What the heck!
Is there such a procedure on earth, let alone the Ethiopian Criminal Procedure code? Well, we can agree if you tell me that it is not the Ethiopian Procedure Law, obviously, the juntas' phone orders that came after their "bercha", governing the system. TPLFites, it is high time that you advise your Mafia group to release these national treasures of Ethiopia. They appear once out of the 3000 years of ethiopian states. we Ethiopians can't afford to loose them or keep them in that prison for a day. You will pay for what you did till now. But, that should be the end of the story. Otherwise...otherwise... well, you may say that this is a mere threatening-the neftegna fukera-but, not this time. Not really.We have yet sustained and endured all the autrocities for the sake of our beloved country, Ethiopia, but now, we are begning to question- What is Ethiopia with out its people for whom we hung up our hope much. What is Ethiopia while everyone in it is risking death or prison terms at any time and at any moment? what is Ethiopia, when its people are devoid of the pride and honor they used to stick with, and have left being ashamed, while its people are....... all those autrocities. It is time, Really time for us to question ourselves. Well, Shabia, yeah, it gives you nightmare, but as lond as we agreed on the terms, no reason not to take hands with it, to take you -off. We cut our loss, and that has been real and hence, we will seek all the means, everything to get ride of you morons.
If Woyanes, can't understand the civilised and tolerant responses of millions of Ethiopians, then it is high time to think of the means they understand most.
NO MORE WISHY-WASHY ANALYSIS OF THE COWARD ELITES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well done our justice system these neftgea all have to die in prison naturraly if posibel if not we will kill them ya kill all CUD BUT not like dergu we kill them slowlly for the world not to notice one by one the ppl of tigray sufferd long enough it is time for the rest to sufer for you who seek to be free my messege is not easy you will never see it in your time so forget it go to you pal talk and cry that is what you are capable notting more LONG LIVE TPLF AND OUR GOLDEN RACE
Woyanes will not understand any thing unless you speak to them in their language, and their language is "TEMENJA" , If any wants to save the prisonors it is time that he join the armed strugle , enough is enough dont be full to wait for a pleasant out come from the trial
again lets join the armed strugle and save these people from death raw victory for ETHIOPIA !!
No surprise at all. Expecting justice from Weyane Kangaroo court is like expecting mules to bear foals. I am witnessing irrational expectations from Weyane again. Before May 2005 so many people expected geniune democractic process from Weyane, they were wrong. Even after the election so many people expected weyane to accept at least the national unity government offer from the opposition, they were wrong. And now so many people are expecting justice from Weyane. I wish they are right and I am wrong this time around.
Let's face it. Meles has a great deal at stake in the peaceful resolution of the situation. He is wildly at odds with the population, he runs the risk of isolating the Tigrai people and dampen their future in greater Ethiopia, he knows the flurtaion with the USA is not going to last forever as their long term security interest in the horn comes thru a stable Ethiopia, he is one egocentric tyrant who cares for his own legacy,... the list can go on.
It is not unreasonable to assume that if we dust the facade of macho rehtoric and th flexing of Agazi muscle, we will find a Meles that is scared and wanting an exit opportunity.
As much as they are nerve racking, one can read a lot into this short court appointments; one of them being related to the purported negotiation "Shimglina" underway.
Dear Ethiopians, there would be nothing to expect from this symbolic court. Please let's stop calling these criminals( Meles and his followers) Woyane. Woyane is diectly related to the people of Tigray. The people of Tigray is also suffering from this wonbede administration like other Ethioians brothers and sisters. They aren't, and never represent the people of Tigray. They all Eritreans! The real Tigreans are in jail, killed or left their beloved country. These wonbedes use the name woyane to get back from our people. Tigreans are tired of Meles and his liers. We shouldn't let them do whatever he wanted to do. We must pay everything to free our leaders and our country from this junta.
