By Elias Kifle
Previously, I have written about an Eritrean “adviser” to Ethiopian opposition groups named Col. Fitsum who has been arbitrarily arresting Ethiopians, blocking reform inside the opposition groups, sabotaging their activities so that they stay weak, turning their members against each other, and robbing funds that are being sent to EPPF from its supporters in the Diaspora. Several Ethiopians, including myself, tried to make the Eritrean government aware of Col. Fitsum’s misconducts, to no avail, leading to politically damaging speculations that he is not acting alone and that he is carrying out a government policy.
Things turned from bad to worse when recently Col. Fitsum arrested a prominent Ethiopian opposition figure, Col. Tadesse Muluneh, a founder and former leader of the Ethiopian People’s Patriotic Front (EPPF). Another prominent member of EPPF, Shambel Zewdu Ayalew, who was forced out of the organization by Col. Fitusm, had disappeared for over two weeks and I learned last Friday that he is back in his residence in Asmara. He now seems to be fine, although shaken up and is unwilling to speak to any one. Despite multiple requests for explanation, the Government of Eritrea (GOE) so far has chosen to remain silent about what happened to Col. Tadesse and other Ethiopians who disappeared.
Those of us who are expressing concern about Col. Tadesse’s arrest are now being targeted by Fitsum for propaganda attack. On Sunday, January 2, one of his prisoners named Mengistu, whom he installed as a spokesperson for EPPF, was interviewed by ECADF paltalk room where he said that those who ask about Col. Tadesse and other Ethiopians who have disappeared are trying to soil EPPF’s name. When pressed for an answer by the moderators and some in the audience, Mengistu, in a shivering voice, said that he and his colleagues are not in a position to get information and that he doesn’t think he should make an effort to find out what happened. Instead, he tried to explain that Col. Tadesse has left EPPF long time ago on his own will, and Shambel Zewdu also left because of health reasons. Mengistu’s answers have offended many in the audience who know about the circumstances under which both individuals left EPPF. They were forced out by Col. Fitsum. In Shambel Zewdu’s case, he had to literally run through the streets of Asmara to General Tekle Manjus’ office to seek protection. One of those who was ordered by Fitsum to arrest Shambel Zewdu was Mengistu himself.
It needs to be mentioned here that Gen. Tekle is a decent and humble person who is well-liked by every Ethiopian I met in Eritrea. It’s because of Eritreans like Gen. Tekle I still hesitate to conclude, despite mounting evidence, that what Col. Fitsum is a doing has not been sanctioned by Eritrean government. Unlike Col. Fitsum, many Eritrean officials such as Gen. Tekle, seem to be corruption-free and live a hermit-like life with little or no personal wealth. They also appear to be sincere in their desire to reach out to Ethiopians.
Cooperation between Ethiopians and Eritreans is a necessity for both people, but obstacles like Col. Fitsum, a corrupt and petty criminal who is knowingly and unknowingly serving Woyanne’s interest, must be removed. It is impossible to work with the Eritrean government in a mutually beneficial way while individuals like Fitsum are allowed to run amok.
Going back to Mengistu’s interview on ECADF, his answers have angered and disturbed many of the over 400 members of the audience. I, however, am not angry at him. I know Mengistu personally. I met him several times in Eritrea during the past two years. He is not a bad person. He is disillusioned by what is being done to EPPF and is desperate for a way out of the mess. I feel sorry for him because he is a prisoner and victim of Col. Fitsum. He was ordered to give an interview to try to misinform Ethiopians in the Diaspora, and discredit individuals who are exposing his crimes against Ethiopian opposition groups and their members. Truth and hard facts cannot explain away by cheap propaganda.
