Ethiopia famine aid 'spent on weapons'
Millions of dollars in Western aid for victims of the Ethiopian famine of 1984-85 was siphoned off by rebels to buy weapons, a BBC investigation finds.
Former rebel leaders told the BBC that they posed as merchants in meetings with charity workers to get aid money.
They used the cash to fund attempts to overthrow the government of the time.
One rebel leader estimated $95m (£63m) - from Western governments and charities - was channelled into the rebel fight.
The CIA, in a 1985 assessment entitled Ethiopia: Political and Security Impact of the Drought, also alleged aid money was being misused.
Its report concluded: "Some funds that insurgent organisations are raising for relief operations, as a result of increased world publicity, are almost certainly being diverted for military purposes."

No...! history should not be left to itself and repeat itself freely during this 21st century era just like the 19th and 20th century feudal eras because our Ethiopian Tigryans should get all assistance they need just like all the other Ethiopians, otherwise the history that repeats itself is the ugly story of famine, war and endless conflicts all over the places with Amhara extremists chanting cheering and waving high their Arenguade, Bichaa & Kei melk cult like bandolero just to provoke others and then go to feel good before coming out to cry and cry. The only flag Ethiopians need to use officially should be the official Ethiopian flag until such a time when Ethiopians officially get together to discuss about the Ethiopian flag and reach agreeable decision.Revelations wrote: ↑20 Jan 2021, 13:32History repeats itself.

Are you implying that the Amharas brought what has befallen on the TPLF turf? or are you saying that Amhara cheers for famine and starvation to be defining the country that has been abused by TPLF/OLF for the longest? or is it the sight of the tricolor flying high that is pulling the Jinni outta ya?

You must be getting a cut of the hijacked donated money to go nuts for being called out. Calm down! Like the news article the TPLF you worshiped had stolen aid money before just like you and your buddies are doing now.sun wrote: ↑20 Jan 2021, 19:24No...! history should not be left to itself and repeat itself freely during this 21st century era just like the 19th and 20th century feudal eras because our Ethiopian Tigryans should get all assistance they need just like all the other Ethiopians, otherwise the history that repeats itself is the ugly story of famine, war and endless conflicts all over the places with Amhara extremists chanting cheering and waving high their Arenguade, Bichaa & Kei melk cult like bandolero just to provoke others and then go to feel good before coming out to cry and cry.
