian nationalism.
I would therefore like to take this opportunity to remind you ONE thing and ONE thing only.
Various liberation fronts mashromed in the present time Ethiopia well before EPRDF came to power. Here I can easily sight, APLF; ONLF; OLF; TPLF even EPLF.
I therefore conclude by saying: CUD is nothing but the “left over” of your historical leaders.

What are you saying you gang-CUD-empty-headed, hopelesses? ha..ha..ha Don't you lose hope? Why do you cry of the splitted milk? I am so surprised when I see such people. Who are you talking about? Is it about the already fragmented party-CUD? Wonderful, It is rather advisable to be aware of the facts rather than roaring for nothing!! Why do you cry for the dead donkey while there is a living lion? You will be the only "pity ethiopians" in the whole of your life for your dreams for sure will not come true merely due to the so called "scholars" but really fragile, ever racist and "easy to cheat" peoples of you.I feel pity of you but it is true that your dream is already solved wrong. But I and people like me will be happy of struggling for the prosperity of the modern ethiopia-not ethiopia like in your case and we deadly love TPLF/EPRDF for it has shown us the right route to the actual ethiopianism. You will no more be insects of our country as you were yesterday. I know it is hard for you but be more than sure that you will always be roaring, roaring but for nothing. I think EPRDF's biggest success is in this way that Amharanized ethiopia is no more possible. Forget this, this is not matter of discussion now but the issue is how to preserve the golden ethio-born parties like TPLF. It is just by the way how the great home land lover, his excellency, is doing. There couldn't be an investment better than this! Bravo sir!
Why do you talk about EPRDF is more inclusive than CUD. Who ask you about that. All I asked you was is EPRDF ellected by the people or not. Why don't you say YES or NO. A very simple question. Don't tell me about CUD or any other jargen. If you tell me EPRDF is better for Ethiopia than CUD that is another story. But that is not what I am asking you. Who are you to tell the ethiopian people EPRDF is better for them. What we want is let the ETHIOPIAN people chose. I will say it again and again and again LET THE ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE CHOSE WHO THEY WANT. What is it you are afraid of. Do you want the people to chose who their leader to be. Do you have a problem with that. Do you have a broblem with that boddy. I am sure you do. You know why, because the people have made their choise and they will again.
Answer this question only. DO YOU WANT THE PEOPLE TO CHOSE OR NOT. IF YOU DO, HOW DO THEY CHOSE. DO YOU HAVE A SUGGESTION Einstein.
Cheers
We all know his economical clout in our fragile and small Ethiopian Economy. Meles as usual has right words and told investors (Aloumudi) that he is his modern day cannon: True, Sheik Almoudi has been brainwashed by powerful Meles’ tongue for a while now:
Meles presents himself to Almoudi as the first Ethiopian leader who is extra sensitive to the needs of Ethiopian Moslems! That has been perfect sales pitch that convinced Alamoudi to support TPLF till the end!! Alamoudi to achieve his vast investment objectives , he tried to portray himself as genuine Ethiopian whose only interest to invest in Ethiopia and see this impoverished country prosper! To achieve his objective, he started to recruit famous Ethiopian entertainers like Tilahun Gessese and Tamagne Beyene by rewarding them with gifts and large sum of money. His strategy worked really well.
Alamode being a savvy business man, he understood the importance of winning fans in Diaspora Ethiopian community. He organized music troupes led by Tamagne and Tilanhun and other famous Ethiopian entertainers to make whirlwind tour around the world and sell the good name of Sheik Alamoudi and he indeed succeeded in earning himself a name” chosen Ethiopian son” or as Meles would like to call him “Mirtu Yethiopia lej”
The ground works were finalized, and then Alamoudi started his heavy investment in Ethiopia with eye of controlling every key sector in the Economy. This wasn’t that hard for a man who ranked number forty in fortune magazine that futures world’s richest men/women. To achieve this he made sure that he pleases Meles in anyway he could. And Meles responded to all the perks, kickbacks and political support from the Sheik with very attractive investment opportunities for the “chosen son”. Alamoudi’s savvy way of handling and convincing Ethiopians who are pro and anti of the sitting government passed with flying colors and the Sheik started building his business empire in Ethiopia at speed light. In fourteen years he now controls business that touches every aspect of Ethiopia economical activities. To name few: Trans National Air ways, MIDROC Gold, MIDROC ELFORA, MIDROC KOPSI, MIDROC MBI, MIDROC HUDA(REALSTATE), MIDROC DEPARTMENT STORE, THE GRAND SHERATON and the list goes on and on. His future empire is clear. He wants to built unshakable business empire and make sure the religion balance tilted and assure the Ethiopian Moslems that the so called Christian island and Christian Ethiopia is a myth and tell them you have more share of the pie in the country!! Toa achieve this goal he will continue to support the regime that so far has been helpful to his ambition1 His support is not limited internally, but he also has been very helpful to Meles’s regime by hiring top paid lobbyists in USA and European capitals. For instance his recent decision to accompany Meles to Brussels is an ample example on how much emphasis is putting on the survival of Meles’ regime to see the realization of his grandeur ambition in Ethiopia.
