That country is trying to prove itself to be a land of ‘eternal’ flame. Now peace has finally arrived in the Northern part of the nation but its violence prone miscreant children are itching to start another fire in areas at the center. It has produced children that have refused to grow straight up turning into bigots and monsters. In their sick and twisted mind an Oromo is their sworn enemy no matter what. In their cursed outlook an Amhara is always their unrepentant historic adversary. It was ‘neftegna’ before and now it is ‘Oromummaa’. These two mean death sentence over your head over there and it has proven to be true. Innocent citizens have been chopped up and their Allah meticulously created bodies were shown being thrown into a raging fire and their skulls put on display on spikes. I had said this right after the demise of EPRDF in 2018 and when things seem to be looking up after that. I had said it was it, the last pit stop at a cross road with one leading to The Promised Land where the rights of the individual are protected by the law of the land with no one allowed to be above it and the 2nd leading to irreversible abyss. All credit to its loose lipped and bigoted children it may descend into the 2nd route unless we clean our act altogether.
