The two regimes would like to continue to engage thier respective captive population on both sides of the border in suspense. It is in both regime's interest to talk about war than peace, democracy, liberty and freedom. If there is peace, both people would start asking for thier rights which both regimes are not ready to do. We as a people should not give any attention to the non-existent war between two undemocratic regimes. We must focus on democracy, freedom and human right. We as a people shouldn't fall on thier relentless propoganda to deflect attention from real issues. Both are liers.

this war is happening in the interest of ato debebe zenawi(meles) just to keep warm his throne, he is a lucky gang to enjoy in pinching both people. gize yesetew kil

"Eritrea's Information Ministry accused Ethiopia of launching a small scale attack"Eritrea

Accusing like that is always Shabia tatic. As we well know when shabia was taking Badme and other localiies, was blaming on Ethiopia actually as if the war been started by Ethiopia.

If the war started which is sounded like, it will be the end of the Eritrean gangs in Asnara. It will be a sucidal attempt for Shabia really.

Long live our national armed forces.Indeed Ethiopia forever. yeha

go and kick this bastard issayas and liberate our brothers in eritrea.glory to ethiopian defense forces

Mr. Bellew, from your pagan name I conclude
that you are one of those Shoa Amhara tribalist. Insulting the great PM doesnt help you at all. As an Oromo and rich bussinessman I expect the PM to protect our property from the likes, like you who lure arround propogating hate and destruction in the name of Ethiopia. Once I made a mistake and was demonstrating with the CUD liers and traitors but now I reliaze where my bread is baked.
Let us say Sayonara, Aufidehzen, Sayonara to the deffunct CUD. I advice them to join their comrade in Zimbuabwe. What Ethiopia needs is peace and stability. PEACE UP!!!!!

Eritrea a poor nation, uses 50 % of its meager GDP to maintain an army disproportionate to any perceived threat. History shows that such a large GDP spending will lead to downfall of governments, as the army by nature ties up able bodied young people occupied in idle activities, with zero contribution to the economy.

The Asmara gang are obviously are not interested about the welfare of Eritreans. They just want to stay in power longer.

Sure way to do this is continue to cry foul about the border issue, so no resolution could be arrived at. Because a border resolution means the army could turn its guns against the gangsters.

This again is nothing more than crying foul, reminding its army not to think about internal issues, but only to concentrate about the perceived threat. As the saying goes people deserve the government they have, and Eritreans certainly desereve the Asmara gang, because that is all they are capable of producing. Didn't they worship Italians for 60 years?

who cares even if they are killing each others.to me they are the same shit and parasite for the generation.
abo kenezih koshashoche Egziez begelagelen.

Let us be patient and celebrate 2008 in peace. I am not aware of this news and I don’t believe it’s true. Eritrea knows will going to war with ET this time will be the end of its military rulings. ET will be patient and hold back from any attack. ET is focused on strengthen its economy and educational system. Although ET will become on the top if the next war breaks up, it will slow down our economy during the war therefore patient is our tool to build our nation.

Time to kick esayass ASS!

it is not problem of both side people.
our children wont economy divlopment not high
teck military or hero of 21century .

FALSE ALARM…..Shabia will never dare to start anything stupid with us again.

Antiwoyane, Debelo lebash lemagn. Who do you think you are insulting people like that.
Coward, if I ask you to fight against them you will be the first one to run arround. But in Fukera you are number one. That is why some of us Oromos preffer them than you jelous people. If it was for you the country would remain poor for ever. I know that in your culture if your neighbour get a loterry you would commit a suicide. So debelo lebash culturally retarded Amhara (SHOA)have a reality check befor you insulting them. The Oromos can also say get out of our land, that is Addis Ababa.

Here we go again...can we just get along? Imagen if eritrea and ethiopia work together how far we could fly...the sky is the limit.

woyane the cancer of the horn should be destroyed by the heros of warsay yikealo.
once woyane is removerd from the minilik palace we will live side by side peacefully.
this time issays afeworki has to order his army to go deep into meles's land and destroy all what woyane has stealed from oromos, eritreans and amharas land.
death to agazi gangs.
happy 2008 to all deki eri.

WOW SHABIA dog is hungry again, plz
Meles give this old dog good leason
one for all. I hate not only party
call Shabia, also people up North-
Korea.

