Action Speaks Louder Than Words in San Diego: Helping the ISIS's victims familes in Ethiopia

When ISIS slaughtered innocent  Ethiopian Christians on April 19, 2015 (Still the actual date of death is under investigation , according to the victims Facebook page the last day they updated their page is showing in Feb. 2015) that means ISIS may killed them in Feb. or March, but when ISIS released that video on that day it was one of the shocking news ever heard for most Ethiopians around the world.

April 19, 2015 will be a day of remembrance. But one thing ISIS miscalculated  was the effect of the video. As many said their video delivered a message where ISIS never assumed. It showed how Ethiopian Christians are strong and ready to be sacrificed in the name of Jesus. It showed  they can not fling a bit when a knife is pointing at their neck and the gun is aiming at their head. If you see the video the ISIS killer were disturbed and nervous but the brave Ethiopians were calm, rested and peaceful. Because they were going to a place where most of us are dreaming, they were going to the heaven's gate. That is a wish for all true Christians around the world

Also the killing of all those 28 brave Christians brought a unity which was never seen in the history of Ethiopia since invasion of Ethiopia by Italy in 1935. Now Ethiopians are united more than ever. Even Ethiopians and Eritreans are united more than ever, as a matter of fact the entire Christian community around the world is united more than ever. In general the ISIS propaganda video worked against them.    Now African countries are ready to join with the Saudi Arabia leading coalition army  to fight ISIS in Yemen. 


Still the lingering question in everyone's mind is why ISIS killed those  innocent immigrants who are risking their lives to have a better life in Europe? ISIS should know this in the future,  when all these immigrants are in Libya or any part of the Middle East they  already know the danger of their presence in that place and time. ISIS should think twice, if ISIS is claiming they don't kill women, I think they are wrong, because when they slaughtering  those Christians indirectly they are killing the live of victims' families, like their  mothers and children. That was a vacuum where Ethiopians around the world are ready to fill.

Yes! Now ISIS's plant is like a jammed gun or a rotten egg. It did not work!  Killing does not bring love! Now Ethiopian and Christians across the glob are helping  victims families. Spiritual,  monetary and community support is pouring to the families. Now we are  not mourning the loss of our brothers but celebrate their sacristy for the sake of sin. As a matter of fact the sake of ISIS sin. Now they are angles. 

That is happening across the globe. We are memorizing and glorifying their sacrifices. Not only we celebrate but  we also support the surviving families.  Read the note below!

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) – A dispute at a Charlotte church has led to members being banned from church property, the firing of the church’s priest and a lawsuit in state court.

At issue in the lawsuit is whether or not the head of the parish council at Holy Trinity Ethiopian Orthodox Church, Dr. Solomon Gugsa, improperly changed the church’s bylaws to extend his term and alter membership requirements to exclude those who disagree with him.

The lawsuit was originally filed in March 2014. An amended complaint was filed in November 2014.

There are 20 plaintiffs in the lawsuit; each plaintiff is a member of the church and some of them served as officers on the church’s parish council.

In addition to challenging Gugsa’s actions as head of the parish council, the plaintiffs are also seeking access to the church’s membership list and financial documents.

Documents obtained by On Your Side Investigates show members of the church made repeated requests for complete access to the church’s membership list and financial documents before the lawsuit was filed to no avail.

North Carolina state law requires membership lists and financial records of all incorporated non-profits to be made available to its membership upon request.

An attorney for Holy Trinity, Julian Wright, said church leaders have complied with the law.

“Anybody who has ask for those records, that I’m aware of, has not been denied those records,” Wright said.

Wright agreed to sit down with On Your Side Investigates after Gugsa refused multiple requests for an interview.

Teacher suspended for telling student to ‘go back to Ethiopia’





Teacher suspended for telling student to ‘go back to Ethiopia’
College Peer Tafnit Holon suspended a lecturer Tuesday after a video surfaced of the teacher arguing with Ethiopian students, telling them, “You forget where you came from. Go back to Ethiopia.”

The argument began Monday during a class discussion on the violent Rabin Square protest that took place in Tel Aviv the day before, in which Ethiopian-Israelis rallied against police brutality and institutionalized racism. One of the students, Osnat Terunech, whose parents moved to Israel from Ethiopia, had taken part in the demonstration.

“The Ethiopians are taking over the country,” said Aviva, the female lecturer whose last name has been withheld.

Terunech responded to the lecturer, chastising her for voicing her political opinions in a classroom setting. “You’re supposed to keep your opinions to yourself,” she continued. “You are representing an organization.”