The fact is that EPPF is currently under the complete control of the rogue colonel who is too ignorant to understand that his actions, such as arresting prominent Ethiopian opposition figures, will damage the Ethiopia-Eritrea relation that many, including myself, have worked hard to build. I and many others were willing to tolerate his misconducts until EPPF is reformed and his interference is curtailed, if not completely stopped. When I realized that it was impossible to reform EPPF without a protracted effort that may take several years, I withdrew my support starting last August and took a different route completely separate from EPPF. Many others, including most of the fighters, have left the organization. The once promising EPPF has now dwindled down to less than 70 fighters, many of whom would not return if Fitsum allows them to leave Eritrea. Mengistu and most of the executive committee members would also not return if they leave Eritrea. That is why Col. Fitusm does not allow them to travel any where. Another executive committee member, Nurjeba, was arrested for over a year about 3 years ago for trying to escape to Sudan. As things stand now, EPPF fighters and leaders are Col. Fitsum’s hostages.
It was this kind of mess that we were trying to fix after being given assurances from President Isaias Afwerki that if there is any intervention at all from the Eritrean government it will be by Eritrean advisers who have genuine interest in working with us on the basis of mutual interest. There are indeed several Eritreans inside the government who have such interest.
I’m told by Eritreans that the GOE moves slowly and that the problems will be addressed soon. In the mean time, as I have been advocating cooperation with Eritrea in a very open manner while others sneak around in the dark, I will also point out difficulties we are facing in an open manner, especially when it comes to such a flagrant violation of the trust that we were trying to build between Ethiopians and Eritreans.

Wedim Elias,
Thank you for clarifying your position. You said “When I realized that it was impossible to reform EPPF without a protracted effort that may take several years, I withdrew my support starting last August and took a different route completely separate from EPPF”. You decided to leave the boat very early after you noticed that the struggle to liberate Ethiopia is not a smooth one. Indeed a liberation struggle is not something one can take it lightly. It is a very difficult task to accomplish. After all it requires a huge personal and collective sacrifice, courage and determination. It seems that you lack all these qualities. You lost hope very early. But frankly one has to respect your decision.
While your reasons for leaving the struggle camp being so, why do you then deliberately disseminate false information? Stop writing disinformation, stop defaming our freedom fighters and a Colonel of the host country Eritrea.
In a liberation struggle there is a lot of ups and downs. But I assure you the struggle for liberating our mother land will continue stronger than ever until we achieve our goal, the liberation of our mother land, Ethiopia.
Elias, if you were so “open”, you’d have first put this Mengistu fellow’s interview online and asked us to judge for ourselves. Instead, you keep feeding us your side of the story…
Washing EPPF’s dirty laundry in public has been the least helpful things you have done lately with your “openess”. I’m rather shocked by your audacity to try to replace Col. Fitsum’s role as EPPF’s adviser. Stick to what you do best: exposing Woyane’s crimes, not EPPF’s secrets!
Hello Elias, you have given your admin position for a shabia, and Iam being banned from the forum for telling the truth. please look at my account and unseat such people. They are only there to express their hate and instigate ethnic hate between Ethiopians.
Don’t trust any one just because they write against meles, try to look to their topics and comments. These are not ordinary people but shabia trained parasites and are carrying-out shabias agenda to Ethiopia.
Those of you zealous philanthropists and open handed people eagerly showering advises on Elias for free as to the ways, methods, merits and demerits of the Eritrean governmental civilian and military bureaucracy and its structure as well as administrative functional hierarchy and chain of commands are wasting your times because Elias knows those things more than any one of you guys and gals.
Araat nettib if not ammist nettib.
Elias is talking the way he is talking knowing what he is talking along the way he choose to talk rather than talking the way you would like him talk since he is not you and you are not him. So, why shouldn’t we give him time to be himself and choose his ways and words? :)

The information provided is self-evident. 50,000 TPDM fighter? Is it a conventional army or “Abat Tor”? Come on, to have 70 fighters is more believable than 50,000 fighter claim without an inch of free land. if you are talking about a portion of Shabia army, then I trust you.
