The government of Ethiopia is systematically kicking certain ethnic groups off their land, forcing them to settle in villages were they have no life, no farms and no future, in order to sell their land to foreign plantations.

When they object, they are tortured. Ethiopia's government has a close relationship with the US, and invaded Somalia for the US a few years ago.

I don't think the victims of this violence have any obligation to refrain from responding with violence.

Meanwhile, Nigeria plans to evict tens of thousands of people from urban areas, destroying their homes, for "redevelopment".

One of the causes of land conflicts like these is world population growth. Offering gratis contraception and abortion to all women will help to avoid some future conflicts.
