Oromia PP has lost touch with reality. Despicably corrupt officials have continued to weaken our country's social integrity with apparent impunity. They are cold-bloodedly overseeing the massacre of thousands of citizens across the region, which is largely tumultuous & perilous.
The cover-up of the Borana famine, which has starved over 800,000 people & killed 3.3 million cattle, while the regional politicians feasted on misappropriated public resources, shows how greed & ego animate the myopic & regressive politics of the region.
Their ill-fated attempts to dominate state institutions & commandeer the economy under the guise of following Oromo political interests, as well as forcefully reshaping the civil society structure, particularly in AA and Oromia, are pushing Ethiopia to the brink of civil war.
The Mayor's allegation of a coup by people entering AA from other regions is a veiled assault on certain groups of people who are regularly denied access to the city. This is a false excuse for the city's & Oromia region's infringement on citizens' human and political rights.
The recent forceful attempt by Oromia regional & local officials to split, subdue, and reorganize #EOTC in the image of their ethnocentric politics exemplifies their desire to usurp the State and civil society to service their erroneous political agenda & insatiable greed.

It might seem a weak argument, but🫣

Context 1:

OPP is hijacked by a network of corrupt & more radical ethno-nationalists

The network grew while the PM focused on the war

Some in the network used to be the PM’s close allies in tackling a faction opposed to the inception of PP
(Background) OPP started competing with more radical groups in its last days as OPDO & eventually adopted full blown ethnocentric practices

Those radical political groups (excl. OLF-A) have been paralyzed, but the faction within OPP has refused to embrace a moderate approach
The network has also harbored (turned itself into) ferociously corrupt & unruly officials that are behind most of the crimes & lawlessness we’ve witnessed over the past 3 years

No wonder, some of them even chose to directly work with OLF-A

In the initial phase of the peace talks, TPLF wants nothing but a ceasefire.

Here is why:
TPLF leaders understand that they have hardly any bargaining power to demand political concessions at this point. They cannot put pressure on the Government for a respite, either.
Thus, the West threatens Ethiopia with harsher economic and diplomatic sanctions to fill TPLF's void. Like TPLF, its priority is forcing a truce in one way or another.

በ3ኛዉ ዙር ወረራ

"በፍጥነትና በከፍተኛ የሰዉ ማዕበል በአማራ እና አፋር ክልሎች ያሉ ቦታዎችን በመቆጣጠር በተሻለ ቁመና ወደ ንግግር ጠረጴዛ በመምጣት የወልቃይት እና መሰል አከባቢዎችን ማስመለስ"

የሚለው የሕወሃት ዕቅድ እየከሸፈ ይመስላል።

1/
ምክንያቱም የኢትዮጵያ ኃይሎችና የየአከባቢው ማኅበረሰብ በላቀ ቁመና እና መስዋዕትነት ተናበው መስራታቸው ሲሆን

ቀንደኛ የሕወሃት የፖለቲካና ወታደራዊ አመራሮች ለሰፊ ጥቃት መጋለጥ ደግሞ የአመራር እና የስነ ልቦና ክፍተት ሳይፈጥር አልቀረም።

2/
ሕወሃት ይህን ወረራ የጀመረዉ

በዘረፈዉ ነዳጅ የደረሰበትን ውግዘት በማስተባበል

የAUን አደራዳሪነት በማጣጣል

ፍላጎቱን በጦርነት ለማግኘት እየተዘጋጀ እንደሆነ በመዛት ስለሆነ

ወዳጆቹ የተጎጂነት ትርክቱን በሰፊው ሊያራግቡለት አልቻሉም።

የሕወሃት የ3ኛዉ ዙር ወረራ ዋና ምክንያት:

በአፋር እና አማራ ክልሎች ተጨማሪ ቦታዎችን በመያዝ ለሰላም ንግግሩ የመደራደር አቅሙን ለማሳደግ እና እነዚህን በተጨማሪ የሚያዙ ቦታዎች ለቆ ለመዉጣት የወልቃይትን መመለስ መጠየቅ እንዲያስችለው ነዉ።

1/
ለዚህም ብዙ ቦታዎችን በፍጥነት እና በከፍተኛ የሰዉ ማዕበል ወርሮ (የሚያልቀዉ አልቆ) ከተቆጣጠረ በኋላ ዳያስፖራው እና ምዕራባውያን አጋሮቹ ግጭቱ ባለበት እንዲቆም እና ሁለቱም አካላት በፍጥነት ወደ ድርድር እንዲገቡ ጫና ለመፍጠር ታስቧል።

2/
ሕወሃትም 'የመደራደር አቅሜን ይጨምሩልኛል' የሚላቸውን ቦታዎች እንደተቆጣጠረ ያለምንም ቅድመ ሁኔታ ለመደራደር እና ተኩስ ለማቆም መወሰኑን ያውጃል።

በዚህም የተሻለ አቋም (bargaining power) እንደሚኖረዉ አስቧል።

Evidence👇 — @cnni lied

@jaketapper, withdraw the report!
@nimaelbagir, resign!

Did TMH pay a whistleblower for the videos? NO🙄 04:35👇

CEO of TMH stated in a March 9 interview that they found the footage on diff't phones of dead & captured soldiers🤣
Did @cnni or @amnesty geolocate the place?👇

➡️ "..CNN was able to geolocate the video to a rugged clifftop three miles south of Mahibere Dego"

➡️ Oh, No! Alula already said in his March 9 interview that it happened at Mahibere Dego. (Check video @ 01:45)

➡️ How did he know?🤔
Alula hinted on March 9 that global media was behind him🤔

➡️ 00:05 — the media reported on Debre Abay & what the armed men were wearing & the language they spoke was important for the incrimination

➡️ 00:20 — the media were going to pick up the footage for global circulation

⛔️SORRY, @cnni is deceiving the world once again!

➡️ Despite its sensational presentation, the report itself admits 9 times that its claims could not be verified🙄

➡️ The video comes from several unrelated clips circulating on SM about a month ago😏

➡️ TPLF TV as its source?🤔
Did ENDF commit the mass killings? @cnni says that it cannot confirm👇

➡️ "videos... are difficult to authenticate"

➡️ "CNN does not have the original, raw footage to examine"

➡️ "If the soldiers in the... video are indeed Ethiopian National Defense Forces"
@cnni admits that it used at least 2 unrelated clips & the people are NOT the same🤔

➡️ "In one video, soldiers can be seen rounding up dozens of men & in another clip, the bodies of at least 11 men are piled... CNN has not been able to identify whether they are the same men."🙄