Oh poor Ethiopieans that we be the end of the history of Ethiopiea as a country. If the war breack out each ethynic group (oromo, ogaden, Tigray, ...) will ask for their land.
Amharas can't take a good disition as always and they would be the play ball of Tigray like now.

Well it is obious Weyane is occuping Eritrean territory

Daniel

You are simply mogn and jilajil.
A big, refined mogn.

No ethnic group in Ethiopia will rise against another ethnic.

Asha.

Eritrea shall not fall into Woyanes trap any more. We will let the world clearly know who is after war. The desperate Woyane is playing with fire all around the horn like a crazy dog starts to bark and bite any thing around. Woyane is the mad dog of east Africa. Lies and war is the sole and core value of Woyane TPLF!!

Crazy Militar whay they are die for mr Meles life gangster mr Meles ,semon etc ,,,,,you folish wetader you die meles enjoy etc sorry for that.This war is not Ethiopians war relly.If the y what to die let them die.

I think dear President Isayas ready to kick some Tigrayean asses, I feel sorry for Tigrayean this will be the last time they will around. This fight will be between the well trained Eritreans youngster and Tigrayean beggers.

i would say again and again.i don't care if those parasites kemalam hulu fighting each others. once again to me they are the worst cancers in the whole region. death to woyane and shabia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please do not do again you are brothers, begulbetie tenberkikie be hayalu egiziabiher sem eleminachiwelehu.

It is sad that we have undemocartic governments on both sides of Mereb. It is still worse to read that there are people who are happy to see another war starting. But let us ask one simple question: Who is going to pay for that with his or her dear life and money? The answer is again simple: Ordinary people from both sides of Mereb would pay for this man-made tragedy if a war is going to start. I wonder whether those asking for war ever gone through a war. May be just in cinema.. War is sadness, loss, destruction, bitterness.. And war will never solve a single problem. There are of course wars that cannot be avoided. But a war between Ethiopia and Eritrea is senselss. It can only serve those who want to cling to power. Those soldiers facing each other on that border are not family members of Isayas or Meles. Most of them are probably men and women like any of us trying to earn money in order to feed their family.

After all, the problem in the Horn of Africa are not Ethiopians and Eritreans. We are peace-loving people. We should never forget that our two nations are bound historically and culturally. We cannot simply forget the past and now consider each other arch enemies. Those running these countries may want to destroy each other,they may just want to satisfy their vanity. But not ordinary folks. If we think like those in power, what a legacy are we trying to hand over the next generation? A legacy of hate? If that is so, then we all have lost. Keep in mind old Yugoslavia. I do not mean that that state disentgerated. But what I mean is the human tragedy brought upon the ordinary people by manipulative and hate-preaching politicians. Those who were murdered and tortured to death were ordinary civilians. Let us keep in mind the lesson of history.

This time if war starts again,it will be the downfall of Woyane Tigray.And the people of Tigray will suffer allot.The Woyane Tigray comitted many crimes in the Horn and made the people of Tigray to be hated by the people of Horn of Africa.The winners will be the Eritreans and Ethiopians.Happy New Year for all peace loving people.

that is a good start and we hope we see very soon when the sabia will burn under the heroi tgrian real ethiopians fire and we support at any cost any thing to pm for his action.after the real normal eritrean will remain will live in peace with their brothers and sisters.after that the donkin donuts politiacians will die from stress.

Some times some people they don't know what kind of comment to write. I belive every
body has a wright to give an opinion what ever they believe .But Ethiopia will be
a winner what ever the case may be.
Don't be ignorant and talk about
ethinic . Most we AMHARA people believed
and we will believe TIGREAN are our
brothers .

Ooo GOD!!!what have we done WRONG...!!

Sir what are you waiting for? Please kick this shabia ass once and for all. As your supporter I am really question why you don’t liberate my brothers in Eretria. I am hoping it’s not because he is your relative. Regardless I am your supporter and I hope for the good news for the New Year. Viva Ethiopia

MAY GOD PROTECT US ALL!!!
MAY NO ONE DIE ON THIS DAY!!!

