THE EPRP LEADERS ARE NOT

THE PROBLEM

IT IS THE PARTY ITSELF

They are Lost, Confused and Boring: why change is essential!
By: Dr. G Bekele - 31 October 2002


 Bizarre as it may seem, EPRP ideas are back in fashion. Oh dear, oh dear. Blink and you have missed it: voices from the past are ruining preparations of 2005 elections, which are seen as make or brake for Ethiopia’s survival. Voices from the past rotten era have come back on all directions to ruin all the good work EDP, TISJD and others have done so far. Like beheaded chickens, at first they didn’t know they were dead. The EPRP revival was over. Now they look like a steam-engine society. Oh God they have sunk into jovial irrelevance: they are such a joke, which can’t scare people anymore.  

The EPRP appears, as always to be abandoning their mantra of looking forward and democratic hence have no determination to respond to the concerns of the public. The more the EPRPites are preoccupied with their own navel, the less they are presenting an ideological challenge to EPRDF – and that too, is unhealthy. All they strive for is power for them. Yes bloody power. That is an old members narrow outlook. They are the “faceless securocrats” for trying to frame the other parties and individuals, to wreck our victory over the murderous tyrant in Ethiopia. For God sake, where were they for the past 11/12 years? 

What is one to say about their recent “Unity Formation”, glob-trotting and organizing opposition party conferences? For those with ears to hear, there is the slow drumbeat of impending extinction as one of the major political force. Those who have heard it prefer not to speak their names, because the auguries of death seem all too real. What put people off is opposition parties like EPRP, an opposition hardly worth the name and that do nothing but wage war or attacks everything the government or other opposition does. EPRP is a party of convenience without any clear policies. Therefore, without an audience EPRP’s message is falling flat even though it contains barbs that ought to be drawing blood. Can they truly tell us why they failed to include EDP in the union?  

What people are interested in is to see their manifesto and getting to grips with the real problem they are facing. There is a real danger. The party may prove to be more fragile than the late Ethiopian monarchy, no longer part of the fabric of the nation. It has become a sect talking to itself. Could you feel sorry for them? Probably not. I may be accused for telling the truth. Furthermore, some weak and narrow minded EPRP members may hold grudges against me for airing people’s concern and conduct their usual campaign of hate on web sites and discussion forums as they did in the past four months which I did not give huts but feel this constructive criticism will help them and the public in general. Ethiopia’s future fate is at stake here hence we must speak out. 

For instance, the Ford Escort Car was a successful model. The Mark 5 Model was introduced in 1990 and sold in vast numbers. Face lifted in 1993 and 1996, the car was phased out in 2000 by which time competitor models looked a lot more attractive. In 1999 Ford aimed the new Focus at the same market segment. The Focus was successful because it convinced buyers and experts that it was desirable. Wouldn’t you have liked to own this desirable model then? I would but already had BMW Auto. 735i. Of course, EPRP does not make cars, yet as a brand it has an image every bit as powerful as any car. And as a car it would be a Ford Escort towards the end of its production run, good when it was first designed but overtaken by the competition. The existing EPRP Model will not get more than 1% of the votes and may suffer further if EDP and EDU get their acts together and march ahead. Therefore, what is required is not a minor facelift, but a complete overhaul of name, policy and image. Would the fanatics agree to that? Probably, not.

In the absence of some self-inflicted disaster by the Meles government or EDP and EDU, EPRP and others will only challenge for power by designing a new and modern EPRP, that not only looks new but also has exciting policies on issues that are important to the Ethiopian people and Ethiopia. Most ordinary people do not analyze the details of competing party policy; they rely on the interpretation of knowledgeable experts. They are just as likely to vote on the basis of a more general impression that matters to them, and is on their wavelength and united in its approach. They choose also on the basis of observation of the leader’s personal qualities. We are here to guide them to that end.  

In all these areas the plight of EPRP could hardly be worse. The public talk suggests they are behind all major opposition parties. The overall image of the party is dire. The public does not believe EPRP would make the right decision in government, that they are not in tune with issues that matter to voters and they are not united. When asked which of the major parties would make best government, they are trailing behind every major opposition party. Even though they have softened their language, they have not promised moderation to win public support. The image of EPRP among the Diasporas confirms that while these critical waverers are disillusioned with EPRDF, who they perceive have not delivered key election promises and further betrayed the nation, they find EPRP even less appealing. They lack the critical attributes for modern political leaders, passion and charisma. It would be impossible for any impartial observer like myself to conclude that swing voters imagine EPRP leaders has either.  

