Federal police shot dead a young man who tried to escape from the round up in Addis Ababa. Abebe Hailemariam who was in early twenties was killed when he refused to accept instruction by the federal police to enter the police garage in front of the Sheraton Addis where hundreds of young men who were rounded up from the streets of Addis were held. Abebe lived in the neighborhood of the Filwha area where the round up was the most rampant. The EPRDF government had reptile conducted raids in the Filwha and Arogew Kera area in the last two weeks.
Eye witnesses said Abebe was trying to escape what locals call "affessa" when police opened fire and killed him.

Fools and lies
I have on different times declared my allegiance to Ethiopian pro-democracy movements particularly Kinijit. I still think that despite the rivalry and problems in Kinijit diaspora, the party is strong and indivisible. I hope the two groups, despite their differences, will stop slinging mud on each other and get on with their job of organizing kinijit supporters.
This leads me to kinijit.org's recent attack on Andargachew Tsgie. The website claimed that Andargachew wasn't a CUD council member. What a lie! In mid August 2005, Kestedemena convened a meeting to elect its 12 people for the the CUD CC. The following were elected:Dr. Brehanu Nega, Wt. Birtukan Mideksa, Dr. Yacob H. Mariam, Dr. Shimelis Tekle Tsadik,Ato Debebe Eshetu, Ato Kidanemariam Hagos, Ato Bedru Adem,Dr. Abdu, Ato Daniel Asseffa, Ato Andargachew Tsige, Dr. Befekadu Degueffe and Ato Dibaba Amensisa. However, it was stated that Andargachew couldn't attend the CUD CC founding meeting as he was in exile. There was also a feeling that some of the elected members might be absent. The Council therefore decided to elect 2 alternate members for the CUD CC. These were Nigist G. Hiwot and Yeneneh Mulatu. All the 40 members of the Rainbow Central Council, including Zebene, were delegated to attend the Founding Conference of the CUDP. Three of elected members CUD CC from Rainbow, including Bedru Adem, Andargachew, and Kidanemariam Hagos didn't attend the founding conference, reducing the number of Rainbow elects for the CUD CC to 11. Zebene was then delegated by rainbow to fill the vacant seat as the twelfth member.This is the true story.
I ask the good men at kinijit.org to remove the post. There were 40 rainbow members who could be witnesses to the truth. Don't make fool of yourselves. Let deception ends at Aigaforum.

Zagol the Great,
Thanks for the update! What a sad, sad story? How long is this beastiality going to be tolerated?
Where is the army? The defender of the Motherland?
Kill these woyanes, kill them all one by one!!!!
Zagol,
Thank you for the clarification for the denkoro bunch Stateside. But, I hate to disappoint you there are no good men/women on kinijit.org.
eskinder, daniel, girma, diana, mogus, getachew haile, hapte, abate have all lost their mind. Spewing venom and fabricating trash in tandem with AIGA is ALL they are doing these days.
Who knows if Samuel Assefa or the CIA has put them on the payroll?
First of all let me pay a tribute to the young man who is murdered by TPLF OCCUPYING ARMY FORCE CALLED AGAZI BULLET in the middle of his own country, his own city, his own neigborhood by a force only made up of TIFRAM TEGRES are going to pay for his death.
Those who are undermining our organization, the most representative political organization should stop and think twice before they kill this only hopefull movement to bring freedom to the Ethiopian majority. It is to be recalled Kinijit International has been included under the AFD movement. Our collective struggle is NOT going to fail no matter what! But those who are doing the harm to the best political organization should stop because what they are doing is going to undermine our resolution and can only lead to extend the suffering of the Ethiopian people.
Its best we respect each other and believe the organization is bigger than individuals. Lets all commit ourselves to the movement, we can always resolve our differences after we secured victory but for the moment please let us all tolerate each others shortcomings and work for one goal, to remove and ultimately evict this murderous regime from our land.
EZ
Since you are committed to discredit KNA and promote the woyane stooge Andargachew, just why don't you post the official list for a change. All information is in your pocket including the stroke hit Bereket Simone and his historic flight to Telaviv for survival
You idiot above,
KNA/Yosef has already discredited itself, gabish!
Don't vomit all over EZ. The list is already published and nobody cares about some cheap lebas, forgerers.
