#TheRosenthalMethod: how to tame an inconvenient truth through inaccuracies, errors and omissions

There are so many inaccuracies, errors and omissions in your oped that I have to go at it paragraph by paragraph.
1/ It all starts with the first sentence of the first paragraph! “Frequent, violent” regime changes in “recent decades” in Ethiopia?! The last regime change in Ethiopia was in 1991! 30 years ago! Setting the ground for the usual "African"narrative?!
2/ Here you are trying to create a parallel between Mengistu and Abiy. Mengistu was a military leader who came to power through a coup and his government was not loved by many Ethiopians. This was one of the reasons the TPLF managed to virtually walk into Addis.
