I think its the perfect time to bring the #NoMore slogan into the popular Sudan protests. We must infiltrate Sudans Revolution so their movement leans with Africans like Ethiopians against Alsisi Arab League.

This is the best opportunity for Ethiopians that speak arabic to lead revolutionary protests across Sudan saying #NoMore

I listened to Gregory Copley's analysis here and find it hard to understand what he is suggesting by it.

Apparently, he is an aged dude. However, I couldn't tell if he has a wisdom of age. I was a young student when I heard the name Ronald Reagan when the grown-ups talked about him as a capable American leader. I heard in this report that Gregory Copley was a publisher that even a Ronald Reagan official apprised of highly.

I have read somewhere about the old British tactic of divide and rule by siding with the weak in order to weaken the stronger. That is what I understood by Gregory Copley suggesting psychological and material support for the TPLF in order to sustain it. Evidently, he is suggesting this even as he clearly recalls that the TPLF, which has been unpopular, was dominant in Ethiopia for over two dozen years. He clearly understands that it continues to be unpopular in Ethiopia. So, he had to ask himself why the party or parties that he wishes to advise should continue to support a losing party. I would call this the first paradox to Gregory Copley: wishing to support the weak in order to weaken the stronger while knowing that the weak is the losing party in the long run.

Even as he faced this first paradox, he would imagine the possibility of breaking up Ethiopia in case the party or parties that he wishes to advise might make it an eventuality. Evidently again, he has a party in mind that views the longest river in the world as its lifeline with much of its water originating in Ethiopia. He understands well that rebuilding Ethiopia after its experience under the TPLF is a challenge and suggests that the rest of the world should not have an appetite for it. So, he doesn't fail to imagine that isolating Ethiopia may have the possibility to break up the old country, our old country.

Then again, he doesn't wish to leave that to a chance in today's world, which isn't the world when the late Ronald Reagan was America's President when Gregory Copley was also writing as a global strategist.

Neither Donald Trump nor Joe Biden has become Ronald Reagan who has made his name on a global scale. Americans are bewildered by the domestic attack on its democracy on January 6th of this year and have little moral authority left to lecture about democracy anywhere else in the world.

President Putin is not USSR's Gorbachev. China is not waking up by its own revolution. It has been a rising global power that put itself side by side with the U.S. both economically and politically. The oil-rich Middle East may not mind if tankers come from the west or the east as long as they buy the oil and it brings up a Dubai out of it.

So, the second paradox to Gregory Copley is isolating the old country and letting it break up by facing its own internal challenges but not leaving the isolation to a chance because of other rising global powers.

What surprises me the most is an American writer having the audacity to publicly lecture about letting an old country of over 100 million that he is not a citizen of break up.

I have never read any Ethiopian lecture, or who would lecture, that just because immigrants, including Gregory Copley's ancestors. have built Boston and Copley Square in the middle of it doesn't mean that the State of Massachusetts and its name don't belong to Native Americans and that America's natives and immigrants break up.

If anything, I would expect an Ethiopian to write about the Boston Tea Party that started a revolution to correct the errors of colonization while continuing to correct other errors, including the genocidal adventures against the natives and the abducted.

It shouldn't have been very hard for Gregory Copley to write how important it is to correct the errors of the TPLF in Ethiopia and help Ethiopia in its effots to rebuild. It is when I fail to read such simple suggestions from an aged American writer that I am reminded of the Kool-Aid drinking cultural orphans of America. This dude sounds one of them.
