  1. There is no need for debate for both are two faces of one coin. They are both correct. Only that Elias needs to cut himself from the Ayder kids killer Isayas wedi-afom. With Isayas as an advisor, Elias will not succeed. And if he succeeds he will lead us into another tyranny. Isayas and Meles are one, no matter what!

  2. It will be interesting debate in a sense who knows the fearless Elias might put everything on the table and unmask Siye’s,I mean Abraha’s, crooked Wayanes heart for all to see.

  3. different strategy and action for one goal, we all know elias is a straight forward guy but i don’t trust that belay guy, he is alaways on woyane side.

  4. qizhetam Mezgebe,

    Isaias did not kill your Ider kids. Meles did. And don’t worry to be governed by “Dictator” Isaias for he has no intention of governing the ungovernable. Besides Isaias is an Eritrean and your Meles is whatever he decides to be he thinks he can be…

  5. Hi Elyas,

    I am always suspcious of Abrha Belay of being TPLF Agent. WOuld you research before the discussion and tell put it out during the discussion?
    I will be there.

  6. The discussion should include the immediate problem Ethiopia is facing: the outburst of the Muslim population.

    I will not be there to avoid a religious war!

  7. Assta B. Getu
    You r always provoking the Ethiopian People with sensitive issue.
    The Ethiopian people know how to live together both muslims and christians.
    So, don’t try to be catalyst. I dought your being an Ethiopian.
    Zip-up your poisonous tongue.

  8. This really positive for the Ethiopian community. It sets an example that political differences can be gapped through discussion and engagement. Fantastic!

    Woyane should watch this as an example of how true democrats supposed to behave. Clash of ideas should lead to murder or prison, but to more sincere discussion.

    I have commented before on your top ethio websites list. PPL who are doing positive things should be commended. And this is positive.

    It is much better than insulting each other for no reason.

  9. Anonymous #12,

    In a Christian and free country, there are no such things as sensitive issues; if you try to hide them or cover them up now, they will show up at any time: “The time is coming when everything that is covered up will be revealed, and all that is secret will be made known to all.” (Luke 12:2) It will be easier to talk about issues you think are sensitive than to prolong such issues for tomorrow or for the next year. Those people who don’t want to talk about sensitive issues are those who think they will lose the benefits they are getting under the cover of the sensitive issues. Yes, to say openly that Meles Seitanawi (Zenawi) is a corrupt leader is a sensitive issue, or to say that many Ethiopian children go to bed hungry is a sensitive issue; therefore, we should not talk about it according to sensitive-issues advocate, Mr. Anonymous. No, we should bring them to the public and find solutions for each sensitive issue; we cannot ignore them because they are religious issues. Our country is a Christian country, and as such it has the right to protect its Christianity from the false religion, Islam. If there is anyone who wants to prove Islam is not a false religion, then let us see him/her defend Islam. Christianity is not a sensitive issue that can be ignored and put aside. Christianity is a well-confirmed and recognized religion in Ethiopia, but Islam is a sensitive issue because its followers will easily get embarrassed when someone tells them the whole story about their false prophet Muhammad. If Islam were a true religion like Christianity is, then Islam would not be a sensitive issue. If Islam had a true history, the Muslims would be proud to come forward and discuss it with the Christians, but they don’t.

  10. Elias:

    You did well in the debate by presenting the facts against the duplicity of those who have recently been presenting themselves as more concerned Ethiopians, let alone more than those activists who have consistent track record.

    For Solidarity & Peace among the peoples of the Horn.!!!!

  11. I am pretty sure Abraha Belai is taking part in this this discussion out of respect for the greater audience. Otherwise, no one should take Elias Kifle seriously. I for one have shunned him as moronic idiot long ago.

  12. Assta B Gettu, I am a christian myself but I don’t think it is fair to say ethiopai is a christain country since 45% of the people is muslim. We lived together for so long to respect eachother and to live peacfuly. We still have a huge issu to deal with which woyane brought 20 years a go which is ethinc issu. If you think islamism is an issu in ethiopia lets solve one problem at a time. Unless you are woyane and trying to distroy the country ( I am not accusing you or saying you are woyane) with both ethinc and religous war, I don’t think we should add another problem with what we alread have. I am so postive woyane brought this religous issu only to distract us from dealing what he already introduced before. What we need is peace and unity in our country. Not war after war. If you are an orthodox christian you don’t want anyone to distroy what you believe and so do muslim. And the most important part God protects his people. He protected our christainity throughout history. If you belive in God just let God deal with this issu you mantioned.

  13. Elias,

    1) I did not hear the discussion yet, hopefully will do when it is posted @ ER or any other website. However, I have to say you are a courageous man to speak your mind.

    2) Watch comments by Assta B. Gettu who is adamant to break the rule of civility and spew his garbage in areas that is beyond his comprehension. Let alone Islam, the religion of peace & compassion, he is not even equipped of the religion he proclaims that he follow.

    To Assta B. Gettu,
    When people talk with knowledge it makes sense. Watch PeaceTv for few days and reflect to have some understanding before you open your mouth. It is free for all the world to see if you are ready and have courage to listen. Nothing is hidden, the book is available with many other materials for those who want to learn. Don’t be scared.

    Cheers 

  14. Hi Folks,
    Don’t make the debate b/n Elias and Abraha as a big issue. They are just ordinary people.

    The country’s future will never be decided by these people. Simple as that!!!