The party simply forgot that the public were not merely watching but also thinking to themselves. They came out of their hiding unchanged, unrepentant, just plain attractive. Impressions of the wider EPRP are also negative and comments made by founding members and observers unmitigatingly so. They are seen as a party of the past, containing old aristocrats, warmongers, out of touch with the concerns of ordinary people, happy to talk among themselves but hostile to any one who may intrude or criticize them. In one-word descriptions, they are staid, lost, boring, confused, old searching, in limbo, stagnant and meandering. If the public were to react immediately to these observations, EDP and EDU would overtake EPRP and EPRDF put together. 

If EPRP were to conclude from this that a new and modern interpretation of EPRPism is now required where would they start with this project? Their party would have to start to get rid of “impulsive perverts” like the one in San Jose, California and also elect modern, strong and patriotic leaders who believe in peaceful struggle to bring down the dictators and traitors. EPRP as we all know was preaching war and hate for the past 30 years but failed to gain supports. They need to change this attitude select and elect candidates more representative of Ethiopia today, not of the existing body of EPRP leaders, supporters and not to do so quietly but to shout it loud in public. With a more gentle, modern, peaceful representative set of members and leaders there is a last chance that EPRP will transform to the better party and may develop a more sympathetic, peaceful style and policies grounded in experience of what life is like in modern Ethiopia, not as it is imagined to be by some old fashioned psychopath in San Jose.  

Many old-fashioned EPRP leaders and supporters will guffaw and wonder how anyone can expect them to support a plan for the radical overhaul of their party, its policies and its personnel. Who would blame them for resisting engagement in this project? But the uncomfortable truth for EPRP is that the choice has now been taken away from them. An increasing number of political critics and journalists (of course excluding the London EPRDF Embassy’s battered reporter & so-called journalist Mulugeta Aserate-Kassa), independent observers and political scientists like myself echo what ordinary voters instinctively know, that EPRP must change itself, its name, or die. But I do wish them good luck and promise to write excellent supporting article if they improve.

Most of Dr. Bekele’s article readers including the old and bigheaded hairy runt in San Jose, contemplating the torment of the EPRP, will react like Oscar Wilde – it would take a heart of stone not to laugh. After the long purgatory of the 80s and 90s, when the Derg was cast out in the wilderness, parched for the glimpse of power, the EPRP torment seems like just rewarded. Now even senior EPRP founders are going around cold-calling journalists telling them EPRP has to be put humanly to sleep, and even other observers are so horrified that they are being beastly about them too. As a result, there is a whiff of panic and equally ambition around EPRP at the moment, and no mistake.  

EPRP may have decent members but the leaders have trousers that are a little too high around the tummy, and probably leather brasses too. They say they spend a good 20 minutes each morning buffing their shoes, as the EPRP army thought them to. They are genuinely brave recently to go out there in America, Canada and face bounders with Gatling guns, to never lie and like a good sentimental yarn. But when the public opinion show that may be and only 1% of the Ethiopian 65, million can contemplate them as a future government or genuine and strong opposition party with out falling off their armchairs laughing, their future does look rosy.  

It is true that EPRP seems like terrible political accident just waiting to happen, a slow motion car-crash of a party. As they say EPRP only has about 100 supporters/members worldwide hence I have been generous to say 1% of 65 million. The problems are not the present leaders. Chucking out one leader and finding somebody who speaks better, writes better or is better looking, whatever, does not help at all. The problem is the EPRP itself, the territory it seeks to occupy and the policies it is trying to devise. There can be no revival until the party finds a new role for itself. EPRP’s dilemma now is far worse than before. We can only look at their current wrong propaganda and sabotages against EDP, their weird thinking and fake unity formation, which I will explain later.  

Other opposition parties are too shaving away any decent territory for an EPRP revival. They are left with bashing, biting individuals and progressive opposition parties and crossing their fingers while waiting for some disaster that will finish Meles and all the opposition parties. Actually it might happen. There could be a disastrous downturn in the Ethiopian economy, or some catastrophe emerging from the TPLF/EPRDF crisis, that might yet make the country turn against the Meles regime. Who knows? The old crack about oppositions not winning elections but governments losing them still holds good, and the likeliest EPRP route and dream to success is just to hang about like so many vulture in case mayhem happens. Yet in my humble opinion, EPRP cannot. Because parties must keep thinking and trying to find the right philosophy, or they rot completely. The EPRPites have some weapons. They are Ethiopians of course who strive for change. They have continuing public suspicion about the traitorous Meles regime and have a politically fickle electorate, which long ago ceased to idolize Meles Zenawi and saw through his control freaks. They still have a little section of the public voices, at least but the need to renew and improve their way of struggle is very important.  