Not many people know that Alamoudi played pivotal role in saving Meles during the chaotic division among TPLF central committee. At that crucial time, Alamoudi who was in Europe flew his jet to Addis Ababa to rescue Meles and he did that by showering many of TPLF central committee that sided with Meles with large amount of money and business loans to start their own little empires in transportation and other business. By doing that and also convincing active CIA agents in Addis Ababa that Meles is their man in Ethiopia, Meles came out the winner and undisputed champion!!
Many Ethiopians were surprised when they saw Alamoudi wearing EPRDF’s T-shirt with flying bee pasted on it! However, for those of us who have been closely following his link with Meles wasn’t surprising but assurance of Alamoudi’s strategic alliance with Meles’s regime. Now there is rumor flowing around Meles and Alamoudi have set special task force to fight the “Diaspora propaganda” with all their might. To realize this objective, the sheik pledged around ten million dollars to fight the so called “Diaspora propagandists” by hiring top notch lobby firms, employing IT to the maximum to fight back the Diaspora opponents, and also trying to buy mercenaries within Diaspora ranks and files that promote the need to accept Meles’ regime constitution and federal democracy.
To sum up, when Alamoudi proclaimed openly that he will fight to death for the survival of TPLF, he means business!! So Diaspora Ethiopians how do we face this 800 pound gorilla who is allying with the killers of children, pregnant women, elderly men and women???
Gentelemen,
Al Amoudin is the cover name for TPLF companies. It is not his money.it is the money of Ethiopian people. The end. Do not be cheated.
Sheraton Hotel is operating according to the business form-franchising.
Al Amoudin represents TPLF ruling clique at the top of the business.
This is the way how they are doing their business.
Sheraton is only for the Haves Not for the Have Nots.
be careful.
You are so foolish if you are trying to tell us about TPLF.
Do you think TPLF represent Ethiopians?If You think so for real that shows you are weak.
As long as we know the key post in the country is in the hands of Ertrian TPLF members.Please try to understand the present before going to the future.The present is more important than the future.What is the difference for Ethiopians between Tigrian and Amharian Administration.
According to your analysis:
If we Ethiopians prefer Amharians over tigrians for adminstration why not you respect our vote.
Don't blame the past for your problems.
God bless Ethiopia!
Are you still asking whether EPRDF has won the election? CUD leaders know that EPRDF has won the election. They knew it even before the voting was completed. They simply rsorted to violence because that is what they advised to do by Negede Gobeze and that is what they have preparing to do.Remember Hailu Showel gave an interview to BBC in mid afternoon of the voting day and dismissed the election invited Ethiopians for an uprising. So, don't keep on asking foolish questions forever.
Give 5.5 Mln. Birr and get 12 Mln. Birr in return This man invested billiones in Ethiopia.
the amount of investment he is doing is the key to the country's future.
Unlike some of us, on the web,the man is a free man to do the right thing he wishes to do.
Sheik Insha-alah. God gave alot of trumpets/turumbawoch/ and one of you to Ethiopia.You will preveal and succeed they will still be talking.What is under your shoes.
GO ON DOING WHAT YOU GOOD AT BUILDING YOUR HOME AND OURS and please do pay no mind to the 'gundans'that iritates the normal thinking process.
Are you telling us that he is the only free man alive?
take care.
