(continued from previous page)<br />

The forced relocation of residents of Gambella has caused<br />

great hardship to tens of thousands including rape, other<br />

violent acts, coercion, and intimidation. We do not believe<br />

that USAID should support such endeavors and ask for<br />

due diligence in respect to the human rights of the people<br />

of Gambella.<br />

The US government should not condone these horrific acts<br />

as the price Ethiopians must pay for development and food<br />

security in Ethiopia. We ask you to look at the facts<br />

regarding the kind of investments occurring in Ethiopia and<br />

to ensure US assistance actually benefits local<br />

communities and not just the interests of a minority.<br />

we stand for our motherland<br />
