Why did Ethiopians not oppose when Eritrea and Abiy Ahmed's soldier's commit genocide on Tigrayans

Post by EthioRedSea » 21 Apr 2021, 02:06

We need to answer this basic question. If citizens do not oppose when people are being killed their homes burnt, factories dismantled and taken to Eritrtea, the common people should oppose and stand up with those who are being killed. This did not happen when the Somalis were killed by Abiy Ahmed soldiers. this did not happen when the Guji were displaced. This did not happen when Tigrayan people were killed by Eritrea troops and their factories dismantled. This did not happen when Sudan troops were invading Gonder

We need to work on this problem as a country. It is not only when our tribe is attacked we should feel the pain. But when any part of Ethiopia is being burnt or attacked, we need to oppose and show solidarity. This way only we can face any challenges from other countries. Tiny Eritrea and Sudan took advantage of our weakness and we should not allow this to happen.

Ethnic Federalism is in a way the cause of weakness of Ethiopia as a country. Equality of all ethnic groups should lead to better unity and solidarity. But TPLF abused the system by pitting ethnic groups against each other. We need to stop it. Some form federalism with co-dominance of all tribes should be formed. Ethiopians in general are nice people to each other up until Abiy Ahmed took power. Any one can travel to any parts of Ethiopia without feeling alien. Now it is impossible to travel to another regional state without being harassed or attacked.

That is why we need national discussion and reconcilation. Abiy's Ethiopia is by far more divided and conflicted than TPLF/EPRDF Ethiopia. Abiy allowed for documentary films that demonize Tigrayans Abiy though he was part of the core EPRDF ruling class and accountable for the mistakes that were committed during the TPLF/EPRDF era, he presented himself as innocent as dove and he continue to take actions that further polarized Ethiopia. He also exposed Ethiopia to foreign intervention and manipulation and committed genocide on Tigrayans. That is why he should resign.

too late for reconciliation. Tegaru have experienced massacre, rape, and destruction and they have learned they don’t belong with these group of people. So, time for reconciliation has expired!
