| Ethiopia Restaurant | | 2010-12-31 12:30:00 | | Ethiopia Restaurant is my favorite Ethiopian Restaurant anywhere! It's located at 2955 Telegraph Avenue near Ashby Street in Berkeley, California. The phone number is 510-843-1992.They boast that they have 792 possible vegetarian combinations for their Nene’wee. They also serve meat, of course. I had my first Ethiopian food at this restaurant about twelve years ago, and it's still my favorite Ethiopian food anywhere (even when the Blue Nile was open). The one thing that is disappointing is that occasionally the Injera (traditional Ethiopian bread) seems a little too thick for my palate.If you're looking for an Ethiopian restaurant, I highly recommend this place. Check out the Ethiopia Restaurant menu. It's definitely one of the "favorites" in the Berkeley Restaurant Guide. | | By: Berkeley Restaurant Guide | | |

| | Picture of the day: Ethiopia in food crisis - once more | | 2008-06-24 05:29:50 | |
A relative carries the body of four-year-old Michu Mohamed who died of malnutrition near Sheshemene, southern Ethiopia.
Recent crop failures, drought conditions and the current high price of food have plunged Ethiopia into another food crisis, reminiscent of the famines of 1984-85 which killed over 1 million. People have become so desperate for food, they are eating their next harvest's seeds. 4.5 million Ethiopians are in need right now. (Full)

| Ethiopia: Army Commits Executions, Torture, and Rape in Ogaden | | 2008-06-12 14:22:00 | | Donors Should Act to Stop Crimes Against Humanity(Nairobi, June 12, 2008) – In its battle against rebels in eastern Ethiopia’s Somali Region, Ethiopia's army has subjected civilians to executions, torture, and rape, Human Rights Watch said in a new report released today. The widespread violence, part of a vicious counterinsurgency campaign that amounts to war crimes and crimes against humanity, has contributed to a looming humanitarian crisis, threatening the survival of thousands of ethnic Somali nomads.The 130-page report "Collective Punishment: War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity in the Ogaden Area of Ethiopia's Somali Regional State," documents a dramatic rise in unchecked violence against civilians since June 2007, when the Ethiopian army launched a counterinsurgency campaign against rebels who attacked a Chinese-run oil installation. The Human Rights Watch report provides the first in-depth look at the patterns of abuse in a conflict that remains virtually unknown because | | By: Tingplik Express | | |

| | News: Ethiopia's forgotten war | | 2008-04-02 15:56:22 | | Ridwan Hassan Sahid awoke under a pile of corpses to a pricking sensation on her face. Ants were biting her eyelids and the inside of her mouth. The pain, however, brought relief to the 17-year-old. "I thought, 'I'm alive,' " she thought as blood oozing from rope burns around her neck. Fearing that the Ethiopian soldiers who had left her for dead in a roadside ditch would return, she brushed away the ants and shut her eyes, then slipped back into unconsciousness.The brutal assault and her escape mark a chilling story to emerge from an unfolding but hidden tragedy in eastern Ethiopia.Ever since exiting colonialists arbitrarily stuck a triangle-shaped wedge of land with 4 million ethnic Somalis inside Ethiopia's border, violence and suffering have plagued the region. Now, many of them have been caught up in a nasty war between the Ethiopian government and a separatist group known as the Ogaden National Liberation Front, which gets little media attention.
