From the transcript
The old quote often attributed to Mark Twain goes, "The history doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes." Well, right now, events in northern Ethiopia seem determined to repeat with only the bare minimum efforts at rhyming.
Just four years after a shaky piece of agreement entered the Tigray War, one of the bloodiest conflicts of the 21st century, the key players seem determined to relive that experience.
On a northern border, Eritrean troops have been accused of crossing into the shattered region to the south of the federal government of Ethiopia appears to be massing armor, and the Tigray defense forces are mobilizing for a fight.
