Fannos have to stop killing non-Amhara ethnic members.
Amhara elites and their riffraff will surely blame the TPLF and Tigrayans in general if they continue to suffer defeat after defeat. They criticize the TPLF after they lose on the battlefield, including for experiencing hiccups.
Fannos killed children, priests, and nuns and massacred the members of the orthodox church in Axum with total support from Shabiya Arab mercenaries.
10,000 Fannos were imprisoned not for the mere reason of their identity but for conspiracies to topple the Ethiopian Moses, Abiy Ahmed, promoting bloody conflicts against non-Amhara Ethiopians, and robbery of public and private assets.
Fannos, who are locked behind bars by the kindest PP members, are much luckier than those innocent non-Amhara civilians burned alive by Fannos. They must stay there indefinitely! Andaregachew Tsige, Habtamu Ayalew, Abebe Belew, Dereje h/w (Dere News), Messay Mekonen, Geletaw Zeeleke, and Shaleka Dawit (prospective president of Amharanized Ethiopia) are all terrorists and leaders of gang members who are responsible for the genocide in Oromiyaa, Tigray, and Amhara regions committed by their agents, fannos.

The government has the right to outlaw and crackdown on the terrorist Fano groups. In the military campaign the government forces are not winning any ground. They are poorly trained and motivated. Reorganizing the army by purging out the Amhara officers must be done. The Eritrean trained and armed Fano forces must be stopped from entering Finfine and take over power. The country is in chaos and the regional powers Tigray and Eritrea are confronting each other. Since Oromia is the gift of Tigray to the Oromo people, Tigray is willing to defend it.
