Why I accuse the Amhara & Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinians of Racism – Answer to Berhan Tsehai

By: Muhammad Shamsaddin Megalommatis

[ Posted On: 2008-09-10 ]

Sometimes it is useful to stop the regular flow of planned work and accept the challenge of a mail, a letter of protestation. I believe it is useful for all those who are not specialized in the historical and political realities of Eastern Africa to know why I systematically accuse the Amhara & Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinian elites – and a large portion of the two ethno-religious groups of racism, or more particularly of institutional racism.

It is true that, although I expanded on many side aspects of this phenomenon, Africa's most excruciating and impermissible racist state ideology and pseudo-historical dogma, I never presented a comprehensive list of the constituent elements of the Amhara & Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinian Institutional Racism. A reader's mail offers therefore the excellent opportunity. It is practically impossible to exhaust within the limits of a single article a subject so vast that would truly need an encyclopedia to properly address the issue. There will therefore be a series of articles, the present being merely the first. I will start by publishing the protestation – mail I received from Mr. Berhan Tsehai; I publish it as I received it, without the slightest editing.

A Reader Protests – Mr. Berhan Tsehai's Mail

Hello Dr. Muhammad,

I hope everything is well. The reason i am contacting you is because you referred to me as an "some of Africa's most repugnant racists" in your recent article. My name is Berhan Tsehai and someone brought this article to my attention. With all do respect doctor you don't know anything about me to make such an outrageous charge. I am just emailing you to ask you what reason do you have to give me such a label?

I hope to hear from you,

Berhan Tsehai

A Preliminary Response

In truth, I did not refer to Mr. Berhan Tsehai, personally, in these terms. More specifically, in my article published a few days ago under title 'Anuak Land Hit by Floods and Abandoned by the Apprentice Magician Mr. Obang Metho' (http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/72747), I stated the following:

"This shameful use of Christianity by the racist political morons of 'Ethiopianism', Hitler's children in Africa, is the tombstone of Obang Metho and his pro-Anuak activism.

Mr. Metho will speak in front of some of Africa's most repugnant racists, the likes of Mamo Muchie, Abraha Belai, Alemayehu G. Mariam, Abebe Gelaw, Fekade Mariam, Berhan Tsehai, Sioum Gebeyehou, Leoul Mekonen, Abebe Gebre-Tsadik, Enndelbu Worku, Zenebe Tamirat, Lulit Mesfin, Mikael Deribe, Wolde Michael Meshesha, Hagos Berhe, Tedla Asfaw, Mekonnen Alemayehu, Melaku Terefe, Girma Kassa, Abebe Bogale, Wondimu Mekonnen, Yilama Bekele, Girma Aweke, Sebsebie Abera, Kinfu Assefa, Teodros Kiros, Meron Agonafer, Mulugeta Mindaye, Mengistu Yemane, Takele Argaw, Melaku Mekonen, Yami Getachew, Fisseha Abebe, Elfneh Sileshi, Dagnea Teshome, Berhanu Kebede, Mistre Haile Selassie, Samuel Berhanu, Teklemichael Abebe Sahlemariam, Lischan Gizaw, Bedilu Tekle, Kifle Mulat, Melkie Demissie, Wudineh Zenebe, Elizabeth Demissie, Muluneh Yohannes, Mimi Tamrat, Merid Bekele, Endashaw Worku, Kale Negash, and Tewodros Asfaw".

In fact, I selected indicatively many names among an earlier list set up – on criminal purpose (the prolongation of the 'Ethiopian' tyranny) by Obang Metho – and mentioned these names under the political characterization 'racist political morons of 'Ethiopianism', Hitler's children in Africa'. The statement is very clear; it implies that 'Ethiopianism' is a racist ideology.

Before expanding on the subject, I want to go back to Mr. Berhan Tsehai's mail. In his broken English, he denies the characterization, thinking that nothing makes of him a racist; he then asks the reason.

I would immediately withdraw him from the list, if he only stated that he rejects the original fact that made me define him as such, namely his adherence into the racist ideology of 'Ethiopianism'.

It is therefore assumed that Mr. Berhan Tsehai does not understand the racist nature of 'Ethiopianism'. This is nothing new; Nazi Germans, Stalinist Communists and many other followers and members of the world's most repugnant tyrannies and totalitarian ideologies customarily denied the autocratic and dictatorial nature of the systems they fervently believed in and devotedly served. Self-knowledge is not any easy task.

I will expand further on, but before that, I want to establish some parallels and offer constructive bibliography to partly help Mr. Berhan Tsehai understand the nature of 'Ethiopianism'.

'Ethiopianism' – a Racist Ideology Promoted by Kinijit and Ginbot-7

There are two main political formations competing in defense of 'Ethiopianism', and accusing Meles Zenawi of damaging it because of his practices: Kinijit and Ginbot-7.

