Young Lion, why don't you post exactly what Haile Selassie I said and the surrounding sentences. You have often times in the past misquoted Selassie I or have taken His Word out of context, or stretched his word away from the true meaning.
Haile Selassie I made Ethiopia Friends with many Nations, for the purposes of Initing people, and building a foundation to grow strong together.
Selassie I show I and I.

By the word "neutral" We do not, of course, mean that abstention from political activity which has been for so long the hallmark of a Switzerland. We can no more refrain from political activity in the year 1961 than man today can voluntarily refrain from partaking of the radioactive fall-out which will be bestowed upon him should a nuclear holocaust erupt on this globe. Nor does neutrality mean that without taking sides, we content ourselves with urging that the powers most intimately concerned negotiate in good faith to the solution of the issues in dispute between them; we have passed the point where prayerful pleading serves any purpose other than to debase those who thereby abdicate any responsibility or power to influence events.
To be neutral is to be impartial, impartial to judge actions and policies objectively, as we see them either contributing to or detracting from the resolution of the world's problems, the preservation of peace and the improvement of the general level of man's living conditions. Thus, we may find ourselves now opposing, now supporting. now voting with, now voting against, first the East, next the West. It is the worth of the policies themselves, and not their source or sponsor, which determines the position of one who is truly neutral.
This, We maintain, is the essence of non-alignment. Those who would righteously denounce one side on every major problem or issue while reserving nothing but praise for the other cannot claim to be non-aligned, nor can those whose policies are shaped for them elsewhere and who wait patiently to be instructed whether they are to be for or against be called uncommitted.

Stop using Selassie I as and excuse for you to turn a blind eye to the wickedness of babylon, whether it be the England kind or United States kind, or any other Nation kind. Selassie I is not an excuse for you to ignore the things that happen in this world, Selassie I Teaches Responsibility, not ignorance. Look at everything that Selassie I Teaches, not just the parts that you like to see. You have wavered so many times against Selassie I, so if you say you are with Selassie I again, then this time around, study all His Words and take it slow, so you Iverstand what He is saying.
Look at the things done by people and nations and determine your position based on that, so if they do something good, call it good, if they do something wicked, call it wicked.
