It's just not even really comparable. Just look at some of the sports stadiums being built in the states. Most countries would dream of even having one example and America has dozens.

At minimum there should be a guarantee by Ethiopia to ensure a reasonable amount of water is allowed to flow - once the reservoir is full, the river can flow more freely, and Egypt can use Lake Nasser for their purposes, but at least there will be enough water for all along the river. For Ethiopia to strangle off the river it will take more than just flipping a switch, because there are many Ethiopians along the river too, and they would be the first to suffer. The dam needed to be built because it is a necessary infrastructure for the developing nation and it is a source of great national pride, it will make life better for many people. There is no reason to make life worse for millions of others just because they live downstream, and Ethiopia has pledged to allow the river to flow once the reservoir is full - I would urge patience, even though no one seems to have much of it these days.

@RockAndRollOne You have a very odd sense of Human migration. Pacific Islanders are a lower branch of the Australoid stem that drops down from the Asian racial group. The northern branch of that group formed what is known as the American Indian tribes. The southern branch that made it's way to South America formed the pool for the Inca stock. While both hail from the Asian racial group there are variations in them but neither of them came FROM America. They migrated TO America. The American tribes were defeated in war. As a conquered people they have a choice, move out of the way of the conqueror, assimilate with the conqueror or die. The various tribes did all three and often a combination of those choices. But the only way people are born in Hawaii are native American is that everyone born within the political confines of the USA are native to America regardless of their race - Asian, Australoid, Black or White.