“No one will shut my mouth,” the teacher replied. “You know what? It’s time you all shut your mouths.”

“What do you mean by ‘you all’?” Terunech asked.

“The Ethiopians!” the teacher yelled back.

When Terunech refused to leave the class, the teacher called campus police, Channel 2 reported.

After she finally did leave the room, the lecturer addressed the rest of the class. “How insolent they are!” she said. “A few years ago they would never have dared to open their mouths.

“They don’t understand one thing: They’re different from us. And they need to accept that,” the teacher told the class.

A different student responded, “Not one of them is different from us. They’re Jews just like us.”

Another added, “It is sheer racism to say a thing like that.”





According to Terunech, shortly afterward the rest of the students left the class in protest.

Terunech responded to the video Tuesday, telling Channel 2 news, “It’s the first time in my life [I’ve experienced something like this].”

“I was surprised,” she said. “I was hurt.

“How can it be that someone who is supposed to teach me, to give me an education, can say such words?” she continued.

The teacher, Aviva, also responded to the event, defending her position. “What did I say?” she asked incredulously. “Whoever doesn’t like it here, doesn’t have to stay; that’s all I said.”

“[Terunech] cursed me, the government, the police, the college. She started screaming like a crazy person,” Aviva said. “She thought she was still at a demonstration in Rabin Square.”

This cursing does not appear in the video, and Terunech denied it outright. “I’m shocked by the lies,” Terunech said. “I’m shocked.”

The college responded to the incident in a statement, saying, “The teacher has been suspended and has been called to a hearing in order to hear her side of the event.”

Picture of the day!

Senegal on Monday said it would send 2,100 soldiers to Saudi Arabia to join Riyadh's military coalition battling rebels in Yemen, at the request of Saudi King Salman.

Foreign Minister Mankeur Ndiaye made the announcement in a speech to the National Assembly, according to a copy of the remarks obtained by AFP.

He did not specify when the troops would be deployed, and officials did not immediately provide further details.

Ndiaye said Riyadh originally asked Dakar to contribute to the Saudi-led coalition at the beginning of April.




Senegalese President Micky Sall "decided to respond favourably to this request by deploying a contingent of 2,100 men to the holy land of Saudi Arabia".

"The terms and other necessary arrangements for the deployment were made between the chiefs of the armed forces of the two countries," the foreign minister said.

The Saudi-led coalition launched air strikes against Iran-backed Shiite Huthi rebels and their allies on March 26 after they seized control of large parts of the country and advanced on the main southern city of Aden, where President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi had taken refuge.

Hadi fled to Saudi Arabia and the Huthis -- who have joined forces with army units loyal to ex-president Ali Abdullah Saleh -- have refused to concede territory or down arms despite international pressure.

According to Ndiaye, previous Senegalese military deployments to the Middle East have included serving as part of the international coalition that liberated Kuwait following Iraq's invasion of the country in 1990.

Since independence from France in 1960, the country has deployed nearly 25,000 soldiers in more than 20 peacekeeping operations, he said.

Italian ships rescue nearly 6,800 migrants; baby born at sea: በስደት ላይ መርከብ ላይ የተወለደችውም ህጻን ተረፈች እልልል


በስደት ላይ መርከብ ላይ የተወለደችውም ህጻን ተረፈች


ROME (AP) — Italian rescue ships brought migrants by the thousands to the country's southern ports, including a baby born aboard a navy vessel, as crowded shelters in Sicily and on the mainland struggled Monday to find room for them.
Some politicians based in northern Italy, meanwhile, vowed that their regions wouldn't take in any of the Mediterranean Sea migrants. In a three-day period ending Sunday, 6,771 survivors were rescued in the seas north of Libya from overcrowded rubber dinghies and unseaworthy fishing boats sent out by smuggling rings, the Coast Guard reported Monday. Ten bodies were found Sunday on boats or in the sea.
Calm seas and mild temperatures fueled the spike in human trafficking — just like it did last month when nearly 6,000 migrants were rescued during a few days of good weather. Italy has not yet released the total number of migrant arrivals in April, but the relentless stream of migrants this year is on track to surpass the 170,000 rescued at sea by Italy in 2014.
The navy said a woman, in labor when rescued Sunday, gave birth to a girl aboard one of its patrol ships. Mother and daughter were fine and the patrol boat, carrying 654 migrants who were saved in four different rescue operations, headed to port.



