Why All This Posturing?

We heard these days Woyane partaking in Obama's presidential inauguration in Sheraton Addis and organizing some events in the commemoration of Black History Month.

Since Woyane's assumption of power in Ethiopia, there were five presidential inaugurations in the US, twice for Clinton, twice for George W. Bush and one for Obama. Also, there were 17 Balck History Months. Where was Woyane all this time? In its actions so far, Woyane was more affiliated to G.W. Bush, and to the racists who were perpetrating the atrocities on the Civil Rights marchers of the 60's, as it demonstrated in the aftermath of the 2005 elections. Why didn't it celebrate the inauguration of G.W.Bush? In fact, he was their most ardent supporter, both deplomatically and financially.

Whom is Woyane trying to fool? Does Woyane think democrats, who have been trying to pass HR 2003 in the US Senate, do not know what was and is going in Ethiopia since the rigged election of 2005? Isn't Woyane the party that was killing innocent demonstraters in Addis Ababa, Awassa, Bench Maji Zone, in Gambella, in Ambo? Does Woyane think that the Ethiopian people have forgotten all these?

Woyane should know that it can no longer deceive anybody through all this politcal posutring. It has to come to terms with reality and submit to the voice of the Ethiopian people. Or face the inevitable defeat!!! Nobody in the wrong side of history has ever won!!!
