Do the people of Ethiopia need more tanks?

Ethiopia’s khat-addicted, bleached skin Yemeni dictator Meles Zenawi has ordered 200 tanks from Ukraine at the cost of USD$100 million, according to a Ukraine newspaper (read here).

Who are the tanks going to protect? The answer is obvious. They are being purchased to protect Meles and his vampire Woyanne junta from the people of Ethiopia.

When millions of children in Ethiopia have nothing to eat, and some eat out of trash dumps, for the ruling party to spend $100 million on military tanks is an act of atrocious crime.

Do these children need tanks or food?

  1. WELL,
    THEY STILL SAY WOYANE ECONOMY IS GROWING BY 11%. THE ONLY COUNTRY ON PLANET EARTH WITH SUCCESSIVE ECONOMIC GROUTH AND BEGING FOR FOOD IS THE WOYANE ETHIOPIA. NO WONDER THEIR STATICIANS ARE WOYANE DEDEBIT TRAINED PROFESSORS WHO ARE MASTERED ON NOTHING BUT LIE. THEY WILL LIE ON YOUR FACE THAT THERE IS NO ONE HUNGRY IN ETHIOPIA TODAY. THESES WOYANE GANGS (I.E MELESS AND ASSOCIATES) ARE BEYOUND BELIEVE. WHAT WILL AZEB/MELES/BEREKET/MESFIN WILL SAY? OF COURSE NOTHING BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO BUSY KILLING AND STEALING SO THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT HAS HAPPENED. ANY ONE WHO DARE TO TELL THEM WHAT JUST CAME OUT ON THE NEWS/BBC, WILL RISK HIS LIFE. AMAIZING!

  2. Good Stuff !

    Stupid Americans will pay-off the balance !

    Flying soon to Addis Ababa, Hillary will dine and wine with smart WEYANE she will sign the check stick it into the pocket of Meles Zenawi’s best soldier General Samora Yonus.

    Observing the situation,I can not see how the “face book revolution” will be materialized in the foreseeable future.

    Miskin Opposition.

  3. This new development is obvious to crush the opposition and start war with Eritrea by massing unlimited weapons Eventually they will be take over these tanks by mighty shabia. Winning is through inspirational and moral NOT by purchasing unmanned plane and countless tanks.

  4. All those ‘geniuses’ who jumped to point out the editor’s typographical errors would be well advised to focus on their own punctuations and grammatical errors instead.

    I wonder if they think the editor’s spelling errors are more important than the topic/issue itself!

  5. We all do spelling mistakes.After all, it is not our netive luanguge. At any rate, it is rumered that the Aiga web adminstrator is said to be leaving US soon to Tigray (a state within a state in ethiopia)to asume chief of staf of the tigray army also known as ethiopian defence forces and prepared war game plan aganist the unknown.

    According the report, the type of tanks choice was made by the aiga web administrators. Not by meles of the unkwon orgin.

  6. Elias
    How much does Essaya aka the butcher, pays you to insult Ethiopia’s greatest leader, I am sorry Africa’s?
    I am sure your master the Bucher, is very happy that you are Insulting Prime Minister Meles Zenawi of Ethiopia.
    Ethiopia is being modernized that include its Military hard ware. Don’t panic these are just Tanks(not “thanks”), Insha’allah we will buy drones and Scud mis…
    BTW for Essayas the old good (Minisher) is good enough.
    about your Beqa, it was materialized by Beqa to your unfounded ignorant accusations.

  7. Dear Elias,

    You are getting worthless day to day. An eighty Milliion People with tough neibour need to be stronger militarly. Opposing Woyanie is something else, wishing Ethiopian military to be without Tank is your own haterate of Ethiopia. Additionally, posting our shame of the 1977 or whatever year famine pictures one million times in your website shows how much you would celebrate when Ethipians become like that again.
    The wonderful thing is Your kind of politics will never succeed. I hate woyanie, but the way today’s opposition like you is worst. No real oppostion who fight the right way. So, we dont have to support trash and midless Egyptians like you uust because we hate woyanie.

    One way the other, Long live Ethiopia-a statement you hate the most.

    May God show us the death of you and Woyanie!!! Amen!!!

  8. Meles abu Semhal bin Zenawi al Tigray should nurse his own skin illness and many other poor Ethiopians instead of buying hundreds of tanks.

    Weyane, the war monger has no respect whatsoever for the Ethiopian people’s lives. This diseased leader should be stopped.

  9. It seems the woyanne ministry of foreign affairs is busy with its cadres an attack on Elias because of the spelling error as they have nothing big in their box other than decipt lies crime looting that matters for the Ethiopian peoples or the world in general.