Anyway, though, I do not know whom Elias serving, it is a sad news for those who were dreaming the end of state of Woyane !
this is good news Elise you will be free know. And think for your self there is another way to oppose or to support any gov or party so support worded with some reservation so ARE YOU EABEL TO DO THAT. ELias ?
Suture #49,
How much longer do you have to decieve yourself thinking that the evil regime and sadist leader you seem to idolize is better than the weyanes?I am not here to advocate for Weyanes but just telling the naked truth of what is going on in our motherland Eritrea.All hopes and the vision we had to build a democratic and a peaceful nation has been shattered and destroyed by none other than the evil Issaias and company.From intiating unnecessary wars to holding thousands of youth hostage and from massacring innocent people to jailing high profile individuals and journalists and made them disappear in the thin air are all happening in our beloved nation but not in Ethiopia.No matter how hard you try to cover up or overlook the suffering and unthinkable agonies our kind and innocent people are going through is not going to save the evil regime which is on its last breath from dying.REMEMBER,denying the unpredictable atrocities the band of shiftas are commiting and overlooking the suffering of our people will only make on wrong side of history.As we speak,over 40000 Eritreans are suffering in the dungeons,fox holes and metal containers of Issaias,not to mention about the thousands of our brothers and sisters who became the victims of shoot and kill policy.
Death to Issaias and his supporters,
Justice and Democracy will prevail,
Ezi wedhanka,
I am laughing my head off about this whole thing!!! Just wondering, what do u do for a living?
Elias,
Let’s kick the asses of the GOE and take back Eritrea and colonize it again. It was good for them when we Ethiopians colonized them. They were in a better situation as compared to now.
Hopefully u will post it. I really believe that they were better off when they were our colony.
Dear Elias,
From now on it will be huge foolishness to think Shabia will truly support Ethiopian freedom fighters. It is just waste of time and futile excercise.
One rogue Eritrean Colonel alone is not doing all this harm. He must be supported by the President himself. Otherwise why take long to correct the mistake and release EPPF prisoners like Col. Tadesse?
The truth is that there is no difference b/n Woyane and Shabia when it comes to Ethiopia. They are both evils. This has been conclusively proven by the current silence of the Eritrean government. If we have to do anything of value to Ethiopia in our life time, we have to start devising new ways of waging the struggle independent of both monsters. The paltalk discussions should focus on this thread.
Elisa, Thank you for not withholding any information and still digging to get to the bottom of it. I always believe as an Ethiopian noting good will ever come out of Eritrea that will befit Ethiopia. If there is other routs the struggle should do so. No matter what which way you look at it Oppositions fighters are political prisoners of Eritrea. Eritrea, you will never stop weakening Ethiopia and strengthening Weyane. Thank YOU.

One thing I have to say is that I HATE Woyanne more than anything I hate in the world. you claimed that you are an Eritrean: that is fine, since I don’t give or deny once nationality, however, as far as I am concern, anyone who is aligned with woyanne, praises woyanne, kisses woyane’s behind and claim an Eritrean, is still woyanne to me. he/she doesn’t’ have to be woyanne by birth but by choice or… or… so I see them as agents of woyanne who have no genuine Eritrea interest in their heart. Rather than that, there is no need to give you my political stands in regards to the Eritrean internal situation. FYI I am not politician but nationalist.
