The United States Government must not fail Tigray People. Even though the formidable Tigray Forces have defeated the invading forces of Abiy Ahmed and Isaias Afewerki of Eritrea on the battlefield, Tigray is still blocked on all fronts. The evil plan of Abiy and Isaias to suffocate and starve the people of Tigray must not succeed. The US and European Nations must not allow another genocide to happen. One Rwanda is enough for humanity. It is important the US use all in its power to open the roads to Tigray, the Air space of Tigray, and Banks and Telecom services, so people resume their normal life. These are simple things to do and do not need detailed negotiation. If the Western world is worried about the disintegration of Ethiopia, they should worry more about what will happen if Tigrayans start to die due to famine and disease - Tigray forces will not sit idle and watch their people die of hunger and disease. All hell will break loose in the Horn of Africa. Time is running out. Hear Tigrayans cry before it is too late. [Aigaforum July 6, 2021]

An Interview With Tigray's Leader
GIJET, Ethiopia - The convoy sped down from the mountain, slipping and sliding on roads greasy from a recent shower of hailstones.

Desta Asgedom 07-01-21 - The people of Tigray are peace-loving, law-abiding and hardworking people who want to grow, prosper, and aspire for change and for a better life. That is the purpose of life and living. They want to identify themselves with their history, preserve and enjoy their cultural identity and be the sole determinants of their destiny, which is a fundamental right of any society. But this has been met time and time again with wars of attrition, depopulation, and coerced assimilation of Tigrayans by successive Amhara-led regimes for nearly a century.

I TOLD YOU SO

Fanus Haki 07-02-21 - The people of Tigray have suffered incalculable human, material and mental suffering in the hands of the Eritrean, Ethiopian and Amhara brutal forces. The international community more generally, and the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) specifically, must stand with victims of genocide and other gross crimes, and not with the Abiy, Isaias and Amhara leaders, who have perpetrated a well-planned mass crime, including systemic rape, starvation, atrocities, forced eviction and total destruction of livelihoods.






Ethiopia denies blocking aid to Tigray where WFP trucks waited days to unload

People , Tigray Seb alewa aytidkemu , we will rebuild it in no time! Zeru Hagos July 1, 2021


Tigrayan forces have routed the Ethiopian army
ONCE THE history of Ethiopia's latest civil war is written, the battles of June could well be recounted as one of the great rebel victories of recent years. For it will explain how a group of insurgents in the mountains of Ethiopia's northern region of Tigray routed two of Africa's largest armies, Ethiopia's and Eritrea's, to reclaim Mekelle, their capital.
What is so amazing about this military victory is that it was done in such a short time and how fast they adapt to withstand the unforeseen military setbacks attributed to the Arab mercenaries' involvement. The ignorant fotaa lebash and the fox hole digging expert from the Shaibya camp were not the issues for TDF despite their huge superiority in numbers. The Arab-operated Drones were a problem and Glory to TDF military leaders they developed a plan to null the drone effect and live another day to defeat two government armies and a fotaa lebash Amhara militia. An amazing feat by any measuring standard.!

Abiy Ahmed and the tarnishing of the world's most famous prize
(Washington Post) - If good things come to those who wait, do bad things come to those who don't?...Now, some analysts wonder whether the premature delivery of the award - which led to Abiy's lionization in the West - had a role to play in the ongoing crisis. "We have to acknowledge that we helped to contribute to Abiy's view of himself," Judd Devermont, an Africa expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, told the New York Times. "We papered over these challenges very early. We gave him a blank check. When it went wrong, we initially turned a blind eye. And now it may be too late."
