1/ The recent article by @lucykassa (an all-out TPLF supporter) & @geoffreyyork (whose support to TPLF is clear at a close look) is written in service of the #TPLFTerroristGroup. So why write about TPLF’s atrocities in Amhara? Why now? Is it connected to @ProfKindeya response? 2/ @geoffreyyork who has often reported on current conflict, is a usual re-tweeter of @martinplaut and @KjetilTronvoll, co-wrote an article with @GetachewSS on Amhara people attack 16months ago in Oromia, failed to mention Amhara victims by TPLF till now. Side revealing retweet👇🏾

1/ One of those #debunking threads
@HelenClarkNZ former UNDP administrator and now a close colleague of @DrTedros is the latest #TPLFAgent screaming Genocide nonstop and finally came up with a most disingenuous article on the guardian yesterday. A closer look reveals who she is. 2/ The article aside, let’s look into the pattern of 40+ tweets since the start of the conflict which reveal that Amhara and Afar lives are of no concern to her as she doesn’t even mention them. Moreover, she keeps silent whenever she thinks her allies are winning

1/ Some things never change. If you are under any illusion about how the #TPLFTerroristGroup is using the humanitarian aid situation in Tigray and think TPLF is concerned for the people of Tigray, here’s a thread on TPLF playbook used 37 years ago and one that is being used now 2/ BBC article by @martinplaut in 2010
“Millions of $ in Western aid for victims of the Ethiopian famine of 1984-85 was siphoned off by rebels to buy weapons, a BBC investigation finds”. The article is based on witness accounts of ex TPLF leaders and the CIA assessment of 1985

Last two weeks in a nutshell – a typical example of #RegimeChange
 
Till around mid-October the media had been covering majorly humanitarian crisis in Tigray, so much has been said so I will leave that alone. Let’s dive into events since then. MSM follow the narratives of and quote @reda_getachew & @ProfKindeya to a point that I think they are 🇪🇹‘s correspondents for all of them, they all created stories based on their cries about Ethiopian attack on TPLF and ignored almost completely his claims their attack on Amhara.

Oh @nimaelbagir, for the love of God, you’re killing me with your stupidity! Here’s how I read your latest on ET arms shipments. And @cnni , if this is just a few reporters, I think it’s time to let them go. They’re costing you. [1/15] Story: “Cargo documents and manifests seen by CNN, as well as eyewitness accounts and photographic evidence, confirm that arms were transported between AA airport and airports in the Eritrean cities.” Let’s look at them, shall we?

@sparkomat In case my letter is not readable in picture format, here it is in a thread. My take on a story you produced from Amhara Region for Sky News and why I am in complete opposition to it. [1/17] This is your first reporting out of the Amhara region and I find it interesting that you failed to mention any of what is on the ground. I say this as a person who knows that there is no way you cannot not see the damage and destruction in the region [2/17]

1/ Can somebody explain this to me? Is the 🇺🇸 trying to justify sanction on 🇪🇹 while giving its blessing for #TPLFTerroristGroup to continue attack on Amhara & Afar regions regions during special briefing via telephone Bryan Hunt and Erik Woodhouse on Sept 20? 2/ The question was on details of restriction of aid by the Ethiopian government and it ends with “Can you talk about the extent of the aid that they are stopping, and do you believe the TPLF is also in any way hindering aid from arriving in Tigray?” And the response was

1/ CNN on Ethiopia
Season 2 – CNN on why and how the war started
CNN in its articles since Nov 5th made 37 references to how, when and why the war broke out in Ethiopia. Let’s take a look at them but @cnn please look at no. 9 in this thread for the when why and how. 2/ In 8 of the articles CNN wrote between Nov 5th and Nov 13th about Ethiopia, the war was reported as having started when Abiy declared war on TPLF in response to an ‘alleged attack.’

And yet, I saw neither @BBCAfrica nor @wdavison10 saying anything about Amnesty. How is it that some individual accounts using fake photos to draw attention to the humanitarian situation bigger coverage than @amnesty using fake photos to accuse GoE of arrests? 🙈🙉🙊 Image

1/ CNN on Ethiopia
Season 1 - The CNN TPLF Marriage
CNN published around 60 articles on the Tigray Conflict from Nov 3 to date. We all know about their biased reporting and clear support for #TPLFTerroristGroup but check these facts out 2/ CNN actively developed 9 editorials between Nov 5 & Nov 13 and 0 for the rest of the month with the exception of 2 on Mai Kadra they couldn’t ignore on the 22nd and the 26th. Coincidentally, @reda_getachew went offline since Nov 15th
