Hypocry & Imperialism

In addition to the denial of Chinese people’s rights, the HRW deliberately sets out to besmirch China’s image with its $1 billion annual budget. The NGO’s patron George Soros, whose Open Society Foundations (OSF) helped to seal a deal for an entire floor of the Empire State building, holds a grudge against China.

The African Union (AU) has launched a commission of inquiry into the conflict, and a joint investigation by Ethiopia’s Human Rights Commission and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCR) is also underway. Currently an agreed ceasefire is in place in Tigray and TPLF forces are in control of the regional capital Mekelle

There is no doubt that sanctions proposed by a foreign power will have the same effect as 1896, when Ethiopians from all walks of life banned together to successfully defend their independence from a would be colonizer. The proposed sanctions will only galvanize support for the federal government.

Since the conflict began the Ethiopian government has been battling, not just the terrorists, but malicious foreign forces and misleading information from western governments and mainstream media – the BBC, CNN, New York Times, Facebook etc. The US, which is widely believed to be indirectly arming the TPLF, have led the misinformation campaign, and appear (together with the UK and EU) to have sanctioned the TPLF’s attack on Ethiopia.
