Not sure what to make out of this gibberish (read here: http://borumeda.blogspot.com/2013/07/normal-0-false-false-false-en-us-x-none.html) from a certain Bewketu Seyoum writing about the ongoing Oromo and Southern cultural revolution; each of his sentence is constructed to deliberately use the rarest Amharic word/phrase possible (even those words used only during ESLCE Amharic exams) – all the energy is wasted to make the sentences flowery, but their meanings remain meaningless. Ya-Qaalaat Daadaataa only. His conclusion is that the ongoing cultural revolution is a sign of backward and stagnant mentality. Not sure why he wasted all these words and phrases, instead of just saying that in point-blank.

Incidents involving Ethiopians highly exaggerated, say police

| Areb News
The deadly incidents involving Ethiopian maids are exaggerated, resulting in false accusations and unnecessary panic among Saudi employers, law enforcement officials say.
The recent deaths of children allegedly at the hands of Ethiopian housemaids have created a furor among Saudis on Facebook and Twitter, but Jeddah police caution that the fear among Saudis is disproportionate to the actual crimes committed.
“Actually it is still on a very limited scale,” Jeddah police spokesman Nawwaf Al-Bouq told Arab News. Al-Bouq said that judging from the comments seen on social media networks, one would think that this is a very wide phenomenon.

ADDIS ABABA — It has been almost one year since Hailemariam Desalegn came to power in Ethiopia, following the death of his predecessor Meles Zenawi. Despite recent demonstrations and a cabinet shuffle, little seems to have changed in the East African country.
After weeks of speculation, Prime Minister Meles Zenawi's death was announced last year, on the morning of August 21st. The passing of the longtime ruler made way for his deputy Hailemariam Desalegn, to lead the second most populous nation on the African continent.

The Elephant in the Room: The Ethiopian Empire State and the Oromo National Struggle for Liberation
July 28, 2013 | By Bakalcho Barii*
The Ethiopian Empire state is on the verge of collapse like other empires in history. The empire rulers can no more hide the Oromo struggle for liberation under the guise of religion and territorial integrity. The Oromo question is the Elephant in the room for the current Ethiopian rulers and its foreign backers, and any attempt to delay the inevitable would be not a wise thing to do before the people of the south and the Oromo’s take things in their own hand to stop the killings in their own backyards. Therefore, the immediate and urgent task for the Oromos and the southern nations is to intensify their struggle and realize the total victory that is within reach for the total emancipation of their people.
