They pretty much destroyed Tigray. We're not talking about internal repression but full on total war between nations. I don't think Sudan can withstand that but I don't know how much damage Egypt would take. Plus all the international players.
Egypt deploys troops in Sudan in preparation of a war against Ethiopia.

Hibongo stand strong and tall against foreign invaders. Lamagoodles, ayrabs you name it.Guerre égypto-éthiopienne — Wikipédia

Ethio-Egypt war in 1875-1876.
Ethiopia won
Hibongo people are brave
International players? None of them are on Ethiopias side. China, Russia, and the US all side with Sudan and Egypt. Even if they weren’t Ethiopias military is a mess and would be easily crushed by Sudan alone.

crush them and conquer them. somalis are too divided and incompetent.
You just came out of the US shit list and why would Russia and especially China support you.
Stop with the delusions and being used by Egypt. Your country is probably going to end up as the next terror heaven.
Somalis almost conquered Ethiopia until Russia and Cuba rescued them. Now no one will help them.
Russia is building a base in Sudan, also one of the first African countries China invested in. Why are you so bitter? Ethiopia is already the new terror heaven. Not to mention they’re being sanctioned soon.

we didnt want addis ababa and most non somali territories. the hararis and arsi oromos supported somali independence and somalia in 77. but now somalis have been an absolute mess for past 3 decades.
who does sudan side with? egypt or ethiopia? is there gonna be a hot war? can egypt take on the habashis?
I'm not bitter. I don't want a stupid war over a dam. We don't want to get dragged into this and all the humanitarian fallout will be very bad for us.
Egypt, but majority of Sudanese don’t care for either country. I don’t think a war will blow out since Ethiopians are busy with a civil war but if it does no doubt Habash would lose.
Their most likely won’t be a war. Ethiopia is going through a repeat of the Derg era so instability won’t affect neighboring countries too much.
The Chinese have money invested in that dam, I don't think they are going to destroy it themselves, no matter how well they get along with Egypt and Sudan
Only a small portion of the dam. They invest far more into Egypt particularly the new capital being built.
They beat up the Khedive of Egypt (despite him having a more professional army, with better equipment, and the support of the British, French, and Italians), while they also beat up the Italians, the Zoo's, and other invaders.
Ethiopians are good at war.
If that crippling dictator wants to pressure Abiy, then he better regroup all of his Mamluks and Sudanese hunter-gatherers to "fight" Ethiopia.
I'm already picking up my bag,
gotta secure Hadiya.

so egypt has to bite the bullet? but a hostile anti muslim country have monopoly over most of the nile could be catastrophic.
It doesn’t make sense bringing up old wars when there’s now modern weapons which Ethiopia lacks. Not to mention they got humiliated countless times by the Mahdists until the Europeans came and saved them.
They won’t have monopoly of Nile, but if they try doing that then an actual war will happen between them and Egypt.
Egypt struggles to kill and capture terrorists,
despite their "modern weapons", you don't need a genius to see that Egypt doesn't have the financial prowess to support a war, but also despite the heavy military weapons, they can't even win against terrorists.
Don't bring up Guerilla Warfare, since the Republic of Chad is fighting at multiple fronts terrorists and rebels (and they are not losing as far as I know).
Egypt would lose its credibility in the eyes of the International Community, but military and financially, they'd fill for Bankruptcy.
If this scenario happens, I wish to see the inert body of Al-Sissy.
And you think Ethiopia, land of the barefoot has financial prowess for a war? They can’t even finish off the starving Tigrayan rebels or Oromos. Soon enough Addis will have the same fate as the rest of the country.
If Egypt is trying to invade or sabotage Ethiopia,
they will be the aggressor against a rightful and legitimate country, Ethiopia.
War won't happen, and if it does, Egypt will lose on all sides. No support from the International Community, nor from the African Union, the Arab League, and their economy will definitely crash (they have an ongoing project of the construction of a new Capital-city).
From a long-term perspective, both countries will be the losers.
There's no winner in a fight like this one.
But Egypt has much more to lose.
