The following is an invaluable piece of document in which
we find an extremely riveting story. It is a story not just interesting and
entertaining to read, like some kind of fiction. Rather, it is a story as
strongly inspiring as it is really real! For precisely which reason, however,
it is a kind of story that “developmental” historians and researchers of all
sorts, who have put themselves to the service of the Zeitgeist, would not want
us to hear about. In fact this kind of story does not sit well with those who have a “grand
plan” of fragmenting a great nation. But I believe it indeed is ennobling for
us Ethiopians to know about it, even when we have fallen, alas, on such awfully
hard times!