B.S. Since you claimed you are Eritrean, I would suggest you to let Ethiopians praised woyanne if woyanne deserves a praise for its poor record of human right abuse. If the praising of woyanne comes from an “Eritrean” it will not make it valid and it will look fishy. As in Tigrigna saying goes, (ተሓጎማይ ኮሎስ ተሐዛይ ይጠርጥ) ከይ ኮነካ ንገሩ
Weche gud alech wezero Denkat, betam yedenkal “70 EPPF fighters” All this Fuss is about 70 figthers, the number of people responding to this article is almost equal to the number of the fighters. Obviously though I don’t know the exact cirumstance of what might have transipired to arrest or remove the perivious leader of EPPF, if all they can recurit in 10 years is 70, I honestly don’t belive the people who were in adminsteration deserved to be, leading this group. Just imagin, how could a resistance group for over 10 years have just this number of figthers, something is very wrong here, if I was Issays and I was helping a group like this, I think the statment the GOE ” moves slowely” suits this goveremnt very well, I would have made the proper changes LONG LONG TIME AGO, this means this colenl Fistum what ever his name is, waited 10 years before he realized that this leadership was not up to the job, or lacked the experience needed, to orgnaize and lead this group. One can only hope that , may be now they have made the proper changes, but, if the past is any indcator, we are going to have to wait another 10 years before the next round of changes comes to this group by another coloenl who would be dispoeased with their performance. That is why, it is truly a waste of time to even argue and counter argue over what the Eritrean Governement is doing and about this groups that are working with this governement. We need to talk about how to orgnize a group that is ready to tackel the chalenges that is a head of us, which is the removal of ISSAYS and MELESE from power. We always must see, that both have to go, you can’t unseat one with out unseating the other, This two scum of the earth, must be erradicated for the region to have some peace, this parasites of peace, need our collective, undivded attention and hard work to unseat them from the power they are clinging. it is a high time that Ethiopian,Eritreans alike, form a united front against this two mercenery of evil. That is the only way, we can get rid of our common enemies.
every struggle has hard {Rough} rood ,people why can’t you understand how a struggle for freedom work it’s not going
to happen overnight or going smooth all the way like what
has happened for both shaebia/weyne they both went through
a rough rood ate their brothers/sisters through out a proses
sometimes there will be a struggle for leadership that is a very
common process for every party . I my self never seen any party
who has the same leadership through out the struggle all the
way i know that does not sound right but a process is a process
and there may be more change will come in a coming feature so
you need to expect it that is a reality to fight for a freedom.
Elias, your and EPPF’s struggle is appreciated by those who Support the One Ethiopia movement in General.
The Eritrian experiment has been tried and is more or less a failure. It is not wise to risk any more lives and the moral crush of the EPPF organization just trying to deal with shabia. Its time to restrategize.
Another thought is that Isayas MIGHT not like Weyane and vice versa; and I also doubt that Isayas would like to see a strong Ethiopia and would therefore try to keep organizations like EPPF in check. He just wants you to inflinct small damages in the North of Ethiopia just to remind Meles he can attack and keep him alert. I am sure that Isayas doesn’t want a full scale liberation operation throught Ethiopia.
God Bless
elias, we eritrean & ethiopian have to work together to make horn of africa peaceful place.
long live ethiopian-eritrean cooperation.
we have to get this people, weyane/tplf thugs one-one
Thanks Elias,You came now to mean point and I gald truelly enoughe.Woyane must remove by all means and we are ready to kill to this snake and this is our time.The Tigria people must thimk carefully before it’s to late.now it is not like 90s its 21s.

I think if you want to get rid of the Woyanes, you have to learn that it demands blood, sweat and tears. The talk you have all of you, 70 fighters and some 70 000 analysts in the web, will not make it. If you expect the eritreans or the Tigrayans will do the jobb, they have done already thier home work and that is why you are in this position in the first place. Eating Burger and sipping beer in the metropolitan cities of the west and complaining shaibia did this and woyane id that will not help. Take my finfe cent worth advice. Either walk the the talk od shut up.
