That is what we have in Ethiopia. Thabks to Melese and Bereket. That is why educated Ethiopians are living their country to serve in other country. that is why the chinese , the Indians, the Arabs.........who cares none for the human violation are rushing to Ethiopia. We will see the end.God is with ethiopa

Ethiopia never misused anti terrorism law all the convict behind the bar are proven terrofying terrorist under the cover of journalist. They did the crime let them do the time.

What is the alert level of the current terrorism there? Now, you start scraping, because I said so.

In Western World, the alert and levels of Terrorism has been outlawed to tackle Foreigners, but not Oppositions that have different point of views, on the Government Agendas.

Just imagine, any Country, let us pick-up America. America has Republic and Democratic Parties, one opposes the other. Even in the Histories of America, the party leaders has been killed or shooted, occasionally since the last several Years. But, that doesn't mean the shooters are Terrorists. They are both stand for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, but not for the DIVIDED STATES OF AMERICA! For this case, whomever believes, and stands to divide Ethiopia and Ethiopians are not only Terrorists, but also committed a very severe in-human crimes. Which are against Natural Laws and Human made Laws.

And also, do you think the American Soldiers will murder and take all the properties and Wealths from other American Citizens, because they are armed and have Weapons to kill????!!!!???? NO! Absolutely NO!!!! But, the TPLF Government did!!!!! It is ridiculous!!! We read even the TPLF's cruel action supporters in this Website.

If you warn and charged Journalists, because they exposed your evil act, which means you are hiding a lots of mass murdered. You will be questioned, soon or later.

Have you seen the Rwanda Man who committed Genocide and hide in Canada for 21 Years and recently the Canadian Government told him, " sorry, we don't hide the mass murderer here ". He got deported, to face charge.

This people, they don't know to who they are talking or what ?
Just tell the EG that all the personal money they have looted will be frozen and no more assistance will be given to them !
International community cannot ignorantly continue to support such a tyranny in the 21st century.

Gobena people like you didn't leave etjhiopia for political but economic reason. So don't over-rate yourself.For those who are those who consider themselves experts they should know that having a different opinion is respected and tolerated in ethiopia. The simple proof for this fact is the so called blogger Eskinder was writing all his inflimatory articles from addis ababa.in most of his articles he wrote from addis Eskinder has villenized the current leaders of the country, glorified the Eritrean government and nobody said or did anything to him, it isonly when he crossed the line and started working with an organisation that is considered terrorist he is arrested. as the saying goes "if it is sauce for the goose it is sauce for the gander" if some subversive activities are considered terrorist by the west there is no reason why it shouldn't be terroris act in any other country. The so called experts opinion remains an opinion based on ignorance of the reality and with a hidden agenda behind it.

Stop the lip service and turn the tap off for this tyrant. Meles' tyranny cannot sustain itself without the generosity of foreign entities like the UN, WB, IMF etc. It would be naive to think that their generosity hasn't lengthened the the life of this oppressive regime. As Archbishop Desmond Tutu said "If you are neutral in situations of injustice you have chosen the side of the oppressor". Time for the world to stop coddling this tyrant.

Professional Journalism or Sectarian Anarchism - Calling for removal of an elected government using violence and anarchy is illegal anywhere in the world. If UN is so sincere, why not they defend Julian Assange, the accused editor in chief and founder of WikiLeaks, a media website which publishes information from whistleblowers. Why not they complain about the injustice done against the peaceful “Occupy America” protesters in the US who are thrown to jail for exercising civil disobedience. The actions taken by the accused individuals in Ethiopia is more grave and have serious negative consequences on the peace and stability of the Ethiopia. Who said that it is legal to use journalism and public media to advocate violence, blood shade and anarchy for political and personal interests.

The thugtator meles knows one language the language of "ghetto drug dealers". As long as he is the judge,general,politician,economist at Arat kilo his way is always -kill, torture,throw to jail any Ethiopian citizen. This lunatic/tyrant doesn't understand normal society's moral ethics. To this midget chimp "patriotism" is non-existing word in his vocabulary.
Meles sells his "soul' for the highest bidder thinking he may enjoy his "loot in hell"
He is beyond lunacy.

