Houstonians show solidarity with Ethiopian-Muslims
Posted by Ethiodemocrat
Ethiopians brazen the hot sun in Houston to show their solidarity with their Muslim brethrens in Ethiopia, who have been standing up to the Woyanes every Friday for over a year. The Ethiopian regime arrested a number of Muslim leaders in an effort to silence them. Their protest stems from government attempt to appoint their leaders and to force them to follow a brand of Islam that the government prefers.
The Woyane’s hope to divide and conquer Muslim Ethiopians failed miserably. The motto of “united we stand and divided we fall” is abundantly clear among all Ethiopians, but for Muslims, it is part of the religion as observed by Malcolm X during his visit to Mecca.
Malcolm X said Islam is a religion that “erases from its society the race problem” and one that generates overwhelming spirit of true brotherhood as is practiced by people of all colors and races. During his visit to Mecca, he was able to eat from the same plate, drink from the same glass, and slept on the same rug – while praying to the same God – with fellows whose eyes were the bluest of blue, whose hair was the blondest of blond, and whose skin was the whitest of white. This was unknown to him in Jim Crow infested America then. He felt comfortable among white Muslims, among the black African Muslims of Nigeria, Sudan and Ghana.
The Woyanes can learn from Islam to let and let live in peace with everybody or get consumed by the hate and division they created. Thanks To Muslim Ethiopians, that the table is turning against the Woyane scheme of divide and conquer.
With worldwide solidarity gaining support among Christians and all faiths, the Ethiopian people will prevail against Woyane and may at last live and let leave in peace instead being consumed by Woyane engineered hate and division. Following the path of Woyanes will generate economic and political misery and chaos for all Ethiopians save Woyane, EFORT and their cronies.
The Ethiopian people deserve peace and hope instead of fear and uncertain future. The Ethiopian Muslims are paving the way by taking the risk to confront the Woyanes and we have a god given duty to lend them financial, moral and political support for the sake of Ethiopia.
