Situation Report on United Nation Military Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea.
(Aigaforum 02.23.08):- The United Nation Military Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea (UNMEE) has been in paralysis due to the Eritrea regime refusal to cooperate. The Eritrea regime through out the years since the mission was established has tired to undermine the mission presence. The regime has effectively curtailed UNMEE’s mission for some time now. The current report we are getting reads as follows:
Establishment of a Sister City
Aigaforum 02/23/2008: Aigaforum has learned the City of Addis Ababa and Oakland are working to forge a sister city alliance with a ceremony to be held in Addis and Oakland sometime in the next few months..
DNA studies map human migration
The pattern of genetic mutations, to be published today in the journal Science, offers striking evidence that an ancient band of explorers left what is now Ethiopia and -- along with their descendants -- went on to colonize North Africa, the Middle East, Europe...
Comment :
Does this mean our 3000 year old story is wrong also? On a serious note was destiny already written when Atse Minlik establish Addis as the Capital City?

Largest Coffee Trade Association Building upon its growing relationship
with coffee giant Starbucks, Ethiopia signed an agreement last week

Hailu survived
BB's group attempt to bury him alive in the US (politicaly
speaking) and is returning back home. His group's bet is they
will do better at the General Meeting which is being set by
his right hand man Abyneh. The BB Group's bet is on the "Lailay
Mikirbet" as stated by Birhanu before declaring he has
gone hiding in PA mountains(View
of BB on General Meeting) and the Birtukans went about
padding it to their own image by the Temesgens, the very people
demonized for enterring parliament. What is left in all of
this is the drama played by Dr.Yacob Hailemariam that ups
the Birtukan's "Hulem Mereyenot" tears in Boston.
Who now
keeps the peace between Eritrea and Ethiopia?
Mulugeta Alemu:- Eritrea’s blatant restrictions on the United Nations
Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea (UNMEE) not only imperilled the mandate
and operation of the force, but has also put the security of the peacekeepers,
in the words of UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, in grave danger
Aigaforum 02/20/08:- According to a reliable source some 28 European
mostly French tourist were attacked by Shaibya (Eritrean regime) mercenaries
in the Afar region of Ethiopia. The incident happened around Mohammed
Ela in the Dalul area around 11am (Ethiopian time) today.
The Rejection of Africom
By G. Dange:-It was not much of a surprise to learn from the BBC that
African countries have rejected Africoms presence in Africa. Africans
may not need Africom.
UN Ethiopia-Eritrea peacekeepers move to Asmara
UNITED NATIONS, Feb 19 (Reuters) - U.N. peacekeepers monitoring a
border security zone between Eritrea and Ethiopia are regrouping in
the Eritrean capital of Asmara after Eritrea cut off their fuel and
food, U.N. officials said on Tuesday.
Comment:- There is unspoken fear among UN officials
that the mad man may hold UNMEE as hostage. The UN according to some
observers is quietly trying to lift troops out of Eritrea before the
unthinkable happens.
US drops Africa military HQ plan

month)

thank you to those martyred and to those who day in day out are
struggling to make life better for Ethiopians and people of the
Horn from Badme to Ras Camboni!/ Mogadishu. Aigaforum says Thank
You.