Tell me who voted for EPRDF. Is it the Oromo regin or the Amhara region that voted for him. With have no shame when you say it was a fair ellection. If they are ellected by the people fair and square what are they worried about blocking all independent media, Internet jornalists and so on. If the majority of the people ellected EPRDF they have noting to worry about. WHY DO THEY PUT ANY ONE WHO SAY SOME TING BAD ABOUT THEM IN PRISON. IS IT BECAUSE IT IS THE LAW NOT TO SAY ANY THING BAD ABOUT EPRDF? OR IS IT PECAUSE THEY ARE ELLECTED DEMOCRATICLY BY THE PEOPLE AND BECAUSE OF THAT THEY ARE ABOUVE THE PEOPLE WHO ELLECTED THEM.
One thing I want to know is, some of you claim EPRDF is ellected fairly by the people. It means it is Democratecly ellected government. If that is the case then the government is a democratic government. If the people ellected the gov. they should be able to criticize it also. So do you think I can say any thing about the government using my democratioc right and your democratic government will be OK with it. I am not talking about saying any thing I want, I am saying criticize the government that they killed inocent people and they are corraptted and so on. Do you think I can get away with it. The answer is big NO. See that is where you fulish argument falles apart. You try to act like we just want EPRDF to go away to we can have CUD. That is what you want some nive people to think. I am not sure waht CUD stands for or dont stand for. That is my list conserns. I don't care if it become in power or not. All we Ethiopians wants is an democracy to say what we want and not worry about backlash. If EPRDF is ellected I will accept them as long as they don't think they are above the law do what they want as if it is yenatu guada yegeba yemesel. No way hozea. We had 17 years of bandits rule during mengestu. Now we have kehades from north with shbea backing to suck the remaining blood of the Ethiopian people. No way, the people are not fools any more. You can take cover in democracy but your rotten hodeka or kerse will be desplayed to the world very soon
Any body can tell me that What Gragn Mohammed did to Ethiopia?
Do you think somebody is following his foot step to do the same?
I know nobody will say something, because he has a very long hand so that he will do what ever he want.
We have to find a way to get ride of those Gragns' and then Our 'Holy Land" will be blessed. This has nothing to do with our true Muslim brothers and sisters, we love them we will live together for ever as ALAH and God wills.
God Bless Ethiopia.
Do you remmember the remark that the meaning of life is free,but the price of success will cost you.
meaning, freedom in regards of what?to live, to work, to elect,...
u see 'wubet ende temelkachu new'
(I'm at work i didn't follow up in a timely manner)
When we say something he jumps and say DOWN WITH EPRDF. Buddy find another song. A lot of us are looking for a change to our country, the problem is that some of us don't think CUDP doesn't have what it takes, or it is not the party we consider an alternative. WHY SHOULD THAT BE A PROBLEM???
HEY, Every shit you write is an opinion and we respect that. don't just stand up and you know things for sure. That is why the CUDP did not win the election (stolen or not). LACK OF EVIDENCE BUDDY.
love you all
We have to take actions to get back our lands property he can cary and go his evel's works from Ethiopia. He should know We don't want him no more. He should return all our properties and take is ugly dides from our Holly land. We don't have places for evels like Seremutaw Alamudin and the fucken Meles
watch out people of ethiopia here comes the "fox".
is that right?some of you sound like children.
the money is ours! Does it include his shoes? the man is smart and hard worker,i know you for sure you can't be like him but try your best any way! work hard make your contribution for whoever you wish.(please that doesn't include Isaias afwork).
Ill minded like you create notarious suggestion,on the web or else where and annoys the real citizens.
the land he developed was there for as long as dirt.
the money, never was there for us it was either under your family'medeb'/we didn't have alga/ or swiss bank. when they die it dies with them.Alamudi put it for you to make (at least try)good of yourself;work hard.
the gift in individual right to assume the source of freedom to work and make money is fundamental.
to ansewer you question:yes it is our money but not directly, because he earned it to be his through commitment and hard work.
Kasa Kebede and another leader of the dead CUD are in Asmara talking with Afewoki on ways of getting rid of EPRDF.
What I am observing is that cursing, saying something that is negative and unacceptable use of language. If you believe in democracy, you accept what Al Humdin is beliving and doing ways of his business. Try to make him to understand and he could be your supporter onnly if you have better plan than Meles. Otherwise, say something that matured and inteligent people are saying and how they say.
