The butcher of Addis Ababa is coming to Washington DC

Dictator Meles Zenawi, the butcher of Addis Ababa, Ogaden, Mogadishu, Anuak… is coming to Washington DC on Monday or Tuesday, according to Ethiopian Review sources.

Meles will be in Washington to meet with State Department officials.

The U.S. House of Representatives will take final action on H.R. 2003 Tuesday, Oct. 2. Meles is expected to make last minute attempt to dissuade members of Congress from voting on the bill.

This could be the last time for Meles to travel to the U.S., because if H.R. 2003 is passed by Congress, all government officials in Ethiopia who are responsible for the massacre of unarmed civilians after the May 2005 elections would be banned from entering the U.S. [read more about H.R. 2003 here].

Ethiopians in Washington DC are ready to give Meles the kind of welcome a blood thirsty dictator deserves — spoiled eggs and tomatoes are being collected.

We will post update on the dictator’s arrival as we get more information.
