#UNGA #UNGAEthiopiaCrisis

When will the world’s leaders especially those in the UN US Africa and Europe wake up to the realities of TPLF’s horrific secessionist war in Ethiopia.

The credibility of the UN itself is on the line here.
This horrific massacre took place before the UNGA began. Ethiopian media have been reporting it for a week. Finally a Western media outlet @AP reports on it.

Nairobi’s media cohort have known about this since the first reports emerged on social media and Ethiopian TV.
The credibility of Western bastions of influence >> the US Govt. @StateDept the @EU_Commission @eu_eeas, the UK Govt. @BBCNews, the French Govt. The UN @WFP @UNHCRC & media & ngos @Amnesty @NyTimes @telegraph @washingtonpost @FRANCE24 are all in tatters.
All are still treating the TPLF as the victims, even though the truth of TPLF’s brutal war of vengeance against civilians has been in plain sight for months, since it invaded Ethiopia seeking to overthrow the Legitimate Govt in mid July saying so.
This week a document emerged in which the TPLF’s intentions in this war are spelled out in plain text, their blue-print for regime change. It was recovered from a laptop found in car with a dead TPLF leader in November 2020.

This evening Ethiopia will be addressing the UNGA.
The Government in the US and the Governments in the EU cannot pretend they did not know what the TPLF’s true nature was and is. It is clear in their own leaked diplomatic cables.

And they have actively engaged with the TPLF as Govt, of Ethiopia for three decades.
When Ethiopia speaks today the World’s diplomats and leaders better be listening, carefully. As must the media. This has to stop.

The crimes of TPLF armed forces against civilians, murder, rape and mayhem, must be held to account.
And the enablers of all of this, the Governments of the west and global institutions of the UN, and the international news media, who believed the lies told by the TPLF for the past 10 months will need to take a big long look at their own role in this.

What is @mkainerugaba up to? He's been on a very odd trajectory for the past week. Visiting Egypt and Somalia and retweeting TPLF UNGA propaganda.

This was just retweeted by @MohamedHRoble, the PM of Somalia who recently had his powers removed by Somalia President @M_Farmaajo.
Lt. Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba is the son of Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni, and Commander of Uganda Land Forces (UPDF), making him responsible for peacekeeping contingents, including AMISOM in Somalia.

Five days before @mkainerugaba's strange trip to Egypt and associated twitter activity, his father President Museveni issued a statement "ON THE MILITARY COUPS THAT HAVE RECENTLY TAKEN PLACE IN SOME
AFRICAN COUNTRIES" >> yowerikmuseveni.com/sites/default/…

Here's @AP's report on @DemekeHasen's speech to the #UNGA last night >> apnews.com/article/united…

But I find it rather confusing there are TPLF diplomatic letters in relation to a matter of life and death for 1000s of people in Ethiopia, which have not been made public.
This report covers several of the speeches made yesterday including that by Ethiopia Deputy PM and Foreign Minister @DemekeHasen. 12newsnow.com/article/news/n…
"Ethiopia Deputy Prime Minister Demeke Mekonnen, who rejected humanitarian concerns over Tigray as part of a “twisted propaganda campaign" in the embattled corner of northern Ethiopia." >> 12newsnow.com/article/news/n…

An unexpected pop up storm in the Arabian Sea may develop into a cyclone and head towards the Gulf. over #OMAN, #UAE and #Qatar.
The storm was not in the first GFS run this morning (00hrs UTC) but appeared in the following run at O6 UTC. Behind it there appears to be a second, possibly larger cyclonic system which is currently over the Bay of Bengal.
In this image you can see both storms. The one over the Bay of Bengal, currently designated depression O3B is expected to become a cyclonic storm shortly.

Dear @JoeNBC,

The issue with the submarine deal is NOT ABOUT SUBMARINES. Nor is it anything to do with the Election. This election is @EmmanuelMacron's to lose and his opponent is not Le Pen, it is the talented mayor of Paris, the Green/Socialist candidate Hidalgo. /1
The diplomatic crisis is with a) NATO and b) All of Europe. And it is about the US deciding to form a special relationship with the terrible Australian and UK Govt's both led by morons. And the decision to start a new cold war in the Pacific.
The issue for Europe has two legs to it.
- Europe does not appreciate being treated like chumps on the global stage as the U.S. is sabre rattling in the Pacific Ocean.
- Europe is focused on Climate Change, and addressing climate change is a multi-polar problem, China/EU/US.

As the #UNGA is focused on Climate Change the biosphere is putting on a show. We currently have powerful cyclones in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans and the yet more extreme weather, even though it's now late September.

Thread....
Today I have had a deep look around the globe after very active North Atlantic and a massive United States sized circulating low in Europe - exhibiting some of the same characteristics which resulted in severe flooding in July developed of East Europe.
Here's the big-picture view which includes:
- A cyclone in the West Pacific: forecast to become a Super Typhoon.
- A depression in the Bay of Bengal: forecast to become a Severe Cyclone.
- A hurricane in the Tropical Atlantic: forecast to become a Cat4 Hurricane.
