Stop Amhara Genocide in Ethiopia


Stop Amhara Genocide in Ethiopia
The Issue
Amhara people are residents of the Ethiopian central highlands. They are one of the major ethnolinguistic groups in the country. The language of the Amhara is known as Amharic which belongs to the Semitic language family. The Amhara inhabit in all parts of the present-day Ethiopia, and have long and remarkable history in the Ethiopian State formation.
In 1991, the Ethiopian government formed "Ethnic based Negative Federalism" which make the Amhara people stateless in Ethiopia. Since then, more than two million Amhara were eliminated from Ethiopia. Some left the country; many of them killed by organised and state funded ethnic cleansing.
Following the coming to power of Dr. Abiy Ahmed Ali in 2018, there was hope in the country that human rights will be respected. However, systematic Ethnic cleansing continued in a more harsh and heart breaking manner. Since 2018, more than 10,000 innocent Amhara got slaughtered all over the country.
In this month only, more than 2000 Amhara massacred; among whom many of them were consumed by canibalist Gumuz tribes. Others got burned like trash and excavators used to evacuate the dead body.
Therefore, all the human race should struggle to stop Amhara genocide in the 21st century before the country goes to endless Civil War.
Hence, the U.S., E.U., and other providers of weaponry to Ethiopia should cut off weapons sales.
· The U.N., African Union, and the U.S. should offer to broker a ceasefire between the parties in Ethiopia and bring them to the negotiation table to end this incipient civil war.
· The genocidal intent and atrocities committed by the Oromo Liberation Army (OLA), Tigrian Libration Front (TPLF) and Gumuz Militia Groups should be condemned and the perpetrators of the massacres of Amharas should be brought to justice.
· The Ethiopian Constitution should be amended to remove the right of secession of ethnic regions, to prohibit regional militias, and to strengthen the federal government.
· Ethiopian diasporas in the U.S. and Europe should stop sending money to support the ethnic war.
