On Monday, February 7, Ethiopians in Washington DC will shut down the Woyanne regime- occupied Ethiopian embassy starting at 8:30 in the morning to bring attention to the people of Ethiopia’s demand for an end to Meles Zenawi’s dictatorship.
Similar activities are being planned by Ethiopian civic and political groups around the world. More updates later.
In Ethiopia, the capital city Addis Ababa, where African leaders thieves are currently holding a conference, is tense as tens of thousands of troops patrol the streets. Although there is a news blackout of the uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia, the people of Ethiopia are getting information from various sources and are closely watching developments.
With all the repressive measures the Meles regime has been taking to prevent an uprising, many of the regime’s officials know that their time is running out and they have taken their family members out of the country.
The people of Ethiopia need to also start preparing themselves. Ethiopians in the Diaspora have the responsibility to advise their families back home to start preparations. Ethiopian Review recommends the following:
1. Take your money out of banks so that your family will not be stranded without money in the event that the uprising forces the banks to be closed for a long duration. Woyanne is looting the banks, so by the time they are ousted, some of the banks may not exist any more.
2. Stock up on food, drinking water and other basic supplies that could last you several weeks.
3. Identify and expose Woyanne spies who are assigned to neighborhoods. Send their names and photos to Ethiopian Review and other media. They will be the ones who would lead Meles Zenawi’s death squads to the door steps of protest organizers and opposition leaders.
4. Reach out to members of the armed forces and educate them about their duty, which is to the people and not the dictator.
Ethiopian Review is closely monitoring developments in Ethiopia and will update it readers on a regular basis.

I see the wind blowing south from Egypt. The Weyane thugs should get ready to go back to their caves; that is if they make it out alive.
Elias, I suggested the idea of exposing these woyanne vilager spies even before the idea of THE BIGGEST UPRISING IN ETHIOPIAN HISTORY came to view. Do one thing, prepare a spread sheet format that includes columns showing regions and Kebeles and Woredas when it comes to bigger cities, like Addis Ababa, Bahar Dar, Dire dawa, Nekemt, Ambo, Nazret, Awasa, Harar etc and a larger column for people clearly describe the person’s details and what he /she did. I have my own friends whom I kept myself far from whom if I list will know who did it but with the format I suggested ,It is a matter of plugging their names where they live. That makes things easies for people to freely come foreward and give names.
It is time for Ethiopians to stand up and get rid of the tplf racist and criminal members once and for all as the freedom lovers in diaspora should send enough money for family members to get them prepared for the upcoming ethiopian revolution against the tplf as we are supposed to help and support any civic and political groups in diaspora to get organized and to make history in ethiopia.
get up stand up for your rights….
we need to act this is what we need all over the world…
I seconded #2. Good suggestion.
wey gud
I have a dream,that one day every valley shall be exalted,and every hill and mountain shall be made low,the rough places will be made plain,and the crooked places will be made straight; and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh see it together…..free at last,free at last ! Thank God almighty we are free at last. Dr.King …..yes, we have to believe first before it could happen. Elias,truly you come One in a million.you are in my prayers every day because no one can do what you do for our country .may god bless you
Rise up! Rise up! Be the voice for the voiceless Ethiopians, especially, for the innocent Ethiopians who are being tortured and rotting in woyane prison! I hope thousands Ethiopians show up.
Make the Woyane looters pee on their pants for all the despicable crimes they have committed on Ethiopia and Ethiopians for the last twenty years. I hope and pray that they will never have peace for the rest of their lives where every they go. Let thugs know that we will never forget the lootings, the tortures and the killings they have committed on our people and our countries. Let the message be heard that Meles, his wife and his cronies are the worst inhumane creatures Ethiopians have ever seen, even compare to the other butcher Mengestu. The shameful, greedy, ugly monkey must pay back all the money he has stolen, and be punished severely for all the unspeakable crimes he has committed on our country and our people. May Meles, his wife and his criminal friends burn in hell! Let us all pray everyday to see the end of the killer machine Meles and his cronies, and God to bring justice to all Meles’s victims parents and their immediate families.
Helo Ethio-black lions, i believed the Tunisians and Egyptions grievances is what we almost did through election in Addis Ababa 2005. However, heroism is our dignity that we heritage from our ancestors. With it, we will finalized woyane’s barbaric administration out from ethiopia.
Yes, we ethiopians suffered a lot,Human loss,economics, politicis and social devestaing, even our fertile land is on sale,while we are hungry, and so many problems but we did not organized enough to get ride of this maflia group woyane.
Let us organize, teach the youth through out the country and have strong committed real Ethiopian patriotic political organization to lead and to protect our people and country by making good relation with the Ethiopian army.
please let us descuss this in intectual manner before we advocate to starte the uprising at home.
let us mobilize the educated people,the experienced politian etc. to do something for our beloved country, for it’s remarkeable past and future history and for our children and grandchildren.
let us think better and be the people of our generation
let us organied first and do the right that last forever.
thanks to all
LET’S RISE BUT LET’S DO IT WISELY.
