Strict Warning to the Criminal Debretsion Gebremichael TPLF Splinter Group Central Committee Members
The Time for Silence is Over: Stand with Tigray or Be Accountable for Genocide Denial!

To the central committee members of the failed Debretsion Gebremichael TPLF splinter group,

The people of Tigray have endured unspeakable atrocities and a genocide that has shaken the conscience of humanity. Yet, while the world stands in solidarity with Tigray, seeking justice and truth, some among you continue to align yourselves with a man who has not only failed Tigray but actively denies the genocide and the crimes against humanity committed against our people. This silence is a crime in itself.

History will not absolve those who stay silent or refuse to act. Every member of the Debretsion Gebremichael splinter group must immediately decide: will you continue to stand with a leader who has failed his people, who denies the genocide that decimated Tigray, and who aligns with the enemies of Tigray? Or will you take the only just and honorable path — to disassociate from Debretsion Gebremichael, publicly condemn his genocide denial, and stand with the people of Tigray in their pursuit of justice and truth?

This is not just a political decision; this is a moral one. The world is watching. You are either with the people of Tigray in their quest for justice and truth, or you are with those who seek to cover up one of the gravest crimes against humanity — the genocide of the Tigrayan people. There is no middle ground.

Condemn Genocide Denial — A Crime Against Humanity
Denial of genocide is an internationally recognized crime against humanity. It perpetuates the pain and suffering of the victims and enables the perpetrators to continue with impunity. By remaining silent, or worse, by siding with Debretsion Gebremichael, who actively denies the genocide, you are complicit in these crimes. You must understand this truth: silence is complicity.

Each one of you has a duty — a duty to Tigray, to the countless lives lost, to the families who continue to suffer, and to history itself. If you remain silent, if you continue to side with Debretsion Gebremichael, you will be equally accountable and responsible for the crime of genocide denial.

Genocide denial is not a small matter. It is not simply a political issue to be debated or dismissed. It is a fundamental crime that rewrites history and mocks the dead. To continue supporting Debretsion Gebremichael is to betray Tigray and to betray the memory of those who perished in the genocide. The blood of the fallen cries out for justice, not silence.

This is the Time to Decide
We ask you, central committee members of the Debretsion Gebremichael splinter group: will you continue down this path of complicity and betrayal, or will you rise with the people of Tigray, denounce Debretsion Gebremichael’s irresponsible and criminal actions, and stand firmly against genocide denial?

History has no mercy for those who stay silent in the face of atrocity. The people of Tigray will remember who stood by them in their darkest hour, and they will remember who chose to side with the enemy. This is the time to be free. This is the time to stand with the people of Tigray.

Accountability is Inevitable
You must understand that this is not a decision that can be delayed. Every day that you remain silent is a day that you align yourself with the enemies of Tigray. Every moment that you refuse to publicly condemn Debretsion Gebremichael’s crimes and genocide denial, you move further from the people of Tigray and closer to being complicit in the crime of genocide denial.

The time is urgent. The world is watching, and the people of Tigray are watching. Will you choose to protect your political allegiances, or will you choose to stand for truth, justice, and the people of Tigray?

The People of Tigray Demand Justice
The people of Tigray are crying out for justice. They demand accountability, not only from those who directly perpetrated the genocide but also from those who deny it. Denial of the Tigray genocide is denial of our pain, our suffering, and our very existence.

You have a choice. You can stand with the people of Tigray, or you can stand with the criminals who have betrayed us. Do not be fooled — there is no safety in silence. There is no escape from accountability. Those who deny the genocide, or who remain silent, will face the full weight of international justice and the judgment of history.

Choose Justice, Condemn Debretsion Gebremichael
This is your moment to act. Condemn Debretsion Gebremichael publicly, disassociate yourself from his criminal splinter group, and stand with the people of Tigray. If you do not, you will be forever remembered as having sided with the enemies of Tigray, as having supported a regime that denied the very genocide of its people. You will be remembered not for your silence but for your complicity.

This is the time for courage. This is the time for justice. This is the time for Tigray.

SilenceIsBetrayal! Stand with Tigray or be Forever Complicit!

DebretsionGebremichaelDeniesTheGenocide — Will You?

NoMoreExcuses. No More Silence. Justice for Tigray Now!

The people of Tigray are watching. The world is watching. The time for silence is over.

Act Now — Or Be Held Accountable
This is your final warning. Either you stand with Tigray and condemn Debretsion Gebremichael’s genocide denial, or you stand with him and face the consequences. There is no neutrality when it comes to genocide denial. There is no neutrality when it comes to the truth. You must act now, or you will be judged equally responsible for the crimes committed against Tigray.

The choice is yours.
Stand with Tigray — or stand with the criminal Debretsion Gebremichael.