There are many WEYANE and SHABIA cadres in this forum. SOME OF THE WEYANE CADRES POSE AS JENUINE ETIOPIANS AND COMMENT IN SUPPORT OF THOSE WHO ARE SUGGESTING TO FORM A NEW EXCLUSIVELY EHIOPIAN RUN INDEPENDET ARMED FORCE BUT ONLY WITH THIS IN MIND.THEY HOPE AND WILL LIKE TO BELIEVE SOME HOW DOWN THE ROAD ONCE AGAIN PEOPLE WILL EMBRACE THEIR INSERT-THE UNITY OF ETHIOPIANS AND ERITRIANS. I am concerned with opinion of those who tenaciously held that Ethiopians and Eritreans together must work to remove both dictators. As noble as this idea might seem it has its own limits and draw backs. I think this is also the new wave of weyane strategy in these forums to get a foot in the door in the name of unity. It is about 18 years ago that Eritrea becomes independent nation, since then the two nations are separate entities. We can not do away with these perimeters and boundaries at this time. The idea of co-operation between Ethiopians and Eritreans for democratic change need not go far than these-share ideas and perhaps participate in a rally for common goal, at least for now. Hopefully, down the road after the people’s government is set up, we may expect more .Having said this, Ethiopians or Eritreans they must device their own solutions to the problem of their country; we need to keep this point in perspective. When Ethiopians agree about the details and the how of to remove weyane through military means, the best means is to completely rely on the will and might of the Ethiopian people. It is important we agree on this point, for all our failures in the past can be traced to the dependant attitude upon others that hey come to entertain. ANY CALL FOR A JOINT ARMED STRUGGLE between ETHIOPIA AND ERTRIA AMOUNTS TO AN OPEN INVITATAION TO both WEYANE AND SHABIA to join the new formed group and there by control its life.Remember, the only most effective strategy consistently consistently played by shabia and weyane is divide and rule.Thy can’t contain the storm of a unified public discontent they must use other means to deal with the problem. To this end thy must by necessity work tirelessly to wear out such enterprise will not come in to play. Beside people who have difficulty of trusting the ability, will and power of Ethiopians are themselves UN prepared to handle any serious mission. It is time that Ethiopians discriminate between the voices of the foes and friends in these sights.
MR.BEKAGN ALEGEZAM SEEMS TO ADVOCAET THE OPINION THAT ETHIOPIA AND ERITRIA TOGEHER NEED TO FORM COMMON DEFECE FORCE. I ADVICE YOU FRIEND IF YOU HAVE THE INTEREST OF EHHIOPIA AT HEART PLEASE DON’T TRY TO TAKE US BACK TO SWIM AGAIN IN THE MUD WATER WE JUST COME OUT. As long as you don’t clinch on this view I don’t have any problem wit you.
Belachew,
Why r u insulting me? I am just expressing my opinion/view. Truly, Eritreans were better off when they were colonized by us, Ethiopians. Their own administrators are brutes. What did u expect form wonbedes, the same shit governs Ethiopia. It is just a matter of time a civilized government will take over and all wonbedes will go back to chaka. The Eritrean ppl wiil enjoy freedom and prosperity under Ethiopian rule, just like it used to be. Belachew, if u do not c it this way, then that is your problem. Perhaps u r one of the wonbedes.

Elias, what do you know what this guys are doing there. Why do come to conclussion very quickly. Why don’t you wait patiently. I am totaly getting comfused by your judgemental instincticts. Take time, clear everything out without being imotional and inform your oudience in due time. You are giving us different information all yhe time.
yes today i read that 12 EPPE fighters were killed by eritrean officials. Now look we are helping hundreds of eritrean refuges to fly to the west by the name of refuge through ethiopia more over EPRDF are accpeting eritrean students to join ethipian higher institutions but at the end of the day they will come back to kill us.
mr.abebe stop acting like eritrean you don’t know any thing about eritrea or eritrean there might be a problem but the real ethiopians are after it but you damy woyane you can witness about your tigray.by the way there is no so called abebe eritrean unless you have some blood of tigray.
