The Fight With TPLF is an Internal Fight, needs to be treated as such

I am sickened that people tend to treat the current conflict between TPLF and the central government as an external conflict and the victory gained over TPLF as if that was over an external adversary, which it is not.
Because of this reality we should be careful with the way we treat those who decided to be on the other side of the devide, no matter how vicious their act was and the pain on the side of the Ethiopian people no less than that of a one which would have been inflicted by an external enemy.
TPLF as party may have got different views and opinions with regard to Ethiopia, some may consider themselves not Ethiopians, wanted to be liberated long time ago, but then decided to stay on and su*ck the resources of the country they hate so much. At the same time there are also true Ethiopians in TPLF and they might have been overwhelmed by those in the other side of the devide to push their ajenda forward. We know, for example, that there were many in the TPLF who supported the current change and sided with those parties for change in EPRDF and opted for change instead of adhereing with the position of the TPLF itself in the coalation.
In any case Tigray is not an enemy of Ethiopia, Tigray is part of Ethiopia and many Tigrians are no less Ethiopians than, say, the Oromos are, the Amharas are, the Gambellas are etc. And they deserved to be also treated as such, no one should feel him/herself entitled to somehow demonize or treat with any kind of contempt and try to look down on a Tigrean. There are many arrogants, who are tempted to treat them this way, unfortunately, and they need to be told to stop.
Treat the veteran with due care and don't let them feel that they fehl in the hands of their enemy, we are their country fellows whom they betrayed and bring them to face justice with due care, not necessarily for their own sake but for the sake of the wider tigrean people.
I do understand the pain of many Ethiopians, I do have a relative who was disappeared and never has been seen ever since for over 25 years now and many of these criminals are responsible for such practices and they deserved to be treated the way they are being treated right now in the media of some corners or even worth. They denied justice to others but they will face justice, that is already a big difference.
Still we should care about our Tigrean compatriots and we shouldn't make them feel badlof the rest of Ethiopians.
They made a very big mistake in trying to attack their own country and its most sacred institution but we have to reciprocate in kind and show them we can still treat them differently, because we are not on their level and we do care about Tigray people even in the face of those infidels from their wombs.
TPLF will be gone very soon, but Tigray as Ethiopia will over live this dark episode of the shame those from its own wombs brought up on its people and rise again to be the shining star of the future Ethiopia.
There is an Oromo proverb which states that "you can't cut and throw away your own finger just becaue it has got rotten".
It is unfortunate part of our long history and needs due care to reduce the side-effects for the future.
