STOP THE ORGY OF SLAUGHTER IN ETHIOPIA BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE

-
It’s time for responsible African Heads of State and Government to take the nihilistic #OPDO cabal in Ethiopia and its collaborators to the International Court of Justice, #ICJ, for the war crimes perpetrated with impunity.  If Africans have any respect for Ethiopia, they ought to be clear eyed about the orgy of extermination ravaging this ancient and troubled dominion. Have African leaders no eyes and ears? Have they no shame? Entire regions/nations are being marked for total extermination not only of humans but also of livestock, farms, and the whole environment.  Ethiopia hasn’t been known for Freedom, durable peace, or social harmony. Tyranny has had deeper and deadlier roots. But it’s different this time, even by the horrendous standards of the empire of liquidation. A new species of tyranny is born, powered by hate and demonic rage, and hell-bent on destroying everything, desecrating everything. Ethiopia blossoms in gore. Genocide is already evident according to informed and cred

  It is easy and quite natural to get upset with the latest provocations emanating from Addis Ababa. And the temptation to scramble for an immediate, gut-level response or scream is real, even irresistible.  However, it’s equally important to be clear-eyed about who are the culprits behind the provocations and the real intentions and motivations stirring them. A dispassionate, clinical diagnosis and forensic investigation and a calibrated strategic response is imperative. My unsolicited advice to the FGS and free Somalis is  1) Do not panic. Don’t rush to take a bait.  2) Ethiopia is no more. Tigray, Amhara anda much of Oromia are ravaged by war, insurgences, famine, and mass slaughter. Genocide looms large.  3) Strategize and quietly mobilize to isolate and expose the paranoid and genocidally inclined cabal of chauvanists and war criminals for who truly they are. Don’t throw them a life line by gracing them with sovereign agency and legitimate authority.  4) Presidents and senior exec

DJIBOUTI AND ERITREA NEED TO NORMALIZE RELATIONS

-

  Littoral countries The imperatives of geography and history made Djibouti and Eritrea neighbors and bequeathed them strategic lands and maritime assets indispensable to global security, commerce and trade. They, together with Somalia, dominate the longest, contiguous coastline on the Red Sea and Indian Ocean. Geopolitical imperatives of the Horn of Africa call for, even compel, mutually beneficial alliance and long-term partnership. It’s time for Djibouti and Eritrea to normalize relations. A perpetual state of hostility is costly to both. A zero-sum game is infinitely worse.  A win-win option would yield optimum gain for both; and, more importantly, promote regional peace, stability and economic cooperation.  For over a century, the region has been brutalized and bankrupted by wars waged for hegemonic purposes or imperial hubris. Such foul ambitions and suprematist fantasies still animate and intoxicate new cohorts of fanaticism and extremism. But these represent the past. The futur