Oh, a ludicrous comment from the Mr commentator above me. It is really commical to see most of the hard dying TPLFites associating Melese with Eritreans, as if he didn't get the momentum of his support from the tigray people. Mr., are you gonna deny that 99% of the people who are beating, kiiling and arresting out people are not tigres? Are you gonna deny that the Agazi are tigres, are you gonna deny that all the hate monger people on aigaforum are tigres, are you gonna deny that no individual from the "golden race" has ever joined our hands in our demonstarations for the release of our leaders? Are you gonna deny that it is the tigres elderlies, who suppress any opposition voiced from within TPLF in a quest not to "let the power comeout of tigreans"? Can you point me to any one of these generations who apparantly opposes this regime? Don't mention me those people who have run out of TPLF due to a dispute in power sharing. The maximum opposition these people voice against Melese is that he is an Eritrean. No, no, no, TPLF is in serious conflict with Shabia, and we can see that. We should, and are making advantage out of this opportunity to get ride off this narrow minded ethnic regime. Mr. commentator, I always hear that TPLF is not good to Tigrayan people. So, why don't they oppose him and join the democratic forces hand? Why don't you let the facts speak themeselves? Till now, the facts are speaking the other way. Well, you mentioned siye and the likes. These people are much more ethnically charged than even the Melese junta. I have never ever encountered a sincere opposition against melese. from the "golden" races. You can see the level of their opposition from Amare Aregawi and the Dejen radio's recent acts.
All Ethiopians, I am not saying that we have to exclude or or ...these "golden" races. All I am saying is that on our road in the struggle for democracy, they are in the tyrant's side most of them, and we should try to engage them to be on our side. If not, we have to defeat them.You elites-don't ever try to fool us claiming "TPLF"is full of Eritreans and that it doeasn't represent ye Tigray People. No, no, this contradicts the reality, and you got to convince us through facts.
Ethiopian people, it is more than ever clear that the TPLF junta is kidding on us. As I have said it , we can't afford to loose these national treasures who haapened to appear once in the history of Ethiopa. We got to embrace AFD and make it workout our own way. Well, Shabia, we already cut our loss as regards the province of Eritrea, and this being the fact, if they tried to extend their assistance, we shall make use of it and give an end to the agony of the Ethiopian people.
It is baffeling to read Tplf foot soldiers telling us what Weyane doing in Ethiopia is on behalf of Eritrea not Tigray. If so why don't the rank and file in the Tplf revolt on the leadership? I don't have anything against thier support to the Tplf but they should spare us from the sickening reason to fool us once again. It is a fact that most of them support Tplf's ideology and any problem between them is just on tribal issues not on ideology. There is a saying that "ethnic politics once you start it, it will have its own life and there is no way to stop it". The difference in the Tplf is just a clan and tribal difference among them like what we are witnessing in Somalia. Offcourse they may have difference on policy issues towards Shabia ( based on tribe and clan), but when it comes to Ethiopia (which matters most to us) they are all the same.
We are just tired of hearing AKAKI ZERAF from Derg remnants/CUD.BE PRACTICAL.DON`T TALK TOO MUCH RUBBISH.

Application is the most important aspect of learning-without it learning is vain. Much,if not all, of application has also to do with PROBLEM SOLVING.No one dis- agree that Ethiopia has lack of educated man power.Yet,no matter how hard we have tried, we have to admit the fact that we have not progressed.So much so that, the strategy we adapt is far removed from the objective reality of the poletical condition,we are not only unprepared ,yet fail to materilize on the wind fall.This country has allways been rescued by the ordinary citizens who know nothing about leadership theory but posses great faith in the LIVING GOD ,and great for their country.They never wait around waisting their time for the school men to give direction.This over confidence and over emphasis on the learnd men is the latest phenomena. It has thaught us how to subistitue these as solution to our problems:transfer responsiblity to the next generation,and rationalize our problems inestead of solving them now.I have a news for you,Melese will allways do what he wanted to do unless he is forcefully and violently obliged to stop.Are you outraged,confused,bewilderd about the desecration of our foundations ,then ,rise up.Is there not a cause? In my view Melese will not rleas this ETHIOPIANS.Those who have expected he will-wish well.At the end of the daythe one's who will be disappointed are only those who had a mis-placed expectations all along.If you want to do something about it there is only one remedy to it go back:reconsider,revise.and reconstruct your assumptions all over again.Use some query employ this to your particular case considering your assumptions,work out the drill through the clues answering every quistion in its entirety.This will lead you to some level of clarity.From this ground,all will be in clear view for you to see on what strategy you ought to adapt.If yopu deceided to go this way you willbe fully tuened with the current poletical ready to do some oxploites.TTE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN OF ETHIOPIA STANDE UP WHERE EVER YOU ARE NO REST UNTIL THE DESECRATED FOUNDATION OF ETHIOPIA IS RAISED.
