Ethiopian Action for Unity and Democracy

Ethiopian Review has been the most tolerant among the Ethiopian media as far as allowing free expression of ideas and views, even though some of the views expressed tend to be full of hatred and insults. Recently I have been receiving complaints from readers, particularly fellow Muslim Ethiopians, about some comments that are being posted [...]

On this date, July 29, 1936, the Italian forces occupying Ethiopia executed Abune Petros. Italy invaded Ethiopia in May 1936, forcing Emperor HaileSelassie into exile.  Gen. Rodolfo Graziani, who led the invasion forces, proclaimed: "The Duce [Mussolini] will have Ethiopia, with or without the Ethiopians." Ethiopian Orthodox patriarch Abune Petros became the symbol of resistance [...]

Azeb Mesfin, wife of Ethiopia's genocidal dictator Meles Zenawi, a member of the rubber-stamp parliament and boss of the biggest corruption scheme in Africa called "the Endowment Fund the Rehabilitation of Tigray" (EFFORT) has been pushing state banks to the brink of bankruptcy.

Note: This is the second installment in a series of commentaries I intend to offer on U.S. foreign policy (or lack thereof as some would argue) in Ethiopia. In this piece, I argue that the price of U.S. lip service to human rights in Ethiopia without action is demoralization of the brave and dedicated Ethiopians [...]

The Ethiopian opposition groups — both inside the country and in exile — are currently in disarray due to Woyanne's fascistic policies and their own lack of leadership.

The fake President of Ethiopia, Ato Girma Woldegiorgis, who is a puppet of Warlord Meles Zenawi, is reportedly in Saudi Arabia for medical check up.
