https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/hundreds-reportedly-dead-after-massacre-at-oriental-orthodox-church-in-ethiopia-51752 Locals have said they believe the church was targeted by raiders of the lost ark. The church is thought to contain the original Ark of the Covenant, a sacred golden chest first mentioned in the book of Exodus that carried the 10 commandments, parts of sacred scripture, Aaron’s rod, and a pot of manna. They believed the attackers wanted to steal the Ark of the Covenant and take it to the capital city of Addis Ababa, the Church Times reported. This ark is guided by a single priest who never leaves the compound, and it is not allowed to be seen by anyone else, so whether it is really the true Ark has been debated by historians for centuries.

I think 750 dead would be the largest single massacre of the Tigray conflict so far. International media is focused on the religious angle, but it seems like in Ethiopia it'll probably be a bigger deal that the perpetrators are said to include Amhara militias. also, interesting to note the Economists position https://twitter.com/TheEconomist/status/1352675411675783169?s=20

It seems like Catholics globally are focusing on the church massacre as a religious rights issues. For example, Poland made a statement ad the US Conference of Bishops commented with a tweet.quote:We strongly condemn the perpetrators of this barbaric crime committed in a place of worship. We expect the Ethiopian authorities to immediately take all possible measures to clarify its circumstances and punish the perpetrators. https://twitter.com/USCCB/status/1352293705668059136?s=20

I imagine it's leverage for something like Yemen. So we'll restore arms sales once they promise to It was like the same thing at the same time of the Obama administration with Israeli settlements.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jun/09/canada-doubles-weapons-sales-to-saudi-arabia-despite-moratoriumquote:Newly released figures show Canada sold nearly C$3bn (US$2.2bn) worth of military equipment to Saudi Arabia in 2019 – more than double the total of the previous year, reported the Globe and Mail. The bulk of the exports were light armoured vehicles, part of a deal with the Saudis worth C$14.8bn. lmao I didn't even know this is what happened. I just remember news stories saying the sales were suspended. Turns out suspend means the opposite of what I thought it did.

I want to see more than words on this, but that might be one genuinely good thing Biden does. If he does. Reminds me that Isa Blumi's narrative of the Yemen kind of starts with VP Joe "Credit Cards" Biden telling the Saudis that credit is running out.