You who have posted as anonymous -the third from bottom ,and left a signature as Thomas.H. Stop babbeling in this forum.You sound like you just wake up from your delusinal state when you say "be realistic." You are telling us toleave our fight so that you can have your way.Time is up for you ,and "wenbedew melese ,and his tools."ALL ETHIOPIANS including Tigriens ,the most CONSCIENTIOUS among them, is about tosay "AGAZI YE MARIAM TELAT."This is what you can resonably expect from the general public.You can face the truth or you can persist in your delusinal state.We are up to bring tahis regiem down by forceFrom taahis pointa we are not limited to a single method-we adapt all means. STAY OUT OF THIS FORUM! Dont never undermine the will of ETHIOPIANS .The people are on the march the junta and its catspaws are on the run!
VICTORY to MAMA ETHIOPIA1 and her OPRESSD PEOPLE.
SHAME AND IMFAMY TO THE TREACHEROUS VILLAIN AND HIS COHORTS!
I LIKE THE FIRST COMMENT FOR THE PERSON HAS CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF TPLF and AGAZI FORCES. The rest of the commentators are neither clear as to what should be done nor think clearly to understand what TPLF is all about. Good for you whoever you are, please take my encouragement and try to relate your knowledge to other PRO-ETHIOPIAN websites.
Going to my personal comment on the matter. I knew Meles was going to postpone the verdict once again, he has made his judgement in his dinning room long time ago, like say 2-years ago in May 2005. It was not clear at that time who was going to be imprisoned and who was going to be killed. Now he is having doubts as to killing the truelly ellected Ethiopian leaders. People close to him are telling him his decision may be wrong. This time around his mistake cannot be corrected. As to one of the judge being sick is a ploy, you will hear that the judge is sick again and in a month time he will die then the whole court will be adjourned for indefitly. Then Ethiopian 2nd Millennium will be celebrated at the expense of our leaders. people are going to go there and dance in the name of having a good time.
Its just Meles is having a psychological game playing session. He might even release them just to calm the people as the 2nd Millennium approaches so all Ethiopians would forget the torture and suffering of their leaders.
Let us stopp hoping for weyane to be human.....there is no hope, they are animals...ye dur arawitoch ...the faster we accept that there is nothing for us to expect from them...the faster we will take care of these illegitimate sons of fascists italia>>>>...Let freedom ring...
Hi All,
There is no need to rush for verdict.This is what they call it SLOW DEATH.This is just the first step of slow death.The verdict is already known because the crime committed by CUD official is VERY VERY VERY SERIOUS.So,I expect the court will forgive these criminals like the Derg officials who were forgiven,but they will be PERMANENT RESIDENTS OF KALITI.So,it is my pleasure to congratulate all peaceloving Ethiopians TO USE THIS OPPORTUNITY and reconcile.I hope from now on no animosity among us.The CHAPTER is CLOSED.
Yours Gelaw and Thomas
Woyane beast above,
You will not see that day.
Your ded corpse will be set
on fire like your agazi brother
in Mogadishu

HAY NO NEED TO KILL AMHARA BECOUSE THEY ARE ALREADY DEAD ALL THEY HAVE LEFT IS THEIR MOUTH AND THAT IS OK FOR NOW FOR THOSE IN PRISON I WISH THEM FUCKING EASTERN SLOW DEATH TO ALL CUD AND NEFTEGA, OLF SHABIA LONG LIVE TPLF
wondim thomas
