  • I'm Kenyan and anybody that knows anything about long distance running knows the rivalry between Kenyans and Ethiopians. Haile has broken Kenyan hearts time and again but I'm struck by the similarities we have in terms of upbringing, struggles and values. This guy is truly a legend and I'm enormously proud of his accomplishments both on the track and in philanthropy. Long distance running has done a lot to East Africa and it's something we have to be thankful for.

  • haile...u da man! keep it up, c u at beijing!

  • Bahrebanda is angry trying to be Ethiopian and trying to be Eritrean at the same time. its tough for kids like bahrenegash to confront their INDENTITY-CRISIS, that's probably the cause for many eritrean suicides worldwide.

  • @BahreNeGash Ethiopian athletes are the best and have achieved many accomplishments, Air-train athletes are the best at defecting to neighboring countries (Tanzania, Kenya, etc.) lol

  • @OperationSunset

    ERITREA TRAINED, ARMED & CROWNED THE MINORITY TIGRAY APARTHIED (TPLF-ETHIOPIAN GOVERNMENT) IN TO ETHIOPIAN PALACE.

    Now, why is the minority Tigray Apartheid in Ethiopian Palace,,, PARANOID & PANICKING, when Eritrea is arming training & millions of Ethiopians????

  • @BahreNeGash A report just released by the UN Monitoring Group on Somalia and Eritrea reveals hitherto officially unconfirmed factual information which implicates the Isaias regime for extensive involvement in people and arms trafficking, money laundering as well as a range of other purely criminal undertakings with utter and complete disregard for international law.

  • @OperationSunset

    Congratulations Haile Gebresillasie,,, You ALWAYS made Ethiopia proud, while the AGAMES break Ethiopia in to tribal-RWANDA.

  • @OperationSunset

    PARANOID AGAMES will continue to feel scared of Eritrea, training & arming MILLIONS Ethiopians to DECIMATE TPLF.

    Therefore, AGAMES will continue to make FICTIONS, accusing Ethiopians, Eritreans & Somalis to prolong TPLF life.

    TOO BAD,,,, AGAMES CAN NOT DECEIVE ALL ETHIOPIANS ALL OF THE TIME.

    Sooner or later,,,, The ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE'S VOLCANO will decimate TPLF.

  • @BahreNeGash Bombs were to be placed between the Ethiopian PM's office and a hotel where heads of state were staying in Addis Ababa Photograph: David Levene for the Guardian

    Eritrea planned a massive attack on an African Union summit in Ethiopia in January this year that was designed to "make Addis Ababa like Baghdad", according to a new UN report.
