"It is difficult to prove, but we believe that Eritrea is involved"

It is good that the Egyptians kicked this media outlet out of their country already long time ago, after it failed to live upto a standard of international media organization, otherwise they could have been used by the Egyptians themselves as propaganda tool against Ethiopians.

Dear Mr. Plaut,

I read a book about English hypocrisy before almost 2 decades after an acquaintance read the book and gave it to me to read as well. The book was written by a Hungarian author (whose name I don't remember anymore) and it essentially chronicles the author’s personal encounter with English people, whom he tries to depict as specially hypocrites.

After watching the above video, where you said, “we can’t prove it, but we believe Eritrea is involved” I also instantly remembered the book that I read almost 2 decades ago (as a young man).

In the same video you also claimed that the current war between the Federal Government of Ethiopia and the TPLF (Tigrean People Liberation Front), which has not yet even evolved itself to become a political party from its early days of “liberation front” stage and now acts as a regional Authority in Tigray, is “an existential fight to survive (of the Tigreans)”.

And here is my question to you, Mr. Plaut, where in this world did it happen that if a given political party may be destroyed by the authorities of its country, assuming this will going to happen to the TPLF in this war, after the latter transgressed the law of the land to draw a parallel and get a sense of grain of truth of your claim?

Just for the sake of simplicity of drawing this parallel here, would that be considered an existential fight for any of the people of Great Britain if the government of the country decides to wage a war against the Labour Party, the Conservative, the Scottish National Party, or any other Party for that matter?

If no, then why should that be different in the case of Ethiopia, may I ask, Sir (no, you are not yet Sir, so Mr.)?

If yes, then why did your own country wage a war against the North Ireland Army (Irish Republican Army), which is also a kind of liberation front like the TPLF and through that war whose existence was your government striving to destroy through that war? Would you mind sharing here?

I am pretty sure, that you will hover around this forum to sneak in for some information for your next time “expert” analysis, on some TV channels on Horn of Africa and hope that you wouldn’t mind answering this question.

wey gud
eden,

it seems that you are effectively looking after my old documents in here and chronicling (keep record of) them, yeah? I am glad that you are doing me this favor for nothing in return.

I didn't have any protocol personnel so far and I didn't think to afford one, now you are suddenly here, great!
I feel myself elated!

Anyhow do you believe, assuming the Federal government was waging a war against TPLF, and in that case this could have also amounted to an existential threat to the Tigrean general public, of which there are upwards of 6 Million in Ethiopia, I guess?

Yes or no?
