The silent genocide against the people of #Amhara in Ethiopia
=================
On June 9, 1991, OLF with the help of TPLF started slaughtering the people of #Amhara in Arsi at a place called #Arbagugu and #Bedeno

Read this report :– Link 👇👇👇

Since then thousands of #Amhara perished by joint forces of #TPLF & #OLF.
Bekaku Atnafu Taye made detailed research about the massacre.
Ethnic cleansing in Ethiopia
Journal of peace research by Author from Kotebe Metropolitan University in Addis Ababa researchgate.net/publication/32…
From 1991 to 2015 the following results of massacres happened across Oromia, Benishangul, and the SNNPR region of Guraferda against the people of #Amhara which were the crime amounting to ethnic cleansing and genocide. All was done by design.
It was not a curse nor was folklore. ImageImageImageImage
The following individuals were the ones commanding the massacre that occurred in Arbagugu and Bedeno from the report compiled by the title:–
The Hidden Massacre of Amharas & Christians in Arsi Compiled and distributed by Ethiopian Information Service Network {S.H.I.N.E}
Amsterdam, December 4, 1991
The people responsible for this massacre of people and the destruction of property are :
1) Mr. Kassim Hussien representative of the OLF in ARSI adadministrativeegion.
2) Mr. Abiyu Gilo representative of the OLF in the district of MERTI, HOMBA area.
3) Mr. Mohammed Kebir Adem otherwise known as Mohammed Moye a rich merchant in the district of Guna and member of the OLF.
4) Mr. Adem Abdulahi a very rich merchant of GEGU district and member of the OLF.
These four people are the general commanders and coordinators.
The following people are members of the OLF army who masterminded and led the OLF army that perpetrated the atrocities
1) Mr. Sultan Kedir
2) Mr. Reshad Feto
3) Mr. Ahmed Amane
4) Mr. Tutuna Kedir
5) Mr. Gibriel Sheik Mukthar
6) Mr. Geylana Hagihum
7) Mr. Sikuare Sane
At one point the Ethiopian transitional committee admitted the massacre and passed a resolution to bring the perpetrators to justice. Yet not a single individual was brought to justice to this day.
Our people's misery is lost in vain.

Watch this report
The cleansing project was not only weighed on the killing of individuals. It was and still is targeting #Amhara in all regards. Our identity, culture, language, profession, and livelihood.
The following elite university lectures were fired from their post for being an Amhara.
Read this report:-
42 Adiss Ababa university high-level instructors were made to go and leave their posts where they used to teach for. years based on their identity.

On the other hand, the cleansing project was also commenced in another twist.
The last official census of Ethiopia in 2007 showed about 2 million can't be accounted for in a census report & are reported as missing.
This was the admission of Samia Zekaria

In 27 years of Woyane rule, not a single individual was brought to face justice nor there was a desire to stop the massacre.

Anyone and everyone capable of wielding a machete and triggering a machine gun was allowed to carry out the cleansing project with impunity.
Then change prevailed on the skies of Ethiopia yet for our misfortune and bad reckoning that it was short-lived.

The anticipation and euphoria where our people labored for years to come vanishes into thin air almost with a blink of an eye.

The massacre returned and worsened.
From Shashemene, Agarfa, Asasa, Arsi Negele, Ziway(Batu), Jimma, Dera, Ataye , to Shewarobit by OLF_Shene with a new name
And
Maikadera, Agamsa,Chena, Kombolcha, Gashena, Flakit, Mersa and so many other places the massacre was renewed by TPLF forces.
In 1996, Gregory Stanton, then president of Genocide Watch, presented a paper to the U.S. State Department called The 10 Stages of Genocide.
The points were:–
1)Classification, 2)Symbolization, 3)Discrimination, 4)Dehumanization, 5)Organization, 6)Polarization, 7)Preparation
8)Persecution, 9)Extermination, and 10) Denial

Yet Stanton made clear that any government can prevent any genocide attempt before stage 5. If not it is impossible to prevent it but witnessing it happen in front of the eyes of any government.
Once Mrs. Gregorey Stanton made an interview with Abay media and pointed out that a genocide is happening and commencing in Ethiopia.

The following link was the full interview

In another instance, we were told by the late United Nations Kofi Annan that:–
"A genocide begins with the killing of one man – not for what he has done, but because of who he is."

Yet the massacre of hundreds and thousands of our people can't move the world but is neglected.
The following reports show the past four years of massacres across the borders of Oromia and Benishangul regional states.

Links :-

…heglobeandmail-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.theglo…
I brought the above articles and reports were some from hundreds and thousands of massacre reporting just for sake and for a little bit of understanding.

Above all these killings the property destruction and moral degradation brought an immense damage to the mind of our people.
And now in the past three days we are in morning the deaths and massacre of almost near to thousands of Amhara in Wollega , Ginbe woreda after our premier staged a dog-whistling campaign in front of the parliament.

The following is reports by International media outlets.
At last, if society can't analyze all this evidence about the lingering and silent genocide against the people of #Amhara in all accounts, nothing will.

