They are not still willing to recognize the right of Ethiopia to the red sea. I could not believe I am reading such a statement from the people. I have been thinking that 4 years ismore than enough to rethink on at least their basic mistakes. But even after such a time out of office, they haven't show a slightest change. From their program one can simply conclude they are still the other face of the EPRDF.

Here is my recommandation:"As you have no difference with Meles you better beg Meles to give you a position like your former colleague Abay Tsehaye".

Now I understand I was totally wrong in expecting a positive thing from these people. I was hoping that they will come up with a solution to the burning problems of our country

Good observation dawit :

Ethiopian politicians have the same taste. In the public they pretend patriots as no one like them. At the backdoors they leave no  stones unturned to use any possible means to climb up and grab  the power saddle. What are the socalled dessidents all about? how can they make a call as they said it to "ALL NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC FORCES"? Who are those democratic forces anyway?

The only thing i can say is  Meles was lucky enough to make them " Lemisa Yasebun Le'kurse aregnachew" type of the dergue era. those people can not be democratic as thier nature was integrated silence of iternal oppositions, suppressing ideas in the name of democratic centralism. Where are the democratic TPLF individuals that opposed the undemocratic handling  of affairs outside and within the Front? Those are the very people that should be hold accountable along with   their friends in power for every mistake of the past. Satan Cant be an appostle by repenting his past mistakes. Why dont they form a coalition with CUD the collection of opportunists and  warmaking of Col. Mengistu's time?.

i feel deeply disheartened with all those politicians when they talk on the names of fellow Ehiopians  though we all know even  could not emancipate themselves. there is no basic demcratic ground in Ethiopia at this time. if there is any change because of the comig election it will only be a shift in the equilibriun of beneficiaries. that's all. the arguments we hear formally and in every walks of life are not based on universal right and wrong of the spirit of democracy.

But based on supporting or opposing of one or the other group. this shows the political sickness of the country. It's a kind of as if the whole population become  cadres of one or the other group. If we all act as  cadres,  we cant stand for truth but for the person whom we think represents our side.

Democracy only prevails on societies with independent thinking.

God Bless Ethiopia

Dear Friends,

As to me they should be very glad for themselves when the first day they oppose the treasonious policy openly. Because at least they can benefit some  psychological freedom instead of guiltyness. And the other, offcourse if they mean it or realy they have the willing to struggle for the best of their country they should be given the chance to do so. Because a true son could make mistakes but can never hesitate to compensate what cause his own misdeads.

However, those group has many history to tell the puplic yet. Until this time they have released many information and have corrected themselves on some, but as we all know many there many things which it should be addressed to the puplic first before building a cave to hiden again. Let me mentioned some, cause and true history of their death to many members of TPLF-Starting from Resene,Tekhlu, Hayelom,Berhe down to the lower rank members and down to the time they left the organization. If they don't do so,they can't feel free of guiltiness and cure them selves form what keeps them quiet to be cheated. I remember one of them when he replays to the question of Asseb and said "Teashina ena".

And the other, if realy they want to serve their country honestly, why do they want to formulate again their own party? First of all there are approxmately 40 political organizations  already active in Ethiopia now. Even three of them from Tigray, limiting them selves to that locality. The third one is currently called  New TPDM or TPDM 2 which is based in Asmera, for the same sickness that TPLF has come through. I call it TPDM2 because there is a political organization under the same identification which was founded by Dr. Haile, and the first group in the history of TPLF that was exposing all the misdeads of today before it happen and firmly Against Shaebia. So this is going to be the fourth  or the fifth opposition political party in Tigray for Tigray. That is realy creziness! If they don't want deal with the multi-national political parties, at least they should get the courage for excuse to deal with the national onesany how.

And for that sickness there was a lot of crisism from acadimicians for the three facts here bellow: - To fight tribal politics caused problem is not through it's already way in way out. Because the game of bringing the change is going to be demolished by the already existed rule and out look of the people. Besides to that, although your rivilary is weak and is in luck of mass support you are keeping your self as no optional in principle. For that fact you couldn't count a single calory in exceding from the mass and this is limiting the chance to push or move the one aldeay dead in the chair either through legel election or any other means of harboring power.

Most political parties have similar programme and mandate, if so then what is the cause for and the consequences of it, first it's cause of divsion is very clear and that these days any ordinary fellow of country can easly detect that here individual interest is the deriving force thank you to you people and the group still in power and all what is written there is to be taken as prove ,to be not true. So some one whom I have seen him that he is unethical to his principles during struggle how I or any one else could expect trust on that fellow will do the principles agreed?  And secondly it is divisiable to the existing force and some times even dangerious to it self or to the believed principle to come.

And the last, but not the least: Any one whom had been contrubuting to the dificulities and problems of that country society, instead of at least cleaning his dirty hands first so as not to be repeated again and give honest demonistration of the failers to protect them from happening again, they all rush to hide themselves by formulating their block of power, which is political party or seeking exile in their reserved palace. So is bad sample, which we are used to learn about our country's political culture and phenomen. And for that fact also the problem is end less and is keeping the country rest less to it's neth.

Therefore I rather suggest them try to be good model at least here, to seek open excuse for your people for what you did all, and you try to come close your selve to the already existing opposition parties which you believ is better, contrubute what you could in facilitating the process of kiking out your old time best friend the treasonious PM Legesse and his forgide cabinet at least before adds more damege.

Thank you for reading me.