Who care about Ethiopia?Only Ethiopians not USA,EU,or China.....Pls let stand for our right.No one bring our right. if we are a man we can pull it ourself.All country espeially EU and USA looking for only the goverment stick with them not about human right or people quetion.They need colonize the goverment of the country and he's colonize his people.We should solve our problem ourself.
Long live for Ethiopia and Ethiopian

nazret

viva meles and epdrf

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!

John john,
you are one of those ascaris..the world is getting a better picture blood suckers like you and chronies like you. time will come when we see you dragged on the street of Ethiopia...MOT LEWOYANE ENA JELEWOCHU!

anti-terrorism
Manipulation of any person or group of persons fear (the emotion of terror, hence TERRORism) in order to gain obedience/forceful agreement, or accomplish a certian objective.
The United States media constantly throws propaganda of how everyone in the middle east is evil and embeds the word 'terrorist' into everyone's minds from the day they are born as 'evil'. Then they use it to scare us into allowing them to bomb millions of innocent lives to ashes in the Middle East, then take over for whatever purpose.

BUT WAIT! I think I've hit something here:
but right now like melese zenawe
terrorism
The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons.

"They should not face criminal proceedings for carrying out their legitimate work, let alone be severely punished.”
Totally agree with the above statement. If anyone expresses his speech or writes article based on facts without exaggeration and distortion,then he or she is entitled to do so. But in this case,When the two illegal swedish journalists crossed the border into Ethiopia, don't we as Ethiopians, have the right to put them in prison? At least, we respect their human rights. How many Mexicans have been tortured and murdered while they were found entering illegally into the US? How many of them being beaten and send back to Mexico? Come on be realistic!!!
This guy talks about freedom of assembly: what a joker! Where was he when the Occupy Wall Steet journal have been harassed from public spaces and chased away from every state. We have seen it all.
Ever since the White man touched the African continent, we lost our dignity, development, friendship, Love, Moral, everything. Some are surrendered and become more submissive and Bow for White Man.
What ever they said, and whatever they write is becoming our Encyclopedia, reference quote. Some can not even analyze what they read, simply justify it and accept it. Some brains have been manipulated and programmed without even they are noticing it.
Wake up my brothers and sisters stand up for Truth, Wisdom, For Oneness. Don't let the Enemy Divide Us!!!!! Learn From Iraq, The One Iraqi People used to be today they are in multi Groups. Same in Egypt,
God Help Us! Save that Country!!
So Sad!!!

John John, I have been always following your comment regarding Ethiopian Govt. And I know you are one of the members of the ruling party. Otherwise, you would have made a true comment BESIHTET Once in a Million. There is always a begining and ending of everything. When that comes, I don't want to be you and your likes. Tell the truth sometimes.
Ewnet manin Gedele?

What is freedom of speech to you?to lie is not FOS.As a journalist,one has to serve truth.Show the reality underground.Most Ethiopian journalist,I cannot say all, in both sides are doing either for money or to get recognition by saying what most people wish to say.It has nothing to do with the Nobel profession Journalism.Please give or say to the people what they deserve , the truth.Balanced truth.Showing both angles.Having courage to show what has been done and what has not.
God have mercy on us

Mr the expert if you are really concerned by the crimes of Human Right Violation comitted by the Tyrant Zenawi .Time to take the proper sanctions against him .It concerns also some evil State Department officials and Western Authorities in the name of the stability of the Horn of Africa let this blood sucker commit his usual crimes .Condemning the Syrian Despot it's a good thing but what about African tyrants your friend Zenawi and Co .Tebtabaw where the hell have you seen your Leba master and his looter Agazis including their kersam Bandas representing a legally elected government .Your leba master along his SS agazis is a simple criminal who by stealing the elections impose a state of terror on the Ethiopian Peoples .The Free Press Journalists strown in prison by your leba master did only applicate their legal rights garanted by the Constitution drafted and applicated by himself . They did accomplish their job of informing the public .Actually the security council gives its support of the Arabic League decision apealing Bashar El Assad,by finally accepting the Wills of the Syrain Peoples to step down .SO WHAT DESERVED TOO THE CRIMINAL ZENAWI AND HIS BANDIT AGAZIS !!!!!

Tabo

At least be the person who afraid GOD. And please leave this lie and stop saying that EG is elected. There is nothing you can change about those monsters who are still taking my family's home. I don't want to say any thing but you will see the truth is next to your door.

