This will be an easy task for Abiy Ahmed if he puts his proposal to invade and topple the Godless Issaias Afeworki, who built more than 365 jails and dungeons to bully the innocent Christian evangelists and protestants and to keep them in prison indefinitely, without any independent judicial process.
In addition, it is likely that Abiy Ahmed will point out that Ethiopia of 130 million people is surrounded by hostile and evil Muslim Arab regimes, just like the State of Israel.
The most crucial point that Abiy Ahmed and his diplomats are well prepared to emphasize is that the Arab Muslims are trying to Arabize Ethiopia by force and keeping it poor, divided and warring against each other, by financing Eritrea and by keeping Ethiopia landlocked and out of the Red Sea.
The hostile Arab Muslims are working hard to keep the Red Sea, as the "Arab Lake", excluding Ethiopia any access and benefit from the sea that is only 64 km away from its borders.
Do you think the Trump administration and Israel will support Ethiopia? What else should Abiy Ahmed add to hammer his points and nail this home and remove the Arab servant Issaias al Afeworki.
Abiy Ahmed may not win the first round of the war but given Ethiopia's population, resources and diplomatic advantage, Abiy Ahmed will remove Issaias al Afeworki on the second or third round of the war to occupy Assab.