Now you are Bereket's "tebeka" how low are you going to stoop?
Zagol the Great. Thank u for this great advice. Those who have ears to listen can hear this advice and those with deafs ears can wait closing their deaf ears until the sun shines
Ethio Zagol,
I am not clearly understanding your post. For clarity purpose on the subject could you list the names of all 60 that were elected. From your post my uderstanding is that Kestedamena nominated or elected 12 members of which one was Ato Andergatchew. However since he and two others who were elected by Kestedamena were not present or could not attend they could not be elected and 3 replacements were elected as replacements representing Kestedamena. If this is correct what Kestedamena had hoped and intended did not take place or their wish could not be accomplished due to the rules.
Therefore, Ato Andergatchew is not an elected Kinijit Counsel Member no matter how you put it. The controversy is based on his assertion that he is an elected Kinijit Counsel Member. One can appreciate the fact that he was a nominee by Kestedamena however not elected, he has on a few occasions stated that he is a member of the Counsel which now puts doubts in my mind as to how he is representing himself.
Why did he feel it was imparative for him to extend the truth to state the above if he was a nominee and not elected due to his not being present? What was the purpose? This as a supporter of Kinijit in principal but not invoved in the hoopla that is taking place between group A & B; but this leads me to wonder as to what is going on? Both sides are wasting precious time and energy trying to outwit each other when the struggle is really to free Ethiopian's and the leaders from their misery. I wish we could all look deep into oursevles ask Gods forgivness and each other, and truly forgive each other then work togther as one children of this great nation. I am saying this as we are looking to celebrate Christmas as Christians and Eid-al-Adha as Muslims all as children of Ethiopia a mosiac nation of many.
Let us see here.
1) CUD-Kinijit is formed and all is lovely. EPRDF is SATAN.
2) Then Lidetu Ayalew and EDP are Banda's and the stooges of the great SATAN. Everyone else, REAL ETHIOPIAN.
3) Then, Kinijit members who joined parliament, all 100 of them are Banda's and stooges of the great SATAN and everyone else is REAL ETHIOPIAN.
4) Then, Beyene Petros is a stooge for joining parliament and a servant of the great SATAN.
5) Then Berhanu Deressa, the temporary mayor of Addis is the BANDA and a stooge of the great satan.
6) Lastly, now, Andargatchew Tsige and Berhane Mewa are the great Stooges of WEYANE , I mean SATAN, and everyone else, whoever is left is REAL REAL Ethiopian.
7) WE ARE WAITING OF SHALEQA YOSEPH GROUP TO DIVIDE IN TWO AND CALL EACH OTHER, YOU ARE STATAN, NO YOU ARE SATAN. NO YOU ARE. NO NO NO YOU ARE. NO YOU ARE . NO YOU ARE. YOU LOOK MORE LIKE SATATN. NO YOU ARE. NO YOU ARE.
YOU ARE A SICK BUNCH AND I THANK GOD EVCERYDAY THAT YOU HAVE NO POWER IN ETHIOPIA. WHAT A PATHETIC BUNCH.
Previous anon before satan,
Zagol is telling you that Andargachew is one of the 12 members elected to Kinijit CC from Kestedemena. Since he was out of the country he did not attend the founding conference of CUDP Sept 24, 2005. Instead an alternate Zebene was chosen to stand for him.
Gabish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some of the denkoros in the shalaqa cabal are fabricating stories to confuse people like you.
Anonimous above.
I think you want to keep on believing in your lies - so continue to believe in your stupidity. The anonymous before the one ranting above your note was asking for a clarification - not an invention of the imagination like yours!
EZ,
Let me see: first, it was Andargachew was nominated, but couldn’t attend the CC meeting; second, there was a ‘feeling’ some of the elected (nominated?) might be absent’;
third, the CC decided to elect (nominate?) 2 alternate members, i.e. Nigist G. Hiwot and Yeneneh Mulatu; fourth, all 40 members of the Rainbow CC, including Zebene were delegated to attend Founding Conference of CUDP; fifth, 3 of elected (nominated?) members of Rainbow CC, Bedru Adem, Andargachew and Kidanemariam Hagos didn’t attend the Founding Conference, reducing the number of Rainbow elects for the CUD CC to 11; (Bedru Adem and Kidanemariam Hagos were absent but were elected to fill their seats). Sixth, Zebene was delegated to fill the vacant seat as the twelfth member. In my understanding then, Andargachew is still not elected, whatever you might want to say. You can make him your no. 13, if you wish.
the misunderstanding lays on
elected members,
elected alternate members and
delegates
As EZ stated Andargachew is/was an elected CUD cc member, elected by Rainbow! However, while he is in exile he is represented either by one of the elected alternate members or by the delegate!
