Ethiopia 's Genocide of the Anuak Tribe Broadens After December 13 Massacre By Doug McGill The McGill Report (The following article appeared on May 6 in the Rochester Post-Bulletin of Rochester MN ADDIS ABABA Ethiopia A genocide in western Ethiopia that began last December with a massacre of some 400 Anuak tribe members has broadened into widespread attacks by Ethiopian military troops against more than a dozen Anuak villages in the western Ethiopian province of Gambella , according to Anuak refugees and humanitarian aid groups. Scorched-earth raids carried out from January through April have destroyed a dozen Anuak villages in Gambella, refugees said. The raids have driven more than 10,000 Anuak into refugee camps in neighboring Sudan and Kenya , according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. While the December 13 massacre in Gambella town, the capital of Gambella province, was directed only at educated male Anuak, the new phase of the genocide has seen women and children killed, hundreds of Anuak homes and fields burned, and gang rapes of dozens of girls and women, according to Anuak refugees living in Pocalla Sudan , and Nairobi Kenya Fleeing earlier episodes of ethnic cleansing, more than 2,000 Anuak refugees have immigrated to

Africa /Ethiopia ETHIOPIA History and Government History: The EPRDF continued to experience resistance in some parts of the country, mainly from elements of Ethiopia’s ethnic patchwork (Afar, Issa and Gurgureh, as well as ethnic Somalis) and from the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF), which seeks independence for their province in the west of the country. Of greater long-term significance was the decision of the northern province of Eritrea – previously independent until 1952, when the United Nations merged it into Ethiopia – to secede from Ethiopia. The Eritrean People’s Liberation Front (EPLF), the dominant force in the province and previously allied to the EPRDF, declared independence in May 1993. The Ethiopians acquiesced in the decision, despite the loss of their entire coastline. Relations between the two were initially good and a number of economic and security agreements were signed. It was not to last. By May 1995, the transitional administration and a short-lived constituent assembly, both of which were dominated by the EPRDF, had agreed a new constitution and were ready to hold national elections. The EPRDF won a massive victory – including all 92 seats in Addis Ababa – in elections for the new Council of People’s Representatives; Meles Zenawi took over as Prime Minister. The result was repeated at the most recent poll held in August 2000: Meles Zenawi was endorsed to serve a second term as premier, while the presidency was assumed by Girma Wolde-Giyorgis.

The story of the Axum Obelisk's imminent return could set a precedent in the international community. The British Museum is once again under pressure to return to Athens the Elgin Marbles, a group of statues originally part of the frieze adorning the Parthenon, which a British ambassador removed (some say salvaged) in 1801. The Louvre collections largely consist of works seized by Napoleon. Victims of the Third Reich are still trying to reclaim art works the Nazis pilfered. "The people of Axum, and of Ethiopia as a whole, have not forgotten its loss," wrote Professor Richard Pankhurst, co-founder of the Return Our Obelisk Committee, to the Roman newspaper

ETHIOPIA: CPJ concerned about government intervention in journalists' association February 19, 2004 TO: His Excellency Prime Minister Meles Zenawi Office of the Prime Minister P.O. Box 1031 Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Via facsimile: 251-155-2020 Your Excellency: The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) is deeply concerned by the Ethiopian government’s intervention in the affairs of the Ethiopian Free Press Journalists Association (EFJA), an independent organization dedicated to promoting press freedom and protecting the rights of journalists. The Ethiopian Justice Ministry suspended the EFJA from conducting regular activities on November 10, 2003, because the organization failed to submit a certified audit of its budget for the last three years. The budget report is required of all civic organizations. The suspension came despite EFJA’s attempt to engage a chartered accountant to perform the audit at that time. Justice Ministry officials allowed EFJA’s executive committee to convene a meeting in mid-November to elect an auditor for the organization’s finances. The meeting was canceled, however, over a dispute between the EFJA executive committee and the Justice Ministry concerning the meeting’s agenda and whether or not government officials should observe the proceedings, local sources said. The dispute culminated on December 2, 2003, when the ministry banned the EFJA executive committee from administering the organization’s affairs.

