Thought For Today
There is no greatness without a passion to be great, whether it's the aspiration of an athlete or an artist, a scientist, a parent, or a business person.

Dr.Yacob. Disparity
of wish and reality.
Dr.Yacob Hailemariam, in an interview with
reporter
and one that is castigated by
Ethiolion, seems to have taken offense at the label of “MOLACHOCH” to describe the now defunct CUD given it had internationally renowned people and elders.
If there were dignified people they must have left their hat at home. The undignified path this organization took dates back to the insult to Carter (“Shimaglew Zelabede”), to the insult to Alamudi, the dogging of government press that came to cover them then, the total disrespect of the election process and institutions of the country and ended up in their attempt to humiliate Hailu Shawil, a person who they still call their leader and yes their elder.
This is an organization whose so called leaders seems to cherish being called “ARADA” and pompous rhetoric than being involved in actions that is commensurate to their education, a character exhibited in some African American elites who throw away ivy league education for street credit and “GET IT REAL” (as opposed to changing the life of ghetto dwellers...more

"Eritrea Will Pay a Big Price" US Ambassador to U.N., Alejandro Wolff
The U.N. Security Council is considering the future of the U.N. peacekeeping mission on the Ethiopia and Eritrea border, which has effectively been suspended because of a lack of cooperation from Eritrea.
U.S. Ambassador Alejandro Wolff said Eritrea is only hurting itself by challenging the authority of the Security Council and Eritrea will pay for its behavior in a big way.
"It is always important to remember when peacekeepers are sent into the field it is with a view to helping the parties, and anyone who believes we are there because we want to be there and not because the parties need us there is wrong, and I think in the long term Eritrea will pay a very big price for this misjudgment."
The Security Council expects to have another meeting on this subject as early as next week.