Kinijit supporters should evaluate and support those working for the struggle! Rather than wasting their time on defamation, Kinijit.org should have used the web page to mobilize kinijit supporters! These days, it is hard to see any difference between kinijit.org and ethiolion.com. Kinijt. Org should have been different from AAPO.org.
EZ
Yayit misqura denbit. You caome out shamelessly to save a woyane stooge. Post your list of the council. We will se this time who you will delte from the list, the first time around Hailu Shawel was deleted. Try to be more careful this time.
Anonymous above, please atadenkuren with you useless arguments.
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia: Ethiopia's government media barrages the public with justifications for war with an Islamic movement in neighboring Somalia. Many in Ethiopia's capital, though, don't buy it.
http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2006/12/22/africa/AF_GEN_Ethiopia_Somalia.php
Even if the Tplf regime bombards the public with pro-war propoganda, the wise Ethiopian public don't buy the regimes war mongering to stay in power. The Tplf regime should understand that in the era of information, it can not fool anybody.
last anon,
My God! thank you for setting the record straight. What you wrote is precisely what happened with the hearing. Can you imagine Kinijit not being able to afford a round trip ticket from London to DC? You see the Shalaqa group has been working behind the scenes to derail the struggle from the get go. We all thought at first that it
was sheer incompetence, but now when you connect all the dots it leads to a major conspiracy to kill
the struggle. You know what, the heroic leaders in Qaliti will be free, inspite of us and the truth will be revealed. Woe to yoseph, mogus, seyoum, solomon and all those traitors who are helping Meles stay in power a little longer. They will not only answer to Hailu Shawel, Berhanu Nega, Bertukan Mideksa, but to the Ethiopian people as well on whose sacrifice they are spitting on.
EZ and all those heroic Kinijit supporters at home are paying much too much sacrifice that none of these clueless jackasses in the diaspora would ever understand.
In fact, it is a good thing that most of these idiots are here and will remain her. Lord knows, we have enough woyane denkoros to deal with.
The future belongs to the heroes of Kinijit who will not be stopped from bringing woyane down, no matter what. The well orchestrated effort to attack Andargachew and Berhane is meant to frustrate these men of steel but luckily they are unwaveringly committed to the Leaders in Qaliti and will not budge one inch until they are released to assume the leadership of their beloved Party.
The few, the brave, the committed kinijitites, like me, are in for the long haul and will make sure that Ye Ityopia Tensae will become a reality.
God bless Ethiopia!
Long live her patriotic children!
Sosena
Sosena,
I understand very well your frustration. However couldn’t you have said what you said here in softer tone?. I don’t think threatening your enemies let alone your compatriots will assist you reach your goal faster. Why do we Ethiopians thing either you are with me or against with me? Is it impossible to reach a point from different direction? As long as we have our eyes on the price, let assumed intent bother us too much. Soon or later we will see who is doing the right thing to our beloved country. Let us increase our tolerance focus our attention like a laser beam on our well-identified enemy, the Woyanes. Please be assured of my highest admiration for all what you are dong.
sorry this one is better than the above.

We know that even some people who we thought were on our side have betrayed the cause for a 15-minute fame. We know that 'cia' is working day and night to make sure Meles stays in power so they can continue to exploit Ethiopia's foreign policy. We are also aware so many other tricks they have been introducing to switch our attention from the main problem, TPLF occupying our country. I am sure you all know Solomon Tekalign the renouned singer who was brought to entertain the troops dying in the name of freedom was bribed by "cia" to say unnecessary and unproductive thing in order to undermine the EPPF struggle. So it would not be a surprise to us if 'cia' would intervene in Kinijit-International to frustrate our struggle and give Meles and TPLF to do more damage to our country. We have evidence to the claim above.
