		Meles said up to 4,000 Islamists were killed and twice that number wounded in the fiercest phase of the war over the first four days when they were routed by Ethiopian armour and air power.
		Meles said that the decisive issue in preventing a return of Somalia to the anarchy that has scarred it for more than 15 years would be whether the interim government was able to complete a process of clan reconciliation.
		Meles said the Islamist rise was less a religious movement and more a cover for the dissatisfaction of several clans.

		Meles expelled over 70,000 innocent Eritreans and Ethiopians of Eritrean origin including unaccompanied children and the elderly without any legal process and confiscated their properties just because in his own words ‘he didn’t like the colour of their eyes’.
		Meles Zenawi has squandered 3 billion dollars on the war against Eritrea at a time when 15 million Ethiopians were at the verge of dying from hunger.
		Meles is the only leader in the modern world who has rejected with impunity a final and binding ruling of a boundary commission.

		Meles said availability of resources and weak implementation capacities were the two most important challenges Ethiopia has been facing in the efforts to scale-up sustainable development and poverty reduction programs.
		Indeed, Meles added, unless we can overcome the bottlenecks that we have encountered and massively scale-up our programs, it will be difficult to sustain the good results of the past year or two.
		Meles was optimistic that there would be a vertical increase of development assistance to Ethiopia both in quantity and quality.

		When Meles and Isaias raised their friendship to a higher ground of co-operation to the extent of even fighting Yemen over Hannish Islands in 1995, one major hurdle to their objective had to be removed.
		On the Assab front, the delegates Meles Zenawi sent to The Hague took the jurists by surprise, stating that the 60-km wide territory of Eritrea should be measured from the dry coast, and not 12 miles in to the waters of the Red Sea.
		Meles, who himself was reported to have committed a war crime along the Tsorena Front by launching an ill-timed offensive despite opposition from military commanders, was actually rewarding his own type in the likes of Captain Teshome Tenkolu.

	What are the Real Reasons Why Meles Decided to Accept the Border Ruling?

		Meles issues a tough line on Eritrea not because he wants to, but because he is forced to.

	Meles Zenawi & daily war alarms
		When Meles was trying to fool us that it is an age of globalization and borders would soon be meaningless, he was not ignorant of the public secret that nations would fight waters wars in the next 50 years.
		Meles, who now tells us that Egypt has an army trained for jungle warfare, was busy tearing down the Ethiopian Defense Forces re-built at enormous cost even as recent as the yester-year war with Eritrea.
		This glaring truth alone dismisses Meles Zenawi's boisterous response to Egypt as "self-serving," and quite dangerous to the survival, and re-emergence of Ethiopia as an economically and politically viable nation.

	Ethiopia's Meles warns Eritrea not to attack
		Meles Zenawi told Reuters in an interview he hoped Eritrea would accept his offer of dialogue to ease tensions over the implementation of a peace deal ending their 1998-2000 war, but said Eritrean leaders were capable of "unthinkable" actions.
		Meles and Isayas were once close allies whose guerrilla movements united to topple former Marxist military ruler Mengistu Haile Mariam in 1991, clearing the way for Eritrea's independence from Ethiopia in 1993.
		Meles said it was up to Eritrea to accept its offer of dialogue to break the impasse over the frontier and to agree to meet with a special U.N. envoy appointed to soothe tensions.

	SudanTribune article : Meles has failed to deliver democracy to Ethiopians
		Therefore, I believe that any hateful propaganda should be directed toward Meles’ deeds and his leadership style, not at him personally or at his Tigre people.
		To say that Meles’ regime has not delivered on what it promised to deliver to all Ethiopians, would not be an exaggeration or would not be going extreme, it would just be saying the facts.
		Was it not Meles’ regime that murdered more than 426 Anyuak men on Dec. 13, 2003 in front of their wives and children just because they happened to oppose his policies in Gambella region?

		It was to that end, Meles Zenawi, the leader of the apartheid regime of Ethiopia, was seen performing his dancing ritual and blabbered the acceptance of the ruling of the Boundary Commission “in principle”, with “dialogue”, and “give and take” as a package.
		Meles must not be a good student of geometry and it is high time for him to understand that a “straight line” can only be “straight” and famous “Straight Line” was straight from the ages and to the Eritreans it can only be “straight” for generation to come.
		Meles must not be bright if he thought he could outsmart or outfox the very Eritrean leadership, the very individuals, who taught him the ABCs (HA.HU.HI.) aspects of his life and his organization not to mention the opening of the gates of Menelik Palace and letting him in.

		Meles was speaking days after United Nations peacekeepers said recent restrictions imposed by Eritrea prevented them from guaranteeing that there was no renewed military build-up along the border separating the Ethiopian and Eritrean armies.
		Meles Zenawi also made the leaders of the Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF, governing) giddy by accepting to meet the opposition on 2 October while the EPRDF council had stated the previous day that such discussions were not on the agenda.
		Meles was feted by Western leaders in the past as part of a new generation of African leaders, but has seen his democratic credentials called into question over the election wrangling and the handling of protests.

		The above fact was crystal clear to Meles and, given his rather untenable position with regard to his approach to and handling of the whole Eritrean debacle (especially after the rift in the TPLF leadership), a huge cause of concern.

		Meles' propaganda machine is swiftly set in motion, Meles “briefs” diplomats in Addis and tries to explain what is meant by “in principle” and by “give and take”.

		Sarcasm aside, the real reason Meles Zenawi murdered the 40 innocent defenseless Ethiopians and detained thousands, is because he got away with all previous violations of human rights, massacres, murders, genocides and defiance of international law and arbitration.
		On May 2002, Meles Zenawi’s forces massacred over 100 people in Awassa, his forces committed illegal acts against innocent citizens who were demonstrating against a change in the administrative status of Awassa.