Don't you wonder why people are not winning in any way of their movement. Let me give you a pice of mind.
1. They don't respect other people's opinion
2. They have hiden agenda. What they say is different from what they want and they do things that never in their plan. Whatever method comes if they think it may work for them, they do it. But they never plan a head of time how, when, if, and etc. that they only go one way. As Dr. Meles stated last year about CUDP, he said that CUDP only know how to destroy leading party but they did not know how the could be destroyed. It is true and whatever he says it happens. CUDP were told had been given enough time to be free. Don't you evaluate them and discard for what they ended up. As Isaid, to begin was good start but they did not have procedures and clear agendas. Thus, they forgot how the Intelgence and CIA of TPL/EPRDF works.
What I am trying to say about some of (commentators) is that don't just blame Meles or other supports of Meles by cursing is not going to change penny.
Leave Al Humodin alone he has to do he can do whatever works for him and he is the smartes person. If you care about Ethiopians, He is the one who has more than 600000 employes in Ethiopia.
Do you think Ethiopia belongs only to Christians? You can never kick out muslims from ethiopia. Muslim ethiopians are ethiopians and it is not necessary to speak about muslim brothers. Wether muslims are your brothers or not, they are not interrested to hear that. They are ethiopians and live in ethiopia but they are not your brothers but ethiopians!!!
You said: "Mike
Why don't you go to Tora Bora Mountains & join your child hood hero Sheik Biladin instead of opening your stinky mouth?
Alternatively why don?t go to Iraq where people like you are more than well come.
Just get the hell out off here!!!".
You can go to Tora Bora Mountains not I. Because I am ethiopian. You have problem because muslims are the richest in ethiopia and they control more or less the politics with business. You can bark like a dog and wash taxi.
You and TPLF/EPRDF murder a citizen and you say the cause of the death is the dead man! It is like beating your wife and saying she is responsible for the beating.
Yes the mafia regime is enriching its members by using the force available to it. This is there for all to see. It is rotten so bad that it can survive from now on only by brute force and lies.
The TPLF/EPRDF mafia regime closes businesses of its opponents, and jails its owners under the guise of “anti-corruption campaign”. It is this mafia regime that does the kidnapping, the torturing, the imprisoning, and even the killing of unarmed civilians. It is a regime that is corrupted to its core.
As no Ethiopian supports a day time robber, this mafia regime does not have an iota of support from the Ethiopian people, and it will fall down sooner than letter because of its illegitimacy and immorality.
Judges have been fired, suspended or reprimanded for being disobedient or unco-operative to the demands and orders of politicians. The constitution has effectively been suspended in order to create room for this campaign. Laws that were declared fascist and hence incongruent with the current setup, were suddenly resuscitated and put in full force. New proclamations were hastily enacted to cope up with the particular needs of a particular group. In the meantime, the whole system of law and justice has been reduced to a mere extension or rubber stamp of the executive.

It is crystal clear that the CUD thugs and Naftagna Amharas have hatred toward the major Ethiopian religion and its members: Muslims. It is wrong to hate people based on their believe and I for one, personnally, never support such act. We all need to respect one another, try to coexist in peace. In the past and at the present time, muslims have played so many important roles in our country's development, be it in economic, political, and cultural development. They are here to stay and continue to play in every thing for ever. The Naftagna Amhara thugs should understand that they are not going to solve their problem by attacking our muslim brothers and sisters. Instead, they will face unimaginable consequences for their act. At the same time, Muslim brothers and sisters in Ethiopia must rise to the occassion in order to protect their belonging, followers, and the system that supports it. There is no way of just sitting and watching what is going on in Ethiopia because as you can see things have changed over the years drastically. Muslims are becoming more and more a target for these thugs and derg remnents. So our muslim youths throughout Ethiopia should have the say and able to participate in every move that our country makes. Ethiopia belongs to all people of our country on equal basis but not one particular group. I have heard that muslims have been attacked by Naftagna Amharas for being siding with ruling party in Ethiopia. Muslims have every rights to say, support, be supported by existing system. So muslims in return should make contribution to the party's stand. It is like give and take. So be it. We cannot live in the old days of exclusion any more, so our muslim brothers and sisters have to stand firmly and protect themselves by uniting and standing together.
