ND – MPE: 1.4

White cites estimates for the number of people killed by Mengistu Haile’s regime in Ethiopia, which range from 1.5 to 2 million. 1 million died in a famine, which was to a large degree the result of criminal government policies. Roughly 0.2 to 0.4 million died in wars.

Plausible estimates for the number of innocent people killed by the communist regime range from 1 to 2 million. I choose 1.4 million victims as the most plausible estimate.

The United States supported the Derg regime in the beginning. Israel supported the regime with money, weapons and training.
