Eritrea Ethiopia Border War -123,000 Ethiopians Killed part4

The American funded and Russian armed Ethiopian military doubled the size of its armed forces to fight in the 1998-2000 war against Eritrea, mobilizing some 250,000 men. Casualty figures reached a massive number of 123,000 Ethiopian soldiers killed, principally in the two major assaults in February-June 1999 and May-June 2000. While Eritrea sustaind 19,000 casualties in combat.

The final result of the border war came in a court room, where Eritrea was rewarded Badme, (the small town alegidly the war started over) in which Ethopian leaders signed agreeing to the court's rulling but yet have done nothing to keep their end of the bargin. Military experts believe another war may very well brake out do to Ethiopia's carelessness and bitterness towards its smaller, yet, stronger militarily neighbor of Eritrea.

Again, Ethiopia is only 100 years old, before that, there was Abyssinia and before that, there was Axumite Empire, that had modern day Eritrea, Eastern Sudan and northern parts of tigray part of it.

Oromiya, Ogadenia, Afar, Gamebella were gained in the late 1800s and early 1900s, with Ogadenia being gift wrapped to you by the British colonizers. Abyssinia only consisted of Amhara and Tigray province but do to Abyssinia's expantion policy, it conquered Oromiya and most of modern day "Ethiopia".

It is very sad that both Ethiopian & Eritreans are so much concerned about the number of soldiers they killed. We are brothers. We should not be proud of killing each other. "THE WAR IS A POLITICAL GAME". Please my Eritrean & Ethiopian brothers-LE US WAKE UP!
