Freelance journalist Doug McGill, a former New York Times reporter, argues
that Ethiopian dictator Meles Zenawi should not be allowed to represent all
of Africa at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP15). Also
interviewed: Ethiopian immigrant Magn Nyang, PhD, who speaks of the genocide
in his native Anuak region in 2003.

Environmental destruction in Ethiopia (video)
December 6th, 2009
For the next few days the eye of the world will be focused on the City of
Copenhagen, Denmark. Leaders from 192 counties will gather to discuss how to
protect the earth's climate from heating up. African thieves and murderers
have appointed one of their own, Meles Zenawi, to represent them at the
Conference. The minute he was named to represent African despots, Meles has
started to accuse developed countries of producing climate-warming
pollutions and demanded billions of dollars in compensation. Transferring
blame is second nature to Ethiopia's genocidal tyrant. In 2005, after he
ordered his death squads to gun down pro-democracy protesters, he blamed the
massacre on the opposition party leaders and put them in jail. The following
2-part film shows the environmental disaster that is being caused by Meles
Zenawi's regime at one of Ethiopia's many lakes. It is a must watch
documentary for all the participants of theCopenhagen Climate Conference.
