Dear Tegaru: if you graduated from AAU, wherever you are today, apply to other institutions around the world.
The world remembers that is what Nazis did to Jewish academics & graduates who ended up making great contributions to the world. They will welcome you now more than ever
@BellumPaxBR Would have assumed the eth government was going to use this time to work on its problems in Oromia. It has obviously decided to take the other approach of massacres instead. It looks like things are going to get a lot worse for the country, if that was possible.
The conflict in Ethiopia continues to escalate as the country is mired in violence. Senator @ChrisCoons met with Ethiopian PM Abiy in March. He warns that the "war has gotten absolutely out of hand" and called on PM Abiy to negotiate a resolution before "millions die."
Ethiopia deliberate blockade of food is the fact on #TigrayFamine, people of Tigray are expected to die in silence … @UNOCHA@UNICEF@WFP! 7 million people will not die in silence, b/c they are our mothers, fathers, brothers, & sisters! WE WILL BE THEIR VOICE! #EndTigraySiege
@SolomonT_Y @alenkaranio It is called fascism.
Another version of it will impact you more in the future too. Once this lunacy started and tolerated by people for a political goal, it will never stop. History tells the story.
160 civilians & citizens of Ethiopia were killed in the #DengelatMassacre. 1 year ago today in the #AxumMassacre 800 people were killed. The joint @UNHumanRights & EHRC report barely mentioned Axum, didn’t visit Maryam Dengelat, Mahibere Dego or 90% of known massacre sites. /1🧵
"Gebremeskel says that he & his team found hundreds of bodies lying on the streets of Axum. Most of them were men between the ages 15 & 30. Most lied on their abdomen(prone position); the bodies have started to produce awful smell. #AxumMassacre

@GualJeganu That part of his talk was delivered with such vitriol, it was remarkable.
One of only 2-3 things that he seemed passionate about. The rest was an unconvincing fluff.
"Soldiers and militias subjected Tigrayan women and girls to rape, gang rape, sexual slavery, sexual mutilation and other forms of torture, often using ethnic slurs and death threats," Amnesty International said in a statement on Wednesday. #16Days https://t.co/vcaMAbmgGW
⚠️#TigrayGenocide‼️
“As a white man in Ethiopia, I wasn’t really afraid for myself but I am afraid for Tigrayans.” “knew someone arrested in a roundup or taken God knows where.”

@tmah1670@BurukAregawi @Teklai_Michael Yea nobody is encouraging you to cut her off. That is your business. Just don't try to tell us that her actions are more innocent than the rest of them. The line for us is being told a person participating in a genoicidal campaign against our families is just innocently misguided
@tmah1670@BurukAregawi @Teklai_Michael They say the same things. They incite the same mob. They advocate the same actions and stand by the same people who are choking the people of tigray to death.
For the people dying, there is no difference.
@BurukAregawi@tmah1670 @Teklai_Michael It shouldn't require the phones turning on for someone's conscience to weigh on them to stop being the leading voice of a genoicidal campaign. I don't know many people who haven't lost family members. It is impossible for her not to know that civilians are her primary victims.