What was that? a party political broadcast? You better send it to walta.
You Tigrays tried to divide Us, Ethiopians based on our ethnicity but you couldn’t succeed. Now the Tigrewoch cadre like Wado, mike Bekele, zena & others are very desperate so they are trying their luck with religious division. I’m sure that will fail too.
Mike, (baby Biladin)
We love our Muslim Brothers, what we don't want is those who advocate terrorism & religious extremism.
I am very sad by the hitrations occured amount long linked people of ethiopia.
This will not take us even a walk.
Please think over it and come with unbaised mind.
Don't say always we should lead thje country.
You said: "Mike, (baby Biladin)
We love our Muslim Brothers, what we don't want is those who advocate terrorism & religious extremism".
It is not terrorism or religious extremism. It is simply fact that christians in ethiopia dictate the whole time about ethiopia. They never take ethiopian muslims as political brothers but only as someone who lives there with GreenCard without a right to participate in political decisions.
You Amharas thougt you are the best race in ethiopia and feel superior at the end Tigray shows you your bad sides and you loose the war. Since Amhara looses war ethiopian muslims start to live more happy than any time bevor and start slowly to participate in ethiopian politics.
But you ignore until now muslims, please do not make the same mistakes again as you make with ignoring Tigray !!!
Did you say "That is why the CUDP did not win the election (stolen or not). LACK OF EVIDENCE BUDDY."
This is a MAJOR STEP you took admitting that EPRDF have stolen the election. Like an alcoholic you have taken the first step which is to admit you have a problem. Since now you have admitted you are supporting thieves and muggers there will be not ambiguity what you kehadis are all about. You think EPRDF will be in power forever? Not at all. When the day comes you will be running like a headless chicken to get away from the country. Didn't you see what happened to the Derge cadres. The sad thing is idiots like you do not learn from the past. The smart ones are already leving the country before it gets worse. I am tolking about some high level officials are already leaving the country because they know they will be acountable in the future. You and the likes of you are just paper tigers. You just tramp you horns from a distance. In our history there were people like you that sold Ethiopia for the highest bidder, so we are not suprised to see people like you. There will always be some KEHADIS among us.
By the way at least I am consistent in what I say. And also may be you can't grasp the depth of my intellect with your house plant equivalent IQ
ps. i am consistent. i never said this and that about who really won the election, you just like to put lables on people. If you had not escape your E.S.L. classes, you would have not embarassed youself now. Dude you are not well equiped to discuss politics, specially democracy. It is not in you. ATINFERAFER, YIBKAH.
I still love you.
You call him gran Mohammed, but we muslims have so much respect for him. He freed our muslum brothers from the brutal ethiopian so called " christian leaders." I know there are some of you that think ethiopia belongs to christians only despite the fact muslims are the majority. i will tell you one of these days muslims will say the country belongs only to the muslims, when that happens don't forget you started it.
You don't get it do you?
I don't care what religion you practice!!! Christian, Muslim, wabisim, wadoism, woyaneism, bandaism, Traitorism or any other.
No one should be allowed to preach hate under the cover of religion. That is what you Tigrewoch are doing at the moment.
I have many Muslim friends all over the country, they are laughing on your stupid comments. They even think you are not a Muslim at all.
Real Muslim don't kiss Baby killer’s ass like you do.
P.S I hate Banda Tigres though, because they are enemy of Ethiopia!!!
i will tell you some more fact why
cud did not win the election.
1.luck of proresive programm and aim.
( its manifesto is full of hate propaganda against eprdf specially tplf/meles).
2.the candidate are not legtim.
(h.schawel was a derg mister. how the hell you think eprdf who fought derg will give power back to derg.
ilogical and non sense).
3.cud was not fair.
( cud was not serious to win the election. it was just a TRY so instade of bringig the ppl. about democracy and development the thought him how to inselt tigre, oromo and so on.)( they didnt even expect that they got so much )
4.they were not sexy enough to deal with opp. or any other ideas.
(they want to be alone in the parlament)( luck of fantasy and diplomacy. after all eprdf is the moter of democracy in eth.
5. to noarrow for eth. in the time bing.
6. their follwers and supporter dont belive in democracy. ( a lot of Junta and derg kids ).
so that you call yourself with a high IQ person, i am pretty sure that will be enough jus to wake you.

