Breaking: The Sultan of the Afars of Ethiopia Ahmed Alimiran Hanfare, opposes Ethiopia’s plans to wage war on Eritrea and annex Assab. “This is not our war. Once again, ordinary Afars are sent to fight and die for the political gains of others.
“The Afars are the most disadvantaged and economically neglected ethnic group in Ethiopia. They should not be sent, nor should they go to a war they have no part of.”
Warmongers speak loudly….. they intend to conquer, but never of who will bury the dead. They do not tell us who will care for the soldier returning without a leg, the mother mourning her son, or the children left without a father. Nor do they answer for the pastoral families stripped of their livestock and their way of life.
