Freedom and peace for Ethiopian People wither you oppose HR2003 or not Americans knows what Ebdu Meles did there for lastly all those who were with meles will be in Peoples hand. Whether Teteratariw Brihanu or Biritukan never be away from the people at that time Ethiopian people will decide not Americans there for the reason why they need Hr 2003 is to be positive in both side.any ways HR 2003 is good for Ethiopian not for melese Asheker.not for those who are getting benefited from Melse Now do you know what meles is doing in his region he start building stores for weapon. They may be building house to hide themselves like Sadam but Americans will easily see all this .which means that there is no hidden thing for Americans. Weyne will be Destroyed in the near future……………………….....

Injustice anywhere is Injustice everywhere. Anybody knows EPRDF is a cover, the government is still TPLF and it has hired a very expensice Lobbying fiorm DLA Piper for 50,000USD per month to kill the Human Rights Bill. It is very important to support teh Bill to fight Dictators....

So, here is my simple suggestion what we should do to regain our Identity, without a cost of money and people to die for. 1. Honestly, every single person should apology to God and asks forgiveness for our sins. GOD is not like Bush administration that do harm to people like Iraqi. We should ask GOD to help us strengthen our faith in bringing peace to our country, instead of bushing around! 2. We should ask GOD helping us clear our psychological differences to come at rest and be able to focus in unity. 3. We should ask GOD to help us to LOVE each other. It is my personal believe that we will NOT precede our first step forward if we are still looking for some help from others other then GOD. Good luck if you can be succeeding! We already seen the problems we are facing to pass the HR2K3, even though it was written for human right....

I think we are fooling ourselves! Every single person born with freedom and has right to exercise his/her freedom without interfering other's territory. We already knew about all the contents of HR2003 (which ever you call it). Haven't you guys learned about internal problems in USA governments? They got three kinds of people working inside their government. 1. Honest (not even closed to 100%) 2. Confused (flip flapped) 3. Corrupted But, here is something we all forgotten to look for – GOD (Allah, Yahweh…). In his government, there is only one kind of character; Honesty! What I see is we all lost our faith in believing GOD. Instead, we are seeking someone’s hand to take us out from our mess. Just to remind; the Bible says in Psalm 87:4, “Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God”. Sadly, our hand is not yet reached to GOD!...

A good starting point for promotion of democracy abroad by the USA is to support this bill. As Ethiopia is one of the most populous nations in Africa, alliance with this authoritarian, brutal and despotic regime of Meles will certainly damages the interest of USA in the long run. The government of Meles has committed genocide in Ogadenia and Oromia, raped and killed several thousands of opposition supporters and members. Credible reports by many human rights groups have documented the endless gross human rights violation committed by Meles and his murderous cliques. Thus this bill will certainly change the state of affairs in Ethiopia and any self respecting democracy loving person should support it....

It is bad news indeed to hear the bill passed while Ethiopia is on the right track making very momentous changes, and every endeavor to meet the millennium goals. It’s not with the bill the Ethiopia’s renaissance will become a reality. The HR 2003 bill will bring about nothing good more than endangering the relation of the two countries. If there are Ethiopians to accept the endorsement of the bill with pleasure, they are politicians who are unresponsive to the country or their supporters who are unrepresentative minority; ‘the blind leading the blind’. This is high treason for they can never have any reason to be happy when their people are ill-treated. Today, there is no exaggerated crisis in Ethiopia unless the congress is blinded by the ill-founded complaints and reports of the unlawful infidels; the outvoted. HR2003bill is not right for it is undeserved punishment and ill-treatment for millions of poor Ethiopians....

Ethiopia is a sovereign country. It has leaders who have got hold of power on the consent of its people. It is our right to get a bill through our representatives. It is not the right of the American HR and senators to pass legislation on Ethiopia’s interest. The American HR and senators are elected by their people to serve their people; not the Ethiopian people. It doesn’t sound plausible for the congress to endorse the HR 2003 bill on Ethiopia based on false reports. If our constitution is in need of change we have to amend it on ourselves through our representatives. We should not be deprived of our right to do this, and America should let’s exercise our democracy by our selves as they have been doing since 1787 to improve their constitution and achieve their present day democracy. The present day America’s democracy is not a day’s achievement. It has developed in time....