TODAY IS YE-ADWA DIL BEHAL. I KNOW SOME OF YOU LIKE MINILIK SOME OF YOU DON'T. WHATEVER THE REASON YOU LIKE HIM OR DISLIKE HIM, THE VICTORY WAS UNCONTESTED FOR THE ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE.
FOR THOSE WHO DON'T PRAISE HIM, THINK ABOUT WHAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE IF ITALY HAD COLONIZED US. EVERY LEADER HAS HIS/HER SHORTCOMES BUT THE VICTORY WAS NEITHER AMHARA'S, TIGREA'S, OROMO'S, CHRISTIANS', MUSLIMS' OR ANYONE'S FOR THAT MATTER. IT WAS ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE'S AND ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE ONLY.
FOR THOSE WHO PRAISE HIM, PLEASE DON'T BE HARSH ON PEOPLE WHO CRITICIZE HIM, AS IT IS THEIR RIGHT TO DO SO BY CONSTITUTION OR GOD GIVEN RIGHT. NO LEADER IN HISTORY HAS WON THE HEARTS OF THE ENTIRE NATION OR SATISFACTORILY GOVERNED THE ENTIRE ETHINICITY.
IF IT IS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK, LET US NOT FIGHT AMONG EACH OTHER JUST FOR TODAY.
LET'S POST NICE THINGS ABOUT OUR PEOPLE, OUR CULTURE, OUR DIVERSITY, AND SO ON...FORGET FU%^IN POLITICS TODAY, AS WE CELEBRATE ONE OF THE FEW MOMENTS ALL ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE UNITED. LET US REMEMEBER THOSE WHO SACRIFICED AND PASSED ON THIS LEGACY FOR US.
IF YOU CAN'T REFRAIN YOURSELF FROM WRITING NASTY THINGS JUST READ TODAY AND BRAINSTORM FOR TOMORROW.
PEACE TO ALL ETHIPIANS
LOVE YONI
I know buddy you can't defend your position for too long because it is like trying to build a house on sand, it never materializes.
By the way, you are absolutely right about me not taking ESL. I didn't need it like you.
What you are lacking is not communication skill, it is common sense. The sad thing is they don't teach that any where.
I will no pick on you any more.
Peace
U STILL LOVE ME RIGHT?
I can't comment on your resposne. Please read what you wrote and tell me if you really think what you wrote is not stupid. They were not serious (talking about CUD) candidates were not legt, they were not fair. Who is the judge here, you? If the people want the Derge back they have the right, whether your EPRDF shade their blood for or not. See everyone this is the argument of these cadres and Bandas. This is what I was talking about YONI. When you guys try to go deep in your position your true color will show up.
EVERYONE NOW YOU DON'T NEED ANY PROOOF WAHT THIS AGER KEHADEWOCH.
Please wake up my friend. It is time to understand and accept the reality that the majority of ethiopian citizens are muslims. Therefore, when there is democracy in ethiopia then the majority of parlament must be muslims. When you do not accept that, then you are not for democracy !!!
I am trying to help you and your friends to find your selves. It kills me to see my brothers selling out their sole to the Devil (EPRDF).
I sill love you as much as you love me.
PEACE.
a party loses an election only when the people decides not to chose it. It is not because of your six so called reasons you described above. What you described are reasons why EPRDF did not want CUD to be in power. Isn't that correct Mr. expert
I just want to help out my brother. That is all.
bye for now (not bay)
For the sake of broadning our understanding and deal with the savage tactics meles and the network are using: religion, ethinicity, income, gender, education...etc, using Wado and the likes, to create division, hatred, and start civil war.
Wadoism
WA.DO.ISM( P )
Pronunciation Key (we a duo-lzm)
n.
Intention to create animosity, civil war using differences in ethnicity and religion when ever it is needed.
The belief that Government or any entity will benefit from acting undemocratically emphasizing narrow individual interest and ego rather than national goals.
Aspirations for narrow interest in a country under undemocratic and stalinist government.
take care
It is as simple as you said. That is how the west ruled the world and continue to rule. Look what they are doning in Iraq. They divided the moslimes in to Suni and Sheits and distroy their country. That is the oldes trick in the book, it always works. It uses humans imotion as a catalist to drive wage among brothers like you and me.
