I don't think the majority of us disagree with the idea of the old country having its own outlet to the sea but not by violent means. Look at this way. The population of that country is reportedly around 135 million now and is expected to almost double by the year 2050 to close 250 million. That is ...

If you are looking for a miracle of survival, the Babile Elephant Sanctuary is one of them. It has survived wars, poachers and nature's calamities. Among wars, it had even survived burn-all and kill-all soldiers of Siad Barre and his ONLF beasts of burden. That is until now. I remember how they were...

One common attributes of all rulers of the old country since the late Emperor is all of them claim to be theoreticians. The moon calf and human bloodthirsty Mengistu had crowned himself to be the 'Center' of all theories. The one that followed him was said to possess a steel trap brain of every rese...

This was my response to your article days ago but it was censored by Zehabesha. You see, we complain about censorship but some of us are doing the censorship ourselves on others. Here it is again for you. Dear LJDemissie. Thank you for your response that I found courteous and professional. This is n...

LJDemissie, let’s have our paw waw here. This form is open to differing opinions. There is unfair and too much censorship on Zehabesha. They don’t like some of my comments about the Eritrean regime.

Peace y’all! Peace!!!

Amid these two celebratory occasions, it is disheartening to see/hear some in the opposition parties calling upon the citizens of that country to go into the streets to demonstrate in protest rallies knowing the history of such protest gatherings will turn violent on a dime. If this call for a natio...

First of I want to say Happy Easter to my very dear Christian brothers and sisters. In that small railway station we used to celebrate all holidays irrespective of religion during my early formative years more than 7 decades ago. Life under the auspices of the old Chemin de Fer people of various eth...

These days, we are all preoccupied with what has been going on between Iran, Israel and USA. As the consequence of the conflict we are feeling the pinch at the pump. Let's hope it will not be as severe as in 1973. But there is another tragedy in the offing that will involve our countrymen and women ...

Wonderful urban wildlife sanctuary. Thank you for sharing.

No, this report is wrong. I just called and talked to my longtime homeboys Al-Toweel Isu and Yemane about this story. They were livid that none of the Eritrean players had defected. Those who defected were Filipino and Navajo players. Eritreans never defected. This is just another futile attempt by ...

ethiopianunity, I hope you have seen and read my previous comments over the years on this and other websites. In all, when the story required, I have spoken against any violent form of struggle to unseat a reigning regime. That is because there hasn't been any armed group that brought a democratic g...

Abebe, Thank for your thoughtful response. There have been glitches in this forum and my post was not visible and that was why I posted again. I could not see your opinion. Let’s hope and pray that the old country we all left behind will somehow find peace with itself and for its harmony mongering p...

The latest travel advisory by the US State Department should be heeded to the letter. I'm not surprised by the advisory on Ethiopia. That country has been marred by bloody and violent conflicts in its two largest regions and Tigray for years now. Others have been on shaky grounds all along. Congratu...

Even me who has started scouring around on the history of our people just very recently have found myself to strongly believe that there has never been a history of Tigres without the presence of my Oromos. There has never a history of Amharas without the presence of my Oromos. There has never been ...

Btw, there are one or two websites among I just visited in our Diaspora that posted an article or said something celebrating this glorious day in our shared history. Others are so busy beating the drums of war inciting/encouraging the gullible youth in Amhara and Oromia to join the senseless deadly ...

I have said this decades ago and every year on this glorious day since then. I am posting it again today. I want everyone of you to join me in celebrating this gem of all freedom mongering humanity. Hello Dear Countrymen!!!! You know me by now that I have nothing but love for you. I am here to let y...

Commie China's lapdogs in Arat Kilo go like this with their latest boot licking. '” Ethiopia reaffirms its firm commitment to the one-China principle, and reaffirms that there is but one China in the world, Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory and the government of the People’s Republi...

I don’t feel comfortable when I see the old country slowly drifting away into the arms of the murderous goon in Moscow and Beijing. That will be the beginning of the undoing of the country whose unity is getting more and more fragile by bigots and connivers inside and outside the country. This bully...