Dear suture #62
You seem to be an intellegent person.You know why? Atleast,you didn’t resort to slanders and name callings like the dead Issaias supporters.I understand your frustration and why you hate the Weyanes but weyane is not an Eritrean entity but rather an Ethiopian that we can’t squarely hold responsible for all the troubles our nation is in today when we all know the culprits are right infront of our own eyes.I believe,you have every right to hate the weyanes after what they did to those of us who had some businesses in Ethiopia(I am one of the victims)but that is a different case and it will be dealt accordingly.Weyanes left our motherland after the dictator shamelessly gave up a third of our nation in a humulating defeat in 2000.The atrocities against our people the youth in particular though continued unabated to this date.One of the worst crimes this band of shiftas committed is to hold hundreds of thousands of our youth in fox holes where there is no enemy in sight for over 15 years making them squander their formative years in the name of development.You and I know that they have nothing to show after 15 years except building big mansions for the corrupt and illitrate senior military officers and officials.Now it has been clear more than ever that all the wars the dictator has waged was primerly designed to keep our youth to be kept at bay constantly.The only university that was built by the people that we enjoy cursing them everyday has been closed down for good by our own evil.Natiional service has been set from the outset deliberetly to keep them busy at minimum and to break their spirit at maximum.Is there a worst crime a nation can face more than this?I leave the answer to you.Then why would we keep blaming and pointing our finger at the weyanes for all the woes of our nation when we know they didn’t creat it.Today our nation is sick and about to die and it needs an immediate medical assistance.Its the responsibility of every Eritrean to fight back and rescue our great nation from disaster that hundreds of thousands our gallent fighters perished their precious lives for.
Merry-X-Mas for all of you
I read this article and I thought I too give in my thoughts in the matter. There seem to be a fursteration building up, against the Eritrean Governement, for supposidly making some The Eritrean Government is very matured and one that has a great experenice when it comes to a resistance group forming and gurrella style ware-fare, Now, you guys have no shame, no shame what so ever, to complain, and call names to this great nation of Eritrea who not only has been hosting this group of 70 EPPF figthers but supporting them with logistics that they might need, if after so many years this group is not bringing result that is suppose to have had, you bet the wise governement of Eritrea is going to step in and step it up a bit. You guys talk and crtisise from the comfort of your home, while your brothers back in the mountatains of Eritrean and Ethiopian berhea are ready to give their life, so you can enjoy life. First be greatful that Eritrean governement is helping you, second, We can’t do the fight for you, so you either have to start dishing out some serious money and help the figthers or come down and be willing to sacrifice what ever it takes to get to the promise land. Eritreans fought for 30 years, they didn’t come to forums like this and yap and complain, they helped their brothers, even old woman gave their gold chain for a cause, I belive it was tanzanian vice persident came to visit eritrean freedom figthers in 1980’s and He said, he never saw any group of people that were so committed, to bringing a change like this people that even doctors and other educated people use to go to the war zone and give their time to service. That is how you win my friends, you win through hard work, and here you are, talking crap and have no morals what so ever, want to cretisize the Eritrean Governement for the failuires you have had over 10 years. remeber all this group was able to put togther is no more than 100 people, this is a joke, literally a joke, and instead of Eliase the so called eiditor in cheif, cretisizing this very reason, and asking the adminsteration of EPPF about what has been the propblem, you are accusing the very governement that is trying to restructure you guys so you can reach the promise land. As our great leader President ISSAYS AFEWEREKI has said, the only way forward for Ethiopians to secure a united governement is, their freedom figthers must first unite, and creat one united force. So All of you OLF, ONLF, TDPM, EPPF, EDF, what have you must come under one ummberla say EPDM(Ethiopian PEOPLE DEMOCRATIC MOVEMENT) this is what you need as our president said, and he is trying to unite you all, so you can achive greatness and reach the promise land, you can even do this and you complain and cry about all kind of crap. First unite in the field, then you can worry about the rest, remeber if you unite today and follow what advice the Eritrean Governement is giving you, in no time you can be the leader of your country as a united ethiopian people, and you don’t have to worry about shabia is gona do this that, SHABIA wants the sucess of you people, becuase honestly I am getting tired of you ratting your mouth as if you can do something about it. Wore becha, go fight or shut the hell up guys, it is really tiring to hear you all talk all kind of nonesnse instead of help the cause, so in the end, just be apperciative to the people and Govenment that is helping you to acchive your dream. and for those of you who talk garabage about you can do it on your own with out the help of Eritrea, GOOD LUCK, but please don’t fool your self, you couldn’t even do it with the help you are getting, who are you kidding?? Finally, please be paitent and see what the Eritrean governement is doing, cause we are just trying to help you guys, since you came in to Eritrea asking for help, so all you guys should do is, atleast help them with things they need, give them money or your time, but one thing they don’t need is, your ill advised, unexperienced divisive comments in fourms like this.