Other rescuers had grim tasks. An Italian tugboat, among several commercial vessels saving migrants on Sunday, also recovered two corpses, the Navy said. The surge of arrivals set Italian port mayors and charity organizations scrambling to find beds for the migrants. Many migrants will seek asylum because of war or persecution and hope to reach relatives in northern Europe. But until their applications are processed, which could take months or longer, asylum-seekers are supposed to stay in Italy.
In Reggio Calabria, where 780 migrants disembarked in the "toe" of the Italian peninsula, priority was being given to keeping migrant families together, many of them in a gym, and 14 migrant babies were being given medical checkups at local hospitals. Around 540 other Reggio Calabria migrants were being taken to the Tuscany or Emilia Romagna regions in the north.
Interior Minister Angelino Alfano visited the Italian island of Sicily on Monday, conferring with local authorities wrestling with how to shelter the growing number of migrants. The Milan-based governor of Lombardy, meanwhile, vowed not to take in any more migrants.
"In a few days I will be in Rome. And I'll repeat to the interior minister that Lombardy has already done its part," Gov. Roberto Maroni was quoted by the Italian news agency ANSA as saying. "If there is any funding available, it should be spent on our citizens and not for clandestine" migrants.
An estimated 800 migrants drowned last month when their boat capsized off Libya with hundreds of them locked in the hold by smugglers. After that, the European Union held an emergency summit and agreed to contribute more boats and patrol aircraft to Mediterranean rescue efforts.
Charities in Italy have pitched in to give the migrants food, beds and a safe place to socialize. "We have to realize that emigration is a phenomenon Italy can't face alone," said the Rev. Antonio Pangallo, who runs the Caritas charity in Reggio Calabria. "My hope is that they (politicians) don't get interested in the problem only when we witness again — I hope not — another genocide in Mediterranean waters. Italy needs help."

Protest over alleged police brutality in Israel turns violent in Tel Aviv

Protest over alleged police brutality in Israel turns violent in Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv, Israel (CNN)A protest in Tel Aviv over alleged police mistreatment of Ethiopian Jews turned violent Sunday, resulting in 57 officers being injured, according to Israeli police.
Most of those injuries were minor, according to police, but one officer was described to be "moderately injured." Police say 12 protestors were injured. The extent of those injuries is not known.
The planned demonstration by the Ethiopian Jewish community -- incensed over a video gone viral that shows a uniformed Israel Defense Forces soldier of Ethiopian descent being assaulted by police -- had been peaceful for hours before things took a violent turn.
Authorities employed horses, water cannons and smoke to disperse the crowd in Rabin Square, where demonstrators had been chanting slogans such as "a violent cop should be in jail."
Forty-three protesters were arrested, according to Israeli police spokeswoman Luba Samri.
The Tel Aviv protest comes on the heels of a largely peaceful demonstration in Jerusalem on Thursday that drew more than 1,000 people.

Video sparked protest

The videotaped episode from April 26 was a tipping point for Ethiopian Jews, some 125,000 strong, who say they have long felt like second-class citizens since arriving in two waves of mass immigration in the 1980s and early 1990s.
The video shows the soldier, Damas Pakada, standing and holding a bicycle's handle bars when an officer approaches him and appears to forcefully turn him and the bike around toward the opposite direction. There is no sound, so it's unclear what either party said, but things escalated quickly. The officer charges and takes several swings, knocking Pakada to the ground. A second officer comes to assist before the soldier manages to break free.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement saying that "all claims will be looked into but there is no place for violence and such disturbances."
Netanyahu will meet with Pakada on Monday, as well as with leaders in the Ethiopian community, according to the statement.
One of the policemen in the video has since been fired, according to police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld.

አያልቅበት የ30 አመት ወጣትና ከሶስት አመት በፊት ወደ ሱዳን ያቀና ሲሆን፥ ከእናቱ ጋር ሲኖር የነበረ መሆኑን ከቤተሰቦቹ ተረድተናል።
ብርሃኑ ጌታነህ

አያልቅበት ስንታየሁ ብቸኛ ልጃቸው እንደነበርም እናቱ ተናግረዋል ።
ብርሃኑ ጌታነህ ደግሞ ባለትዳር እና በፎቶግራፉ ላይ እንደምንመለከተው የስምንት እና የአራት አመት ልጆች ያሉት ወጣት ነበር ።
በአዲስ አበባ አቧሬ አካባቢ ይኖር የነበር ሲሆን፥ ከአገር ከወጣ አራት ወር አልፎታል።
ባለቤቱ ብርቱካን ጌቱ ስትባል በአሁኑ ወቅት ባለቤቷን ማጣቷ ተደራራቢ ችግር ላይ እንደጣላት ገልፃለች።
በፍርድ አወቅ አጥቁዬ