You know what? I some time come to ponder and ask myself "why is it always Meles has his way of averting any serious international attention?" and the proper answer is "he can and knows how to play the game". Such article is a bluff and will not make an Iota of a change. He might go unnoticed even if there is a disappearance of such journalists. Meles is a jolly good boy to the west regarding their "strategical interest and war against terrorists". No one will dare take a serious action or threaten him for his brutal actions and new laws. It might make a difference only when we take the good fight in our hands in unity and purpose. Simply the diaspora society if becomes serious, have a good card to play. Let us start with this and hopefully grow to a big scale.

Ethiopians: As long as you put two white people in jail for whatever reason the whole of UN, governmental and non governmental organisation of the west will acuse you of anything under the sun. Do you realy believe they care of those tribal or regional journalists imprisoned in Ethiopia? NO!!! You better pardon those two Swedish fools.

Dear kidi and john john2
To be honest with you I'm not a member of ruling or opposition party from the hell. I'm realistic man who believe in-fact on ground rather than coruptrate media propaganda and MYTHS lets leave that to old timer polotician who think they can manuver everyone based on high profile midea for their owen intrest.

@Respect and Responsibility [Visitor]
Who are you to judge other people?
Let them write what they want and let the people judge them if they are right or wrong. Not you mr.CADRE. Cadres don't know respect and responsibility.

Who is Meles friend with nowadays?

Chinese come to exploit Ethiopian resources (not tgrayan, because they are not allowed, ofcourse

Indian Karuturi, bring all his family more than 25000 indians (to enslave in his farm) and sooner they will get married to your sweeties and have the same rights like you Ethiopians

UN, USA broken their contact with Meles and now the new master is....?

Where is Ethiopia marching to?
Noone knows

The United Nations International COVENANT ON CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS'Article 19
1. Everyone shall have the right to hold opinions without interference.
2. Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression; this right shall include freedom to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice.
3. The exercise of the rights provided for in paragraph 2 of this article carries with it special duties and responsibilities. It may therefore be subject to certain restrictions, but these shall only be such as are provided by law and are necessary:
For respect of the rights or reputations of others;
For the protection of national security or of public order (ordre public), or of public health or morals.
Article 20
1.Any propaganda for war shall be prohibited by law.
2.Any advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence shall be prohibited by law. '

It is clear beyond doubt, that the alien imposed federation of secession is a lawless rebel entity of minority alien puppets who wish to impose their views of propaganda by force at the expense of the Ethiopian people and freedom loving nations.

"Each provision in this Chapter has a precedent, either in Ethiopian traditions, or in well-established constitutional precedents abroad. No less than 29 articles have been inserted in the Constitution to provide for the protection of the essential liberties and rights of the people. Thus, We have provided that "no one shall be denied the equal protection of the laws"; that "there shall be no discrimination amongst Ethiopian subjects with respect to the enjoyment of all civil rights";that "there shall be no interference with the exercise in accordance with the law of the rites of any religion or creed by residents of the Empire";that "freedom of speech and of the press is guaranteed throughout the Empire, in accordance with the law";that "correspondence shall be subject to no censorship except in time of declared national emergency." We have, further confirmed our practice that every person accused of a crime shall be presumed innocent until proven guilty and that no one shall be imprisoned for debt, except in case of legally proved fraud." Selected Speeches of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, page 406

"Unlike many countries of the world, We have provided the right to any resident of the Empire to bring suit against the Government or ministry, department, agency or instrumentality thereof, for wrongful acts resulting in substantial damage. Likewise, everyone in the Empire shall have the right to present petitions to Us.
So important have We considered these guarantees of Human Rights and Fundamental Liberties that, in the Revised Constitution, We have stipulated that not only the courts but, in particular, Ourselves, shall at all times assure and protect these Human Rights. They constitute principles which no branch of the Government, be it the Executive, Legislative or Judiciary, can transgress and which, in consequence, must be placed under the particular protection of the Sovereign Himself. We Ourselves will always be ready to act positively to ensure respect for these rights by all branches and every official of the Government. Thus, the lowliest subject of the Empire, the poorest as well as the richest, even the convict in prison, has always the assurance that the Sovereign is at all times vigilant in the protection of his rights and fundamental liberties." HIM Negus Haile Selassie

