It has been a while since the Ethiopian movement for democracy heard a great news. Today's decision by the House International Committee to unanimously endorse the Ethiopia Freedom, Democracy and Human Rights Advancement Act of 2006 (HR 5680) is, however, a truly great news. Ethiopians in USA should now work hard, lobbying your representatives to vote for it when it goes to the full house. This is a defeat to a once respected philosophy instructor at Addis Ababa University(now a discredited TPLF servant), one Samuel Assefa. Hail to the diaspora.
I am confident that there will be more good news from home. Watch this space.

Dil le Kinijit Merowotch
Dil le Ityopia Hizb
Excited? What is that good news from Ethiopia?
Victory to CUD
Victory to AFD.
KINIJIT is the way and AFD would bring peace and democracy to our nation. Lets be vigilant and keep on working hard.
i am very suspicious of this new bill........who here has read it?
"(HR 5680)" this is not the old one, and the fact that the democrats and repablicans indorsed it quicklly suggests that there have been some big compromises on the part of Congressman smith....Untill we read this new bill......we should not be too excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bulga,
I have read it and trust me it has
solid tooth to it.
