Zenawi protesters at Copenhagen climate talks: Ethiopia raping women, environment, and killing
By Alexander Kelly and Blair Kelly COPENHAGEN -- This is the first of three videos showing the Ogadenian protests against the Ethiopian government and Prime Minister Meles Zenawi. This protester alleges widespread killing and raping by the Ethiopian military, as well as environmental damage.
We heard earlier that the Ogadenians were seeking to set up an autonomous region, like the Kurds in northern Iraq, but these people appear to be calling for full independence.
See our earlier post for details. Our efforts to contact the Ethiopian consultate in Seattle for comment still have not been successful:
