R.I.P. All lost lives due to the crush, and my condolences to their families. Even though my country is affected by greater number of lose, my heart goes out for all nationalities on board. Off course this alone will never be reason enough for any of us to judge the best airliner in Africa, even better than some of European airliners. Due to my business nature I have used a number of airliners, but always amazed by this EA, their commitment in maintaining the the safety of their flight. That’s why with all my flights to AFRICA, Ethiopian airlines is my first choice. My friends & business associates also share the same feeling. We’ll also continue to use the Ethiopian Airlines in the future.

God bless Lebnan.

God be with you and your loved ones

My heart and prayers go out to the families who lost loved ones. I pray for strength and peace of mind for each person that has felt this tragedy.

I do not know what to say but we lost our people. I eagerly expect the result of the data recorder box. I believe in Ethiopian air lines there is no technical problem in the plane. But I hope there is something behind it

Deeply saden by the accident and let my prayer goes to all families of the loved ones. My best wish should also goes to the committement, efficiency and an outstanding performance of Ethiopian Airlines so far there been continue with so much safety.

God give the families of the lost and innocent people patience and strength, and allow these souls to rest in peace for all eternity. May god also always look over and bless both the people of Lebanon and Ethiopia and further away any danger like this again. Amen & R.I.P.

It was heart breaking events in the aviation history of Ethiopia. Really very sorry. May God give you strength for those families lost their relatives.
God Bless Ethiopia!!

I am rely sorry for the accident
I hope God keep at least one person to tell about an accident.
God bless our world!!!

I am deeply sorry for all the families who had lost your loved ones. Let God be with you and comfort you. I will pray for you.

Am really sorry for the accident. But, what is important is to know how it happened. This is because on the one hand the pilot has a 20 yrs experience and on the other the Lebanon officialls said it was the mistake of pilot while allowing his take off in such a bad weather. The issue is serious though will never affect the glory of the airline. What if something happened inside? needs an enormous research and explanation

God may have mercy on their souls

by the way .. where is Palestine on the map ??

I am very very sory for who they lost their life.I am realy waiting to know why,how it happens.I love Ethiopia .may god bless Ethiopia forever.may god give strength for the one who lost their relatives by plan crash(Ethiopian&others)

I’m not surprised. I don’t understand why pilots continue to fly in very bad weather. If you are warned of a dangerous storm, PLEASE think of your passengers and don’t put them in danger. Those poor people and children.

I am one of the victem I lost my beloved sister…. I wish for all of you to rest in pease ….. MIMI/SEBLE “We are everywhere but together forever”

Sara a pilot is not a taxi driver who makes his own decisions-the plane alone is worth several million $US..but of course lebanese authorities won’t blame the crash on subotage and Ethiopian government won’t blame it on maintainance..even after finding the black boxes and long investigation the public wont know the truth for sure..as tthe lebanese saying goes ‘ra7it ala eliraa7′

Condolences to all victims
ان لله وان اليه راجعون

Very shocking news! Lot of people entering a plane with dreams to reach safer. But its fate always a villain. This incident makes me to think, how small we are…
May their soul rest in peace!
Our deepest condolences.

i agree with DALAL

at least we all know that the crisis gathers the lebanese people,and they really cares, they all realises that we are lebanese and lebanese we will remain,we are born lebanese and dies lebanese dropping everything… R I P….
my deepest condolenses to the families of the victims,lebanese and ethiopeans,and others..

It was a tragic accident I am deadly sure that it was neither Pilot’s error nor technical fault,may God bring justice for us

R.I.P for all on board passengers,my deepest condolence for all citizens and their families also for Ethiopian Airlines teams.

hope this shit happens to america and isreal too cause they were behind all this

There were eighty-two passengers and eight crewmembers. Twenty-two of the passengers were Ethiopians returning home from Lebanon. As far as the foreign press is concerned they were ordinary passengers. Business people or vacationers returning home. But we Ethiopians know better. It was no surprise to us that they were all women. No one has to tell us they will all be young. We have close relatives like that all over the Middle East. They are the surplus Ethiopians.