"It is not necessary to enumerate countries where the people and entire country having lost unity, spiritual or otherwise, have become playgrounds and laughing stocks of outsiders. The historical events of certain countries bear witness to this fact. In our own times, there are those expansionists who by shedding blood, desire to achieve their ambition and by dismembering themselves they are seen as tools for alien interests. Our people from Ethiopia shed blood, to save them from disintegration. Those personalities who believe in freeing a country by secession are selfish and prey to outsiders. We will not accept their motives." Selected Speeches of HIM Negus Haile Selassie I, page 426

"The aim of those leaders that is based on ambition for power and personal gain is one with no firm foundation and will, consequently, crumble easily." Selected Speeches of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, page 471

Long Live the Constitutional Monarchy!
Long Live the Charter of the United Nations!
Fire burn down the neo-colonial witchcraft star of secession
Tinsae! Moa Anbessa!
The Lion of Judah shall throw off the yoke of oppression, and set the captives free!
Long Live Ethio-Eritrean oneness!
Long Live Independent Ethiopia!

A sign of potentially turning into HITLERIAN TERROR is when one country has a 100% of its military higher ups from the same ethnic/linguistic group as the regime's executives of Ethiopia's 4% of the population.

The pen of Eskinder Nega was not entirely focused on critics of this regime. It was of a person of a rational, celebral broad thinker, an excellent writer, a persistent, courageous, selfless, patient Ethiopian son, father and husband and a better half of his victimized competant journalist wife; and a father to a baby boy whose freedom during pregnancy was equaly arrested as his parents were.

What is then the meaning of terror in practise? Is not the torture they suffered of a type of terror?

-To co-operate in directing/agreeing to write BEKA/ENOUGH on walls might violate a minimal charge on graffiti writting if there is such municipal law in Ethiopia; but should not warrant a conviction and sentencing of life imprisonment. There is a video with BEKA theamed music out there. Are the artist also violating ANTI TERRORISM LAW? Is that not more of a powerful tool that reaches millions than limited and scattered graffitti?

-Their conversation to cut off communication and electric powers, if true, still should have a degree of penality but does not warranty a verdict and sentencing of life imrisonment. It never took action and the bottom line, a communication among less than five people to discus such matter and its potential next step would have involved several other people to carry out the plot. One important common factor these three journalists share is the daring to openly exercise their proffessional as well as individual right to express their opinion.

Dear nazret.com Editors,
Is it possible that you post Ethiopia's ANTI-TERRORISM LAW # AND CONTENT and what the judiciary claims to have found as evidence?

Oh please! UN, we know Journalists, Oppositions and pretty much everybody who opposes the looting leeches, Zenawi & Co are labelled as Terrorists and shoved in jail or driven out of the country. You don't have to give lip service on what the dictators in Ethiopia MUST or MUST NOT do, rather, you should take action in terms isolating the dictators, cutting off their life line or zip it. We know you want evil for Ethiopia/Ethiopians/Africans for that matter, that is why you've always sustained puppet dictators regardless & keep pumping aid dollar & what not up to their necks so that they could buy weapons, stifle dissent. Invite poodle dictators to your G whatever meetings as manikins. Hypocrisy at its best!

As for journalists, the central purpose of journalism is to provide citizens with accurate/truthful, reliable information they need to function in a free society, only the society in Ethiopia is far from FREE. If Dictators in Ethiopia think journalists in Ethiopia should only be there to serve or prop them up & lie then they have another thing coming.

... One of the core principles of journalism is to tell the TRUTH and journalists first LOYALTY is to CITIZENS, which Zenawi & co are having a hard time with. If there is misconduct, the dictators should outline what they had done, verify their crimes and charge them appropriately. We have't seen people losing their lives, being terrorized, property damaged etc as direct result of these journalist's actions but we have seen bombs going off (planted by Zenawi & Co to accuse other's), citizens being terrorized, killed in masses, jailed, displaced, citizens indirectly sold off to China, India, Arabia, you name it by dictators in Ethiopia. Terrorists are the last thing these journalists are!

Frankly, if we go by the correct, direct definition of Terrorism/Terrorist then none other than Zenawi & Co top the list.