    I wonder if they think the editor’s spelling errors are more important than the topic/issue itself!

    Having said that the woyanne crime minister is long un masked that he does not have no interest of the country and its peoples except loosing his position that he gets by the blessing of C.I.A and the U.K
    govt and tolerate and accepts his decipt and lies as long as it moves on the direction of their national interest and it should not surprise no Ethiopian if she (Hillary) gives him the check for his terrorising act where he himself is planting a terrorist group to justify his lies
    and in all this theatrical floors we the Ethiopian peoples should spent a second hoping that they will the support our struggle if they
    dont see a strong challenge or frredom fighter to topple the crime gang that the nation has never seen in its 3000+ years history

    Ethiopia will preavail with its brave sons and daughters
    Beka means Beka time for action

  10. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN ETHIOPIA? A MONTH AGO, ALL WOYANE TAGS CAME TO WESTERN COUNTRIES, TO ASK MONEY FOR CONSTRUCTION OF ‘TEHADSO ABAY DAM’
    A VERY LITTELE NAIVE PEOPLE GAVE SOME MONEY, AND THEY ALSO FORCED PEOPLE INSIDE ETHIOPIA TO BUY BONDS, AND NOW WITH THE MONEY, THEY ARE BUYING TANKS?
    THEY ARE LIERS,LIERS, LIERS…, IF THEY ARE REALLY SERIOUSE ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE DAM, THEY SHOULD KEEP ANY PENNY THEY GET, EVEN FROM HAND-OUTS. PEOPLE OPEN YOUR EYES AND PROTECT YOUR MONEY.

    MEKURIA.

  11. to degaga, bogida and hawi
    All of you are no thing. you are stupids, don’t mess with shabiya. shaebiya is your master.
    God bless the strong and brave shabiya.

  12. Kikikikiki…

    It is amazing how all of these brainless idiot Wayane cadres have only the tiniest brain of their own other than repeating what one of their brainless parrots have mentioned about a spelling error as if we are in a kindergarten English language club. For us adults the meanings are in the contents and NOT in the spellings being made by computer typing errors which all of us make down the line.

    And then again, let the frightened Wayane cadres running out of gas, substances and support from the Ethiopian people keep kicking their fat bottoms with their hind legs and play fancy but empty acrobats just like the starving and wretched North Koreans every now and then demonstrating mirculous fancy parades on command by the ruler for life and aimed at the international media through whome food and livelyhood begging and complete food dependece have become a shameful routine for life.

    What a world gone mad.

    Ethiopians need to get to the bottom of things and in unity within diversity liberate the good country from tyranny and exploitation. Bickering and petty chitchatting within the same old boxes will only lead to more and more slavery and wretchedness.

  13. #26. ahsagariw,

    those who purchase bond and promise to donate weyane are end up to buy tanks ,,,,what a shame !!!!!!!!!!!” you wrote. :)

    You stated correct. It is not only that the money of those bond buyers end up purchasing tanks but that the tanks will also slowly but surely will end up killing all of those bond buyers while protecting the land grabbers and the few to Wayane elite conspiratorial thieves who are lying sky high and stealing political, economic, natural resources as well as financial wealth from any one just like the American master robber Bernard Madoff who became mullti billionaire by lying and cheating any one and every one including his nearest relatives, colleagues, the wretched poor and the rich included but was captured RED HANDED and was condemned to jail for 150 years just before the manipulated and cheated big and small creditors were preparing to get his head on to their electric frying pan. :)

    Please do not tell this secret confidential of mine to tyrant Meles and his noisy cadres as well as the bond buyers who lost their money.

  14. Al-Qaida’s East African leader(with $5mill bounty on his head) has just been killed in Somalia by forces loyal to PM Zenawi! THis is WEYANE’s gift to Hillary Clinton when she comes to Addis Ababa!

    I am thrilled. Every time I tune to news-outlets, it is only “good” that is happening to our government and country. Clumsy “opposition” is in disarray rotting day by day.

    TPLF/EPRDF forever !

  15. The timing of this purchase makes Ethiopians question are the tanks for the benefit of the people or for the benefit of the few governmental elites ? Even U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton warned horn of Africa of a creeping “new colonialism” from foreign investors and governments interested only in extracting the continent’s natural resources to enrich themselves and not the African people.
    Clinton said that African leaders must ensure that foreign projects are sustainable and benefit all their citizens, not only elites. A day earlier, she cautioned that China’s massive investments and business interests in Africa need to be closely watched so that the African people are not taken advantage of.

