This tweet done on 8th March by the US Embassy warning American citizens to avoid Bole international airport on 10th March is a pointer that the United States of America knew something about a possible plane crash or terror attack or a serious security concern.
Questions are bound to be asked especially to local security agencies if they may have ignored crucial intelligence shared by the Americans.
The Office of the PM, on behalf of the Government and people of Ethiopia, would like to express it’s deepest condolences to the families of those that have lost their loved ones on Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 on regular scheduled flight to Nairobi, Kenya this morning.

The headline: “Exposed: US Embassy knew about Ethiopian Airlines crash 2 days before” is inaccurate and poor journalism, Your headline said they KNEW about the crash with no attribution as if that were a fact. Implying that a warning about a demonstration is a “pointer” as you call it (not a journalistic word in this context) to their prior awareness that a crash would happen is tabloid journalism and it’s particularly sad sensationalizing a tragedy to tantalize your readership

The tweet you refer to was about avoiding protests on the ground in the area of the airport in Addis, and if you read it it advised against people coming and going on ALL flights departing and arriving at Addis simply because of the potential for protests outside the airport. Your headline is deliberately misleading and completely false. This isn’t journalism it’s silliness.

True. What everyone is failing to mention is that, only a couple of months ago, another Norwegian airlines 737 Max went down over Iran. Fortunately they were able to do an emergency landing in Shiraz but it was stuck there for weeks because of the dumb, crooked, Americans and they’re moronic loyalties to “israel”. This plane is extremely dangerous unreliable junk. everyone would be grounding it now if the media was not so quick to turn this into a 737 commercial
