I've just come across a disturbing information that was distributed 3 days ago, the truth of which I can not confirm despite so much evidence presented but only time will show as some evidence from the recent events also seem to hint. In my last post I spoke wondering what they were attempting with the "witch hunt", this has clarified a bit.
What must be said will be said if it help save any lives if at all.
I will try to cross check the points with other evidence from what has already been exposed by other witnesses.
Apparently there is a plot called Operation "kintsila" or whatever designed through talks between OLF, TPLF, and Abiy's government. An operation meant to continue for 1 or 2 years which attempts to break down and target Amharas, mostly influential or financially stronger Amharas through what ever tactics.
This reminds me of how before restoring justice with TPLF and OLF, the government had targeted Alamoudi, the richest man in Ethiopia, and an Amhara. When that didnt work, we heard plots of divisive action to financially separate muslim and Christian Amharas through different banking systems.
With what logic can you explain that Jal Maro or one of the Tplf goons sits free while innocent Amharas who did nothing and seem even remotely connected are arrested through bogus claims when differing information about what took place keeps being spilled from different sides? While recordings of murdered witnesses are being released? While others who were near by have also openly exposed that there were threats on their lives too though they escaped through some failure of the plan as they are well known. Eg: As already revealed, Amhara special force were told to shoot a certain mini bus carrying a certain famous activist (without their knowledge of who was in their minibus) in Bahir Dar at the time of the supposed "assasination". It was by some miracle that they identified him and allowed him to pass in shock.
And even other officials who were targeted in this plot simply to divide Amharas and target or humiliate.
At this point I dont know what to believe but I only sense a naggy feeling of something sinister. And it is because I have followed every step that I sense this. Because I see every tiny inconsistency and contradictions in their pattern of actions.
If they are working to bring Ethiopia closer then why retain the ethnic federalism? Wgo else is in their way but themselves? Its well know Amharas dont stand in the way if that. And if there is an ethnic federalism then why are they threatened by Amharas ethnic organisation while they themselves are organising themselves as an ethnic?

On one had it is said the Eprdf is doing a bit better with regards to the committee meetings and other recent tough announcements by officials but whether or not this will be limited to words as usual is yet to be seen.
•On the other hand, a mosque has been demolished which created public out cry and lead to confrontations with the police.
• New set of attacks in eastern Oromia.
• And Nama top member are still under arrest with an extended court date appointment.
In relation to this, is the confession by those arrested that in the pretext of the controversial "assassination" they are question about things like who is backing NAMA or who is backing ASRAT media.
So here is my question and some what of an answer for their interrogations.
What exactly have NAMA and ASRAT done?
I have never seen NAMA instigate any thing from the time I heard of them when they came accepting Abiys call. They are not affiliated with mobs or any armed forces like Tplf or OLF. The only thing that I have observed from them is their strong stance on Amhara issues often with a clash of interest with genocidal criminal parties like TPLF and OLF. They have also not bowed and put themselves under the offered though restrictive wing of Abiy and have been critical at times of the violence against Amharas. So how is it that Tplf, which has not only implicated in those crimes that have been officially exposed but is also still alternatively harming northern Amharas and has by several sides been implicated in ongoing violence is largely overlooked. How is it that the leadership of OLF and people like Jal Maro have not been dismantled and brought to justice as quickly , these who are implicated in bank robbing and other vile crimes and have their own armed groups? But Nama which has done none of this is being targeted for what???
I have come across many propaganda accusations of some speculated affiliation about the stronger oppositions. But here's the question, if this has even a shred of truth, how are those speculated affiliations doing? So the main ones surfs right through??? How can the government hope to gain trust with such blatant displays of suspicious actions?