Ethiopia Response to Information Request Number: ETH00004.NRB Date: 14 December 1999 Subject: Information on the Ethiopian Netsanet Democratic Party (ENDP) Ethiopia From: INS Resource Information Center, Washington, D.C. Keywords: ENDP/Netsanet/Ethiopia Query: Who are the leaders of the Kenya-based Ethiopian Netsanet Democratic Party, or ENDP? Have any of them been arrested in Kenya or Ethiopia? Has ENDP been involved in any military or terrorist activities? Response: A comprehensive search of numerous databases turned up no reference to the ENDP or Netsanet more generally. In addition, multiple search engines and searches through several dozen African web sites found nothing (except for the Ethiopian National Democratic Party, a different, unrelated ENDP). The information provided below, which may be of use, discusses agents of the Ethiopian government which target political opponents in exile in Africa. A group known as Hager Fiqir, made up of Ethiopian government agents and others, were reported to target political opponents in exile. They are said to operate in South Africa, Kenya and other countries. An ethnic Oromo resident of Johannesburg was kidnapped, detained, and beaten up at a Hager Fiqir office in January 1999 after attending a meeting of the Oromo community in which speakers denounced human rights violations against Ethiopians (ION 3 Apr. 1999). Ethnic Oromos have accused the Kenyans of allowing the Ethiopian government to target Oromos in Kenya. In Kenya in 1992, Jatani Ali, an Oromo liberation leader, was killed in Nairobi. In August this year, the Ethiopian embassy in Nairobi in conjunction with the Hager Fiqir is alleged to have planned to have Oromo intellectuals killed or abducted and returned to Ethiopia. There are also accusations that persons close to the Ethiopian government have joined the ranks of the UNHCR branch office in Nairobi and are working to block assistance to Oromo refugees (BBC 27 Nov. 1999).

MATERNITY CLINIC IN LAFACIISE, ETHIOPIA Joint Project by ETWA - DSN - OSMTH - Wilde Ganzen. Status report January 2002 BACKGROUND: The region of Lafaciisse is located in the Somali State (Region 5) of the Federal Republic of Ethiopia. The region has been the theatre of strife between Somalia and Ethiopia, has remained as a buffer zone and is grossly underdeveloped. The inhabitants are ethnic Somalians, who have little contact with outsiders (the only Ethiopians seen so far are soldiers). The population of Lafaciisse and surrounding villages is about 35,000, of which 2/3 are women and children. Perinatal mortality is very high. The nearest hospital is in Jijiga, a 2 hours journey from Lafaciisse by jeep. NEEDS: Clearly there is a need for a maternity clinic, adequate support and improved general sanitation.. ACTORS: DSN : Development agency run by expatriate Somalis and ethnic Somalis in the European Union. Proviision of administrative support and on-site control of progress, especially of construction. Local contacts, relationship with clan elders and regional government. ETWA : Development agency run by the personnel of the European Patent Office. Provision of technical and financial support, coordination on building and annex facilities and related technologies (water tanks, sanitation).

Media Release 05 March 2004 IFJ and IPI Criticise Ethiopian Government Over Lack of Transparency in Media Bill Drafting Two of the world’s leading press freedom groups, the International Press Institute (IPI) and the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) have criticised the failure of the Ethiopian government to inform the domestic media, civil society and the international community of crucial amendments to the draft press law, as well as set-out a transparent legislative process for the law. According to information provided to IPI and IFJ, the Ethiopian Minister of Information, Bereket Simon indicated on 27 February that he intends to submit the draft press law to the Council of Ministers by 5 March. As a result, unless the newly amended law is provided for external comment, there will be no discussion of the law until the bill reaches parliament. “The entire process for the passage of the bill now appears shrouded in almost total secrecy,” said Johann P. Fritz, IPI Director. “The Ethiopian government appears determined to push the law through without additional comment. It suggests that many of the law’s discriminatory sections have been retained. The Ethiopian government should show good faith and publish the amended law for further comment before going ahead.” “The failure to allow public comment will undermine the credibility of the process and weaken the law,” said Aidan White, IFJ General Secretary. “In this case, more than most, it is vital to have open government.”