MOT LEWYANE AND GELEWOCHU
Let us call all Ethiopians (Civil Servants, High school & College students, the unemployed, etc.,) who live in the big cities (Addis Ababa, Bahar Dar, Dire Dawa, Nekempt, Ambo, Nazret, Awasa, Harar, Debre Zeit, Dessie, Gonder, etc.,)do the same peacefull demonstrations On Monday February 7, 2011 in harmony with the diaspora’s demonstrations. Let’s unite at least for one day and tell the Meles regim enough is enough. Victory to the masses!!!
Tazabi! Thank you! you great Ethiopian the work you do tirelessly for your great country Ethiopia and its people to free from the tyrant Meles Zenawi and his thugs. I want to send a message to the police and defense forces. You Ethiopian defense and police forces, you have to learn from the Egyptian army. The Egyptian army doesn’t harm the millions of his country protesters to defend the power of the dictator Mubarek, instead he supports the Egyptian people to protest for their right, freedom and justice. So, this is a good history for the Egyptian people as well as for the military forces for the coming generation. There fore,in case of our Ethiopian forces I have the knowledge that you understands what the Weyane dictators are doing against you, Ethiopia, and Ethiopians, so are you ready to side with your people to rise up against the dictator Meles? I have full confidence you will sided with your people.And I understand his thug generals of Adwa such as Samora, wedi medhin, Seare, and other top generals may not accept your sidness with the people. They are few in number but you are too many. You can make them under your control systematically if you have a courage and interest and let go back to the 1966 Ethiopian revolution and try to get some historical information how the Ethiopian millitary at that time organize himself against the Haileselassie top generals to make them under his control.
LET’S RISE BUT LET’S DO IT WISELY.
Melese is the least of our worries, he can not even defend himself from Azeb Golla, it goes the same for the rest of his clique…the real force that enabled them to commite such inhuman deeds are the dogs they use at their will…
Let us start naming, documenting, and letting them and their family members know..as they will be paying dearly very soon for being used willingly by animals like melese
They are everywhere..right from our edirs, ekubs, kebeles, places where we work,embassies, among the diaspora,…
If we can do this, the socalled strongman will find himself helpless in notime..
Please let us do this
Elias,
keep up the good job. it is time now to stand together to free Ethiopia from woyannes
It is time to act, please don’t let this moment pass us. It is time for tyranny and evil deed by leaders to end around the world. Dictatorship and ethnic favoritism should be a thing of a past. People of Ethiopia inside the country and around the world, lets hold hand together and do this in a right way. It is obvious the woyane police and military will act brutally, there will be a lot of losses, but trust me it will worth the scarifies. We shouldn’t let these people rob that country to her knee any more. Ethiopian review, please use your power in cooperation with other Ethiopian web sites to spread the word.
The clock is ticking;the bell of victory is ringing;people are rising up.Mubarak is dull and lauzy because he did not get it;he did not get it!
Whether he likes it or not;love it hate it;accept it or reject it,he shall be driven out of the lives of egyptians.
So also,Meles Zinawi will definitely be remved from the lives of Ethiopians whether he like it or not,Period and that is it.
Yes! Tazabi, although all weyane army top rank officers and commanders are from specific area, I hope they are inspired to sided with their innocence ethiopians and that what’s they have been waiting for. We talk about air force, air defence,air born,ground force,and all police forces.
Either you are a fool or you have no idea how the bank system works? If everybody went to the bank to withdraw money at the same time, nobody will get it. The bank will be bankrupt and the system will fail. The banks do not keep everybody’s money. They keep a small portion and lend the remaining. So, why would anybody heed your ridiculous advice to lose the fruit of their work?
Elias,we must Thank you the work you do for Emeye Ethiopia. It is time to organised and show our support, please any support let the Ethiopian knows for immidate action.
God Bless!!
LET’S RISE BUT LET’S DO IT WISELY.
Ethiopia will Prevail!!
Get up and stand up !
Tenes Enenesa Yagere Anbesa !!
The time has come to mobilize urge Ethiopians to prepare to rise in protest against the regime. Ethiopians at home need to make every effort to get in touch to their country men and discuss how to stage the protest. Every details of it need to be worked out, all the means of communication and the social network needs to be put in place and ready to be used.
Ethiopians abroad we need to alert the grim fact to the world community, as it have been pointed out by some, the weyane army is an army made up of one ethnic army commanded by the same and will not hesitate to murder Ethiopians at the order of its leader. We need to warn and publicize about this grave danger ahead of time.
Demonstration, similar to the upcoming one, need to be staged in Europe and else where continually. Together abroad and at home let us use the current occasion to oppose the tyrannical rule imposed upon our people. There should not be any sort of differences of opinions about to call the apprising save only about the details of it. What ever weyane does during and after the protest depending upon the measure it takes, there ought to be an ongoing protest demanding its ouster. This is not likely momentary action; it ought to be continual exposure of harmful government policies.