    Clinton said “It is easy, and we saw that during colonial times, it is easy to come in, take out natural resources, pay off leaders and leave,” Clinton said. “And when you leave, you don’t leave much behind for the people who are there. We don’t want to see a new colonialism in Africa.”

  16. This forum is so infested by weyane. You used to censor even non tplf opinion ( I stopped comment). You need to censor these ppl, they are unprofessional gangs.

  17. One TPLF cadre is writing here under different names attacking Elias for an irrelevant spelling error, this guy has been disappeared during the Beka slogans and the planned to be undertaken for May 28 but not held Egyptian style demonstrations.

    Back to the tanks, Mengistu bought more tanks than any African country in history, but his tanks could not save him from ruins. As the amharic saying,”Feri hulet dula yiyizal,” and as there are no UN soldiers in the buffer zone between Eritrea & Ethiopia Meles is scared to death now a days, and he is in a buying spree of armaments. He is not going to have a peaceful night’s sleep unless he evacuates Badme and make peace with Eritrea. It was Meles who requested for UN peace keepers in the buffer zone in the Algers agreement, but later shaebia told them to leave the buffer zone and Meles is not safe. He has to buy more and more armaments for his peace of mind. As long as the money flows from his masters and as long as he can afford he will continue to buy more tanks untill each and every tigrian soldier has one tank and eventually make Ethipia a country which has more tanks than cars. This shows how much the weyane is frustrated these days.

  18. $100million?!….. with that amount of money, Weyane could have bought a thousand tractors, combined harvesters & other other agrcultural equipment and still could have had a few loose change, enough for a yr long Khat to feed Meles’ Khat Addiction…….. Meles will no doubt is being advised by the war lord of the region, the US, to open war on Eritrea…… We ain’t naive, we’ve been waiting for it…… Weyane as it is without a war can be susciptable to downfall but war is meant to divert its internal problems…… He is advised so & his only question o’s how high to jump
    or how fast to run….. Nothing else….. Once a puppet, is a puppet for life….
    As far as Eritrea is concerned Weyaninos ain’t a threat but a mere diversion of the bigger danger called the military presence of the US in the region, causing chaos & distability wherever they are & wherever they got full time puppets. The US had tried to use Djibouti as a launching pad to create a prob last coupe of yrs and it didn’t work and we didn’t bite the bait….. Now weyane is the insurance for the US but knows fully well that weyane ain’t no match to the EDF force even with Billions of dollars weyane get from the US every year while Eritrea is unfairly sanctioned to in order to weaken it in the run up to the premeditated war effort the US is brewing up as usual. The latest Brits who were caught and charged for espionage, terrorism & more than 10 other illegal activities is part & parcel
    of the bigger picture….. Telescopic guns with thousands of poison bullets, Night-vision googles, silencer guns, GPS & radio communication stashed in one of our islands as a launching pad were all caught red handed…… Weyane is a mere diversion of all these bigger threat. Just as derg used to call weyane, “Shibir Fetari”, …. It’s doing exactly that right now……. Weyane will no doubt will be dissimated shortly after it opened a war of aggression on Eritrea ….. Then our focus should be geared on the US empire that is showing increasing aggression around the globe…..

  19. why are u worried so much about spelling error any body could make mistake it’s a human error do make it such big but that is not the main point i believe this is about a country and the people why is this regime buying a Tank while the people live under poverty do we need to fight Eritrea and for what ?

  20. What a difference a generation makes. U brainless sycophants who are focused on the editor or the opposition make the fascist bandas look better. Yes famine and killing would be over without your types and the Ukrain tanks!
    Our Yemeni invaders are saying let them eat Tanks a la Marie Antonette. You know what happened to her. Now look for the highest tree and 6 foot rope.

  21. Meles is real politicians like an acrobatics that keep his balance by doing the opposite what he say. The Ethiopian farmers needs more tractor than tanks, the hungry children needs bread not tanks.
    The weyane needs more thanks to protect themselves from the Ethiopian people it is an indication of fear. I have never seen a prime Minster that made speech to his on people under bullet proof shield, which shows me how much he is afraid of Ethiopians. I suppose his days are numbered.

  22. hello my brothers and sisters, do you understand what Meles is doing? he is telling us that it will take a miracle to reomove me form the post of dictatorship in this coming decade. Now as far as I see, we talk too much and act less brothers and sisters. we need to start to be self less and start serving our brothers and sisters by giving our time, money and then our life for our country. Gobez Tenesa/Teneshi agerachin kegibu inadinat be hiwetachin. Beka menager yibkana inimerish brothers and sisters..
