**don’t shoot the messenger**

A figurehead as cautious as woman with words that can get him into tro uble. The only former politician who Meles Zeradwa had mercy on among those who walked out and split tplf into two.

We had Prof.Beyene Petros, even when he was forced to remove hos shoes at the gates of the Ethiopian parliament for security checks, he did not condemn Meles other than saying " I don't like it; I am a member of parliament".
Meek. Weak minded. For fear of loss of privileges. To make absolutely sure to not confront oppressive authority in a visible manner.
Both love to avoid drama and lessent the risk to their security. "Me first, above all else".

I disagree. President Gebru Asrat is brave for coming out and dismissing TPLF leaders as terrorist/ war lords. This language is unpopular position that’s perceived as extreme by people who believe in Tigrian unity at this moment of Abiy cooking Genocide 2.O

You must be brave to take minority position - like 3% at most - are receptive of this messaging.

That's a change. Not in character. He must be feeling very safe. Seeing nothing to lose.
Self-endangerment is not in him.