Victory to the mass!!!!!!!!!
To: Mused one and the likes
Please dont forget that some of us are writting from Ethiopia & surrounding countries.
In any case life in west is not what is cracked up to be … we’ve seen it all.
Eritrean friend of Eritreans, I like everything you said, but what happened to the Eritrean generals who run during woyanne war?
If they are the once advising EPPF, we can not move an inch except learn how to run. Can you please help us get some generals who are not good runners.
Thank you.
Elias, i put the blame on you for endangering Ethiopians by encouraging them to sleep with the devil. I don’t think you will have my trust anymore. I prefer to stay with ethiomedia for my news on Ethiopia.
You are such a looser.
this respons is to #75 and #77. first, i hope woyane is not stealing from the handout that intended to feed the trash eating hangry which it has been begging from its new sugardadies, just to get back at its x-master, shaebia. otherwise, the former student is just paying back now (by allegedly
helping eritreans), his student loand that was gone deliquency and send to international collection agency for late payment since he gratuated in 1991. lets hope it pays in full plus interst, though it’s unfair to raise high expectation from street hastler beggard. unfortunately, most of the alleged students and immigrant resetlementst to the west are in fact tgrieans pretending as eritreans. the rest are woyane puppets'(ALMESTI TSAHLI CHFRA MLLT/ woyane’s left over kutfo cleaners!)family members. my message is: STOP WOYANE 4 USING MY BROS & SITAS 4 UR OWN PANHANDLING FROM THE FRENGI! regarding to mr. 77, i can smell that iether you are the devil itself(woyane) or its equally agents/puppets. in that case, as we say it in tgrina “felitu zdekese aitetese’a/it’s useless arguing/walking a person who sleeps intentionally” unity & peace everywhere!

Forget about Eritrea! Focus on your retarded country!
Amara’s are FERI! like you! only raw Meat!
70 EPPF! shame on you! in 10 years!
TPDM or OROMO! will rule Ethiopia soon!
One thing I have learned after reading some of the comments is that, sadly, most people have no clue how Shaebia or for that matter Eritrea works. Aside from the coffee shop/bar politics which most of the comments are based on, people should realize Eritrea’s long term plan is reforming the horn of Africa in general. This has been in the works for the last two decades. People please mature up and be realistic.
This has been a matter that is crystal clear all along. How can anyone with a human mind think that Eritreans will cooperate with Ethiopians that fight for the unity of Ethiopia. Isn’t destroying Ethiopia the fundamental policy of Eritrea’s survival? Anybody thinking that Eritreans will support Ethiopians fighting to free Ethiopia from Woyanne does not have a human mind. Those of us with a human mind know that Eritreans prefer the Woyanne government many hundred times than any other other government in Ethiopia.
Elias, Do you still want to continue with Shabia?
Look Elias, still you are back to zero. Did you want to tell us that Isaias did not now what Butcher Fitsum is working??? Then if so Mengistu H/mariam is not responsible for the the mess done…..Please THINK and WRITE. You are late to turn, but still the solution is to clear your delusion and stop misleading.

Eritria is not capable of reforming anything.
