However, like many of my countrymen who tasted the brunt of brutal suppression in the most cynical Machiavelli style rule under Meles Zenawi, I do know that what he touches or where he treads will not be peaceful.

And those who think the explosions are the kick of a dying horse had better think twice for a permanent solutoin.
Last but not least, my deep condolences to the families of the Ugandan soldiers who lost their lives.
