Thank you for replying Mr. Ambassador...but your claim is in contradiction with what state media, the company and even three officials involved with the deal (Andargie Bekele, Mulugeta Seid Samuel Urkato) have said. Firstly...

The study is but part of an agreement...which includes as detailed by @fanatelevision the construction, an effort involving Korean company Hyundai and costing 3.6 billion. The citing of Hyundai's involvement clearly indicates a settlement on a deal to push on with construction.
As was reported by Kaleyesus Bekele of @TheReporterET in 2018....Greencomm's proposal was not limited to a study....in fact they initially evaluated the project at 2 billion$. This reveals that the Ethiopian government was acquainted with the proposal and the company in 2018.
Mr. Ambassador...a government run oil corporate official claimed in 2018 that Greencomm Technologies was vetted & deemed worthy of accomodating. We now know this clearly was not the case. How did this official & the Ministry deem a company with no office, no experience "viable?"
In addition to what the company and government officials claimed to me both publicly and in interviews....local outlets also highlighted that the deal is an agreement that would see on the ground construction work of the oil refinery.
Mr. Ambassador...the easiest thing here would be to simply publish the legal document containing the signatures of Harlem jazz club owner Emmanuel Mekuria & former Minister of Mines and Petroleum @SAMUELURKATOKUR. This is definitely in the public interest!
Lastly Mr. Ambassador....an official at the state run biofuel corp stated that you are acquainted with Greencomm's leadership, something company exec Warren Negri also claims. Did it perhaps skew your ability to see that there was an attempt at defrauding the country here?
I'm not distorting anything when I say that Ethiopia signed a deal with a company that stole the image of an elderly Korean charity worker who can't write in English properly...and claimed he was an experienced CEO with 50 years in the oil industry.
ለማንኛውም Merry Christmas Mr. Ambassador. Sorry if this disrupted your cycle...but in no way could I notice such glaring ridiculousness as this and not pursue the story. Two years of interaction with Greencomm...and nobody in government, flagged ANY of this.
PS....Greencomm Technologies explicitly declaring on their website....that they intend on completing a little more than just a study.

I don't normally do threads like this but I did want to provide some deeper thoughts on the below and why having a video game based on a real world war crime from the same people that received CIA funding isn't the best idea.

This will go pretty in depth FYI.


The core reason why I'm doing this thread is because:

1. It's clear the developers are marketing the game a certain way.

2. This is based on something that actually happened, a war crime no less. I don't have issues with shooter games in general ofc.

Firstly, It's important to acknowledge that the Iraq war was an illegal war, based on lies, a desire for regime change and control of resources in the region.

These were lies that people believed and still believe to this day.

It's also important to mention that the action taken by these aggressors is the reason there was a battle in Fallujah in the first place. People became resistance fighters because they were left with nothing but death and destruction all around them after the illegal invasion.

This is where one of the first red flags comes up.

The game is very much from an American point of view, as shown in the description.

When it mentions Iraqi civilians, it doesn't talk about them as victims, but mentions them as being pro US, fighting alongside them.

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹

I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):


The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹


Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹


References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹
The YouTube algorithm that I helped build in 2011 still recommends the flat earth theory by the *hundreds of millions*. This investigation by @RawStory shows some of the real-life consequences of this badly designed AI.


This spring at SxSW, @SusanWojcicki promised "Wikipedia snippets" on debated videos. But they didn't put them on flat earth videos, and instead @YouTube is promoting merchandising such as "NASA lies - Never Trust a Snake". 2/