  15. abc-ሀ ሁ#19,

    I have sincerely told you before not to leave the discussion you have started with me as if you could win without bringing to the readers some convincing facts that one of your ancestors, Muhammad, the Prophet, was not a rapist, a deceiver, a killer, and the father of lies; however, you have failed to support your false prophet because you are still at, as I said before, abc-ሀ ሁ level.

    Knowing your level of ignorance, you stopped confronting me for a long time, and I thought you have gone back to school to improve your writing and your third-grad level of thinking; nevertheless, in your today’s slipshod comment, I found out you have not added one iota of intellect to your feeble brain – all your fears, imaginations, and believes about me are nothing else but conjectural or divinatory.

    You want to defend the message of the devil – Islam – with the little knowledge you may have, and you think those who attack Islam lack civility and an ethical conduct. What about those friends of yours who savagely bombed, wounded, and killed a number of innocent people at Rugby Club and at the Ethiopian Restaurant in Kampala, Uganda, just yesterday, July 12, 2010 while they were watching the final game of the 2010 World Cup?

    Those killers are, without any doubt, Muslims who firmly believe in Quran:9:5; 9:29; 8:39; 9:123; 48:16; 47:4; 2:193; 61:11; 8:5; 4:84. What all these satanic verses say is the same thing: kill, fight, harass, lie in wait, ambush, smite their necks, subdue them, bind them firmly, and incite the believers to fight with you. These are Muhammad’s verses, Muhammad’s weapons, Muhammad’s swords, Muhammad’s modern grenades, bombs, chemical weapons, and Muhammad’s future nuclear arsenals.

    You hypocrite, you advise other people to watch after my comment that warns them to be suspicious about their arch enemies, the Arab Muslims, and at the same time you advocate that Islam is a religion of peace while your likes are wounding, burning, maiming, and killing men and women, children and infants, confiscating Christian properties, and attempting to establish their antiquated Sharia law all over the world.

    We know what your distorted Quran talks about, and we know what your hearsay Hadith says about us the Christians and the Jews, and we don’t want you to tell us what you preach and what your plans are – to subdue the entire world under your control. You have already explained to us what you mean when your likes destroyed over 2000 lives on 9/11and on many other places since then. For us Christians, the lessons you Muslims have given us so far are unforgettable ones, and we will never forget them.

    Hiding your evil intentions, you wrote to deceive my Ethiopian Christians as well as the whole Christian world: “Let alone Islam, the religion of peace & compassion….” Whom are you deceiving when you said Islam is the religion of peace and compassion? Islam is a religion of violence, terror, deception, and corruption. Can you mention one compassionate person in the Arab-Muslim World, a person like Mother Theresa? I can mention to you how many greedy, killers, deceivers, and Jihadists are in the Muslim world, if you want to.

    The good thing is the whole world knows now who you are, and you are not to deceive us any more under your false statement that Islam is a religion of peace instead of telling us that Islam is a religion of war, conflict, submission to Muhammad, submission to Islam, submission to the moon-god, allah, submission to sex, child abuse, and submission to producing millions of Muslim children every month if not every year. We hear you what you say, but we will never do what you want us to do: we will not submit to you; we will not worship your false prophet; we will not bow down to your moon-god allah; and we will never ever stop from exposing you that you are ruthless killers, and we are ready to defend ourselves from your brutality you have inherited from your prophet Muhammad (curse be upon him), a person who started World I when he slaughtered millions of Jews and the people of Mecca. And he is the one who exported his dirty religion, Islam, to my Christian country, Ethiopia, by deceiving the Ethiopian Christian King.

    I hope, one day, the God of Israel who dealt with the Egyptians and finally who allowed the Red Sea to swallow up the Egyptian army, may do to the Ethiopian Arab Muslims who are occupying the Christian land of Ethiopia.

    My friend, Mr. abc–ሀ ሁ, I want you to complete the rest of your life in a pique!

  16. you are right bro,both Elias and Abraha are well known bums.I spared quarters for both of them to give it to the big bums,Issayas and Meles respectively!

  17. Asta Begetu,wedie hamasenit,son of askary-you project a medival world view.You may if you wish ooze your venom on a regular bases,but,please don’t try to hide your identity under the blessed name of Mama Ethiopia.

  18. Hi Elias
    You know I had some problem recently to get in to your web site I don’t know weather it was from my computer or from your web site for that reason I was late to get the information and be there(Qale paltalk room) but I heard the recorded interview and you did very well and as always you are to the point. I don’t understand why abreha, a wel known enemy of Eritrea, why he is wasting his time and sombody elses time by talking irrelevant Eritrea, Ertrea, Issayas Issayas. The issue of Eritrea becomes non of abreha belay’s business 19 years ago he has to focus and talk about existing problem of his own country Ethiopia and the issue of getting an outlet to the sea can be solved after blood sucking enemy woyanne together with seye abreha, gebru asrat and the likes gone.
    Elias
    Now

  19. Continued
    … It is now two years or close your web site elected President Issayas as person of that year and after that you get mixed response from readers of your web site pro and against and even you get on your mail box against it and it was personal insult and threat up until you are going to lose your life. So if you still have the recorded insult message try to compare it with abreha belai’s todays interview very very carefully word by word because the interview was conducted on the phone and you may get some kind of similarity or even a match you don’t need to let us know but to use this opportunity who is your enemy and for future evidence, as to me my mind is telling me it was abreha belai who send that kind of message. Feel free to delete my comment.
