Tens of thousands of Ethiopians rallied in Addis Ababa on Sunday in support of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's government as federal troops fight rebellious forces who are threatening to march on the city.

Some demonstrators denounced the United States, which is among the foreign powers that have called for a ceasefire as a year-long war that has killed thousands of people intensified amid rebel advances last weekend.

"They want to destroy our country like they did to Afghanistan. They will never succeed, we are Ethiopians."

This is the Islamic conquest of Ethiopia, a nation which is Coptic Christian.

The USA under Biden advances the Islamic conquest of Ethiopia. Next to fall will be Kenya.Boko Haram will grow in Africa.

The streets of Addis Ababa wil run red with blood. The Ethiopians will fight to the last man before they surrender to the Saudi Arabian Funded Islamic conquest of Ethiopia.

“This is the Islamic conquest of Ethiopia”

What are you talking about? Most of the groups involved are either Orthodox or Coptic Christian, and are ethnicity focused not religiously motivated. The Saudis have their hands full in Yemen, the only Muslim power involved is the UAE, which is supporting the Ethiopian government.

The current Ethiopian government is Socialist and was hard core Communist until they almost ruined the country. There is a lot of anger and frustration against them. Their failed attempt to subjugate the Tigray region triggered a backlash that will likely consume them. Good riddance.

U.S. involvement in Ethiopia is minimal, we did work with them on mutual goals in Somalia, specifically supporting the African Union’s peacekeeping force in Somalia. But even our limited involvement dwindled after they started the Tigray mess.