This group of Ethiopians returned home in a body bag. Some will stay in the Mediterranean. All will have a special place in our hearts. On the other hand, talk to any Ethiopian Airlines employee and they will tell you the horror stories of the returnees from the Middle East. The trip back home should be renamed the ‘horror express’. Some return with deep psychological scars, some with visible body scars and some in a casket. Some sit there like zombies unable to talk, afraid to move, unsure of themselves. Some come back home to die. They will never recover from the deep humiliation and abuse.

They all go there to better themselves and their family. There used to be a long line stretching all the way to the street and sidewalk in front of the old courthouse in Ledeta. It was a line of girls registering a name change to go to the Middle East. Having a Muslim name was a plus. Then came Woyane and institutionalized the process. They called it employment opportunity and started to charge for the service. Woyane makes a lot of money selling citizens. It is a very lucrative business. It is true they started selling maids to the Middle East before they graduated to selling children to the West in the so-called ‘adoption’ scam.

So our sisters flock to the Middle East to make something of their life. In Lebanon, Dubai, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia etc. they join others like them from the Far East in perpetual servitude. They enter a region with no laws, minimal view of human rights and total absence of justice. The plight of our people in the Middle East is an open secret. The suffering and humiliation have been told and retold plenty of times. They jump from high-rise building and kill themselves. They kill their tormentors in self-defense. Unable to understand their agony their brain shuts off.

So the ones that died in the accident are the carriers of this horror. Despite all this happening to them, our sisters are on of the highest contributors to Woyane’s 10% growth that is told and retold again and again. Let us take Lebanon by itself. They say there are over twenty-five thousand Ethiopians working there. Let us assume each one sends US $100.00 per month. That is US$ 2.5 million per month and US $30 million a year. In Ethiopia that will be $390 million Birr. A lot of money if you ask me. That is what you would call a cash cow.

How does the government appreciate the contribution of these citizens that cling to their motherland despite the threat to their well-being? Silence and indifference is their response. So it was a surprise to see the Woyane foreign minister in Beirut after the accident. There he was sitting with the Lebanese prime minister. ‘Why did he go there?’ is a good question? Did he go there to gather his people around him and console them in this time of grief? Did he go to meet with friend and family of the victims and tell them their government’s commitment to help in the search and rescue effort? Did he go there to give them moral strength? Did he go there to hold their hands and be with them? I am afraid the answer is none of the above. In Woyane’s Ethiopia, those who rule don’t mingle with ordinary Ethiopians. His Excellency does not have time for uneducated simple maids.

Then why did he go? Well, he went there in his capacity as Board Chairman of Ethiopian Airlines. Yes, he is the Chairman of the Board. Don’t ask what his qualifications are for such a high post. Does his resume show his talent in managing a little kiosk? Does it show his education and capacity for such a demanding job? Does he have a track record of running a business? The answer is none of the above. His qualification is his membership in TPLF. Thus he went there because some Lebanese officials used to degrading our Ethiopian sisters upgraded their contempt and questioned the skill of the pilots and crew. The Foreign Minister went there to calm the nerves of the Lebanese officials. He went there to protect the integrity of his cash cow called Ethiopian Airlines. Why they don’t change the name to ‘Woyane Airlines’ is a mystery. The only thing Ethiopian is the name. In America, they call it truth in advertising.

Thus it was no surprise to see my Diaspora friends decrying the racism of the Lebanese in the ill-treatment of those in grief. Despite the fact that we’ve for long known the horrible conditions Ethiopian guest workers are subjected to in countries like Lebanon, some choose to vent our rage on the people of Lebanon. I agree with Fekade, it is totally ‘a misplaced rage’. Our rage should be directed at those that allow such conditions to exist. Our indignations should be directed at the root of the problem. We should be careful in our wholesale condemnation of the Lebanese people.

We should be aware that there still are over twenty-five thousand of our people working there. We don’t want to contribute to their further ill-treatment. Our quarrel is with the TPLF regime that considers the rest of us trespassers in our own land. We fix our house first, and the world will shower us with respect and love. As Henry Thoreau said, “There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root.” Don’t tell me you are still hacking at the branches! That is so yesterday, my friend. Rage against Lebanon is hacking at the branch.

May God bless their souls to all…..
