It time for the sons and daughters of Atse Yohannes and Alula Aba Nega to wake up and bring the Eritrean regime down. What are waiting for? We have nothing to lose as far I am concerned. The West is not going to come to our rescue, the West is not a partner in our fight to eradicate poverty in Ethiopia. A campaign by the French and Italians to stop the building of dams that will enable us to expand the use of electricity through out the country is one example to why we shouldn't allow the West interfere in our affairs.A nation with out power as we know can't eradicate poverty and feed its people. Electric power is crucial to our development. Let's use our waters for they are ours. We don't get Oil from the Saudis for free, we don't get the proceeds from the Millions of dollars that Egypt earns from its tourist industry.I suggest that, Ethiopia, as the sole owner of the bulk of the water that flows to the Nile, must start charging the Egyptians and the Sudanese $100 dollars per barrel of water. We can't be told by the Arabs in Egypt not to use our waters when our people are starving from the lack of water when we have plenty of it. We can't be told by the Arabs in Egypt and their allies not to build dams for hydroelectric power in our country.
But, first we must eradicate the threat to our development and existence which is the Shaebia army!!Shaebia must not be allowed to train and arm anti-Ethiopian elements in the name of development, for there is no development when the enemy is constantly disrupting the peace . A poor country like ours can't make any progress as long as Shaebia is in power. The threat to Ethiopia's existence has been and still is Shaebia. This must be clear to all parties and the Ethiopian people must understand that there cannot be peace if there is a constant threat from a tiny and rogue nation of Eritrea in the north.After about thirty years of war, we lost our access to the sea and we are at the mercy of Islamic countries for our imports and exports. The people in power don't seem to understand the impact of not having an access to the sea. The people in power don't seem to understand that Eritrea could potentially form an alliance with the Arabs and be used as a staging ground to destabilize our nation.Eritrea, after getting its independence, which was only possible with the heavy sacrifices that Tigrian fighters paid in defeating the Derg, invaded Ethiopia claiming that Badime and other territories belonged to her. There is no such thing as Eritrean, for there is no nation called Eritrea. Eritrea is an Ethiopian province and the Red Sea is Ethiopia's territorial water, period. The government in power committed the crime of the Millennium by ceding our land and land locking a nation of over Eighty million people. What we Ethiopians need at this time is nationalists to lead our nation and defend her from its enemies. What we need at this time is nationalists to be in charge of our country and get rid of the Shaebia army which has been and still is a threat to our national security.
We have a lot to do in Ethiopia. We have a duty to utilize our waters which have a huge potential for building hydro-electric powers and make sure all Ethiopians have electricity in their villages and homes. Electrification is crucial to our development and progress. To fully utilize our rivers for hydroelectric powers, we must first unite and defend our nation from hostile neighbouring nations like Eritrea and Somalia. We must have a strong army which is able to defend the Ethiopian people so that they can fully concentrate on eradicating poverty. We can't make any progress if there is a constant threat to our national security, which is the Shaebia government that we helped create.
