The previous poster is sorely misinformed. HR 2003 was not passed unanimously, but by voice vote – as Mr. Poole noted in his article. HR 2243 (the previous incarnation of HR 2003) could not even get voted out of committee because it was recognized as detrimental to Ethiopian and American interests.

The only supporters of this bill seems to be Democrats who want to harm the US-led War on Terror, US-based enthusiasts of the terror-backed Ethiopian political opposition (who have no reservations about using terror and violence to achieve their politicals goals, like in 2005), and supporters of the al-Qaeda-allied Somali Islamic Courts Union. They are the only ones benefitted by HR 2003, not Ethiopians themselves.
