Il y a 40 ans, en septembre 1974, le DERG, une junte militaire révolutionnaire inspirée par le marxisme et dirigée par le sinistre et sanguinaire Mengistu Hailé Mariam, qui sera condamné à mort par contumace pour génocide en 2008, mettait fin au régime féodal de l’Empereur #Hailé Sélassié 1er, souverain d’Ethiopie. Roi des Rois, Lion de la Tribu de Juda. Jah Rastafari.
In mémorian
War (#Bob Marley inspiré du discours du Négus prononcé devant les Nations-Unies en 1963)
Until the philosophy which holds one race
Superior and another inferior
Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned
Everywhere is war, me say war
That until there is no longer first class
And second class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man’s skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war
That until the basic human rights are equally
Guaranteed to all, without regard to raceDis a war
That until that day
The dream of lasting peace, world citizenship
Rule of international morality
Will remain in but a fleeting illusion
To be pursued, but never attained
Now everywhere is war, war
And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes
That hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique,
South Africa sub-human bondage
Have been toppled, utterly destroyed
Well, everywhere is war, me say war
War in the east, war in the west
War up north, war down south
War, war, rumours of war
And until that day, the African continent
Will not know peace, we Africans will fight
We find it necessary and we know we shall win
As we are confident in the victory
Of good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
Good over evil, good over evil, good over evil
