Civil war enters second year in Ethiopia

Isn't this going to make them fight even harder?

No, the problem with the TPLF is that it is in the stage of Post-Ideology. It has no new moto or ideology to sell to the public so that it can rally the people. What it has is all worn out talk the people have been hearing for the last 30 years. That is not enough to gain wider support. Besides, TPLF is hiding that it has already lost western Tigray in 3 days offensive, telling the public all is under control. This is yet another stupid strategy. As long as all is in control the public can go with its daily life.

I will just wait for you again to reupdate yourself with new information you get later.

The TPLF will be gravitating more and more to the Tigrayan ethnonationalism due to being confined to the Tigray Region and its old cadre aging. The young Tigrayans don't give a rat's ass about previous ideologies. The TPLF is evolving. They are far from being lost ideologically as you claim.

This is called being smart.

Carrot and stick approach.

He wants to show to the IC that he is willing to negotiate while on the ground being a formidable force.

Somerging Abye doesnt know he closed all does to negotiate putting him on a bad spot.

It doesn't matter what the IC says or does. There will be no negotiation with TPLF after attacking the federal forces while they were sleeping. That is a declaration of war against the state and the highest form of treason. Negotiation is impossible. Not gonna happen! They attacked the army and must face the army or surrender. There is nothing in-between. The PP party already said there will be no negotiations, period!

Azerbaijan and Armenia were three times in ceasefire negotiations but continued to fight. The IC can't blame them for not trying.. Maybe Debretsion Gebremichael and Abiy Ahmed will do the same to handle the international pressure but actually keep fighting?

There is zero evidence for this. In fact, we have evidence of the opposite showing that Abiy has been planning this for a while. The international community saw the federal troop movements in the days leading up to the fighting so the only ones falling for this propaganda are 63 IQ Ethiopians.

I have a friend whose brother is in the army and she told me horrible scenes how the TPLF attacked at night and in some instances simply massacred the troops while sleeping just to get their hardware. Even the TPLF itself has many times admitted on Tigray TV that it got hold of the northern command military hardware. How can a local militia get hold of the army's hardware? TPLF says the northern command willingly did that. If you believe this nonsense then your IQ is not 63 but 36 for real. So all facts and witnesses from different sources including from the TPLF itself clearly point to the fact the crime TPLF committed against the army stationed in Tigray. This is a declaration of war on the Ethiopian state. Now TPLF has to face the consequences. The army is so motivated and furious. Many Ethiopians are very angry and supporting the army in everything. It looks like this time the TPLF started a fight with the wrong guy.
 
Wallahi you are True qashin. This much hate should not be allowed in the world. I hope they invent a brain chip with explosive in it.

Ethiopian commandos started the whole thing, yet you never mentioned this. Are you taking us for fools feeding such garbage to us?

BREAKING: Ethiopia’s failed “Surgical Strike” commando raid to remove the Tigray leadership

November 5, 2020 Martin Plaut Ethiopia, News


Very early Wednesday morning aircraft carrying Ethiopian commandos took off on a mission to eliminate the Tigrayan leadership.

Ethiopian sources suggest that the force was airlifted into Mekelle in two helicopters and an Antonov from Bahr Dar, to try and seize the TPLF leadership at a hotel.


Social media reports that the hotel in question was the Planet.

The commandos landed without a problem and drove into Mekelle, seizing control of the hotel.

But the intelligence they were operating from was faulty. The Tigrayan leaders they were seeking were not there. The commandos then withdrew.


It is not clear if the unit was involved in any fighting.

But after the failed raid, Tigrean forces took over the Ethiopian National Defence Force camp (the Northern Command barracks for Mekelle) near the airport (when there was some fighting), as well as taking control of the airport itself.

It is not clear if the commando raid preceded Prime Minister Abiy’s claim of a TPLF attack on the Northern Command barracks. But there had already been some fighting in Western Tigray by then between Amhara Special Forces and Tigrean troops.

Ethiopians report Prime Minister Abiy as saying that aircraft had been sent to Tigray to “deliver new notes” – presumably cover for the unsuccessful raid.

The official Ethiopian position is that the TPLF leaders must surrender; no discussions possible.

I wouldn't believe either side, TPLF or Abiy, both would lie and have lied, for the sake of their interests. Time will tell and expose everything indeed. Meanwhile, the OLF/Oromo's must strengthen themselves.