What Ethiopians in Ethiopia have to know always is that the English type of so called western i.e. western European aid was/is and will not work to make self reliance. Instead it is serving them as secret tools to keep the people under their power/feet in the name of aid.

It is clear now that Ethiopians back home including the brave leaders know very well that fair trade, co-operation with win win relation and respect are the only way with foreign relations. Only the citizens in Ethiopia are the decisive factors with hard work and smart approach to the matters concerning the nation. Ethiopians are doing that now. Ethiopians back home never been so hard working, wise, smart and self confidence since long time. The nations is moving towards the best destination in the tropic where a nations holds the biggest and best highland and as a result gets the best whether throughout the year. For Instance Addis ababa is the only capital city on earth has almost the same tempreture throught teh year: 19-23 degree. It is the same to the entire highland. This is the best gift to Ethiopia from nature. Look at Europe, North America and the likes in the winter as well as throughout the year. Loot bat teh arab desert.

China, Japan, Korea, India and Germany are and will be the best and closest ally to Ethiopia for many years to come. England and its mouth shit mainly the English speaking Immigrants nations are busy using many secretive and open tactics damaging the Ethiopian Image, creating conflicts between the citizens, blackmailing the current best leaders Ethiopia ever has; with goal to stop development there.

Remember: The English types of white men don't like to see development in Africa including Ethiopia. They hate to see black people to have own matters by themselves and benefit from it without the white man having around to act as master to the salves the way they are doing for the last 500 years.

Again: the Ethiopian heart, mind and face is towards the East where the sun is rising and with its day, sunshine and warmth coming towards Ethiopia. Anything the English type is doing to affect Ethiopia will not work anymore. Instead it will back clash and they will lose Ethiopia as the only trusted and long term ally. Other Africans are colonized and enslaved by them and they will never been forgiven and forgotten generations to come. They need to stop shiting about human right in Ethiopia while the nation is fighting against poverty and backwardness to eradicate them.

However;
What about the human rights of the mass poor in the class society in England and greedy ones in USA and the likes? They need to talk and do about themselves rather than coming to Ethiopia in the name of UN which is lately became the west shit mouth.

I guess you can say that the anti terrorist law is a gift from haven to those Wayane who wanted to rule Ethiopia without any opposition. The sad part is the un, the USA and others are looking the other way. The Wayane are becoming so predictable you can actually know where and when they are oing to use it. The Eritrean government and other small less power countries are consistently reminding the un are not doing their job to protect innocent countries and people without any success. But the un or the us will not ignore the countries and organization forever.

A UN employee means not UN itself.
UN itself is the leached dog which cannot walk far unless and some few dogma old rednecks allow them to do so.
1/ UN were there while Ethiopia was terrorized by one tribe from north to south and from east to west.

2/ UN was there while slavery was massing the whole world' human being until today.

3/ UN were there when the Falkland Island was driven by the British and captured from Argentina.

4/ The UN were there when the Eritreans were demolishing the entire Ethiopia by the help of Italians and US.

5/ UN were there when the French ignited fire flared and the whole entire Rwandese were massacring each other.

6/ UN were there when all French colonized African countries were burning in hell.

7/UN was there when Vietnam was attacked by US.

8/ UN was there when Russians was invading Georgia.

9/ UN were there when Iraq was invaded by US.

10/ UN were there when the Chinese were controlling Tibetans.

11/ UN was there while the entire Europeans colonizing the whole entire Africa.

12/ UN were there while the entire Palestinians have nowhere to go or to live as human being.

13/ UN were there while the Zimbabweans are suffering right now because of their trying to retain their country as their own mother land.

14/ UN was there while only the developing country leaders coming before UN criminal court (no body from rich countries)
15/ UN was there when the Ethipians are trying to biuld electric power for their country to save the live of the sturving people, while the DR Leaky's group trying to stop us from biulding life saving development.
16/ UN was there while the British ordered Ethiopians not to use their own God given river for the sake of Egyptians.
17/ UN was there while millions of Philopino girls sold and exploited for sex business.
18/ UN was there when Alshabab was choping the young kids hands and stoning young girls to death in Somalia.
So this Organization must be diapeared from the world unless it has done the right job as UN.
So who is UN? UN itself need in criminal court.
