It is just drinking session for African killers and looters. It is better to use the money to buy bread to their hungry people.

Please watch the langueges you use. Sure the African leaders aren’t doing their job, but how about you? where is your professional courtesy? ethics of journalism?? It is disrespectful to call leaders “thieves”, which you have no proof off. Corrupted, yes! Always think what kind of message you are sending and what kind of changes/results you anticipate from it! It is not wise to act in the moment of adrenaline rush or great emotion without thinking clearly about the consequence of our message.
Legite ones!,one of them evicted me from my home!.
Dear Serkalem, You are defending the one who suck their people and make their own citizen living hell and make their own citizen life miserable. What do you want to call them gives us name (BTW there are a few should not be called names) the rest there are killer, murderer and of course they are thieve. If you call the street pickpocket thieve why not them? Actually the pickpocket did not heart the whole nation and comparing the local thief this chimpanzees (btw I am not talking about their look I am talking their deed) are not deserve this common name, Actually whoever who wrote he or she are very nice and very generous for these guys, you know what I call them a group of gorillas within expansive suit, gorillas without any sole and moral. Please my friend they have a million dollar and the whole country military to defend them they don’t need other cyber defender like you if I were you I will spent some times and tell these guys to do something good to their people, to fight corruption, to fight hanger, to fight the for the power of role of law… let us stop worry about protocol and political correctness while our people die because of their corrupt behavior…please don’t call or tell me I should call them chimpanzees… you know my friend African die/killed in the hand of African leaders more than African die in the colonization time … peace
Thanks Elias, I agree with Biyya that you have said it already. However I completely disagree with Sirkalem. It is a joke to say there is professionalism in journalism nowadays. I is all politics, come on. Elias had been very modest to call this gangs thieves. I will add gangsters, liars, sold out politicians who do not care about their people and country. People who have surrendered to the west for their personal needs.
Cool
Weyane Genocide against Ethio-Somalis will not be discussed, Kenya’s refusal to hand in the criminals who organized post election massacre will not be discussed, Somalia’s on going turmoil will not be discussed, Uganda’s massacre of the Northern Uganadan (LRA) will not be discussed. The border demarcation between Tigrai and Eritrea will not be discussed.
Instead, the Eritrean government will be discussed. The Djibouti-Eritrea war will be discussed, the new Madagascar government will be discussed, the new Guinea-Bisau will be discussed.
The attendies include Kofi Annan, Ban ki-Moon, Robert Zoellick (the member of IRI) Jendayi Frazer, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush, Tony Blair and Bill Clinton are going to attend. I forgot, Adolph Hitler will come to the meeting to re-carve Africa according to his plan, and Osam Bin Laden will be the key note speaker.
What a marvelous idea.
YES, THEY ARE LOOTERS AND KILLERS. THEY LOOTED AFRICAN MONEY AND KILLED PEOPLE OF AFRICA SO YOUR ( ELIAS) SAYING IS CORRECT. THEY ARE NOT ELECTED BY THEIR PEOPLE AND AND COME TO POWER WITH NO ELECTION!!!
Thank you Serkalem for your comment, maybe you have taught a couple of people here.
Woyane is hampering the IT growth in Ethiopia through its ETC monopoly. These stupid moron monkeys gather to talk about one of the most advanced technology which they know nothing about.
Elias Please remove the Editor’s note and change the title. Do you know that your website is visited not only by Ethiopians and Eritreans but also by some prominent African Writers, Critics, etc?
I am not saying that some African leaders are not corrupt, dictators, killers, …but just as there are bad leaders in Africa there are leaders who paid lots of sacrifice for just causes, that of defending their countries from Imperialist agressors whose only interest is to use Africa as a source of raw materials.
By using the name Ethiopia in your website, you are painting a bad image about Ethiopia and its people (including you) by using such types of wrong titles
Serkalem, your criticism of Elias is not deserving. Even if a couple of them are not to be found thieves, they should have distance themselves from dining and wining with known dictators, killers and thieves like Meles. Meles sees kindness as weakness and he admires only people like him who have no heart, and I believe all of them he invited must be thieves just like himself. Meles hates people like Human Rights Workers enough to kick them out of Ethiopia.
Meles is in kissing up mode and in damage control to make up for what he did recently in Norway.
