Dear Professor Bailey, Please consider my view too

The letter is not directed to me and I am not in a position, moral or legal, to reply to you. But since the letter is an "open" letter, it is also destined for a public consumption and I opted to comment on your letter.
First, thank you for your very nice words of praise and love for what Ethiopia (the home of all of us, including me as someone who was born and raised in Ethiopia proper itself and you, who is also member of the great Ethiopian family) is and the "Ethiopian Diaspora". Ethiopia is the icon of black freedom, as you know better than me, and as such deserved to be defended by all of us. I think that is what you are doing in writting the open letter to the Ethiopian PM, which is great. The Ethiopian PM is leading the fight to defend Ethiopia and millions are following him in defense of the country.
The Ethiopian PM has no right or wish to destroy Ethiopia or any part of it, if he did, then not only he but also the rest of us who are following him are guilty of destroying what we supposed to defend.
So, I am not sure, if you really can substantiate your claim that the PM is behind the goal of destroying Ethiopia or any part of it. As for me, as someone who is closely following the issues happening there, didn't find any instances of the PM's claim or implication thereof, to destroy or hurt what makes Ethiopia. This is the reason why I wondered myself after reading your open letter to the PM where your source could be. You didn't also specify your source, please correct me if I am missing something here.
What I can say confidentily about the aim of the PM in leading the fight to defend Ethiopia is his openly declared goal of destroying the enemies of Ethiopia, including the traitors from within. I hope you don't have an issue for his aim of trying to destroy the enemy of what we all confessed to defend.
To go a step ahead and specify who the traitors are, there could be more entities under different names, but top of the list is the entity calling itself TPLF and to successfully defend Ethiopia this enemy needs to be destroyed, like any other enemy, which has proved itself a cancer for the wellbeing of Ethiopia. The entity has openly declared its intention of destroying (dismantling) Ethiopia in public and I don't think that you could be someone who would miss this key point as someone who is closely following events in Ethiopia, the mother of our freedom.
So, I could have forewarded your open letter to the PM of Ethiopia but there is a flaw in the claim of the letter, in my view. As such I would implore with you to correct the flaw of claims in your letter and I will be on your side to help spread the words of peace.
To ensure a sustainable peace we need to remove all the hurdles of peace and TPLF is such a hurdle, in my view and the view of millions that are following the PM in his effort to defend Ethiopia.
