    Sure, you don't have to pick a side. But the OP presented the TPLF as "the masses rising up" and that's not true at all

    Look at the Ex-NATO Supreme Allied Commander telling the US that we need to intervene, and notice the caption : "Rebels with a cause." Objectively false; hardly 'rebels,' the TPLF were in power for decades until ousted by an election that they didn't like. "Cause" implies some noble deed beyond occupation through rape and violence. The ex-NATO commander says we should sanction the Ethiopian government and offer aid to "the civilian population as an incentive for a cease-fire," which must refer to the TPLF, who are combatants.
    And I am not supporting Ahmed by pointing this stuff out

        I hope you realize that I'm saying that because NATO is so opposed to the Ethiopian government, we should be suspicious of all this pro-TPLF nonsense.

      This is one of the most interesting sources I've seen and that phrase choice is fascinating.
