TPLF and U2's BONO

Post by Zmeselo » 07 Jun 2025, 12:26







______________






Beginning with Mikael Sehul's first invasion in mid 1750s, successive Tigrayan and Amhara warlords, namely Ras Weldeselassie, Dejazmach Wubie, Dejazmach Neguse and Ras Alula turned Eritrea into a war zone for a century and half.


From the book,

An African People's Quest for Freedom and Justice


by Alemseghed Tesfai.

Not only these...

From 1961 to 1991, Haile Selassie and Mengistu butchered Eritreans.

From 1998 to 2018, Meles and Hailemariam worked hard, more than they did for their country, to empty Eritrea and destroy our economy.

Picture from UN Archives Geneva, not from the Book.

Response, to US Ambassador:









No country just "walks in" — not to a portal, and certainly not to a port.





Maritime access through commercial means, through peaceful and diplomatic contexts.


He literally burst the PP & their brainless cadres bubble, but they are too daft to understand.

He basically told them to respect this

Eritrea 🇪🇷 The Nation:

Closing airspace?

Is it Eritrea’s sovereign, right?

Yes. Under international law, specifically the Chicago Convention, every state has complete and exclusive sovereignty over the airspace above its territory.

Could Eritrea block only Ethiopian Airlines selectively?

Technically possible, if Eritrea issues a specific NOTAM targeting certain carriers for national security or diplomatic reasons.

🟢 Strategic Context

If Eritrea has indeed taken this step, it is likely:

A response to hostile actions or rhetoric from Ethiopia (e.g., airspace violations and political agitation regarding Red Sea access).

A message to disrupt Ethiopian Airlines' hegemony in the Horn of Africa, where it relies on efficient northbound air routes.

A move to assert sovereignty, amidst growing tensions over Red Sea geopolitics and economic pressure.


✾ DID YOU KNOW, TOO, that Ethiopia is also effectively “airspace-locked” since it depends entirely on neighboring countries for access to international air routes.

The recent wave of reckless propaganda from the Ethiopian state media and politicians about «access to the Sea» [via Assab port], through military if necessary, isn’t just dangerous, it’s self-sabotage.

Any such move would turn the Red Sea into a conflict zone and Eritrea would be forced to block all Ethiopia-bound ships from passing through the Bab-el-Mandeb.

This is exactly why Ethiopia must invest in diplomacy, not delusions. Prosperity won’t come through threats or fantasies of becoming a maritime power. It will come by building trust and cooperation with its neighbors.

Historic reminder to those who presently scheme on a dangerous path!

ወፍሪ ደንከል (Denkel Campaign, Feb 25 to May 1991) - EPLF units of no more than 1700, versus Ethiopia's Derg soldiers of about 35,000. Add to that air & weapons tech superiority too!

in the desert war with minimal water, the biggest weapons were the revolutionary values of the struggle, the objective, principle (መትከል), decisiveness, perseverance, courage and bravery.

Ethiopia’s PM Abiy Ahmed’s propaganda machine, mocking Burkina Faso’s leader Captain Ibrahim Traoré on TikTok - forgetting Ethiopia is a disintegrating failed state with 70% outside government control. Owned by the UAE, WFP, World Bank, Bill Gates and Soros.

80 million of its people are in acute poverty - surviving from handouts. 🙈

The irony is ridiculous!







🌍
Burkina Faso's young and charismatic leader, Ibrahim Traoré, is popular at home and abroad because he challenges the poverty imposed on the Burkinabé people through slavery, neocolonialism, and imperialism.

🚨 We are alarmed by the many coup and assassination attempts on Traoré in Burkina Faso, but also in Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, and beyond.

✊🏿 Despite propaganda and attempts at character assassination by Western forces, public sentiment remains committed to sovereignty of the Sahel peoples. Hundreds of thousands took to the streets to defend Traoré and the Alliance of Sahel States.

💥 We stand with the peoples of the Sahel in their goal of a unified and free Africa. Read the intervention now

Rough translation:

Few months ago, it will be remembered, the Economist magazine, basing its numbers from the WFP & other international organizations exposed the PP gov't's claim of wheat production saying, it was exaggerated by nearly three fold.

Even though Ethiopians are living it, the fact that the PP leader lied so biggly with no anxiety whatsoever has become a source of amazement & shame to many ethiopians. For those aware of the PP gospel, however, there was no surprise at all.

1. Plant a seed. Idea and hope.
2. Expect a miracle & your faith will trigger divine intervention.
3. Harvest the miracle.

The lies of the PP, therefore, are to plant seeds and take hope as if it has already happened (pie in the sky). A few examples:

- In different sectors of the economy, in one year, we have scored results not achieved in 15 years. One cannot call Ethiopia's economic dev't just dev't, but rather a "miracle".

- Ethiopia has become number 1 in Africa in wheat production. It has surpassed Egypt, the number 2 developer three fold. We've not only become self sufficient in wheat, but we've begun exporting.

- We're now in 5th place, alongside Russia, in fish production. Our fish production this year, compared to Egypt which has coastlines in both the Red Sea and the Mediterranean, is three fold bigger.

- Our gold production, beyond our expectations & plans, was 5 times bigger.

- We're self sufficient in bullet production and we're now exporting. We'll be self sufficient in drone production and will see start exporting, soon. In 2030, we'll produce airplanes and will start distribution worldwide.

- In 2030, there will be 2 or 3 world powers. Ethiopia will be one of them.

- We've created clouds and produced rain. From now on, farewell drought.

- We've started extracting crude oil. We've successfully launched our satellite.

- We broke the world record in planting trees by the e s?uteacheasObillions, in one year.

- What can one say, except thank God. Ethiopia, has become the owner of a sea coast.

- The international community, thanks to our diligent diplomacy & understanding our predicament, is telling us it's our right to own a coast. We'll soon become, members of the Red Sea alliance. Next year, we'll celebrate Irreccha in the coasts of the Red Sea and Indian Ocean.

- We've trained an army, next to none. A lot of countries are bugging us with question like: how were you able to recruit all these? Can you please teach us?

.....the list is long. Readers can add, themselves.

......delusion as a national vision.
