The Curious Case of Mengistu Haile Mariam.
While perhaps not many people know that Mengistu was an Oromo, fewer still, know how that has impacted the internal structure of the Derg and the concerns that non-oromos felt.
Prepare to get your mind blown:

This is from the CIA records Document Number CIA-RDP79-00927A011300220001-4

Take away: It is clear that Mengistu had broken the yoke that bore heavy on the Oromo people. Which brings us to the most critical question: Given that their base accusation is thoroughly false and quite simply propaganda, whose interest is OLF truly serving?

Have we talked about an Anastasia AU yet? Like the Bluth one, like this Anastasia? CAN WE IF WE HAVEN’T?? 👀

Amanda as the grand duchess looking for the last member of her family, Connor as the long lost prince, Hank as the conman who also saved Connor’s life years ago during the siege when he worked as a steward in the palace,

and also Kamski as Rasputin bc that man is hundreds of years old held together by a pact with the devil and you can’t change my mind on that 😂

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.

This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

It seems an independent auditor came to Abu Salim today looking into UN activities. The guards told detainees in advance not to mention that they haven't been fed for months (some of their families are sending them money to buy food with instead, which guards take a cut from).

Messages today from Qasr bin Ghashir dc, southern Tripoli, today, where they’re asking for evacuation & any organisation that can help them.

Sorry for my confusion, the teenager above was being held in Qasr bin Ghashir, but has now been moved to the UNHCR facility in Tripoli for evacuation. He's asking for help for those he left behind.