Mr. Berhan Tsehai may be closer to one of them but the differences are secondary; easily people move from one to the other, according to the direction of the wind – which helps pocketing funds from all sorts of dark source. Quite indicatively, I mention the notorious Muluneh Yohannes, another racist activist who moved from Kinijit to Ginbot-7 only a few months ago.

I do not know Mr. Berhan Tsehai personally, but I have monitored for long his meager publications. If he belongs to Ginbot-7, he will have to wait for the forthcoming articles in which I will provide readers with an analysis of this terrorist organization's vision and mission statements, a criticism of their 'core values and fundamental principles' and of some of their press releases. Simple textual analysis will reveal the racist nature of that party.

If now Mr. Berhan Tsehai happens to support Kinijit (he had once supported Obang Metho's 'criticism' of Kinijit, suggesting it was constructive), then he will be satisfied with the textual analysis of Kinijit's fundamental texts that I published only before a year. For anyone having doubts about Kinijit being a racist party, the following titles and links are necessary:

1. 'Kinijit: the unrepentable 'Ethiopian' mendicants'
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/35459

2. 'Kinijit: the Abyssinian Racism Re-instated'
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/35494

3. 'Kinijit: the 'Ethiopian' Name of the Lie'
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/35648

4. 'Refutation of the Kinijit Amhara Abyssinians'
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/35897

If now Mr. Berhan Tsehai admits in public that Kinijit and Ginbot-7 are racist organizations, I will immediately submit to him my public excuses, withdrawing his name from the aforementioned list.

'Ethiopianist' 'brothers' of Mr. Berhan Tsehai: the case 'Abebe Gelaw'

It is quite interesting that in the aforementioned list that the hasty Mr. Berhan Tsehai did not bother to read and his inconsistent friends failed to report to him (in order to make a good job) there are some names of Mr. Berhan Tsehai's friends – I should say 'brothers' in 'Ethiopianism'.

Among Africa's most repugnant racists, listed above, one may notice Mr. Abebe Gelaw. I have spent some time, revealing Mr. Abebe Gelaw's racist political ideology. Not by coincidence! He had reacted against me because of the publication of my aforementioned articles about Kinijit, and I felt obliged to unveil to thousands of astounded readers the true face of Mr. Abebe Gelaw in a series of articles that are necessary bibliography for the presumably gullible Mr. Berhan Tsehai. Here is the list:

1. Refutation of Addis Voice Dictatorial and Barbaric Ethos – Part I
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/36569

2. Refutation of Addis Voice Dictatorial and Barbaric Ethos – Part II
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/36625

3. Refutation of Addis Voice Dictatorial and Barbaric Ethos – Part III
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/36658

4. Refutation of Addis Voice Dictatorial and Barbaric Ethos – Part IV
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/36798

In these articles, one can find an extensive analysis of the racist nature of Mr. Abebe Gelaw's ideology that he keeps diffusing through his Addis Voice center of misinformation. If now Mr. Berhan Tsehai, denounces Mr. Abebe Gelaw and his racist ideology, I will be most jubilant in presenting my public excuses to Mr. Berhan Tsehai, and I will withdraw his name from the aforementioned list.

'Ethiopianist' 'brothers' of Mr. Berhan Tsehai: the case 'Mamo Muchie'

Without trying to exhaust the issue at this level, I simply note that in the aforementioned list one can find another illustrious racist, 'brother' in 'Ethiopianism', whose contribution to evil deeds of racist nature I unveiled last year: Mr. Mamo Muchie.

The following series of articles are additional bibliography for Mr. Berhan Tsehai. They help clarify the reason for which 'Ethiopianism' isAfrica's most repugnant and most perilous racism. Here is the list:

1. Horn of Africa - Monstrous Colonial Plans Unveiled
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/37904

2. Colonial Plans for the Horn of Africa – 'Ethiopia' to border with Egypt?
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/37960

3. The Horn of Africa Conference Clique, and their Dark Plans for Egypt, Sudan, 'Ethiopia', and Somalia
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/38050

4. Horn of Africa History, Colonial Plans, and the Outrageous Forger Mammo Muchie
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/38115

5. Horn of Africa History, Colonial Plans, and the Outrageous Forger Mammo Muchie – Part II
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/38460

(and another three subsequent parts)

In these articles, one can find an extensive analysis of the racist nature of Mr. Mamo Muchie's ideology that he keeps diffusing through various orchestrated means of misinformation. If now Mr. Berhan Tsehai, denounces Mr. Mamo Muchie and his racist ideology, I will be most jubilant in presenting my public excuses to Mr. Berhan Tsehai, and I will withdraw his name from the aforementioned list.

In a forthcoming article, I will specify what racism is and analyze excerpts of racist literature produced by Mr. Berhan Tsehai and the Ginbot-7 organization.
