	Ethiopia claims killing 111 rebels sent by rival Eritrea -- Middle East Times
		Dawit was unable to specify the nationalities of those killed, wounded or captured but a statement from the ministry, cited by the state-run Ethiopian News Agency (ENA), named seven alleged senior Eritrean agents who were killed.
		Eritrea accuses Ethiopia of violating the pact by refusing to accept a binding 2002 border demarcation that was a key pillar of the accord and has warned that new hostilities could erupt if the delineation is not accepted.
		Ethiopia, meanwhile, has demanded revisions to the demarcation that awarded the flashpoint border town of Badme to Eritrea, arguing that families and property will be unfairly split between the two nations.

		Dawit says that in 1998, while he was still in his teens, Ethiopian government officials seized him as he was leaving school one day.
		Dawit had, in fact, spent several months in Eritrea after graduating from high school the previous spring, but his purpose was to visit his mother's family and work as a volunteer, building schools and planting trees, he says.
		Looking at her with rested eyes, Dawit said that for the first time in ages, he had slept through the night "like a child sleeps," and that it was a joy to remember what it is like to simply sleep.

	Dawit I of Ethiopia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Taddesse Tamrat discusses a tradition that early in his reign Dawit campaigned against Egypt, reaching as far north as Aswan; in response the Emir forced the Patriarch of Alexandria, Matthew I, to send a deputation to Dawit to persuade him to retire back to his kingdom.
		According to al-Maqrizi, in 1403 Emperor Dawit pursued the Sultan of Adal, Sa'ad ad-Din II to Zeila where he killed Sa'ad ad-Din, and sacked Zeila; however, another contemporary source dates the death of Sa'ad ad-Din to 1415, and gives the credit to Emperor Yeshaq.
		In Ethiopian sources he is referred to as Dawit II (and all subsequent Dawits are numerated accordingly), as Dawit I is reserved for King David of Judah.

		The Eritrean Government has accused Ethiopia for stating clearly that the clarifications given on the Technical Arrangements are not satisfactory to its basic principles of returning to the status quo ante and not rewarding aggression.
		Ethiopia's commitment to the peaceful resolution of the conflict that has been imposed on it by Eritrea is well known.
		From the beginning Ethiopia has called for Eritrea to withdraw its troops from territories they occupied by force and to resolve the border issue peacefully, while reserving her prerogative to exercise her right to self defense.

	Emperors of Ethiopia
		Ethiopia was finally only conquered, briefly, between 1936 and 1941, by Italy, not, significantly, in the 19th century "scramble for Africa," but in the age of totalitarian conquest in the 1930's.
		While Ethiopia had preserved its independence and Christian religion for centuries against Islâm, constantly enduring the depredations of Arab slavers, many, or most, of whose male victims were castrated, many foreign fls now blame and reject Christianity for the Atlantic slave trade which took their ancestors to the New World.
		Ethiopia and her religion thus receive some respect from a source that, in general, one might have expected to be relatively unaware of the country and relatively hostile to the religion.

	Meet Dawit
		We went to King Richard’s Faire this weekend, and initially had to convince Dawit not to be frightened by the costumes and madness.
		Dawit will be 4 years old next week. He will have his first-ever birthday party on Sunday, with “pupcakes” and a pinata. The theme is Superheroes, and this costume, along with a pile of Superman stuff, arrived from Grandma today. We had to pry him out of it to put him to bed.
		Well, he’s not pink, but this is Dawit’s impression of a flamingo. He had just this happy smile plastered on his face almost the entire 2.5 weeks in Wisconsin. Who wouldn’t be happy with a Grandma meeting his demands: tacos for breakfast, Beauty and the Beast 3 times in a row, and minigolf.

		Before making his way to America, Dawit — who was born in Ethiopia of Eritrean and Ethiopian heritage — says he was tortured in Eritrea and Ethiopia because of his national origin, and later tortured in Eritrea for supporting a political movement that was critical of the government.
		During Dawit's immigration hearing, which Kim and Long handled with Chandler's and Vail's supervision, the judge "grilled on every point, argued with students about the law and put them to the test," Vail says.
		Dawit's claim for asylum derived from his nationality and political beliefs, Chandler says.

	The Believer - Dawit Giorgis: An Oral History
		Dawit was born into the ruling elite of Ethiopia; his father was Emperor Haile Sellassie’s first vice-minister of information; and he served in the emperor’s army.
		Dawit is honest enough to date his disillusionment to a period after the pogroms of the 1970s: he voiced no reservations about the Dergue’s methods at the time.
		Comrade Dawit is either too naïve to see what the imperialists are doing, or he is collaborating with them.” In October, Mengistu phoned Dawit and told him, “You are out to create problems, Dawit, and I assure you it is going to stop.” It was the last time they spoke.

		The people of Ethiopia are fed up of the dictatorial and corrupt government of Meles Zenawi and tension is boiling high.

		It is so common to relive old world legends in Ethiopia that it doesn’t seem at all odd when Thomas, the local guide, knocks on the door at four in the morning and says it’s time to see the Ark.
		In Ethiopia, where literacy rates are low and news spreads around family fires, where legends turn into hard fact as fast as barley ferments into local brew, Thomas tells us that Israelis recently tried to capture the Ark of the Covenant but were repelled by the Ethiopian police.
		Emperor Haile Selassie was crowned as regent on November 2, 1930, and ruled Ethiopia as imperial ruler until he was overthrown by the Derg in 1974.

		After the costly, disruptive and destructive 1998-2000 war that took place between Eritrea and Ethiopia, and the standoff that ensued which blocked the 2000-Peace Agreement from reaching its lawful conclusion, the Ethiopian government has instigated a scheme to deplete Eritrean economy and to damage people’s moral to a greater extent.
		The moral defeat that Ethiopia suffered after losing the village of Badme to Eritrea is the major cause for its vindictiveness and retaliatory scheme.
		Anti-poverty campaigners like Bob Geldof deserve to be recognised for their good deeds but as Eritreans we have the duty to bring to light some of the blind spots of the ongoing campaign.

		The report, prepared as a case study within the framework of the African Information Society Initiative, provides a critical examination of the use of information and communication technologies, and their state of development in Ethiopia, with emphasis on the telecommunications, IT and broadcasting infrastructures.
		While the case can be made from a wide range of perspectives (socio-economic, historical, etc.), the approach here is bottom-up, with emphasis on the technological issues, and how the necessity for an open competitive environment arises from technical considerations inherent to modern communication networks.
		The paper outlines the challenges mirroring the past, present and future potential of information and communication technologies for social and economic development, and it argues that information and communication sector could be fostered to achieve economic gains comparable to the current national agricultural output.

		This concert, this nice operation with all the big people in the world meeting to express their nice feelings for the destitute and starving and the dying children and so on, this is just bullshit.
		The subsequent failure of this operation led to a backlash, culminating in the failure to act in Rwanda in 1994 and has led to an indifferent Western response to the acute drought in the Horn of Africa and Kenya this year, the Channel 4 documentary says.
