@TwitterSupport this one is for you. With more than 240K followers, here is @NatnaelMekonne7 demanding that people “Identify … Capture … And Clean Up” Tigrayans. This is a literal call for genocidal violence targeting a single ethnic group. 8 hrs and counting now …

For the people who are busy conjuring conspiracies about how #TigrayGenocide appeared so soon after Nov 4 2020 —

01/
In 2018, these TV personalities were very clear about the horrifying implications of "የቀን ጅብ" as dehumanizing language (~48m)

02/

Anybody who has studied language and violence understands this: dehumanizing language is an early indicator of oncoming violence.

And any sane and historically literate person would have seen what was coming as soon as it was obvious that "የቀን ጅብ" would go unchecked.
03/

Yes, the folks on the TV show were too cautious how they tiptoe around stating the obvious; and their criticism is a little too lukewarm for my liking, especially about Abiy's መደመር garbage and his rabid cult following.

Anyway, spare an hour and watch the full video.

Now, @fitsumareguy points out the connection between Sun Peak Metals and Nevsun:

"Canadian companies include Sun Peak Metals, whose President and CEO oversaw a mine in Eritrea where the company was accused of using slave labour"

Details:

Here's what that settlement implies:

"It's a precedent-setting case. It's the first time that level of human rights abuse has been brought before a Canadian court for the activities of a Canadian extractives company overseas."

THE 2017 OPINION THAT GETS PARADED AROUND AS FACT:

1/
By now, everyone must be sick and tired of hearing the "TPLF stole $30Billion + USA gave $30Billion in aid" story. PFDJ bootlickers and the cute-and-clevers are particularly fond of this story:
2/
If it the numbers and phrasing seem questionably convenient, it's because they are.

They are from a 2017 opinion piece by a David Steinman in the "Capital Flows" opinion column of Forbes.

"Capital Flows" hasn't published new pieces since Jan 2018.

Let's get to the meat and potatoes: the matter of the $30 billion.

In his op-ed, Steinman correctly sources the UN's report on IFOs. But his subsequent leap is what should have troubled any sane reader ages ago.

Remember Gérard Prunier's moment of brutal honesty on "The Debate" yesterday?

Here is a rather long 🧵 to try and unpack his statement, and hopefully clarify why we see a lot of mixed signals in what the US/EU/UN is (not) doing about #TigrayGenocide

1 —

That @AbiyAhmedAli could be a US plant should come as no surprise.

March 2019: US Amb Michael Raynor said, "We are embedding senior US government officials at key Ethiopian economic ministries and operations for a sustained period of time.”

June 2018: US delivers C-130 aircraft to Ethiopia.



“We are excited to deliver this C-130 at a time of such great optimism. This handover pays homage [...] lays the foundation for new possibilities for cooperation and interoperability.”

Remember when I promised you some longterm economic consequences?

"Ethiopian sovereign dollar-bonds dropped on Tuesday after Moody’s slashed the country’s rating to Caa1, citing a rising risk that private creditors were in line for losses ... The ratings agency kept Ethiopia’s rating on review for a further downgrade."

"Asked if the meagre interest showed lack of confidence in the government’s liberalisation effort, the person said: “When nobody shows up how else do you interpret it? When you refuse to write a cheque, you’re making a statement.”"

This a thread about 10 suggestions that are used to defend a massacre. Yes, a lot of it is eerily similar to the language and logic used by the #EthiopiaPrevails sheep to deny #TigrayGenocide and #AxumMassacre

Propaganda 101: How to Defend a Massacre ⬇️
1.
They will argue that the government has "clear objectives" and "surgical operations" that it has "achieved successfully," using bureaucratic language to disguise the brutality of their actions. #TigrayGenocide #AxumMassacre Image
2.
This one is easy. Everything from "diaspora disinformation campaigns" to "junta" to "paid actors" in order to discredit any legitimate critiques. #TigrayGenocide #AxumMassacre Image