Dear editor
I like Ethiopian review because of up to date and reliable news that you bring to us. however i am very disappointed by the way you generalize things. this news implicate that all African leaders are thieves. All of the world know that Ghana is a democratic symbol. this news is embarrassing for Ethiopian review.If it is possible edit it or try to improve it
hope we see improvement
Of course, majority of African leaders, if we call them leaders, they are looters, killers, greedy, hyena, blood-suckers, vampires, etc.
Fekadu If you really think that Ghana is a democratic nation, it sholud either tell the dictator in Minelik Palace to respect human right in Ethiopia and release our political prisnors like Birtukan MedeQsa or distance it self from the party arranged by the tyran.
If we take Ghana our lovely democratic ffriend:
“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” Dr MLK.
Weyane is endeed our Enemy
I have no good thing to say about those killers. They are killing Africa more than the colonizers period. The only honest president we have is President Isayas of Eritrea. We need to clone him for every country in Africa. That is the only way we will have peace and prosperity in Africa.
If you watch those murderers they look like they are in Addis for grand beauty pageant competition, which four thousand of them wouldn’t even make one beauty. Especially, the midget of arat kilo Meles is the worst one.
Ethiopian#13,
Elias Kifle should not change the editor’s note because it tells the truth as it is: they are looters, murderers, swindlers, lairs, adulterers, traitors, slaves of the West, and enemies of their own people. Every day, they practice nepotism, exploitation, and extortion, and they cannot run their government free of those devilish and illegal activities. Can you give me any country in Africa that is satisfied by the good leadership of its president, by the economic prosperity of its people, and by the overall medical care of its citizens?
It is financed by the west, and in exchange it takes its orders from the west. It doesn’t represent Africa or the African people and has become a tool of neo colonialism.
Dear Tezebet, I totally understand where you are coming from. What I am saying was we really have to watch out for what’s coming while fighting this corrupted people. If we all believed we have to get rid off meles, we also have to think who is coming next. This is what I meant by adrenaline rush. Some people write stuff to get emotional enough, the only thing we believe in becomes removing this juntas from power. In the mean time, there is another dictator waiting to take his place. Does this remind you of something? oh yeah, people were very frustrated with derg, but had they thought about who is coming we wouldn’t be in this mess!
Serkalem,
How do you defend African blood suckers, despots and terrorists?.African leaders except few are corrupts,scrounges and blood-sucking dictators. So, Elias called them in their right name.Thanx Elias
All African Leaders except Issayas Afwerki are looters. I agree with Ilias, he can first handly witness how President Afwerki lead his simple life.
Sirkalem, Your point is well taken. Whoever thought one could be worse than Mengesu! As you know, it was the super power of the world that helped the non-democratically elected ugly monkey Meles to rule Ethiopia. US should have given dictator Meles a time limit till Ethiopians had a chance to elect their own leader before corruption got a hold of Ethiopia. US put Meles in the palace, US should take the armed and dangerous Meles out of palace.
Dear sirkalem, hope things are ok in you side…
I hear you but my friend most African wins their independent from the western domination more than have a centuries ago… except a few countries the rest they doing worst than where they were under white domination. This is not because the people of Africa have less minds then the rest of the world or because they are lazy, Africa is where it is because of the leader’s weakness…I am not emotional person by nature, but when it comes to tell how I feel I am very blunt and I put it the way it is. I never worry to be politically correctness, because I am not .politician or running for any kind office. I am mad when I see how Africa’s live, feel sorry we as African become laughing object for the rest of the world, I am mad seen out children on every western TV begging and eating things from dirt, if this guys doesn’t bother them and not doing anything to their people what name you want to give them? …
What don’t you see out country, hope even in you family how many of the people feed themselves or their family 3 times a day?
Few years back I read article (not sure where) it is about South Korea economy and Ethiopian economy, at the beginning of the century these two countries had the same GDP and their economy situation was not that much deferent. Look my friend where they are now and where we are… in all aspect economy, social justice and technology…the other thing you worry is who is coming after the one we have, I tell you with certainty for Ethiopia no other worst thing can happened than what happened to that country the last 30 years… particularly the last 19 years when it comes of the unity and existence of my country…
Good day Dear!!!
Read all comments, I can’t help but notice, beyond the very vivid role of the leaders, we are also responsible for the image of the continent at large and our beloved country in particular.
How many of us ready to do what it takes to upgrade the country, even if it requires death.
I have a very respected feeling for all the political parties [be it the ruling or the opposition].
Look to the comments about president Isayas…see what I am implying is whatever is the internal problem and difficulty it has only be solved by participating in the problem…not roaring now and then
LONG LIVE ETHIOPIA