All of you rooting for war from the comfort of your p.c are a bunch of cowards. Go to the front lines with your bravato and see how long you last. War is disatrous for a country. It destroys life and wealth. What a backwards group of losers we must be if there is another war on this issue.

a peaceful co-existence is for the benefit of both nations.

it is unfortunate that we have leaders who think of their country more than what they are, absolutely poor, but still making it clear that unless there is full scale invasion from the 'eritrean's' side, there will not be any war shows the sacrifice made for to be well-off than prided-heroed.

if the 'eritrean's' want to wage a war they can simply say 'let us free Badme'

therefore, the problem is not about lack of reason to wage war.

does Badme matter, yes she does in a symbolic way. but in actuallity it is a barren of land.

while talking about badme, does actual bordering and map bordering differ, who cares?

are the 'eritreans' coming to the table to discuss anything.. no, they are not since they think weyane doesnot deserve such a respect. in other words they have bitten the gallant ethiopian army during mengstu so they donot have respect for ethiopians. they wont sit to the round table not for the sake of their people and not for the sake of ethiopian people.

in ethiopia there is a huge political block in the formation who staunchly oppose any war with any neigbour.

but still the patience of the eritrean's, i suppose, is the sign of the depth of pain they are planning to inflict on fellow Ethiopians.

it is a fact that once a war brock out eventually Ethiopia wins and clears shabia as i said with a huge cost.

the eritrean's do know that and they have not yet figured out a way out of that because if they had, the war would have already been undergone.

so i would like to know, how are ethiopians of all walks of life entertaining the idea of an eritrea looking a hole to kill ethiopia day and night?(almost stopping every other aspect of the governemnts duty)?

The people of Ethiopia and Eritrea would like to live in peace, however the regional bully Issaia Afeworki seems to be creating havoc. This is last time Issaias will have a free ride in the region. Ethiopia may need to punish the bully who is full of himself. If war broke out this time Eritreas Shaebiya regime will be annihilated by gallant Ethiopian troops. Its time for shaebiya to reconsider his policy against Ethiopia. Shaebiya clearly knows its military power cant stand against Ethiopia's defence forces. They have seen it before, they know this war will have no limit, According to our PM no one knows where it will end. regime change might be an option Ethiopia for Ethiopia, getting rid of Isaias and have him replaced with another group. Anyway Isaias knows his limits and may not want to enter into a military confrontation with Ethiopia. He seems to be enjoying his role of being a regional bully. I feel Shaebiya will experience a small and painfull death in the absence of armed confrontation, it would have been better if they got annihilated quickjly by the gallant forces of Ethiopia for their own sake. Ethiopia has been patience to the provocation of Eritrea for a long time, it might be time to respond if they don refrain from their evil deeds.

Will crying help Shabiya? It may be for the Eritrean fools. But the world knows very well who Shabiya is and what it says when it is in trouble. It may be right that Isayas's days are numbered by his own oppressed people.But accusing Ethiopia for attacking its fleeing forces is a joke. The wold body knows Isayas wants no one to monitor the area where the incident had happened. So, how can one believe him that Ethiopia was attacking its forces. He is the shoter and is the witness. If we read its press release, it tries to lie as usual by saying: qoute" Although the TPLF regime had tried to deny or disclaim responsibility for yesterday’s attack -a conduct it is well known for- it was forced to accept accountability for the attack in the final hours upon the tangible evidence acquired by the Eritrea-Ethiopia peacekeeping force after carrying out first hand surveillance in the area, the statement concluded."

Anyone who wants to know the facts can read the UNMEE version of the incident.

Shabiya lies have no limit.

Loser shabiya has been telling the Wrold that Woyane along with the USA will launch invasion of Ertitrea in the first week of November and that was a lie but Shabiya never ashamed of its behavior. It also said at some point a french reporter from Le Monde was the one who reported about this and it was a lie. The guy who works for ICG(Internation crisis group) used its position in the Organisation to disseminate lies and no one takes attention.

Why the hell does Ethiopia invade Eritrea? It is causing mayham in Eritrea by its no war no peace policy and it is causing an agonizing death for Shabiya. It is the best policy to destroy Shabiya without shooting a single shot.So, Shabiya is desperate to make news the same way it has been doing for the last two years to get attention. We all know its territory is under Ethiopia occupation and if it is real for peace he can sit and talk about peace and if not instead of looking for excuses, he must act like a grown up and begin the real fight with our heros. They will teach him his final lessons of the time.