We also are well aware that there are several others who make us believe they are on our side while they were hired enemy cadres and during the great protest throughout the world we were able yp expose them and their intentions. But we must NOT derailed by them, we know what we want; to free our country from the lock by TPLF WOYANES (BANDITS). If we take off our eyes even for one minute we will lose our target, so the best thing to do is stay the course and bring TPLF down. That is our number one task, the simple misunderstanding should be put aside and work toward freeing our people suffering inside this blessed land of ours. We will drive TPLF out of our land by putting more pressure on its policy. We must continue the fight its a matter of weeks and months before the collapse of the ETHNOCENTRIC TPLF money collecting regime, if we work together.
GOD BLESS ENAT-ETHIOPIA!!!
DEATH TO TPLF and their supporters!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude, don't mess with Shaleka Yoseph. He is the real leader of KNA. KIL is a a forgery.
We are determine for our country. How about you. If you are stop talking show action!!! said...
Well I did go over all the comment made by anonymous. I think if that what he thinks about Andargachew we should respect that. We couldn't force some one to accept what we think Andargachew is. I did get a chance to meet Andargachew during H.R. bill hearing last March. When we took Andargachew to see Greg, Congressman Christopher Smith Legislation assistant, when we were screening people to testify to congress he was astonished by what Andargachew told him about TPLF and listed him as number one testifier. Of course later after we paid his ticket and brought him from England to testify the idiot's those who called themselves Kinijit North America took him away from us and told him since you are our central committee member you have to testify under us and they told him their $100,000 hired lobbyist will coach him for testimony. They warned him not to contact us. We were disappointed at that time because we brought Andargachew and Obang and planned that evening a day before the hearing to discus how we would be able to use the time effectively to address most important issues and expose TPLF and their real personality by avoiding repetitions of wording and situation to save time and to reach all the audience. Our disappointment came after we found out that his testimony were limited by their lobbyist approval. He was told by so called Kinijit North America at that time not to use the testimony he prepared for the hearing. Later the same week he presented what he prepared for the hearing testimony on Ethiopian Advocacy Forum. That was what Greg was expected him to present.However,we were satisfied with our effort because when we were working on the hearing one of our plan was to show the public the struggle in Ethiopia is not regional. We worked that evening with Obang to prepared for the hearing and found out that he had various idea, knowledge and first handed experience about the TPLF and their system. He did a wonderful job not only on testimony he did a marvelous job to target the Congressman and women to clear their wrong knowledge about TPLF and showed a true picture of TPLF because always TPLF pictured the Ethiopian people struggle as Amara struggle. Actually not then know I am disappointed by those people who told him at that time he was their central committee member he had to testify under them but know they labeled him as TPLF member or supporter because they did not agree due to their internal crisis. By the way I have to tell this for the record. When we were preparing for the hearing after we selected a list of people and get approval from congress we decided to approach Kinijit North America if they can financed Andargachew expenses to bring him to USA from England. The ticket price was if I remember about $490 and his travel arrangement was done by us. They were not willing to support even on his Visa. He had a problem with USA Embassy in London because of the short notice we have to e-mail back and forth to get a letter sent from congress to USA Embassy in London to accelerate his Visa. But we were surprise after he arrived in US he was told he had to testify under them. As far as I know his past relationship with TPLF was more related to serve his country not TPLF. I don't think I have to tell to my Ethiopian fellow above because Andargachew could have been at least UN ambassador by now if he wanted to stay with TPLF government. However, he decided to get out of the country within 2 years after TPLF start functioning in the country. He left because he didn't agree with their government. He is doing the same thing now. Thank you EZ for your commitment to your country. I know you are in side of fire I am in a country where even if some thing happens to me I can hire my own lawyer and fight without any fear. But I heared how you and your friends are working and committed for your people and your country. Please don't bother what happen in USA by irresponsible and clueless people who do not even have a gut to respond and make a true commitment to free their country from repression. The struggle here will be intensified very soon. Then we can see who stand for the struggle of Ethiopian people. My Ethiopian fellow if you are with Ethiopian people let the differences behind get back to do the work if you are working. I advice other people also please let concentrate on the work there are a lot of things we can do. Don't concentrate on those individual just ask yourself what you can do for your country and for your people. Again I would like to encourage you and also tell you openly how much we are strength by your dedication as Ethiopian to committee your self for the struggle regardless of the your surrounded environment . I will tell you are giving us energy knowing that. However, we are Ethiopian and our country needs us and we should be stand for the truth and for our people. We should be ready to pay any cost for our beloved people and country. Less talk more action.