What EPRP have to do is, stop damaging other opposition parties, individuals and modernize the party. They have to bide their time and learn from their past mistakes. They are engaged in organizing what is rumored to be fake conferences despite their overwhelming unpopularity with the public. Never the less, we shouldn’t get worked up about EPRP. I don’t see them as a great threat for EDP, other parties or the public. Meles and the Ethiopian constitution will bar them from participating in future election while they are also seem to have been engaged in armed struggle. The recent unity formation looks an attempt to sneak-in through the back door under false pretences. The organizers want to pretend to replace boring old debates with seafront media stunts

Changing lighting effects and themed sessions showcasing the purposely-new faces with old faces and strategies of the party. All of these had considerable mockery potential.

The off stage cacophony underlines that the harder task that faces EPRP is to become a different kind of party, not just hold a different kind of conference to preach unification of useless opposition parties, opportunists and power hopeful individuals. In the face of a gale of media derision, it will be an uphill task. Now things are getting poisonous. The mood of dismay teeters on the brink of despair. The party and its leaders face either the ideas or the confidence to overcome the following problems believed by the public to have existed with the party for many long years. 

LIVING IN THE PAST

  1. EPRP is not fully ready to be recognized as a formidable opposition party or is ready for power therefore they need to do more to prepare themselves for opposition party competition.
  2. EPRP was and still is much the same party who needs to be transformed fundamentally and completely change their method of struggle.
  3. EPRP is still seen as narrow based and give the impression of being out of touch with modern Ethiopia.
  4. EPRP do not seem to have a team of strong leaders as well as genuine, well-respected members and supporters.
  5. EPRP leaders are providing the party weak and ineffectual leadership.
  6. EPRP leaders and members look power hungry therefore they don’t seem to be very much concerned for Ethiopia hence cannot be trusted.
  7. EPRP is seen as “the nasty and old-fashioned party” who makes political capital out of demonizing individuals, opposition parties, is not up to date, competent and unwilling to listen to reasons and constructive criticisms.
  8. EPRP has bad reputation therefore are not able to unite the nation and win.
  9. EPRP wanted the coalition (unity) only to advance its political agenda.
  10. EPRP seem increasingly desperate for survival and personal power. They have no alternative political project and don’t understand modern democracy.
  11. EPRP is not seen as championing the interests of the vulnerable, the oppressed, starved and the war displaced in Ethiopia.
  12. EPRP has proved in its long history that they are not interested in peaceful struggle to bring down the dictator or introduce democratic governance.
  13. It has become very hard to know just what EPRP stands for at the moment and what they have been doing and achieved since 1991.
  14. EPRP is staffed with very old and absurd cults who are not willing to change for good and work with others unless they are given senior positions.
  15. EPRP do not seem to have strong policies for the ownership rights of Ethiopia of The Seaport of Assab and are willing too, to work with the Meles evil regime. 

    THE EPRP MASTERMINDED

    UNITY FORMATION

    “Believe not what you hear but half of what you see.” 

    The EPRP leadership seems to have launched itself into a frenzy of self-reproach as it struggled to shed the image of Ethiopia’s “Warmonger & Nasty old Party.” They must regard the recent conference as make-or-break conference for their party. But they have not set the tone and denounced the party’s past sins – still “unrepentant, just plain unattractive.” But they have made a little progress, but let them not kid themselves and the public. To the public, this just adds up to that EPRP is trying to be something it is not. Cynicism rules and we have not countered it. Hard as it may be for EPRP to accept, we need a strategy that says EPRP has decided to get a life, to join the 21st century, to be representative of Ethiopian society today. If then EPRP are seriously planning to live in the future not in the past, that must have powerful implications for what we stand for.

    Ato Mersha Yoseph, one of the least popular man they say in Ethiopian politics but undoubtedly one of the current self-made undisputed Champions of “United Front” and Commander in Chief of the EPRP armed forces thinks and wishes to register a significant and historical victory in America and Canada over the Meles regime and liberate our country by gathering few EPRP opportunist individuals and parties that do not have many members like that of Gambella People’s Democratic Movement. In this blue skies thinking, it was alleged too that he also drew fierce criticism when he failed to answerer political questions about his party’s method of struggle and their willingness to work with the Meles regime. He couldn’t take the heat. This turns out to have not only been an act of personal arrogance but also revealed to have been part of the all party’s systematic sidelining and undermining of the Assab issue and the general public.

