The biggest fatal mistake tplf did was;
#1. to pick a fight with it’s creators the eplf. It took 20 yrs, but undid the evil monster Tribalism org Tplf,
Brilliantly done

and they freeD Ethiopia & the Horn Africa in the process
#2. Fatal mistake was to listen to the Americans in handing over power to the Oromos in 2018...agreeing to handover power with no agreement or forgiveness on their crimes as a bargaining for handover power—- they were just to dumb to see what was coming to them after the soft coup
Rip Tplf
Feel free to add to the list below

Fatal mistake # 3 is not following the lead of PM Abiy in 2018 acceptance of the border ruling as final and binding, then apologize to the Eritrean people wholeheartedly in the past two years for deporting 100k plus civilians from Ethiopia and all the crimes committed after that...
Instead tplf choose to undermine the peace process

Fatal mistake # 4; preventing the federal Army soldiers (north command) from leaving Tigray border area with Eritrea back in 2019. Now the same army is attacking Tigray from north
(You could argue tplf looted the cache of advance weaponry From north command, but either that’s a lie or tplf doesn’t know how to operate the missilery... not used until now

Afdeyu your analysis is true but for me the biggest mistake of all Fatal mistakes that TPLF made is to consider Amhara people its Number 1 Enemy!!

They made the Amhara people and Orthodoxy as their Number 1 Enemy. Sibhat Negga has nasty things to say on that subject.

I disagree with number two. They had no choice at that moment. The Americans were fed for nearly three decades the TPLF propaganda, and they believed it : Ethiopia will dismember if TPLF ceases ruling her.
The Americans after knowing the unrest mostly in Oromia, and to some extent in Amhara region, they seemed to have concluded in fact TPLF was the problem. I am just guessing here : the Americans might have convinced the former prime minister to resign, smoothing the way for the next Prime Minister to come.
All the mistakes mentioned, however, have been the result of one fact : the TPLF politician brains were frozen. For the last nearly half a century they believed one dogma, and they will die with that dogma. They have no ability — or more precisely desire — to build up knowledge as society is transforming in light speed.
Fifty years ago they said the Amharas were the problem. Just a month or so ago, they gave orders to the OLF armed wing to kill Amharas in Wellega, and they were killed.
A frozen mind with a dangerous dogma filled is a dangerous combination. In other words, the TPLF politicians have been the victim of their own ignorance.

That’s a good point and you can see their hate in action at the mai-kadra massacre... their hate is deep.

TGAA= Coward ዓንጃል ኣድጊ:
You should thank Shaebia (EPLF) for keeping and maintaining Ethiopia intact as a country when the EPLF controlled Addis Ababa and covertly controlled other Cities in 1991/92.
There would not be a country called Ethiopia by now if it had not been for the EPLF.
ጃለ ዋሒድ !!