Look what they did to Eriteria and Ethiopia. That was not enough now they want Tigrains, Amhara, and Oromo to eat each other alive. You know how it works? They pay some greedy pig among us to create conflict. The only way we can stop them is by being united and not to fall in thir traps.
Be strong my fellow Ethiopians. Stay together and think of the future with out being distracted by old wondes and fellings. Just think of what Mandela did. Insteade of taking the country in revenge path he chose to take them to the future. Can you imagen that. Can you imagine what they went thru but still chose not to look back. Please someone tell me you absolutely understand that.
first change your name, u dont deserve to be called mike since it is derived from Michael, and apparently u are too little for that kind of name!!
Second, religion should serve the people to live in peace, love and harmony, u can understand what i am saying We shouldnt serve religion. unfortunately, some of you dont have the capacity to see things that way! u must have a rotten brain to think that christian ethiopians are not brothers, but muslims in the middle east are the beloved of yours. i must thank God that for the fact ethiopia has only a few of u. i know brotherly ethiopian muslims, and no one really wants to be your brother except the devil himself.
may god help you to understand what religion really is!!
Wadoism!
What do you mean by that?
Do yo know what Wado means?
Where is it from?
You better add more: General Wado? The true lion if you know it.
Hadhakee ni selaa.Dua tigre ha dharaw.Tortoraa tigre.Hudduu abba ke sali.You stupid agame,you are pretending as if you are oromo you oromo killers,you can never have the moral frame to speak for oromos.The day is coming when you are thrown to your grave till that you can play in my name.
Victory to the people of Oromo.
Do you want to tell muslims must accept that ethiopia will be ruled only by christians. No, we are the majority.
Al-Amoudi is ethiopian, he live and die for ethiopia. He is muslim and ethiopian.
Al-Amoudi is ethiopian and works hard to invest for ethiopians and give work ethiopians. What do you do for ethiopian?
You can bark like a dog, but ethiopia wants to see the results and works of you and not your barking over Al-Amoudi.
Al-Amoudi teaches you how hard a muslim works and you Naftenga tells us historys about Menilik.
You are a little rat playing with cat. You F... your mam likenesh Tewodros that you the Naftagnas who normally do that not the legitimate Oromo national.
You have a big problem my friend. Christians and Muslims in Ethiopia are brothers and sisters to each other. Please leav this out. We Ethiopians have no problems with that.Why are you trying to instigate hate between brothers and sisters? Take you problem somewhere!
I will have to send these naftagna amharas' immigrants to their little dasty empty village sometime in the near future. My city: Finfine or Addis is belong to Oromo people not to you immigrant gypsises from dasty empty village in Gondar.
Naftagna Amharas are African Gypsises: Poor and unethical people!
Hate monger,who are you to tell people that..? tell me where are you from..u stupid ass.
It’s been some times since; I have surfing the net, to understand, to learn and connect my self in to my fellow Ethiopians, I try not to Wright but just read and pass, but I guess this is the time I should say some thing. Your nationalism, the love for your Ethiopia is commendable. In additions to this we need to look and open our eyes. That is IDEA – We should exchange information Ideas that could change our Mother Land Ethiopia. What type of Agriculture or Manufacturing should benefit the national growth, an idea how to become rich, an idea of invention to better the countryside from agro –economy. An idea to help the needy, the homeless, the national forest, how to protect the forest and the wild animals before we loose every thing. Brother and sisters, all I see from this and other site is F- this; F- that & most of the debate is about Alamudi Mohamed Hussein.Leave him alone,and let him do what GOD has made him to .He has done a lot,and we should't ask what did or what he did not.We need to change the name and image that has been tarnished with so many bad political,jelousy and ,Hate.
The Arab says: “Habash Anesh”. Why? When I was a little kid in Ethiopia my family told me the Hyena never let the other Hyena go after him, the reason is the other hyena will eat the front one. History repeats its self we are eating our people or trying to eat them. My final thought is as some writer said; “You can’t get there from here”. If you are looking for a better job, more money, life extra, go and get it. Stop dreaming. With love …
Who hell are you to ask me where I am from? I am from Oromia that all you need to know. F... your mam. Gada biss tultula! Why you change your Naftagna Amhara name any way? Atalayi! Theif!
