[Pol.ethiopia] Number of war dead soldiers reportedly 123,000

[Andualem Beshah]

Bakachihu isun tewut

It is at least 200,000 if not more.  Ya hulu 9 wer yetekebere fenji be 4 ken tyetedemesesew Beahiya hail bicha new bitilu yemyamnachihu yelem, weyim ageru wist keigna beker Ahiya bemulu Alkual malet new, Tegelaglewal.

Let me ask something that migh be peripheral.  Why are there Hodam's like Dawit Timo.  I don't understand it, is it his Genetic makeup that makes him love unjust and indecent activities like his granddaddy or is it that he is just bad in his own right.  In other words Nature or nurture ?

Did Meles the human Gnome get addicted to the attention he was getting as a "political derivator" of even the most derivative ideas, because I know Dawit did.  He was the most "pleasent" individual, I hear, apparently his true nature was being tortured because it had been a while since he had betrayed someone.

So off to Addis when Woyane comes in, first betray his Ethiopian Heritage calling Menelik, Gobena, Balcha, HabteGiorgis "Chavnists and stooges of Amhara Hegemony" next betray his heritage by claiming the Amhara as the bigest oppressors deserved what they got at Arba Gugu and Bedeno(interesting isn't it Dawit, that when beloved Asrat Woldeyes established AAPO in the Days when no organization wanted to help Amhara's your ANDM was nowhere around, only afterwards to try to hijack the good proffesors efforts).  Then he betrays his own Compadre the Sugar Addicted master derivator Tamerat Layne(ina lejoroye:) himself,when he got caught stealing from the till taking a crack(pardon the pun, ok ok never mind) at Fikreselassie's wishima.  

Then he betrays his best friend Isu, now he is poised to betray his Best friend Meles :) ( What Dawit you don't think the Ethiopian people are that informed at least, come on  its pretty transparent, but you might be a little more careful).
1. Dawit does not share battlefield memories with anyone, he is that much easier to dispatch.  
2. If there is a more hated person in Ethiopia thyan Meles it is Dawit Yohannes, he is hated most by his own Amhara "constituency" that is suposed to have elected him. 
3. There will need be a sacrifice for the curent row, Dawit as a Meles boot-licker, that is plotting and conspriting currently to oust Meles fits the role admirablly.

A note to Timo:
Sima anto mela bis, yalehin and maderya atiTa irsihin Negseh Ayteh Yihonal, don't be a fool, you are being setup like the proverbial Tksgiving turkey.  Me personally I don't care what you do, I know you will get  what you deserve eventually.  But I enjoy watching you twist in the wind and your utterings and doings provide me with great entertainment.  So if you can help it, try and hang around for a little longer.
