[DefendTheTruth]

Many people in here didn't want to buy to the idea when I posted the issue under the above title before a year and others ridiculed my claims, simply, but truth keeps coming back, no matter how much we try to run away from it as this has been the case recently.

If someone really belives that it is not the money which is the driving force behind the mob making western countries places of too much loudy noises, then still I am open to hear from you.

But I beg you hard pressed to disprove my claim:

These are people who are contributing the money that is going to finance the machinary, which will be used to kill our own people back home in one way or the other. THis is fact!

Before two days after getting into bed and before got asleep I made my thoughts with my people back home whose daily life has essentially become now life under terrorism, unfortunately. I thereby thought for a while about my personal liberty and the privilege I have in going into bed and get asleep without a fear of something going to happen to me in the night. I put this in comparison to the daily life of those of our people back home, who are deprived of the same luxury while staying in their own home land. Worst of all these people are deprived of their liberty by their “own people”. My thoughts are with all those who are subjected to such suffering in their own homeland.

And then I wondered myself about why things have to be the same as they are now? Why should the innocent people in my country have to suffer in such a way in their own home country? What is (part of) the cause? Things can’t happen without having a cause, and we can’t solve problems without adequately understanding the cause and addressing them.

There could be more than one causes but one of them is without a doubt in my mind the commercialization of the suffering of one’s own people for personal (a narrow group’s) financial or other advantages. No one can deny that there are people in the country who are dispatched to kill other people in their own country, as it is happening in front of our own eyes, these days in Ethiopia. But how are those people who are killing their own fellow citizens are empowered to do so? Where do they get the resources to do so, among others?

Mostly, if not exclusively, they get the resources from the political parties. Which political parties? Mostly these are those who used to be based abroad and skilled themselves in how to raise money for “their cause” in the name of defending the rights of the people.

And mostly the diaspora is good at contributing its money while clapping its "hands very well." Those parties who stayed back home don't the luxury of renting a room where they keep their büros, let alone to buy weapons and use it to kill other fellow citizens.

Having the needed resources is vital, if not the only enablement factor, to keep the machine of killing running. We used to have differing and/or opposing political opinions in the past too, but this didn’t lead us to kill other innocent people in our own country before, at least not to the same scale like it is doing today in Ethiopia, in a coordinated and well managed/executed fashion.

So, what is keeping the machine of killing running?

In my view the Ethiopian diaspora has made itself into one of the major destructive forces in the country through the money it contributes, ostensibly to challenge those in power and as such promote the rights of the people, while effectively it has in fact transformed itself into a force of destruction of its own people.

If we didn’t realize this was the case in the past and we can’t see that it is happening today in front of our eyes, in many different forms, then we are simply just paying a lip service to the cause we claim to have or defend, which is in fact tragic. And the price we will going to pay for our collective failure will be very high, mark my words here.

Call a spade a spade and defend the truth if you think you are serious about your cause.

And many of them earn the money by washing dishes, cleaning buildings, tending to parks and many more labour intensive jobs of the host country and do labour themselves to come to that. And then come out to yell "Abiy is ICC" and uses children to yell on the streets.

Here also you can see how much money is being collected to buy weapon for the war front fighters back home.

already 385,997 $ (it is over 16 Million Ethiopian Birr in current rate).

You send money to buy weapon and let to kill your own fellow citizen and then turn around and beg the foreign countries to help you and save you from "Genocide".

Is there any more curse than this situation?

Watch out!

It seems the entity is more of behind the money than an ernest will of directly inditing some officials, it doesn't have even someone to write in english, but still telling us to take someone to an international court, what a joke!

Collect money in the name of bringing people to internation courts and then use the same money to incite violence in the country.

It is a sophisticated way of "doing businesses", you can't collect money directly for inciting violence from the country of refuge, but you have to take a cover under something else.

Ethiopian activists should pay attention to the appropriation of the collected money (you can't use fund that was raised for something specific for a different purpose, this is money laundering.
Pay Attention!
And Stop Dawit Woldegiorgis money laundaring illegal activities while living under the protection of the rule of law in the country he took refuge from.

OTAGE
Press Statement

April 6, 2021

The Orthodox Tewahedo Church Against Genocide in Ethiopia (OTAGE) is a subsidiary organization under the umbrella of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church Global Outreach (EOTCGO), which is registered in the Commonwealth of

Pennsylvania. The mission of EOTCGO, under the leadership of Archbishop

Theophilus Alemu and other executive members, is to protect and safeguard Christians , Amharas , Amhara Muslims who have been the targets of elimination by the current government intensified more in the last three years. OTAGE is a humanitarian organization dedicated to bringing to justice those responsible for genocide and crimes against humanity of all Ethiopians irrespective of their faith color, ethnic background and language.

Today OTAGE has entered into an agreement with an international legal firm specializing in international crimes, and has thus begun the process of bringing to international justice the perpetrators of genocide and crimes against humanity in Ethiopia. Specifically, OTAGE has targeted for prosecution under international law the following individuals for the first two cases out of the total 13 cases we are studying to submit to the international Legal Counsel. The two cases are the Metekel Benshangul Gumuz and Arsi Zone ( Shashmene) The folders of these tow cases which OTAGE has been working on for six months are today being submitted to the legal counsel specializing in in international crimes.