    He believes EPRP and the other eight or nine parties are the only credible alternative to EPRDF. Therefore, theirs and only their unification was a paramount importance to be the solid battleground on which EPRP would re-establish its credibility and in the process, overthrow the EPRDF regime. He also thinks EDP will be the biggest obstacle for this dream to come true hence excluded them from the team. Aren’t we so lucky to have these nine mighty and big battalions? As they say, “you reap what you sow.” But would you know who these conference participants are? They say they are as follows. 

    The 9 parties under the umbrella of “All Party Conference”-Source: ethiomedia.

    • Alternative Forces for Peace and Democracy.
    • Oromo National Congress.
    • Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Party.
    • Tigrai Alliance for National Democracy.
    • Gambella People’s Democratic Movement.
    • Ethiopian People Federal Democratic Unity Party.
    • All Ethiopia Socialist Movement.
    • Ethiopian Democratic Union through Reform, and
    • All Ethiopia Union Party.

    As you are well aware too, there are 65 (sixty five) registered political parties. Can you believe that? Out of these, only 4 (four) of them make the ruling party and 6 (six) are recognized as the major political parties. (Source Embassy of Ethiopia, D.C -Web Site). From the above “All Party Conference” lists, some are neither registered nor does the Ethiopian government officially recognize them as major political parties. Let’s not forget too that OLF and other new parties may come forward to contest the election if allowed and exercise their democratic rights. We are in a big trouble now and I predict that we will be in more troubles from now to the Election Day. 

    My worry therefore is that when the election time approaches, some of these parties will be banned legally or systematically by the regime as being against the constitution, engaged in armed struggle or terrorism to overthrow the so-called officially elected and legitimate government of Ethiopia. Some leaders may even be imprisoned. They will be excluded from participating in the elections leaving the contest for EDP and EPRDF alone. God Help Ethiopia!

    The recent unity formation was seen as dodgy hence clearly lack honesty, transparency and strength to make a difference to Ethiopia’s problems. In fact it showed we couldn’t be united in good faith and for the sake of our country to be able to topple Meles from power. History would not forgive those parties and individuals who are fighting for personal gains at a cost of the unfortunate and our beloved country. Therefore, I suspect that EDP and EDU will stand-alone against the Meles regime from now on. The winner of the 2005 election will be the man with the golden gun that is Meles unless otherwise, all the above sixty-five or at least the major parties are united under one and only one strong umbrella, seek and build full public support before it is too late. Think about it! 

    And for God sake forget about the bloody power and think of Ethiopia and Ethiopians. As an orchestra has only one conductor Ethiopia also needs only one good loyal leader.

      UNITITED FRONT FORMATION

    TURNED OUT TO BE A WEB OF DECEPTION 

    The Ethiopian National Congress (ENC) in a recent statement of the 24th October 2002 confirmed their jubilation of an “All Party Conference” of opposition political parties describing it as “a step in the right direction.” We all welcome and encourage unity. But they failed to mention who those opposition political parties are and why too the leading opposition parties like EDP were excluded. On the other hand, it is alleged that the so-called unity formation lacks teeth. I recently learnt from concerned Ethiopians that the recent so-called unity formation praised by ENC was after all not so rosy and as good as it was described. As listed above we were told there were 9 political parties and now over 10 according to ENC’s claim who were participating on the unity formation conferences but the manner, success and the numbers claimed are now fell into question.  

    Without going into details and adding my interpretations, let me put the message as it was received for your perusal and clear understanding of the so-called nine political parties. If the followings are true then it indeed was a web of fiction and deception hence needs to be immediately stopped. But before that, I challenge the nine parties listed on article entitled “All Party Conference Says Joint Front key to overthrow TPLF regime” on “ethiomedia.com” to immediately come forward and confirm whether these strong allegations are true or not. For your information, the alleged unifications are as follows.  

    THE UNITED NINE LEGGED FREAKS

    1. EPRP (leaders, members and offices are not well known) = one party.
    2. Some individuals from AESM without the consent of their party = 0.
    3. Amarach Hayloch (Dr Beyene Petros) = one party.
    4. Debub Hizboch (Again Dr Beyene Petros)-Representing 2nd party = 0.
    5. 5. O.N.C (Professor Merera Gudina) = one party.

