Stamping out corruption in Africa: a dream or a reality?By Tsegay Gebriye (London)
The newly born AU (African Union) is preparing to take the bull by the horns to try to stamp out corruption or is it? Corruption 'costs Africa billions'(BBC, 18 September, 2002)
The intention is noble and must be applauded, but the devil is in the detail. A mere signing of a convention or the introduction of new legislation alone will not stop corruption.

TIME WE HAD HALL OF SHAME and SHAMERS OF Meles’s tplf/EPRDF SUPPORTERS ON THE INTERNETBy: Concerned Ethiopians in United Kingdom (14th September 2002)
There is a saying in London, “If you are tired of London you are tired of life.” But in our case and most other Ethiopians in London we are not tired of life nor London but Mulugeta Aserate Kassa’s non-stop lies, disgraceful behavior and his fight against his people, his church and his country.

THE HAGUE COURT’S VERDICT ... UNJUST AND DETRIMENTAL TO THE IROB MINORITY:Commentary Based on Principles of Biblical Justice and Values
By Rev. Abba Tesfamariam Baraki - An Irob-Ethio-American Citizen
Washington, D.C. (September, 2002):
"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality tied in a single garment of destiny." [Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.]
When Justice Is Abused: The purpose of this article is to critique, in the light of biblical truth, The Hague’s Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission’s verdict of 13 April 2002, which denied justice to the Irob people in the Irobland, as well as to condemn the hasty UN Security Council’s endorsement.

EDP'S TORCH LIT IN LONDON TO SYMBOLISE UNITY, HOPE AND LIFE FOR ETHIOPIATHEY DARED AND THEY WON
By: Dr. G Bekele - 10 September 2002
"Standing shoulder to shoulder with EDP rather than Shaebia, like that of the Meles regime is a way of defending Ethiopia and Ethiopians. The problem remains to be that TPLF and EDP are not "out of the same womb politically." EDP is Ethiopian and TPLF is a Shaebian agent."

TPLF Fanatics: Barking at the wrong TreeBy Kiros Girmay (September 7, 2002)
So many things have been said about TPLF and the people of Tigray.
What is puzzling is that the die-hard supporters of TPLF can come up with so many
excuses for their support in the past and with some residue still lingering in
their mind. TPLF is and was against Ethiopia, no matter if it was because of
Meles, Sebhat, Alemseged or anyone who was in the leadership.

The Eritrean invasion of 1998 is still fresh in the memory of the people who inhabit the border areas. The devastating army not only killed and brutalized said people, but also stole and vandalized their property.

THE DEVIL - CROOKS & CONMEN OF ETHIOPIABy Dr. G. Bekele (August 30, 2002)
THE DEVIL, they say, has all the best tunes. He also has some of
the best stories. Like it or not, the rascals, scoundrels and
rogues of this world are generally more interesting characters
than the good guys. In fact, as well as fiction, their names and
their escapades are often better remembered than those of the heroes.

Solidarity: A New Generation of Dynamic Political ActivismBy Ethiomedia.com
WASHINGTON DC (AUG 27)- A new political dynamism has caught up with Tigrians, and it is a transition from TPLF-controlled dull life to a one-country one-people political culture. At the Solidarity Festival held in Washington DC over the weekend, Ethiopians of Tigrai origin are working hands in glove with each other to ostracize the Eritrean clique of Meles Zenawi, stamp out the self-destroying TPLF legacy, and help build the rule of law in Ethiopia with same-minded fellow Ethiopian compatriots.
