innocent people including children and elderly have suffered all forms of abuse from killings, displacement and rape to children being used as soldiers – violations orchestrated by the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), an organization designated as terrorist group by the country’s House of representatives.
The problem, however, is that sanctions are hardly cost free. They strain relations with allies, antagonize adversaries, and impose economic hardship on innocent civilians. Thus, sanctions not only reveal American decline but accelerate it, too. To make matters worse, the tool is growing duller by the year. Future sanctions are likely to be even less effective as China and Russia happily swoop in to rescue targeted actors and as U.S. allies and partners tire of the repeated application of economic pressure
BBC is NOT neutral! BBC is a HOSTILE participant in the propaganda war against Ethiopia. FULL STOP.
Officially public authorities do not negotiate with terrorists. However, governments frequently do end up negotiating
Despite the massive human rights violations that were associated with the TPLF’s rule—despite the authoritarianism and theft, the imprisonments and the torture that have been laid at its door—the TPLF’s international allies have never repudiated it, nor examined their inappropriate investment in the TPLF’s welfare. International analysts have pointedly and repeatedly failed even to raise the TPLF’s maladministration and intransigence in their assessments of this current crisis. This has created an attitude of impunity in the TPLF, but it has also undermined the Ethiopian leadership’s faith that international mediation and diplomacy can work on their behalf. And that is an awful tragedy, because if Abiy had any reason to believe that the international community could fairly and impartially mediate his conflict with the TPLF, he might actually be persuaded to stand down.
the TPLF founded in 1975, is a fascist, separatist and ethnic suprematist organization that brutally ruled Ethiopia between 1991-2018. It was designated a terrorist organization in the 1980s. Many Ethiopians gave it a chance in the 1990s, knowing how brutal the previous Derg regime was
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
In Somalia, nicknamed as the butcher of Mogadishu, General Gebre and his TPLF soldiers killed tens of thousands of civilians. Just Google Gabre Somalia. His forces regularly bombed civilian areas and used white phosphorous. I remember the murder of 400 Somalis in a single day
Love, distorted but potent, and hate sustain the monster: Love and corrupted pride of nation and ‘our way of life’, seen among the flag wavers as somehow superior; hatred of ‘strangers’, and hatred of change to that which is familiar
