Garbage in garbage out, repeating actions proven wrong makes the act deadly wrong.

I fully support the withdrawal of the American troops from Afghanistan. Americans should have done this action a long time ago. The justifiable war defending the Homefront was accomplished, the offenders were eliminated, and the major part remaining of Afghan people fought against Soviet dominance and was ready to embrace the liberal mentality of the West. By waging a long war, the West lost the minimal opening of thrust with the possibility of expanding changes favorable to the Afghan people. I hope the harmful cultural taboo amongst the people of Afghanistan will not return to torture men and women who refuse to live in the mainstream of Taliban.

In a similar venue, I question the foreign policy of the West in the horn, favoring the TPLF minority groups over the significant population of Ethiopia (approximate population of the people 5 million to 100 million). Additionally, TPLF is a minority group imposing its will by force on the majority of the Tigreans. Its claim of legitimacy to govern the region is a self-declared demise acceptable to none. Ethiopians agreed with the USA that TPLF as an organization originated from the terrorist Albanian ideology that believed in power and freedom is born from the barrel of a gun. The legitimately elected government of Ethiopia, moderate and led PM Abiye, a recognized Nobel Prize winner, for peace, stood firm with the people never to allow the return of torturous TPLF terrorist group to power. However, the TPLF terror group vaulted into its natural habits and is trying hard to seize power by the barrel of a gun. The Ethiopian people were left with no choice but to defend their newly won liberation from TPLF dictatorship. Now, the Ethiopians are forced into unwelcoming war, killing brothers and sisters. The West is well aware of the origination and intent of the TPLF terrorist groups but insists that the Ethiopian government should negotiate with the TPLF and settle for less (giving up freedom). The West seems to assist TPLF to have an opportunity to usurp power once again. Ethiopians deserve respect and the West should regret allowing TPLF to saddle to power in the first place, a big mistake. Unfortunately, the West did not learn from their first mistake; instead, they dipped into it again, garbage in and garbage out. Likewise, the long war in Afghanistan and siding the TPLF will be recorded as one of the biggest failures of the West's foreign policy. The sure thing, it will hunt them for years to come on the globe. History will never forgive the blatant injustice of the West against Ethiopians.