    6. Gambella Democratic Party (Mr. Oujulu – who has no members) = 0.
    7. EDU through reform, Iyasu Ayalkbet a former EDU and currently a captive of EPRP but without organization = part of EPRP.
    8. Hibrehizb a surrogate … captured from Mr Assefa Chebo now led by EPRP leadership of Dr Alemante Gebreselassie and Mr Besha = part of EPRP.
    9. Tigrian Alliance for national Democracy (Allegedly divided into two, Ato Aregawi in USA, Ato Mekonnen and Ato Hailu in Europe = one party.

    EPRP’s extremists are alleged to be members of Amarach Hayloch and Debub Hizboch too. These also include Mr Kedir Mohammed and Mr. Assefa Dapso of USA, Mr. Afewerk of Holland and Mr. Abraham Yayeh. Hence if you carefully work out the above, you will arrive at 4 known parties NOT 9 parties. The rest are EPRP members. Are these winning public recognitions? No they are not. They are in a serious danger of a small minority party incapable of commanding a voice in our country’s affairs. Period. 

    As Churchill’s mordant remark once said, “In politics, one should never commit suicide as one might live to regret it.” They did and certainly should regret it. The way they started was quite wrong and stored up a lot of trouble for the future. “That was a cruel deception.” The public understandably concluded that EPRP is incompetent hence could not run a whelk stall. EPRP therefore need fire in their belly. They will only get it once they brush the stardust from their eyes and realize that the demagnification of politics is not nice at all, but very nasty indeed. Hence, is the recent unity formation conference enough to re-establish EPRP as one of a credible opposition party? The answerer to this question is: No, No & No. For some political analysts listening to EPRP identity crisis is like hearing a rejected lover who drones on and on endlessly about his failed relationship. It has become very boring, in political terms, utterly self-defeating. That is stupid hence these bullying autocrat fighters must return to their caves at once.

    If this story were true, this is not good politics or clever diplomacy. It is of course a terrible dream. It will not work. They are 30 years out of date and seemed to have sunk into a torpid, immemorial and gloom. It is not in the Ethiopian national interest. It looks as though the challenge has changed but EPRP did not change to meet those challenges. As we are clinging to a thin ray of hope to topple this brutal government, they should have merged with strong oppositions to form a super-coalition to win over Meles. For those narrow minded EPRP and the likes of Abraham Yayeh supporters, it could be stated too that my honesty could land me in the shit for bringing these matters to the public. But I hope it just gets people debating. Because there never been in our history a more important time to talk than now about the problems & future of our country. This deception disheartened us horribly, but we all have to bear the truth as best we can. 

    Therefore, if these allegations are denied, then I urge those nine parties to issue a formal “PRESS RELEASE” and send it to ethiomedia.om where their unity formation news was first published. I strongly believe that it is in their best advantages to do it. Equally I urge ENC to comment on these matters also enlightening us about their progress. Others may comment on these too. Last, I honestly would like these things to be wrong. 

    ANOTHER FOOD FOR YOUR THOGHTS

    THE POISONED EPRP DOG NIPS

    DR G BEKELE - THE ETHIOPIAN LION

    The Ethiopian Psycho is at it again – Whew !

    It is one of my customs to keep on hitting and embarrassing devious opposition parties and the government with proven facts and also humiliate the crooks, opportunist supporters like that EPRP Psychopath Mr. GR of San Jose, California I warned you about in my previous article, “Meles Walking On Thin Ice.” If YOU listen hard and follow Discussion Forums, you can hear “this big and bearded beast of EPRP has been roaring from the jungle at me.” His writings were crap they say and he was told they were crap too. Any one who cared to read his junk hate mails on Forums could not make out what he was saying and why he was doing it for 4, months. A vendetta of mad hates of course with the silly single-mindedness of Hollywood’s cyborg the Terminator.  

    He claims to be a Tigrian and Welloye but hates both of his roots, every other Ethiopian tribe and seems in full support of his wife’s country Eritrea. Funnily, he calls patriots like me Bandas for helping the oppressed and the war displaced. I have no objection with these at all but his non-stop campaign to try to ruin my good name has made him an immature prank. I just feel that this half-brained pervert should be made to live with the monkeys somewhere in Eritrea or in American Zoo.  

