Mirror mirror on the wall. ..

1/ This letter is not addressed to Ethiopians. Eleni is clearly more distressed about the prospect of losing her job than the prospect of being tried for treason.
That's the reason for her emphasizing that she attended the meeting in her 'personal capacity.' IMO this is equivalent to Bill Clinton claiming his affair with Monica Lewinsky was in his personal capacity!
2/ “Its also an honor to ... encourage him [Berhane] in what he is doing.” What exactly are you encouraging him about here? His role as 'TDF's representative in the N. hemisphere' or his leadership of the gang of 9 that vowed to 'dismantle' the current elected government?
3/ After labelling millions of fellow Ethiopians 'ultranationalist' and degrading their legitimate political stance as 'unitarist,' you expect us to believe that you and PDCI stand against hate speech and you are an 'independent' 'patriotic' Ethiopian?
4/ You also expect us to believe that your discussion of 'post transition Marshall Plan' has got nothing to do with the 'transition' expounded by 'Ambassador' Berhane?
5/ .@EleniGabre, finally, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but not many people in #Ethiopia know you exist or you made a fortune in their name; let alone refer to you as 'Doctor.' At least not until now.

And the mirror says..
You are the most treasonous of them all!!

#PreDebunkingNima

1, After thoroughly debunking Nima's #FakeHumeraMassacre I made these👇 outrageous predictions in a thread I tweeted on Sept 13 & 28.

2/ True to form, it is looking very likely that as predicted the TPLF-TMH-Nima hub has been working on producing a sequel. The stage is already set and the wheels are in motion. Nima/Berhe or someone from @CNN or another outlet will be directing the show.
3/ In the next few days Nima/Berhe and co. will be introducing their play in print and on TV. Unfortunately, I am afraid that some of my predictions might be coming true.

#NoMore Power for Power: a few thoughts on @politico's article on Samantha Power

politi.co/3c8X4wD via @politico
1. The lady is an opportunist! She never took responsibility for Libya and chose to avoid the spotlight when things went south in Afghanistan. For @PowerUSAID, the much vaunted phrase #DoNoHarm applies only for one person. Herself!
2. Power looking for ways to embarrass GOE, early on in the conflict makes you wonder what kind of diplomacy she is practicing, especially when it comes to #Africa and also showcases her bias against #Ethiopia from the get go.

#NoMore: read our lips

1/Admiral Stavridisj, the man who led the NATO Alliance from 2009 to 2013 as Supreme Allied Commander with responsibility for Afghanistan, Libya, the Balkans, Syria is calling for apparent US intervention in #Ethiopia.
2/ It appears the Admiral took the wrong lessons from this list of abject failures of US interventionalism. The Syrian crisis led to the resurgence of ISIS, Libya became a slave market and Afghanistan is in the hands of the Taliban. Impressive!
3/ The article started well before devolving into the usual mindless comparision with Yugoslavia. For the last time please stop comparing Ethiopia, a nation that was around for millennia with a country cobbled together from 3 preexisting nations in 1918 & lasted a mere 74 years!

1/This was a fascinating watch, as the interview went on @BeckyCNN got more and more incesnsed (a lot of eye rolling, face making and shouting) while @BilleneSeyoum kept hammering her points home with typical #Ethiopian dignity and a hint of bemusement. Ice cold!
2/ Becky's defense of CNN's investigative journalism was pathetic. May be she hasn't read Nimas report in full. Remember the forensic dentist?

What about @bethlehemfel going around liking @Gredas tweets? Is that part of @CNN reporting "carefully and methodically" @BeckyCNN? Image

#TheRosenthalMethod: how to tame an inconvenient truth through inaccuracies, errors and omissions

There are so many inaccuracies, errors and omissions in your oped that I have to go at it paragraph by paragraph.
1/ It all starts with the first sentence of the first paragraph! “Frequent, violent” regime changes in “recent decades” in Ethiopia?! The last regime change in Ethiopia was in 1991! 30 years ago! Setting the ground for the usual "African"narrative?!
2/ Here you are trying to create a parallel between Mengistu and Abiy. Mengistu was a military leader who came to power through a coup and his government was not loved by many Ethiopians. This was one of the reasons the TPLF managed to virtually walk into Addis.

#TheBoyWhoCriedWolf
Zecharias quotes a number of articles in an attempt to refute the Bekele-Bachelete report. Let's take a look at this remarkable pieces of long distance journalism. Shall we?!
1. The @latimes article by @berhe_lucy and @nabihbulos. Berhe is based in NAIROBI and Bulos is based in BEIRUT. They spoke to people who claim to have witnessed a massacre in Bora over the PHONE.
