TPLF rebels entered several villages last night to mobilize young men for the war with Ethiopia.
Many of the people in these villages don’t support the TPLF and instead support the TPLF Reda faction which split from the rest of the group in 2024 when they made it clear that they want peace.
The recently formed a new party called Simret

So if as Egypt and Eritrea say only littoral states have anything to say about Red Sea, then logically only nations which put water into the Nile, can determine its use.

I'm going to say something that might upset some people, but I believe it deeply and the evidence backs it up.
The single most powerful thing Black people anywhere in the world can do to fight racism is to become collectively wealthy.
Not just individually successful, but wealthy as a community.
I watched this happen with other groups. When Japan was poor, Japanese people in America were put in internment camps. When Japan got rich, suddenly everyone wanted a Toyota and Japanese culture became aspirational.
Korean Americans were targets of violence in the early 1990s. Today, after South Korea's economic rise, Korean culture is one of the most admired in the world.
The pattern is so consistent it's almost boring: poverty invites contempt, prosperity commands respect.
So when I hear debates about fighting racism in America, I always think the same thing. Yes, call out injustice when you see it, absolutely. But also build businesses, create wealth, and invest in your children's education like your life depends on it.
Make your community so economically powerful that discrimination becomes expensive for anyone who practices it.
That is how you win the game everyone else already figured out.

Too many Ethiopian diaspora export outrage while adding only 0.40% to #Ethiopia’s economy‼️Living abroad doesn’t make one an expert in politics, HR, governance, or development. Build schools, hospitals, businesses & jobs or stop fueling hate from afar. #Shame
