Who is starving to death the people of Western Tigray in Ethiopia and, in effect, continuing to ethnically cleanse them? Answer: everyone through a conspiracy of federal punishment and infighting among Tigrayan authorities. What a betrayal! www.thenewhumanitarian.org/analysis/202...

Its always unnerving to see people talking about war like its sports game, supporting their respective teams, like its not something with extraordinary destruction that, under the BEST of circumstances, those who haven't been obliterated, will need to spend many decades attempting to rebuild from.
