    This is what the world needs to understand and support the Ethiopian government in its attempt to build dams to use for irrigation and power generation not to depend on rain for farming. Unfortunately, countries like Egypt turn blind eye and blocking Ethiopia from using its resources backed by the United States and World Bank. History teaches us lesson. Climate change is real. Depending on sporadic rain for farming has been becoming very challenging.

    Imagine this:
    A 6 or 7-year-old little girl watching a program similar to this in the mid to late 70s and weeping from the core of her identity, one that she didn't even know that she had.
    Imagine this:
    Her mother comes in and angrily turns off the tv, telling the little girl not to watch such things and to stop crying.
    Imagine this:
    That mother believing, without any doubt, that there was something wrong with that little girl and told her, for the rest of her life, "I should have gotten you help when you were young."
    Iminge this:
    That little girl all grow'd up at 57 years old, and that she has just now discovered that there was NEVER anything wrong with her. That what she was experiencing back then was empathy and wanting to make the world a better place. To stop hurt and pain.
    For human rights to exists.
    We have an inherent capacity for empathy, an innate restlessness for equality, and for others to be treated fairly, for others to have human rights.
    We have that Inside of us.
    Naturally.
    Some would even say it's God-given and I wouldn't disagree.
    These should never be extinguished simply because others are uncomfortable with them.
    Remember. Please remember that.

    Dear Mr. Jonathan Dimbleby,
    I am writing a biography of Dejazmach Legesse Bezu, the governor general of Wollo province succeeding Dejazmach Solomon Abraha. He was appointed as the viceroy of Wollo in mid July, 1973 G.C. after Dejazmach Solomon Abraha was placed under house arrest for concealing the Wollo famine. This is to kindly request you to provide me with any information about Dejazmach Legesse Bezu.
    I thank you in advance for the support you care to give me.

      That's not how Land works, idiot.
      The people who suffered the famine lived in dry places in the north where rain can sometimes not fall.
      Because of this, the crops will simply not grow and die and because the people rely on it they won't have any food and will die.

It sounds cruel but hey is better than watching these children starve to death and die from that and other diseases.

    LORD Jesus Christ Father Spiritual Eternal Divine Supreme says:
    "I will not let hunger, poverty, and all misfortunes fall upon people unless they turn their face completely from Me, turning into worshipers of the idols of darkness and seeking only personal pleasures ( carnal pleasures), devoid of spiritual content. For hunger and poverty will force people to think of the causes that caused all these sufferings, sharpening their minds. Thus, from the nations will be born wise and sensitive people who will open their eyes to their fellows, showing them the true cause of their suffering! If people would never turn their faces from God, they would no longer suffer from disease and poverty. Thus, if you and your descendants will always keep your faith, acting in accordance with My teachings, you will never suffer, and the diseases of the body will never weaken your soul, filling you with fear. Moreover, the diseases of the body are never more than the bitter consequences of disobeying the commandments we have given you and which I have explained so clearly.
    The one who seeks to obey these commandments from an early age will attain old age and will never need a doctor; and his descendants will not have to suffer because of the sins of their parents. Instead, people who go astray from My order will very soon experience the most terrible physical diseases and thus will have to learn what the consequences of their contempt are for the divine commandments. If he wants the machine he bought for a long time to work properly, the buyer must follow the instructions given to him and which the manufacturer has shown when he bought the machine. If after a while, out of indolence or recklessness, the buyer refuses to respect the instructions for use, and the machine breaks down, he cannot condemn the manufacturer, but only himself.
    God is the Great Engineer of the human body, which he conceived as a sophisticated machine, useful to humans. If the soul uses this animated machinery in accordance with the clear instructions given to it by God through His commandments, the physical body will maintain its state of health. But if the soul becomes sluggish and sensual, refusing to listen to the directions of the Eternal Engineer, he cannot condemn it when the machine is broken. "
