Anthony Mitchell of AP Forced out of Ethiopia by Meles Graziani



The TPLF dictator has finally picked the fight that will screw him big time - he now wants to fight the main stream Western media which has more or less been too timid so far in confronting him. He just had Andrew Mitchell of AP whose famous articles were the stupid '2 cheetahs' and 'sing like a donkey' articles kicked out of Ethiopia.

I think this is a victory for Ethiopians. When 15 people died only 3 days ago during Timket, BBC and CNN reported 2 dead. In fact, they later downgraded it to 1. If you look at main stream media, they have been way timid with Meles. Look what they got. Now, I suspect every move of Meles will be scrutinized and these timid main-streamers will descend on him and paint him as Idi Amin or some ignorant blood thirsty Third World dictator. It is funny the journey meles took. In the 70s and 80s, he was a communist who thoughyt Albania was an example to be emulated. In the 90s, he fooled the West but remained as a committed 'revolutionary democrat' (same term Mao used for his revolution) and took about 15 Billion from the foolish westerners. Now, he is back to what ignorant dictators like Mobutu, Bokassa and Idi Amin did-picking fight with foreign correspondents.

Good news for Ethiopians, I repeat.........

Like Christopher Clapham said: the transformation of Ethiopia is already under way!!!!
