Eden,

If I, Awash the humanitarian, don't speak for the Eritrean journalists (and all the prisoners), who will? Zefessamo? Focked_up?
Since the shabo revolutions is here day-in and day-out (24/7) minding his neighbors business, I don't need to be redundant.

eritrea,

let's not simplify things. this is not about awash or revolutions. this is about all of us here who spare one and attack the other ruler for the same issue which is attack on journalists and the people's right for non state controlled media. Look how one hgdef blind follower, who cries about journalists suffering under Meles, is practically encouraging Isayas's attack on journalists and people's right to read non state controlled newspapers. this is big issue all of us need to look into ourselves and change.

I was so horrified to read zmeselo's post below because he is directly sending the message to Isayas that it's ok to attack journalists. Had zmeselo been speaking up for the journalists, Isayas would have to change. zmeselo and his likes are enabling Isayas to continue on his path because he get the messege that it's ok from ordinary folks like us. Mind you, zmeselo has zero evidence to say what he is saying. He just trusts Isayas.

our country be sold by some ignorant, sell-outs clothed as journalists. People know the truth, even though the state TV or newspaper hasn´t talked about an issue. People in Eritrea know, that this people are arrested because of treachery.

[quote="Bwendimu"]In Ethiopia Journalists can write freely.


Is it why they are all in prison ? they write freely, i guess you are really a joke and as you know there are currently most free press journalist are in prison just because they write what they see or here , I am surprised on you to say Eskider nega is a racist wow don't you have shame isn't weyane started all this racial game and gave Tigray people upper hand ? what are you ? please stay out of the closest declare you are a real @game and take one way road and currently there are no more free press in Ethiopia.

Eden the difference is, the two people you mentioned who are advocating for the journalists release or wellbeing are both ethiopians. And for starters it is none of their business to be advocate of any thing Eritrean let alone our journalists or our people. And hence, I say Revolution as an ethiopian has the right to speak up for his own people and that scum bag awushaw is not Eritrean and thus need to shut his pie hole instead of worrying with matters which does not concern him. Instead as an ethiopian, he should join his brother Revolution worrying about his country and his prisoners.
You do not see any Eritrean crying over the Eritrean journalists who are in jail, just like you do not see us feeling sorry for any sell out be it a teacher, a driver, a police officer, a student or even a former tegadlay etc who happens to be in the Eritrean jails and certainly we do not need a low life citizen of another nation like awushaw to be a spoken person of what is not his. And that is not because we are not humans. But it is because we believe the interest and the security and the safeguarding of our nations comes before any Eritrean individual's interests.
Eritrea just like the rest of the African nations is not yet equipped with a flawdless working judicial system as we know it in the west. All the stuff which goes with it... infrastructure, prisoners transportation, numerous judges, lots of lawyers, defenders and prosecuters, educated jurors, money and above all time to waste, when we have a bigger fish to fry. Besides in Eritrea we almost know each other and we know who is who and what is who doing to hurm our nation and that is enough eye or ear witness we need to not only put our internal sell out journalists or any Erirean for that matter in jail, but even hang them in public.
So, I say to you, quit comparing apples with oranges.
If I am correct, you are ethiopian. And if you are, you too need to put a cork in your azz hole and discuss your country's miseries and problems with them two brothers of yours and leave Eritrea for us the Eritreans, because not a single Eritrean is screaming his/her lungs out for the realease of your prisoners. They are yours and do what ever you wish to do with them and let us be.
And what do you mean that awash is anti Isayas and Revolution is anti meles? Why are you trying to validate your stupid thread by giving credit to a none Eritrean as being anti Isayas? Who gives a sh***t on not only what awaushaw thinks but who give a hoot on who you or the president of the USA thinks about our leaders?
Man, you people never cease to amaze me. Why can't you see Eritrea just like you see Kenya, the Sudan and the rest of them? When are you going to cut the left over cord we cut and left at the border? By now we really thought you did burry it, just like we did 21 years ago. You still are hunging to the "Kwanta" Beef jerky?
PS:
As you said if you are a concerned citizen of the world and you want to help the realease of prisoners, then goddent go the Cuban, Russian, Nigeria, Colombia, North Korean, Chile, Argentina, Chinese etc forums and fight for their journalists freedom too. Because them prisoners of those nations are as foreign nationals as the Eritrean prisoners when seen by ethiopians. Why do you love us or care about us more than the rest of the world? So, Eden, I say no thanks, we are not going to join you on your cause for the release of your journalists and I command you not to worry about ours.

Awash,

you have to face your weakness. don't say revolution is speaking up for ethiopian journalists and it would be redundant for you to do the same. revolutions may say it would be redundant for him too because you are always on Isayas's case. You both should understand speaking up regardless of others speaking up is important. It will change the image I have of you if you speak up for Ethiopian journalists and it does the same for revolutions if he speaks up for eritrean journalists.

Listen, I have my calling. My calling from above is to fight for the emancipation of the down-trodden people of the Horn: the Eritrean people. The Ethiopian people, however abused and exploited by tyrants for over a century, have a lot more going for them than the miskin people of Eritrea who are under the worst regime since the Ottoman Turks. Therefore, don't ask me to waffle on my calling from the Almighty. I will not disobey His commandment even if hell freezes over.

way zandro ,even eden has changed.

we all have to evolve. otherwise, there is no point in being here. i have changed in the sense that i no longer assume people already know my positions without me stating them. For example, I used to assume you guys already know my stand for journalists in Ethiopia and against the government. Now I understood I have to state it. Hopefully, others like Awash and the hgdef mendef can learn from me. when one is quite on issues, people assume he/ she does not care. Let's give all time to evolve.

Edu ..minaw bedehina bichashin taweryaleshi?

Minelik,

I now realize it's wrong for ethiopians to work with hgdef and for eritreans to work with weyane. it's not only immoral but politically not smart. ethiopians and eritreans should focus on fighting their respective rulers and morally support eachother's struggle.
