How Many of the 50,000 Demobilized Agames Do you Think will become "hang"ers. How many will resort to banditry?

Over 50,000 Agame members of the Tigray Destroyed Force (TDF) have been released from camps with 6,000 birr in their pockets. The money will barely cover their transportation back home and will at best last them a month. What then?

These traumatized kids, who have seen tens of thousands of their comrades blown to pieces, are a lost generation. By now, they have lost all respect for their leaders. They see them now for what they are, a bunch of incompetent and corrupt thugs. They have or will lose all hope of any future as they contemplate their grim circumstances. They cannot deceive themselves and believe they are winners or heroes as most Diaspora Agames do. They know they have been defeated. They are disillusioned and cannot sustain their faith in their Tigray by the continuous fantasies they are being fed. Their society does not have the material and intellectual means of soothing their defeated souls. Their conditions are the classic precursors of nihilism.

So it won't surprise us if most of them resort to criminal activities not only for gain but also as venting their anger on their fellow Agames. They can only take revenge on those who lied to them that they were a superior race for whom war was a sport. A lot of Agames will become "hang"ers and a lot will be "hang"ed!
