Iconic Images: more powerful than a missile

Post by DefendTheTruth » 15 Jul 2024, 14:15

This man is a gift to the Ethiopian people, he digs and plants on his own and then commands one of the most powerful military in Africa at the same time. He crafts policy to achieve one of the top economic growth in the world, despite the many challenges the country has faced ever since he came to power.

Could you ever find anyone of the same statue as this man in this world, just look at the cover image of the following video. This is immortal image!

I think Prof. Merera Gudina is a son of a farmer, which means he has more experience and affinity to the life of the farmers than Dr. Abiy Ahmed and others in his government, more so to the farmers of his own countryside farmers.

In that case I am asking myself why in his over 50 years of political activism he didn't show up among the farmers and try to mingle with them, live their lives for a single day and show the rest of us how he cares about the farmers of his own birth place?

The man started his political life by throwing stones at what he and his associates considered are part of the government and he remained the same for the whole of his adult life.

He should have retired long time ago, he refused and his fate is losing the reputation he had so far and he is just staying here and prophesying about the bad luck of Ethiopia. He lost my respect!

Abiy is a very shallow person; that is why he loves gimmickry like being photographed while planting trees and opening parks. And then he shows his innumeracy when he boasted that he planted 33 billion trees which means each of the 110 million Ethiopians has planted 300 trees. I heard that he went to Port Sudan and suggested that it would cement their relations if he planted a tree. They told him they did not have one. He said not to mind because he brought one. :lol: :lol: :lol:

:lol:

Told you, Somaliman (Eri_woman) posing herself as Italy Somalia. Just like Fiyarmeta, she received her cartoon released from Asmara printing press :lol:

Everyone knows Abiy Ahmed is a hypocrite, let alone about trees he does not care about fellow human beings. His primary role was to secure the safety and security of citizens. While he himself is the security threat of the country, he pretends as if he concerned about environment.

The BS in third world underdeveloped countries they make too much noise more than the polluters. The polluters eat this world 100 times more than the hungry 3rd world country. Third world thugs changes diapers of the over fed ones. Save life first. No one forgets the Wolo Amhara people slaughtered in Wolega and you made joke of using them as fertilizers in Wolega to grow tree on them.

Agreed 100%. A gimmick in the 1st degree. Show man. A makeup artist. A wound dresser with bandages, not a doctor who heals from the source of the ailment.

He believes in bear hugs, grilish smiles, holding hands of foreign leaders and walking as husband/wife, lack of dignified presence/seriousness as the highest diplomat of Ethiopia.

Most of his green projects are in central Ethiopia, especially, Addis Abeba, where the land is already lush green with grass and thick trees. He even planted trees over thick grasslands. Arid and Semi-arid Afar and Ogaden left to the growing desertification.

His corridor development projects, all close to his Palace in arat Kilo, better known in Urban Planning science as re-zoning, lacked cost-benefit analysis and priority selection. Multiple number of lanes where vehicle density does not demand. Water and electricity needs of Addis populace neglected. Bulbs lighting up the sky rather than the ground.

A gimmick, indeed for a life-long dictator who would not allow competition and fair elections! What then is all these glitters for? To build himself as a cult figure.

I guess there's one person who's seriously unhappy about what we're saying about the infamous clown monkey! Look no further than the OP of this thread, who, after having disguised himself as an Amhara for so long in vain, is now coming out of his cave as Galla and is trying to sugarcoat the fuc'king useless Galla clown that we all know.

የሻቢያ ጫጫታ ልምንድነዉ ብባል፣ ለምን ትኩረት ትነፍጉናላችዉ ነዉ መልሳቸዉ።

የሻቢያ ምርጫ ከአሁን ቦኋላ ቻዪዉ ብቻ ነዉ፣ ኢትዮጵያን አድምታችዉ በነፃነት የምትኖሩበት አለም ምንጊዜም አይኖርም!

We have moved on, meet you at the gate of Assab, in a not that distant future!

Dtt,

These are iconic pictures and not a clown in designer jeans planting trees just for the camera! God, I cringe to see people of even average intelligence getting swindled by this charlatan.

How modern are those guns?

It is not without a reason that someone commented about Ethiopia can destroy their 300 tanks with just 3 drones, the difference between modernity and antiquity.

Shabos, mark my word, the count-down has already started and no force can stop that!

I am not part of the government but I am just reading the writing on the wall!

The guns were good enough to save your arse when the Agames were chasing you out. BTW, if you can have drones, so can we. And we will be better at operating them than your fara soldiers. Do you think we are going to allow a slobbering kid like Abiy threaten our sovereignty!

This song says it: We are always vigilant!

Ask it to your uncle - the clown monkey Galla you're trying to sugarcoat in vain - as these are the vey same ones that spared his ar'se when Agames were threatening to march to Addis to smoke his dirty ar'se out of Menelik Palace. Without these, he would have been back to his misery by now.

What's the point of having modern arms, when your ragtag soldiers surrender en mass on the first gunshot!

FYI, arms need men to fight with them.

We value our lives and waited 20 years to get back Badme with little sacrifice to our selves and a million dead Agames. Now I wonder how many Oromos died? We know that the Agames took tens of thousands prisoner. It was like taking cattle. And you have the gall to boast?
