1/ On Nov 2 Virginians will vote in the Gubernatorial Election. On Nov 4 #Ethiopians all over the world will hold a day of remembrance for the hundreds of Ethiopian soldiers massacred by the TPLF in the dead of night on Nov 4, 2020.
2/ Belatedly, both sides are scrambling to appeal to Ethiopians. #Ethiopians will not be swayed by vacous video messages or bland statements. Ethiopians demand change in US FP towards Ethiopia! Ethiopians demand action! So far the Biden admin has been found wanting!
3/ The current adminstartion's support for #TPLF and demonization of GOE is clear as daylight. The liberal political-media complex is working day and night against Ethiopia.
4/ A Democrat president has designated the situation in N Ethiopia as "an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat."
5/ Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy @AmbassadorRice was the person who gave the first official node to the TPLFs smear campaign alleging genocide.
His USAID director @PowerUSAID has consistently came out in support of TPLF positions.
6/ His ambassador to UN @USAmbUN has tried every possible trick in the book to provoke the anger of the UNSC towards Ethiopia.
His @StateDept has consistently endorsed TPLF preconditions for ceasefire.
7/ @senatorCardin (Democrat) of Maryland, a state the largest Ethiopian population in the US, has denounced airstrikes against TPLF positions but never spoke against #TPLF perpetrated #Amhara and #Afar massacres and atrocities.
8/ @Bradsherman (Democrat) from California with a very large Ethiopian community denounced 'humanitarian blockade against Tigray' and called for naval intervention but never uttered a word about the suffering of people of #Amhara and #Afar at the hands of #TPLF.
9/ @batten_von, who yapps incessantly on Twitter for removal of Ethiopia from AGOA & for sanctions against EAL & Ethiopian coffee is Commissioner of Statewide Health Coordinating Council of the DC confirmed by a Democrat, @MurielBowser! Ethiopians in DC - Est. 150,000 -250,000!
10/ The liberal media apparatus from @CNN and @nytimes to @crookedmedia and @democracynow have made sure that the story of millions displaced and brutalized in #Amhara and #Afar will never see the light of day.
11/ Obviously, everyone shall and will vote based on their conviction. Voting right for many Ethiopians is tantamount to endorsing many of the things that they abhor as Americans. However, the sad reality is Ethiopian Americans have been taken for granted by the liberals.
12/ The only way for Ethiopian Americans to make their voices heard and have their frustrations understood is to vote as a block and demonstrate clearly their displeasure at the current administration's frontal assault on #Ethiopia.
The choice is simple, but not easy: vote as a block and send a clear signal to the Democrats or witness your home succumb to a murderous cabal that is coming with unprecedented vengeance supported by the Biden administration.
This article written by a certainMoriah Assefa & published by @EthiopiaInsight aka @wdavison10 is an attempt at analysis that falls even below the abysmal standard set by many pseudo intellectuals in the pro-#TPLF camp.
1/ The writer dismisses every claim ever made about the geopolitical nature of the USGs stance regarding Ethiopia by branding them as conspiratorial, pseudo intellectual and propaganda.
Yet he doesn't put forward any credible reason why any of them aren't plausible explanstions except his conviction that they 'just are.' He just wants us to take his words for it!
1/ The attempt by Professor Moriarty to portray a couple of haystacks as targets of air bombardment was laughable and cringeworthy. However, I think it is a prequel to a more sinister #TPLF plan!
2/ We #Ethiopians know two things about TPLF. They are very predictable and very dogged! As the air bomanradement continues and the capacity of the #TPLF keeps getting degraded, I suspect they will resort to Plan C, which is committing unspeakable atrocities in #Tigray.
3/ The #TPLF might blow up residential areas or even shoot down a UN flight as @stesfa has predicted and lay the blame on #Ethiopia.
1. For the past eleven months, the pro-#Ethiopia camp has been screaming bloody murder regarding the virtually complete media blackout of Pro-#Ethiopian voices.
The media blackout and the negative coverage of #Ethiopia by the MSM has resulted in a cascading effect, leading astray not only ordinary citizens but also academicians who you think would know better.
For this thread, demonstrating the the media blackout, I have collaborated with another exceptionally talented Ethiopian, @Samriethio!
Thread #BadScience: activism masquerading as scholarship
Three scholars started out with a commendable research question: to see whether disinformation was being used in the ‘Tigray’ conflict by both sides! The bad news is they did a very bad job! Exceptionally bad!
For this thread I collaborated with the exceptionally talented @malesadin and here are our findings.
1/ In terms of methodology, the researchers used qualitative methods to contextualize their SM data analysis, but don’t give the details of the qualitative side of the research
This makes it almost impossible for other researchers to replicate their research and confirm or dis-confirm their findings. Why the authors chose to do this is anyone’s guess!
1/ @wdavison10’s favorite trope is his claim that he is an ‘Independent Analyst’ of all things #Ethiopian. So much so that he DM’d me following my previous thread👇 on him, saying that it was full of errors & inaccuracies.
I took his outrage seriously and asked @Kings_of_Nile to undertake a network analysis of Mr. @wdavison10's twitter outputs and interactions. If truly independent his network would have reasonably proportional representation from both camps. This is what we have uncovered!
1/ The expulsion of the seven UN workers have sparked a lot of controversy. This thread delves into the connection of one of them, Kwesi Sansculotte-Greenidge, with none other than Tsadkan G/Tensae.
2/ In 2011, South Sudan became the youngest nation in the world. Soon afterwards, Tsadkan, went to Juba as Security Sector Reform (SSR) advisor to the new SS government, employed by the UK Department of International Development and worked in Juba for several years.
3/ From 2011-14, Kwesi Sansculotte-Greenidge was Coordinator of ACCORD's South Sudan Initiative that focuses on SSR and was based in Juba!
