siye abraha the TPLF/eprdf guy accused the anti hiajackers as "spy of the former government" and fired all of them, from 1991 to 1996 Ethiopian unfortunately was the most hijacked airline and the TPLF/eprdf people chose to do nothing about it and finaly on Nov. 1996 Ethiopian B767-260 crashed carrying 175 passengers in the Indian ocean.
The crash that happened on Nov. 1996 can not be blamed on the passengers. The bandit regime called TPLF/eprdf that took power in Ethiopia in 1991 is responsible. Ethiopian Airlines used to fly with anti hijacker onboard prior to 1991, when a TPLF man called siye abraha was appointed to lead the airline.
Fear can be immobilizing, group dynamics also have a great influence on behaviors under duress. I hope we all can find it within us to act when necessary, a thought provoking video.
Made me think of the song from The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - The Impression That I Get. in part; "Have you ever been close to tragedy I've never had to knock on wood makes me wonder if I could And I'm glad I haven't yet Or has it ever come down to do or die You've got to rise above the rest I'm not a coward, I've just never been tested I'd like to think that if I was, I would pass I might be a cowards, I'm afraid of what I might find out." I hope I would do the right thing but you never know!
Ive heard something like that..and ur right..why would they wanna come here???? lololol (for vegemite?)
Seriously though...i have heard lots of stuff being said about that whole 9/11, one has to wonder about the sacrifice made..and what was REALLY behind it
During those times, asylum seekers had a good chance of entering Australia. The Howard government came into power after that and tightened the loop holes...
This is a very powerful story, Raoul which I've not heard before. Where'd you get if from? Are you sure it's true. I'm only asking that because I'd like to be able to tell it to friends, agreeing absalutey with Burke, and want to know more about the source. Mike Rubbo
Much better story than just reading the quote, well done sir.

What good is it to be a good man if you are a coward. Cowards do not make good men. Freedom is not free.

I've heard of that hijacking story before, it's hard to believe the passengers did nothing, good story ER
I'm still wondering as to why the hijackers wanted to go to Australia.
