EDITOR’S NOTE: Over $1 billion dollars the Meles dictatorship in Ethiopia receives annually in aid and loan from the U.S. and other countries have made the country more poor, and the regime more corrupt and brutal. Little or none of this $151-million would go to serve the people of Ethiopia. It is an award to Meles for being a good puppet. The money is going to be used to fuel the Woyanne instruments of repression. The people of Ethiopia continue to live in an abject poverty as the video below shows.
ADDIS ABABA (AFP) — The United States has given Ethiopia 151 million dollars to boost its health and education services, the US embassy said here on Tuesday.
The agreement was signed Monday by USAID representative Glenn Anders, US ambassador to Ethiopia Donald Yamamoto and Ethiopia’s Finance Minister Mekonnen Manyazewal, a statement said.
The grant will also finance economic growth and democracy and governance programmes.
Washington will this year also provide more than 900 million dollars (610 million euros) in aid to the Horn of Africa country, a key ally in its anti-terrorism war.
Ethiopia received US backing in late 2006 when it deployed troops to neighbouring Somalia to overthrow an Islamist movement accused of harbouring extremist elements.
The video below shows the result of U.S. assistance to the brutal dictatorship in Ethiopia. It shows Ethiopia’s obscene poverty after 17 years of plunder by the U.S.-financed regime of the Tigrean People Liberation Front.

As we all know, It is embarrassing for the US govt to support a terrorist group of weyane while the US stands in fighting the terrorist around the globe.
No one can not be ignorant from the fact that the weyane evil anti human group is the most criminal and the worst corrupted illegitimate govt in the world.
It is very obvious that the $151 million dollars will directly go to the pockets of Meles Sytanwai families and its self owned party TPLF members as soon as the money given to Weyane. Of course weyane would spend some of the money to strenghting the destructive forces of agazi for security purposes and some of the little money would go to the HODAM cadres of Weyane in Ethiopia and in Diaspora, so that the weyane mouth piece cadres will continue to sing Meles Sytanwi’s false development lyrics.
But my attention goes to my our Ethiopian citizens who has not started to support best weyane oppositions group like Ginbot 7 to ultimately destroy the weyane criminal group from Ethiopia. It is obvious that the US govt is giving millions of dollars to weyane is that wyenae is democrat, it is the fact that the US wants any group in Ethiopia that maintain their interests. As of now, it is obvious that the US assumes that weyane criminal group can be an alley for the US to combat the terrorist group, however weyane it is self is a terrorist group that is terrorizing it is own citizens.
Lets stop getting mad about the US and lets start to get rid of the weyane criminal group so that the US would not be an alley to weyane any more…..
Lets start support the best leadership of Ginbot 7 to ultimately sweep out the weayen criminal group once and for all.
We may get DELAYED to reach our Targets( to get rid of the weyane criminal groups),
But every step we take towards our target is EQUAL to Victory.
So lets start contributing to support Ginbot 7.
Viva to Ginbot 7
Death to all members and supporters of weyane.
I read an article on ethiomedia.com that says ” Top 10 Ethiopian Websites – 2008″ thats a pure lie.
Based on website traffic ranking, the most visited ethiopian site is Ethiopianreview.com. Ethiopianreview.com is among the 100,000 most visited world sites, ranking about #65,000 out of 100,000.
According movers and shakers traffic graph, Ethiomedia.com is not even in the 100,000 top most visited sites of the world.

When you are a beggar it is a very bad psychology to insult alms. Thanks America for this generous gift of 151 million USD.
This money will never change the living condition of our people by an iota.
This is a shame for Ethiopians. When are we going to grow??
I think the Wall Street gangsters are having a party for getting $700 000 000 000 billion.
what do we expect. Hey servants have to get paid for their service. Don’t they? wey meskinwa Ethiopia!
This handout by the US is nothing new, all the US is doing is assuring its interests and having Woyanne do what the US wants them to do and in return Woyanne does what they are ordered, it is a good deal for the fascist Woyanne regime because they get to paid for their services to their master and the masters get what they want, that is chaos, hunger, war, mismanagement, illiteracy and backwardness assured while they do what they want. There is one thing that Woyanne and regimes like them can’t do, run a nation, they won’t last a month without the handouts of their masters. No matter how much Woyanne gets from their masters nothing positive will happen for the people of Ethiopia.
Danny,
You may need “An’d Seeny Abbol Buuna”.
You seem to be always ‘there’,toing and froing.
It’s about the 151 million, that people are talking about.
ER is reminding us that Woyane is gettng fat on over a billion dollars of grant and loan money this year alone, while millions are gnawing.
Grant or loan, it’s our money in their hand. And the point is, what can we do or say about it?
Peace.
Hier again Mr. Yamamato
Does he know what a good governance is. His bos mr Bush brought the biggest economical disaster sinds 1920 to USA- not only that they are deliberately destroying countries like ours- look their policy in Ethiopia- they were financing woyane in 1995 and their military vechels were used to massacre the opposition supporters. Woyane didn’t stop only in Ethiopia but also in Somalia they brought disaster more than 1 milion somalies left their land the massacre is to compare with Hitler but still woyane enjoys the hulp of USA administration. are they hulping Ethiopia NO! No! No
I agree – all the money in the world wont help if it dnt get to the people. Snd soldiers and build de-salinization plants so the people can convert sea water for growing food. Just sending money is a waste.
Those who never learn from history will always doom to fail. In this particular case both the Woyane regime( the recipient) and the west (the donor?)chose to ignore the events in our region during the cold war in which, despite the enormouse military and finincial support the Dergue enjoyed both from the East( Soviet Union) and West (USA/UK),
the collapse of what at the time was known Africa’s strongest army became inevitable. Neither the west and nor the east were able to meet their geopolitical objectives using financial/military aid as a tool. The reason was simple: At no time in the world history did we see the demise of the oppressed society by force as we saw it been attempted during the Dergue’s “Red Terror” or that we are going through now under the TPLF murderous regime. If the west and, particularly the US administration, thinks such a huge financial support to the most oppressive regime is going to solve Ethiopia’s problem, they need to think again. Then again, considering that we have some of the most immature and clueless diplomats such as Fraizure and Yamamoto in the region who defend a most indefensible brutal regime, one shouldn’t be surprised by the TPLF’s childish behaviour and sheer disregard to the rule of law. The lesson one must draw from this is that when it comes to people’s struggle, the will of the oppressed people to fight has been and will always be the determining factor in its outcome. Superiority, whether military or financial, does not have much of decisive effect.
