Ethiopia: Dallas confronts TPLF delegation

November 14, 2010 (DALLAS ) - Ethiopian activists living here in Dallas on Saturday confronted a delegation of the enemy regime that had come to the city under the pretext of briefing the Ethiopian community on so-called five-year development plan and the overall situation in the country.

The activists forced the beginning of the session with the observance of a minute of silence of the nearly 200 Ethiopians who were murdered by the government following the stolen elections in 2005.

The Ethiopian Community in Dallas Fortworth has been a target for division, but patriotic Ethiopians have been putting up a brave fight to maintain their unity in the face of those hirelings.

Ealier last week, an article in Amharic posted on Ethiomedia had alerted the community that a TPLF delegation was coming to town to sow the seeds of hate and division, all in the name of "serving the needs of the Ethiopian Diaspora."

Since Meles Zenawi's TPLF came to power in 1991, Ethiopia has gone from bad to worse in human rights violations as well as living conditions that are appalling even by African standards.

Even if the country boasts of vast arable lands, Ethiopians are by law prohibited to own land, and yet the enemy regime leases out the hugely lucrative agro areas to foreign companies for dirt cheap prices for up to 100 years.
