"People of my country and especially my faithful soldiers!
No human lips can express the thankful-ness which I feel to the merciful Egziabier who has enable I to stand in your midst on this day of which the Angels in heaven and the Creation on Earth could neither have thought of nor known. Before everything else I want to tell you and to make you understand that this day is a day on which a fresh chapter of the history of the new Ethiopia begins.

"People of my Country, Ethiopia!
Today is a day on which Ethiopia is stretching her hands to Egziabier in joy and thankfulness and revealing her happiness to her children.
This day on which the people of Ethiopia are freed from oppressive foreign yoke and eternal servitude and on which I am enabled to rejoin my people, whom I love and have longed for, will be honoured as a holiday to be commemorated annually as a great Ethiopian Anniversary. On this day we shall remember those heroic warriors who determined not to surrender the great charge passed on to them by their Father, became sacrifices, shedding their blood and breaking their bones for the freedom of the land they loved and for the honour of their Emperor and their flag. The history of Ethiopia will be witness for these our warriors".
Take care not to spoil the good name of Ethiopia by acts which are worthy of the enemy. We shall see that our enemies are disarmed and sent the same way they came. As St. George who killed the dragon is the Patron Saint of our Army as well as of our allies, let us unite with our allies in everlasting friendship and amity in order to be able to stand against the godless and cruel dragon which has newly risen and which is oppressing mankind. I charge you to consider them as a brother and a friend and to show them kindness and consideration.

H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I, King of King, Mighty Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Elect of Himself. RASTAFARI Liveth!

Give thanks for Life and to be in the Gates of Zion in this Armageddon time. It is again a beautiful morning here in Addis Ababa at Megabit Hiya Sabat Square to celebrate "Victory Day" with the many living Patriarchs and Matriarchs of both the Ethio-Italian War and the Korean War. The President of Ethiopia graced the ceremony with his presence and gave a speech exemplifying Ethiopia's gratitude to her many warriors.

Blessed Love,
RasTafarI Liveth.
Ras Wolde Selassie-Tagas King,
EWF Addis Ababa
