Ethiopia’s tyrant faces opposition in Copenhagen (video)

Opposition grows against the participation of Ethiopia’s brutal tyrant Meles Zenawi at the Copenhagen Climate Conference this month. Some are suggesting that his place should be rerouted to The Hague for trial at the International Criminal Court.

Freelance journalist Doug McGill, a former New York Times reporter, argues that Meles Zenawi should not be allowed to represent Africa at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP15). Also interviewed in the video below: Ethiopian immigrant Magn Nyang, PhD, who speaks of the genocide in his native Anuak region of Ethiopia in 2003.