Love Ethiopia
Dear EZ,
Thanks again for your update.
The war between KIL and KNA is embarassing and disgusting.
Left or right the center of the conflict is Andargachiew Tsigie. He may be a good person but his previous record and alliance with Melese Zenawi made him a suspicous figure among Kinijit memebers and supporters. No matter what, we can not continue our support divided like this.
Why can we resolve the crissis by advising Andargachiew Tsigie to withdraw his leadership position from KIL until our leaders are released.
It doesn't matter, elected or unlected - trusted or not trusted by jailed leaders, for the sake of peace and stability let him help the struggle with out being a leader. It is that simple if Ethiopia is a priority.
I always said Shaleqa Yoseph is incompetent by all measures, now he is hiding behind Andargachiew Tsigies bad record.
For heaven sake let us resolve the crissis by removing Andargachie and Yoseph from a leadership position.
About the killed person:
I was near the Shertaon area in one of the nights last week and there was some activity infront of the Shertaon Hotel. The cabs (waiting for a contract deal) were empty except one cab. When I asked the driver of the cab where all the others had gone, he said that one young man was killed trying to run away when he was asked to stop by the federal police. I don't know why they asked him to stop. But I know that he was killed.
It's really sad to see the gov't getting back to Dergue style afessa.
Kills today please concider you will die tomorrow
In our country history for the last 30 yrs we have been seening killer replaced by another kills.Their replacement is marker by their own death and misery.The population they are killing are their own county men who have the same vision and same aspiration .The killer is not from another country or another planate he is the citizen of the same country.
The only different they have between the two is the victim stand for freedom the killer want repression the one who is is killed whant democracy the killer want dictatorship.The one who died want governement by the people for the people the one who killed want tribal and ethnic hagimony.
Is it it time we find a way out of this mess ? We tried feudalizm it did not work,we tried socilaizem it did not work,we are now in tribal dictator ship it is a disattor.Let us try democracy let study it, learn it and put is to practice let us give it a shot it works.

EZ, please moderate your comment links...it is getting ugly.
The CUD Leaders are not the one who lost the election. They were elected even by the peasants they won the election. However, the Ethiopian people included the peasant are the one who lost the election because their vote was stolen by EPRDF/TPLF. They went to preason not because they were try to fight for their seats. The went to prison because they want the people vote to be respected. I don't think I have to tell you about those leaders you know them very well. They did it for the people and they are determine to do it again and again. You can say what ever you want but you need to understand that the Ethiopian people now determine to stand for their voice. That was the main reason they died on the street of every corner of the country. You probably think it is over. I will advice you to read and learn no one stopped people desire for democracy. It looks like it was stopped when you see tyranny forces suppressed the people struggle. However, when it comes out it will come out and burn likes a fire. I would advice you to read. When you read you will respond with knowledge and understanding. You will become a resourceful citizen of the country with well balance knowledge. Your mind wouldn't be easily manipulated by weak people who use their power to control other people. When you have more knowledge you would also reserve from making bad comment about other people. When you comment about other people automatically will show your education standard and your ability to function with confidence and serving people with honesty. We give our support to our people.
The guys at Kinijit.org at list produced a paper document for substantiating their alligation.Who are you to trust with your writng which is not different from what andargachew claimed. You didnt show as any proof. Oh!! Sorry! Iforgot this is a blogging site. Just hersey!
your discussion regarding kinijit is so boring. guys move on.
Do yo know Andergachew is the one who drafted CUD manfiesto. He used to organized and corrdinate CUD members and leadership. He would be the strong fighter.
Thanks Zagol to clean up some comments

There has been confrontation between federal police and young people as the federals seemed to
round up (pick up) people. The people throw a shower of stones on the federals and they gone away.
this happened at zero sidist sefere kolfe west of Addis.
At evenings usually at 9pm they ask ID if you don’t hold an ID you will be forced to get into a
federal minibus, when you resist they will kick hard. What a terrible time have we reached?
physically, psychologically, economically attacking and humiliating us.
