Travel Guide | February 24, 2013 Ethiopians in Atlanta condemn fascist Italian war crimes Ethiomedia; February 24, 2013 ATLANTA, Georgia – Protesting in front of CNN HQs and the Italian Consulate, Ethiopians condemned the erection of a monument for Rudolf Graziani, aka “The Butcher of Ethiopia” for his war crimes during fascist Italy’s invasion of Ethiopia (1935-41), during which time Graziani used poison gas and killed over 750,000 Ethiopians. Kidane Alemayehu aptly put it: “It is quite interesting to note that the Honorary Consul-General, H.E. Ms. Angela della Constanza Turner, made such a positive statement including her personal embarrassment by the fact that a mausoleum was installed for a Fascist criminal. She also stated that her view was shared by the Italian embassy diplomats.” Ethiomedia.com – An African-American news and views website. Copyright 2012 Ethiomedia.com.