I like the 3rd and 4th points. They are critical.
Yes, wogenoch, you have the spirit and the courage and also the patience to wait for so long chicks up and standing tall knowing well that this day will sooner or later will arrive. It is around the corner! Let us stick together and let us as wise as Ethiopians have always been knowing our steps ahead of time because what matters now is not to get rid of Meles and cohorts, but how to carry ourselves through the changes we are going to make in the years to come. Let us focus both on how we handle the current and the immediate tasks that we will take over. God bless Ethiopia and its Children every where on the planet!
The time has finally arrived! We are ready to take the criminal thugs out!
Continuing from what Ethiopie above said,
ER and any internet and Google saavy should use the Google and other advanced sites to study all areas in Ethiopia using the Google satelite on Google maps, it shows every detail of Kebeles and regions, even people. We can broadcast every killing, human right abuse, even details of who lives where from the Google satelite. We can pay the computer wizards to even do further investigation on the streets of Ethiopia and what is going on. We can then give this info to main Tv broadcasting system such as CNN, BBC, etc.
Eritrean,
Eritreans here never mention one word regarding their country and their own dictator but tell ER and Elias how Weyane should be toppled. What does that mean? Eritreans and Shaebia are closely watching the coming turmoil to once again take advantage of Ethiopia. Be ware Ethiopians. Any Eritrean who doesn’t mention his own country and meddling in Ethiopia is for their own good.
Dear OLF,
In 2005, when millions came out marching against Meles, you had an army and was requested to help the Ethiopian people against the Weyane thugs fake Agazi. Once again like your party 40 something years, you chose not to interfere indirectly supporting Weyane thugs kill 200 people. I am sure, out of 200 there were also Oromos being killed, there are millions imprioned, tortchured, but you prefered Weyane thugs to kill because of your paranoia once again the seemingly “amara” will take over the country. Our people (Oromos) were fighting along with the rest of Ethiopia against Weyane and it is a shame you supported the killing of your own people! By keeping silent. Let us see if you will stand with the majority of people against Weyane Junta or you maybe standing against Shaebia against the Ethiopian people. Once again you will be standing watching… the time will come when Ethiopians will get rid of Weyane thugs, will you cry then to claim your power by seemingly you are standing for “Oromos only”? We will watch you. The power belongs to only those whose blood is being sacrificed throughout the country not to the spectators sitting in the West, East, Asmara, etc..
So it is a good thing to check sites of Shaeiba and OLF what their intentions are as they are united against Ethiopia (excluing Weyane) as this regime change is spreading all over Arab nations. Let us beware of while we are ousting the evil dictator, be ware of Shaebia and OLF.
It is possible that Meles, Shaebia and OLF are coordinating in case any rising up occurs in fact Weyane’s life could be spared by OLF, and Shaebia for Meles to quietly leave the country and with the help of Shaebia, OLF and another TPLF once again take over the country and keeping the same pro ethnic status quo only this time power may increase to the South, rightly so. I support Oromo’s power this time in a democratic Ethiopia.
Long live Ethiopia!
The greatest danger for Ethiopians as we rise up against the evil Meles is: the military who are 100% loyal to Meles and Tigray so unlike Egypt, they will aim hungrily towards the rest of Ethiopians particularly to non-Tigrayans. If we convince the military to protect Ethiopians then there would be no problem. You see, the military have been enriched and have done well under Meles so they will say why they should help Ethiopians that will bring them nothing. Also the other danger could come from Shaebia and OLF.
Go for it! But make sure you be inclusive!
I don’t think even that the meles loyality of an estimated half million military will stand against the fury of eighty million ethiopians.If we took out the recruits from other ethnicities the tigre clan in the millitary might not exceed two hundred thousund or so who would not hesität to fight against the eth. people to the last, what is important is to make clear to those soldiers how systematicall they are gaurding the oppressive regime of TPLF which has as its aim to bring under its colonial rule all ethnic groups. obviosly all tigreans in and around the world who support the Meles clan and the TPLF ideology started to believe in the superiority of the tigre ethnicity over all the rest. To break down such such power every means is legitim,since this regim did not hesitate to kill ethiopians resisting peacefully, it would not be unreasonable if every citizen gets armed with sword(gorade)when they come out to protest.Because Meles is not Jesus and the only means that can resist his power is apparenly a counter-power. That the people of ethiopia are heroes by nature is known all over from their history, but this heroism, had been only to defend themselve from a foreign power.Therefore foreign governments always feared this people until lately, the TPLF came to power, which with their support became heavily armed to intimediate and subdue their heroism so that they can come to ethiopia as investors and landlords whereas ethiopians flee from their belaved country. We need to re-iniciate this innate trait of ethiopians and this the right time to do so, because courage comes from real threat to one’s existence, and now is obviously life threatening sitaution in ethiopia.
