BY AHMED MOHAMMED (Part I)
Shortly after TPLF ambushed and massacred the unsuspecting troops of ours, Ethiopia reacted sadly, angrily and patriotically, a very swift response of a hundred million plus citizens, all of a sudden united to confront such a team of inhumane.
As the dictum goes, disadvantages do always bear some sort of advantages, just the way the atrocity made Ethiopians put aside their minor differences and headed to the north; some in their flesh to fight TPLF, some others contributed millions of dollars in a single day, a euphoric episode of history which has become bold enough not only to eliminate TPLF, but also for any potential enemy of Ethiopia to reconsider how they behave if they think the other way round.
It’s customary for Ethiopia to offer seemingly fertile ground for its enemy, thereby to foil fouls of fools. This is what Ethiopia is all about, differences have no room when its enemy is tempted to snake through, just the way Italian colonialists did back then, and TPLF the fool retried it due its ignorance to the essence of Ethiopia.
TPLF did such a treason hoping it was the right time to stage its long kept script of breaking Ethiopia, but its vintage of destruction reacted and swallowed itself, burned of flames it lit to burn down Ethiopia blazed back, calling it death from self-inflicted gunshot.
Hats off to their master-mind, who might have gone high for excessive dosage of cocaine, he or her miscalculation not only shortened its life from the political landscape, closing its stroke of lack of making a comeback, but also has refreshed us the never ceasing vintage of coming together when a potential threat is in sight, out there.
Oops! Do I sound thematically stagnant, promoting the beauty of Ethiopia?! But not out of being disorganized, rather from being euphoric, euphoric of the patriotic reactions and epics Ethiopians staged and played as they headed to punish TPLF, the wordlessly shameful group of old guards who boated of their mighty military muscle after they massacred off duty own troops.
I’m still short of words on how to spell out their atrocity, the sorts of comfort they dream of enjoying at the expense of massacring heroes, untold heroes of multiple decorations. Almost all of the unsuspecting troops TPLF ambushed meant a lot to Tigray, some of their comrades fell back in time defending the region and the country, built schools, roads, health posts, deducting from their inadequate salary.
It’s really paining what they earned in return to their kindly deeds and bravery, TPLF –the evil in its pure form gunned some of them hand -cuffed and abandoned to beasts with no decent burial, even feasted their death, and expelled some others to neighboring Eritrea in their nudity, where they had a warm welcome, fed, treated and dressed .
Sad we are though still with fall troops, TPLF had the swiftest mighty response of its choice, the regrouped troops of ours made a comeback led by lionized generals, damaging the falsely and shallowly trained militia and special forces of TPLF, some of them manipulated by its fabricated scripts of hatred.
All along the way towards Mekelle, in the push to swiftly bring perpetrators to justice, TPLF did the best of its falsely narrated rhetoric, but earned nothing, its looted arsenals refused to be operated and its forces sundered fronts from fronts, some without exchanging any fire….and many others died for a cause they did not know.
Sad for TPLF –manipulated teenagers, who it misled them fabricating ideal enemy with its hidden motive of reclaiming power, but salute to many of its militiamen who sensed its hidden nightmare of erasing Ethiopia from the horn, a nightmare –which has taken it –self never to return, but an anecdote for ….to benchmark an experience on how to deal with Ethiopia & its people.
Bitter for enemies of Ethiopia to sip, but national threat, as seen down in history, has brought Ethiopians together regardless of any natural and manmade differences. As ever before, the same way our forefathers and mothers showcased down in history, patriotism has once again witnessed renewing its seemingly faded away color of bravery to defend the beloved home…Ethiopia. With a fire lit to burn Ethiopia, TPLF took no time to transform itself into ash, and died of a self- inflicted gun -shot.
Both the divine scriptures of Islam and Christianity, plus accounts of history do boldly witness that it’s a customary for the enemy of Ethiopia to burn from a self –lit wild fire, which TPLF is now self-evidently being turned into ash with a blaze it fired to burn Ethiopia. It’s loud and clear that this is not the first time for the enemy of Ethiopia to be fooled in their greedy drive to erase Ethiopia, but they all, one after the other, have been trapped by a conspiracy they made to ridicule Ethiopia; its wisdom, history and identity.
