German hostages in 'good health': Ethiopia rebels

ADDIS ABABA
— Ethiopian rebels said German tourists they seized last week were safe and blamed the government for the incident in which five Europeans were also killed on the slopes of a famed volcano.

Addis Ababa had blamed the region's worst attack on tourists in years on gunmen armed by arch-foe Eritrea but a rebel group claiming to fight for the Afar region and its people said the bloodshed occurred when government soldiers attacked one of its patrols.

The rebel Afar Revolutionary Democratic Unity Front (ARDUF) also said its fighters had killed 16 Ethiopian troops, and wounded or captured others, in a statement received Monday.

"Those German nationals who were taken together with the Ethiopian soldiers are safe and (in) good health," ARDUF said.

The German foreign ministry has said two of its nationals are missing after gunmen attacked a group of tourists in Ethiopia's remote Afar region last week, but the rebels did not specify how many people it was holding.

ARDUF are an Arteran trained Arteran armed separatist group that targets civilians in Ethiopia. This Arteran group admits it carried out the attacks on the civilians and kidnapped the other four.

This proves that Bereket Simon was right when he blamed Artera.

The Arteran government is very stupid. Did they think an Arteran trained rebel group taking the blame would take pressure of the Arteran government?

Thats like The American government saying it has nothing to do with Blackwater when Blackwater kills innocent Iraqi children.

ARDUF are Arteran PERIOD.

I have run out of patience. Its about time Meles send those new drones of ours for a little cross border shopping. Bomb Artera now. They are just a dirty little sand village needing a nuking.

We Ethiopians are trying to build our country but the Agamidos will never move on or let go of us. They are mentally deranged i tell you.

Eritrea should be annexed, as it is not a legitimate country anyway. These criminals will eventually make the grave mistake of killing or capturing American citizens, which would them for death by the U.S. Ethiopia needs to erradicate these Eritrean cockroaches from Ethiopian soil and show them that they are nothing more than poorly armed goons! TO HELL WITH ERITREA: PSEUDO-
TERRORIST STATE!
