It is @martinplaut time! The #InformationLaundering-in-chief!
1/ Everyone knows about @martinplaut|s decades long love affair with #TPLF. However, you'd still be surprised by how crucial a node he is in the pro-#TPLF #InformationLaudering network.

2/ If @martinplaut is an artist of #InformationLaundering EritreaHub is his canvas. Since Nov 4, MP has published a whopping 257 articles on the website, in which he launders pro-#TPLF info he gathers from a diverse group of sources ranging from TMH & @addisstandard to @nytimes.
...These articles range from the dangerous to the ridiculous to the outright laughable. For eg. in one he claims that the 'Axum Massacre' was conducted by Amhara soldiers who have shouted "the ark belongs in Addis Ababa" who then proceeded to 'kill 750 civilians.' 
3/@martinplaut also published 188 posts for @EEPA_be which claims to be a think tank (another think tank 🤔) since Nov 4. Unfortunately, of his 188 posts, 174 received less than three comments and 98 got 0 comments and had to be discontinued since August. How embarrassing!
4/ Since Nov 4, @martinplaut has been cited as HOA 'expert' by 24 articles. @AlJazeera are his most avid customers, quoting him in 6 of their article on the war; ffd closely by @dw who cited him 4 times.
5/ Not surprisingly the #IrishDuo of @declanwalsh & @MarksSimon laundered his pro-#TPLF talking points through a couple of articles for the @Independent and @nytimes.
6/@martinplaut wrote 2 opinion pieces for @africaarguments, who unsurprisingly also hosted the now infamous call by 'African Scholars.'
7/ Other laundering outlets for the #InformationLaundering-in-chief include @FRANCE24, @TheTorontoSun, @guardian, @csmonitor & of course @CNN.
8/ In my opinion no one exemplifies the death of integrity and honesty in journalism better than @martinplaut a former @BBC editor who has been reduced to defending lying and looting. SAD!
