Love is the Most Powerful Weapon of Peace

There are some evil elements of human being in every society. Thus Ethiopia is not immune to these obnoxious, idiotic, sadistic,... elements.

The fact that Ethiopia is a cradle of all civilization to all humanity on this planet is a great inspiration for me. When Kashta with his brother Piye conquered the whole of Africa and middle east. His son Shabaka founded the Ethiopian dynasty called Napata around 50,000 years BC in Egypt. Ethiopians ruled the whole middle east, and founded the Assyrian Capital Ninev, Babylon, and other middle east cities . Ethiopians built all the Pyramids in Egypt which are the fascination of the world today. Ethiopians are the first people to make paper from payprus, and ink. Ethiopians are the first human to build a boat from papyrus. Ethiopians are the first people to start agriculture,chemistry, metallurgy, astronomy, architecture, pottery, art, engineering, Mathematics like calculus, and quadrature ...is something which excites me beyond my comprehension. The fact Ethiopians built the Axum Hawlet which we are not able to put it where it was, because we are asking NGOS, UN to erect for us. The fact that Lalibela, after 20 years refugee life in Israel, he built Lalibela by himself except help from God is a great pride for me.

In a complete contrast to our ewe-inspiring and glorious history, Ethiopians are now the most backward and poor people on this planet. Our people have no clothe, shoes, no school, no clinic, no enough food, no electricity, no modern agricultural practice,no clean water, no electricity, no telephone, to train, no cars, almost no luxuries at all ....

Now instead of organizing people to work hard to mitigate the level of poverty we have. Instead of sowing of seed of love, peace, justice among our people,these despicable, sluggard, braggart, evil, backward, mentally retarded,... few Ethiopian

refugees are sowing hatred among our people. I have never read of a book of hatred which can be used as a weapon to achieve peace, justice, freedom. Hatred destroys the one who possess it. Tigray which is the nuclei of African, if not the world history is an object of curse and hatred for this few evil Ethiopians.

I must tell to these idiots that we Tigrayans we do not hate any Ethiopians. We love Ethiopians equally regardless their creed, tribe, religion,.... We have no any malevolence to any Ethiopians. All what we want is peace, love, justice and spiritual and material prosperity to all our people.

If there are problems with the regime, I believe that people must sit down and solve them together. If it is power sharing, still I believe people must sit down make a palaver to resolve any differences. For me all my wishes for all Ethiopians is one and the same that every Ethiopian must be delivered justice, equality, equity,... and live a decent life than this rustic life our people are living.

However, there are these evil elements who are bent to their knees not to do work for their lives except to live on handouts overseas and hatch and fabricate hatred to create havoc in Ethiopia.

I say to all Ethiopians in general and Tigrayan in particular, let us bypass these evil elements and focus on our development. Let us love each other so that these evil elements will not have a playing ground for their hatred. When Ethiopians love, work hand in hand and forge forward, these evil elements will disappear. They are the bad apples of Ethiopia. They will burn to ashes when Ethiopia blooms and rises to the stars.

Moreover, I call upon the regime to set free political prisoners in our country and to delivery justice in due time to those who must be judged. It is unfair, and un-helpful to keep prisoners for many years without being judged. We cannot go forward if our people are being kept in prisons for years and years without any trial. Even if those who have committed serious crimes must be delivered justice in due time. And the regime must stop creating enemies by its own clumsy hand.

Further, I call upon the regime sooner or later to take finale action against Shabia, we cannot focus on our domestic problems while Isayas is on the back of his war horse.

In conclusion, I call upon all Ethiopians to love each other, and to reject the hate mongers. We need to understand that love is the key of unity, peace, justice, and freedom. We cannot achieve these virtues by hate-mongering. God goes not know our tribal name, all these tribal name only exist in our our tribal mind. Let us use our fascinating history as a jumping board to make differences in the lives of our people.

Love, peace, justice, freedom to Ethiopia.

Long live Ethiopia.
