The Treason of Sebhat Nega
By Tecola W. Hagos
"In one ignominious interview on May 28, 2007, Sebhat Nega, the man regarded by many as the father of the TPLF, totally exposed his record of long struggle for utterly parochial cause against his own motherland Ethiopia."
Ethiopia needs more “traitor” democrats like Lidetu Ayalew
For democracy in Ethiopia to develop more elite Oromo “traitors,” Tigrayan “traitors” and more Amhara “traitors” are necessary. There are many Ethiopians from each ethnic group who oppose some stances of their own ethnic leaders but don't speak out about it. Tigrayan Ethiopians who do not support the current TPLF ruling sub party’s decisions on vital things like the selling out of Ethiopia’s access to the sea and the lack of space & means for opposition parliamentarians, should speak out and condemn the ruling party. Having seen the backlash against Lidetu Ayalew, such Tigrayans should also be ready to sacrifice whatever reputation they might have had and continue to struggle peacefully.
New Millennium: New Chapter: New Spirit: New Ethiopia

REVISITING THE POLITICAL OPPOSITION: On the Conviction of CUD Leaders (By Tecola W. Hagos)
Let me put it plainly, and do not doubt my words, what is going on in our community in the Diaspora is a fight for the soul of Ethiopia without Ethiopians. It is a fight for a choice between a treasonous political leadership on one side and the former officials of the defunct Mengistu/Derg regime trying to recover the political power they lost in 1991 on the other side. This is a political fight that has been delayed sixteen years and now is catching up with us, for we failed to establish alternate democratic institutions.

True Wisdom from a Millennium Mercy
TPLF cheated the whole Tigray for all those years as a result many people became cannon fodders just for few people's blind philosophy. A philosophy that upholds colonial legacy and a philosophy of self-destruction. We neither value colonialism nor its legacy because we were not colonized. There is no any virtue to uphold a colonial philosophy or its legacy. Truly speaking, un-speakable crime against humanity has been perpetrated by Aboy Sehbhat and his disciples and by Shabia altogether.

The Essentials of Woyane
Happy Birthday, Woyane!
By Asghedom Ghebremichael
In the final analysis, therefore, the visionary fathers had it their way in a
democratic process. Subsequently, they constructed inviolable -cardinal -guiding
principles, which I have called the essentials of Woyane. These essentials can
be summed up by one of the determinant mottos, “Our struggle is long
and bitter, but our victory is certain”. Yes, for a number of reasons,
the struggle was expected to be long and bitter. The determining factors were
the social, economic, political, and natural environment that characterized the
Ethiopian landscape. A revolution to be successful, a complete social transformation
is a prerequisite. This required going to the peasantry, which accounted for
nearly 90% of the total population.