This is systematic neglect to be a voice for our people while there is ample evidence and genocide survivors.
Yet in Darwin's theory of natural selection, when a species is overhunted for a long period over and over again, there is a tendency where the prey will develop a mechanism naturally to take the predators out for survival and balance of nature.
When that day comes there will never be a single individual to stand on the face of our people either for an explanation or condemnation

Before that,we are pleading with the government of Ethiopia, political parties, civic societies & international community to stop this madness

የአማራ ህዝብ ጭፍጨፋ ተጠያቂነት ከዶር አብይ አህመድ ራስ ላይ አይወርድም!
==================
ለውጡ የመጣ ሰሞን የወያኔን መንግስት ለመዋጋት ነፍት አንስተው እየተዋጋን ነበር ይሉ የነበሩ ሁለት ሀይሎች ወደ ሀገር እንዲገቡ ተፈቅዶ ነበር።
1) የግንቦት ሰባት አባላቶችና ተዋጊዎች ሲሆኑ
2) የኢነግ ሸኔ ታታቂዎች ነበሩ።
የግንቦት ሰባት ታጣቂዎች ጦራቸውን አውርደው ለተሀድሶ ካምፕ ገቡ። ግንቦት ሰባት ኤርትራ በረሀ በነበሩበት ሰአት አብዛሀኛው አባላቶቻቸው የአማራ ልጆች ነበሩ።
በዶር ብርሀኑ ነጋና በዘመነ ካሴ እንዲሁም በሌሎች ልጆች መካካል ተፈጥሮ የነበረው ቅራኔ በትግል ወቅት ከኤርትራ በረሀዎች የሚቀዳ ነበር።

እነኚህ ሀይሎች ጦር አውርደው ለተሀድሶ ካምፕ ቢገቡም ቃል የተገባላቸው ስልጠናም ሆነ የኢኮኖሚ ማቋቋሚያ

የአማራ ህዝባችን ሰቆቃ ይቆም ዘንድ ከተፈለገ የሁለት ነገሮችን እንቆቅልሽ መፍታት ግድ ይላል

1) የብልፅግና የኦሮሚያና የቤኒሻንጉል አስተዳደር እስካለ የህዝባችን ግድያ አይቆምም። ግድያና ማፈናቀሉ በብልፅግና የመንግስት መዋውር የሚደገፍ ስለሆነ
2) የአማራ ህዝብ ከክልሉም ውጪ ሆነ በክልሉ ውስጥ የሚደርስበትን በደል ለመመከትና ለመከላከል እንዳይችል ብአዴን/አዴፓ የሚባሉ የዘመን ጉዶች ህዝባችንን እጅ ከወርች አስረው ምንም እንዳይሰራ፣እንዳይደራጅና እንዳይመክት አድርገውታል።
ለ2ቱ ኬዞች ህዝባችን መፍትሄ ማበጀት ሲችል የህዝባችን መከራና ሰቆቃ ሊቆም የሚችልበት አድል ይኖራል

የፌደራል መንግስት የብዙ stakeholders ፍላጎት ስላለበት የመንግስቱን ሀሳብ መቀየር ከባድ ቢሆንም አዴፓን መታገል ግን የመጀመሪያ ስራ መሆን አለበት

This is the way how our people have been tricked and played in politics over and over and over again. As you think such kind of political
insanity on the perception and perspective of #Amhara, you will be disgusted and sick to your essence how our people always allotted as a sacrifice lamp for the power sustenance and continuity of inept politicians who are morality unfit and purposefully disgruntled.
The past five months of the #Woyane invasion was not a military drill nor was it a competition to flex muscle. It was a real-time disaster that has caused unquantified human suffering and unmonetized property damage. It is disingenuous at the same time a brazen attempt to

After thirty years of stretch, an opportunity to repair the fate and politics of the people of #Amhara is on our doorstep. One way or the other, this is a make it or break it a shot. Even if our representatives in politics and our elites in a scholarly position don't seem to
understand the urgency of unearthing a way out of a generational backlog of political problems for our people, it is now more than ever to stand up and rectify our fate with them or without them. This must be the last time for the people of #Amhara to carry the burden of the
political insanity of our country by themselves alone. It must have been a collective responsibility for all in the first place even if things always proved the contrary. In this short period of political crisis, we have witnessed slander after slander against our people by so

About negotiations
===============
Now, negotiation is the talk of the town. I am eagerly awaiting what would be the outcome and response of our government.

As it was difficult to speculate how things were gone astray back then, It is impossible to speculate even today either.
Nonetheless, we need to make our fear and uncertainty known to everyone for the record.

31 years ago, we have forfeited our political disposition due to lack of representation in the transition period as our people were disregarded with futile and at the same time deceitful
accusations as the ruling elite.  Our leaders in #ANDM were so much rubbish, they swapped and traded our people's existence, identity, integrity, and power for their political position and personal remuneration. Not only them but also the elite, the learned man of society were

The waiting negotiation paradoxes
=========================
When the unilateral ceasefire was declared for vague reasons, now it seems almost was a lie, #TPLFites never hurried to take the opportunity. They were rather hurried for invasion. I don't know what was the contingency
plan awaited to counter if the unilateral ceasefire fails to live up to the promises.

Now we are a witness, there was none. Yes, we can't afford to dwell on that issue anymore as the crisis is already developed into a question of life and death for the people of #Amhara.
However, on the other hand, #TPLFites regularly confessed and claimed apart from their desire to score points with the people of #Amhara and retaliate that their invasion was based on:–
1) creating a buffer zone
2) to grasp areas for future negotiations as a bargaining chip