Mr. Shimelis Abdissa, President, Oromia Regional State,
Mr. Ashadli Hasen, President, Benishangul–Gumuz Regional State.
Adem Mohammed Chef of Staff
Demelash Gebre Mikael head of Secrity
Ararsa Madrassa Commissioner of Police for Oromia Region
Abebe Geresu Chief of peace and Security of Oromia Region
Gadissa Husein He ad of Police for Shashmene
Ashdle Husein Kili President of Benshangul Gumuz Kilil
Dejene Wossene Chief of Police of Western Arsi Zone
Ambassador Misganaw Admassu, former vice president of Benshagul Gumuz
Adgo Amsaya Vice Administrator of Benshangul Gumuz
Getahun Ejigu Adviser to President of Benishangul Gumuz Kilil
Gawa Jane Member of Parliament
Abera Bayita Chief of peace and Security of Benishangul Gumuz
Alemnesh Yibas Spokesperson for the Kilil
Atinkut Shenkut Chief Administrator of Metekel
Admasu Morka Head oof a Department
Mariye Anbese Chief of Metekel Security
Mulualem Albaro head of the Civil Service of the Kilil.

These are only the first batch for the two incidents submitted to the international legal counsel. There more coming which would include not only the federal authorities but also the federal authorities .

We believe that this day will go down in history as a landmark event, as it shall put on notice the perpetrators of crimes against humanity that there is international accountability for crimes committed with impunity in any country.

Ethiopia is a land of majestic history, colorful diversity and heroic people. It is a country that has hosted both Islam and Christianity since long before these religions were even known beyond the Middle East, a country that defeated colonialists decisively, and has been a melting pot of diverse cultures and languages. It is a country that has come to be known as a Promised Land for blacks across the globe. However, with the introduction of the digital age and the accompanying intense global competition to control the region, the country is under assault from multiple fronts, with the objective of destabilizing and fracturing it. Presently, ethnicallymotivated genocidal violence is widespread, and an anachronistic constitution is tearing apart the fabric of the country that has bound the people together for generations. The current project led by OTAGE is an attempt to make those in leadership positions, who have either allowed, incited or participated in the commission of genocide and crimes against humanity, accountable at the international court of justice. OTAGE is obliged to take this action because of the negligence of the government in power that has been unable or unwilling to prosecute the perpetrators.

Over the last three years, members of the Amhara ethnic group and followers of the Ethiopian Orthodox church have incessantly faced genocide, crimes against humanity and internal displacements. It is hoped that the measures now taken to bring those responsible for such crimes to justice can serve as a means of prevention, and possibly open a door for the participation of all Ethiopians to assemble peacefully and chart a new future to this troubled country.

The disinformation and manufactured history by the internal enemies of Ethiopia, supported by external elements, is so systematic and intense that the unemployed and uneducated youth and other sectors of society in the Oromia and BenishangulGumuz regions have caused incalculable death and destruction against minority groups in these areas. Mostly hidden from the international community, the brutalities in rural Ethiopia are unprecedented in the history of the country, and eerily reminiscent of the Rwandan genocide.

The incidents of crimes are rarely talked about in the government-controlled media or by international journalists. The so-called international human rights organizations, which seem to look at gross human rights violations through separate prisms and moral values, have generally been silent in the face of the brutal crimes committed in full view of the public, while focusing more on sensational issues, such as the imprisonment of political figures. These entities have inexplicably ignored to report repeated incidents of gruesome slaughtering and decapitation of innocent civilians that include the murder of pregnant mothers and butchering of their unborn babies, as well as the burning of churches and destruction of properties. These brutal acts in Ethiopia have been documented through videotapes and eyewitness accounts of surviving families, who have told stories of how they their parents, brothers, sisters and mothers were brutally killed and raped right in front of their eyes. The social media is overwhelmed by the ghastly images and horrendous stories. Today Ethiopia has the largest number of displaced people in Africa,primarily because of the unbridled ethnic cleansings that are deceitfully neglected by the government and methodically and [ deleted ] enabled by regional authorities.

There are several questions for which the people of Ethiopian are seeking answers. Why do human rights organizations, activists, and the media become selective in their reporting of the ongoing crimes against humanity being executed in Ethiopia? Why have these incidents not challenged the conscience of the human rights organizations and the journalists who are supposed to inform the world? Have we not learned enough from the Holocaust and more recently from the Rwanda genocide? Is the “Never Again!” slogan going to be a hollow phrase once again?

OTAGE calls upon all credible human rights organizations and members of the media to investigate and learn firsthand about the crimes being committed against

Amharas and other members of the Orthodox Church in the Oromia and Benishangul-Gumz regions.

The case of OTAGE is solid against the regional and federal officials, who could have prevented these crimes, but instead have either participated, instigated or by commission or omission enabled these crimes to take place. OTAGE has presented thousands of pages of documents, numerous hours of video tapes of testimonies, and thousands of still images to support its case against the perpetrators. These are all recorded, and we want the world to know that the news coming out of Ethiopia is not only about the recent conflict in Tigray region, but also in other regions, where people, especially Amhara’s and Orthodox Christians, are being killed for who they are.

OTAGE has uncovered the truth for the world to see once again, this time through its international legal counsel and, eventually, in the International Criminal Court. The international community has the moral responsibility, mandate and the means to stop history from being repeated. It is hoped that the court will find these and other unnamed officials guilty of crimes of genocide, and OTAGE expects the international community to stand by it and vigorously support its efforts. OTAGE was established in 2020 under the chairmanship of Archbishop Theophilus Alemu. The Ethiopian Orthodox church has always been in the forefront of the struggle for independence, peace and harmony in Ethiopia. OTAGE has as its main objectives the protection and safety of all Ethiopians, irrespective of their religion and ethnic background. Since its inception, it has assembled volunteer experts in diverse fields, including lawyers, data analysts, media experts, technologists, and public relation experts. OTAGE has collected data from within the country to support its case and has written letters, on the humanitarian crises in Ethiopia, to the UN Secretary General, the Prosecutor General of the ICC, to the ICJ, to the European Human Rights Commission, and international journalists and all human rights organizations.