    This sick-in mind old hag and EPRP cult seemed to me more like an old widow making her shopping list than EPRP supporter. He really is stupid and makes me laugh. But, of course being stupid is not a criminal offence hence we cannot sue him for being so stupid or as a traitor for denying his roots and fabricating false allegations against others or me. The San Jose coward is indeed so boring and always reacted to other’s activities like there is a bad smell under his nose. He is so moron who has no ethics, manners and could not distinguish truth from reality. He is wrong headed and silly to wage hate war by giving me offensive nicknames. He is afraid of talking about issues related to Ethiopia

    His little, foul and tattered words did not affect me at all because he is arrogant, vicious and a thoughtless weirdo. Some describe him as vain, trashy, insane, lackadaisical, stubborn, liar, pig-headed and publicity-seeking imposter. His cries are from wilderness. Mr. GR has been gabbling about EPRP on the Web Sites as well as on Forums but no one to hear him. The attacks on me were hateful and utterly intolerable. Some messages I received described him as “naïve idiot.” He seemed to be begging for humiliation every time to learn the ludicrousness of his nature. That is sickness and stupidity indeed.

    His political sink overflows with filthy words. He is weak and a very old hag past his “sell-by” date. I don’t think I have ever heard a man making such a controlled and threatening noise. It was the noise made by a dog in the moments before it bites. My crime? Daring to write articles attacking Meles, his cronies, and his party EPRP and also standing up for common sense and the rights of the common man in my country. In fact, I never sought publicity and never stood for public office or worked for EPRDF. I am not a member of any party either. I am just a fighter who is fighting according to my belief. Any one who fights according to his beliefs is a hero. Therefore, I should have been credited with helping the helpless and the most oppressed people of our country. 

    Since he first immigrated to North America in the 1960s, they say he has attended “Discussion Forum Universities” daily such as University of TPLF, Awtar, Fiameta, EEDN, Tegbar and Ethioforum and is graduated with “SIX” PhD Degrees in “Foul Language”, “Demonizing Individuals”, “Glamorizing EPRP and demonizing other Political Parties”, “Calling Everyone Banda”, “Defaming Web Sites” and “Preaching Hate.” They say he is like a frisky old dog that grabs your leg. But no one in America knows yet whether he is still a “Puppy or a Dog.” He must be living in a dream of delusion & under the influence of hallucinogen. He is crude, immoral, vulgar and senseless.

    They say he is still attacking me on Discussion Forums. He was sour and offensive. It was bloody silly to do that for four months and keep on moaning every time I mention EPRP, Abrham Yayeh, Radio stations and Newspapers who are flirting with Ethiopian enemies. This only showed how biased and weak he was. When he reads this critique too, I can see his blood pressure rising and make no mistake he will go bonkers and run into another war he could not win instead of analyzing this constructive message or stopping his defaming activities; try to change his attitude and that of his lost, confused and boring party. It is outrageous that EPRP saw fit to associate with such a wild git. 

    This silly man is stuck in the past therefore seemed to have forgotten that he is against a brave fighter, a patriotic Ethiopian and an experienced political scientist who will fight opportunists with all his talent, energy and destroy the evil acts of Ethiopian enemies. He is simply playing with fire. I am sure readers and writers at Awtar, Fiameta, Tegbar & other Forums must have got fed up with Ato GR of San Jose, California. I feel sorry for them too. He is the most disturbed individual who may be suffering from borderline psychosis of some sort. I will always kick the hell out of these sick barking dogs, crooks, pretenders and burry them alive in the deep hole they dug for Ethiopia and me.  

    Finally, those who do not know me yet will come to understand this: when I say a thing, I mean it. When I set myself a task, I do it. When I settle on a course, I stick to it. Hence I cannot tolerate an arrogant in the extreme. I am an Ethiopian fighter hence am here to stay until my country is liberated. Period! Furthermore, do not underestimate the determination of intellectuals and others who sacrificed theirs & their family’s lives, chose to defend the vulnerable and the oppressed in our country. Hence, this paranoid manic-depressive must stop barking, spreading malicious and false allegations to ruin my good name by regularly making personal attacks. Otherwise, the charmless EPRP Monkey will be wrestling with an angry Ethiopian Lion. Oh God this illiterate buffoon is in trouble again. Phew! - Thanks God, I have always avoided persecuting my enemies!

    What a luck! I would have made a good Pope in Vatican.

    PS: To order a copy of GR (The Ethiopian Psychopath’s) new book written in broken English Language and entitled B A N D A for US$1.00 with free p & p, call Abraham Yayeh’s Fun Club and make the silly bugger filthy rich. He needs your help to form a provisional government in San Jose, California, USA.

    G Reda of San Jose, Where is his shame? He really makes me laugh. – Hahaha!

    He is awful but I like him.

    May God Bless Mother Ethiopia!
