Hagerfiker Commenatary!

12/27/2006

First and foremost let’s call a spade a spade. Despite the fact that foreign elements particularly Arab nations conspired against Ethiopia, the ICU could not have gained such prominence without the aid of Shabia. Therefore, the defeat is just as much a Shabia defeat as an ICU defeat. This is worth repeating again so it becomes abundantly clear that Shabia the architect of the ICU is the defeated party. Silence from the Shabia camp is testimonial of their total and utter defeat at the hands of the Ethiopian Defense Forces.

Quite frankly Shabia has played its last card and has come up empty once again. The defeat of the ICU is a defeat for the ONLF and OLF. No more safe-havens for these foot soldiers whose allegiance to Shabia is an open secret even to their own supporters. No more escape through Somalia for those who have been waging attacks against Ethiopia with a base to run back over the border in ICU controlled Somalia.

Shabia’s strategy to encircle Ethiopia with hostile forces crumbled in less than 24 hours. It took Issayas 6 years to plan this assault and his dream crumbled in less than 24 hours. You can’t help feel sorry for such a loser. After all, he worked very hard (we did not say worked smart) to revenge his defeat on the Badme war. His hopes of overthrowing the EPRDF and catapulting himself back to messiah status was cut short in less time than it takes most of you to wake up in the morning and return home to go to bed after a day at work. Yes it took such a short time to crush his last hope and dream.

Secondly, there was an element of Ethiopians who actively and openly cheered on the ICU. These traitors are big time losers. They are now so discredited that they can never claim to have the moral ground to question anybody’s “Ethiopianness” ever again. These elements are now victims of Issayas failure. Their hopes and aspirations were directly tied to the success of Issayas plans. In other words, THEY COULD ONLY SUCCEED if the ICU marched to Addis and took over. They could only succeed if Issayas was the winner. They could only succeed if someone else other than themselves was able to succeed. These traitors incapable of succeeding for themselves were slaves of someone else’s victory. Unfortunately for them and fortunately for Ethiopia, Issayas lost.

So what is the likely outcome of these developments? Well for sure Shabia has lost BIG TIME. In short Issayas is no longer a factor. This war was his last hope. OLF and ONLF are also casualties of this war. Just like a slave who is dependent on a master. When the master is sick the slave is also sick. When the masters got a cold the slave begins to sniffle and cough. The master of these liberation fronts is very sick. These liberation fronts now need liberation from their sick master. Unfortunately for them without their sick master they are non existent.

As for the non existing AFD and EPPF; well they are winners. They are winners because it is impossible to die when you never lived. Lets not forget that Hagerfiker has pleaded with these elements both on radio and internet for months to correct their wrong policy. Now it is to late. They lose big time.

Lastly we say thank you to the EDF our pride and joy. We know the job is not yet complete but we are confident in your ability to close the deal. Again thank you for making us proud.

Lastly, our favorite editor is starting a new campaign to work with Somalis to attack PM Meles. Thankfully he is the same guy who used to run Tegbar. Tegbar in Amharic has a positive connotation. After he abused the name, the term now is associated with one failure after another. Maybe we need to send the Somalis his CV.
