      Exactly! and they looted the Congo so much that it created a whole rubber industry for Europe. They still consider small hand shaped chocolates a snack. They are shaped like hands because the Belgians would chop off their hands if the Congolese didn't bring them certain amount of rubber.

    I am Eritrean. My grandfather is 102. I grew up being told that it was a great time during Haile Slassie, without undermining any challenges or mistakes that existed at the time. We can not judge a 60 year old leadership based on current period. All must be seen in the context of its time. My narrative and understanding will never be broken by the European neo-liberal colonialists. History must be told by the very people who own the history. Haile Slassie promoted Education and awarded so many scholarships at the time. Education was one of the best in his time. The decolonization of the mind is required.

      France's corrupt leader, along with the UN/Nato forces , Hillery and Obama , undermined and overthrew Gadaffi, of whom might have been thought a terrorist dictator, but had renounced terrorism, shook Obama's hand, and got backstabbed for being more open with European countries. Some of the things that did not make the news previously were than Gadaffi (not sure of the correct spelling as I have seen his name spelled several different ways) ... preferred living simply , even in a tent, over having a massive, ornate palace, used oil revenues to grant government services to his people (unlike other always will fail socialist schemes), upgraded the land with a network of efficient canals, was going to mint gold coins for a monetary standard, and sought as a goal, to bring the living standards for all of Africa to be raised up.

Racism through imperialism/colonialism and western ideologies destroyed Africa’s traditional institutions that should have been kept. You only hate monarchy because you are in the West. The West may not want its monarch’s anymore but African Civilisation and Southeast Asian Nations say otherwise.

DEMOCRACY is important!!!! He had to fight with the Nobality in order to educate his people, that is what monarchy does, keep people down so the ritch and powerful are the only once in charge. As we say in the 21st century, "no taxation without representation"!!!!!

      There's a UN Declaration in the Rights of Peasants (UNDROP)that passed in 2018. A peasant is not quite the same as a farmer, it specifically means small-scale or subsistence farmers who are often tenants of landlords. It's also the official translation of the Spanish word "campesina".
      In India the term peasant is often used in English without any negative connotation. There's an International Peasants Movement that proudly use that name. I think it's just in the West where there are traditional peasantry anymore that the word is derogatory.

    From among many of his contributions; Emperor Haile Selassie did not steal money from the Ethiopian people; Emperor Haaile Selassie did not make Ethiopia land locked,
    Emperor Haile Selassie did not propagate tribalism and ethnic conflicts. Emperor Haile Selassie did not take land away from the Ethiopian people. Almost all the primary and secondary schools, and the first two Universities in Ethiopia started during Emperor Haile Selassie's time. Emperor Haile Selassie founded the 1st Airline (EAL) in Africa. He founded Harar Military SAcademy; the Ethiopian Navy and The Ethiopian Airforce. At least the airport in Addis and the University, should retain their original name: Haile Selassie Airport; and Haile Selassie University.
    He was a God fearing inspiring leader for us and humanity by large.

      3rd) hailer Selassie destroyed eritera by forcing to be part of ethiopia controlled in his hand leading to 35y war started by him only ended with eprdf 18% of ethiopia GDP was wasted in milltary wepion.
      5) majority wanted ethnic feddalism but Hailer rejected and start creating amhara settlement,famines,booming , high tax, reject other faith outside Orthodox & languages. Why do u think majority supported derg when derg killed him ' took over because they where helping for demrocey.
      Why do u think eritera celebrated in 1993 when it came independent because they never where part of ethiopia. Hailer Selassie brought more nightmare then peace.

      That is why they have produced this propaganda piece, pretending to be
      an unbiased look.
      They are basically calling H.I.M. a mad man without saying those words.
      On one hand they show that He built so many progressive and humanitarian institutions yet they claim that such an enlightened person would purposefully
      allow His countrymen to starve.

How hard is it to keep 80+ tribes from warring while keeping the Europeans at bay in a time where world wars are going on and the scramble for Africa.

Religion, is whatever people want it to be. A great amount of the Christian bible, was taken from the book of the dead.
      A completely different religion and faith; who worshipped completely different gods. What's important is that these descendants of slaves; who had their own religion and beliefs taken away; took ownership and made up their own religion, in their own image.

    Haile Sellassie was way more of a complex person then this report portrays. Of course, colonialism, war atrocities and war crimes which he fought and which seriously affecting his options are not mentioned. British attempts to colonize Ethiopia, for example, after “liberation” in 1941. Complex, huge topic not captured by this report.

    There is also a statue of him in Richmond Park, South West London.
    He also resided in London's Europa Hotel which was owned by a prominent British Jew Sir Michael Joseph in 1974. The Hotel was sighted on Grosvenor Square adjacent to the US Embassy.
    It was attacked by the PLO who had their sights on the EL AL Israeli cabin crew that frequently resided there. One can still see the bullet holes in its facade.
    One of his descendants was living amongst a Rastafarian community in Manchester, England a while back.