Daniel, before making any comment on this web.you should learn how to spell words correctly. I think you are in first grade. you and your comment stink.

War is tha answer. After war we will have peace. I need this war. I command you meles to kick Iss Ass.
War is good, Yes people will die, but at the end there will be peace and respect. we need this war bad.

Ye-feredebat fiyel ye-neber afencha ta-shetalech alu.
We will see and hear exactly what happened, in the near future. I am pretty sure our brother & sisters at nazret will follow up, with any relevant news concerning this article & matter. And I am sure the US reconnaissance military and NASA satellite will reveal to the UN the responsible party for this acclaimed skirmish and incident.

Berket lie by DEFAULT. Should he always lie for good and for bad this time ? This time around his own minstery of information denied him. Aye Emama Ethiopia...Radio fana, Berket simon, Minstery of inormation, the priminster etc etc....a collection of lier!

Say Effeeeeee!!!!!!!!! so that the fire is out.

Shabia had threaten ethiopia morethan 1000 times in the last seven years.Ethiopia had put it clear the action she would take against shabia if only invaded.Until then all you shabians enjoy the modern day slavery imposed by your master isayass from tigray.For now we ethiopians want NO BADMA NO PEACE NO WAR.

NADIA,,,why dont you close your eyes and pray like your shabian home girls AZEB,SELAM,and NADIAZEK.For the mighty ethiopian army to come and save you ladys from sex slavery.

victory for nobody since we know they are the enemy of Ethiopia.
Death to woyane and shabia

Eritreans,

Meles said we ( Ethiopia )will not start the war unless Eritrea invades Ethiopia in FULL SCALE MANNER.

What happened yesterday was a small gun fight exchange. Esayas will never dare to start a full scal war. He is so selfish and he wanted to stay in power as long as he can. Esayas knows very well that invading Ethiopia in a full scale manner would be the end of his era.

Ethiopia, meanwhile, keep Eritrea in check and watch them starve to death until they rise up against Esayas and getrid of him.

God Bless Ethiopia!

How many of the people who commented on Nazret fought in any war or work in the government. I say “Just shut up!!! The Eth'n gov't has handled Eritrean gov't without shooting a single shot since the last war. Their strategy is working very well in burning Isayass in his hole. Meles is not stupid and he is not going to lift a finger – the no war no peace policy has been very effective. I don't want any war to take place considering the possible causalities of the poor soldiers. However, if we have to fight them - it's going to be on Eritrean soil and they will pay dearly for the mistake…no question. Even Americans didn't know the power of the Ethiopian army until they paralyzed the Islamists in Somalia within days. They advised to guard only Baidoa and not to fight them head on.
Isayass is a mad man and he’s going to mis-step again. Unfortunately, the poor young men will be the one burning. He will run away at the last minute – just like any dictator. Remember! Mengistu Hailemariam’s mefekir “enat ager weynem mot” but he ran away with millions of dollars and 2 of King Haileselassie's Rolls Royce

Once and for all, it is time to shut Esayas. Send him to visit sadam in hellll

I never said the no war no peace policy will never serve as a benefit for Ethiopia,But this hungry Eritreans are about to be finished with out a bullet so our government should stick to the same policy and see more results

Hungry eritreans are going to come and eat some kitffo,while easyass is on the run.

If weyane can not win in Somalia how can
they win in Eritrea come on guys tell the
truth just say no no war

once again Zmicky is denying what the ministry of foregeign affairs is admitting.Look at him

Please look Ethiopian are dain in somalia
everyday cose christmas gift for Bush
& wake up Ethiopian be smart onece in your life & do not ever talk about Eritrea

In the minds of the Eritrean fools, The Somalia Gov't isn't winning against the thugs who are supported by Isayas and his cohorts. What they think about winning is free of any skirmishes. There is no world free of minor skirmishes. What ethiopians think winning a war mean is quashing Isayas's dream of controlling Somalia's affair and disturbing Ethiopia peace by proxy. We are winning one by one and sooner or later, the Somalia gov't will control its nation. The Somali people will breath fresh air, peace and prosperity. As to the people in the north our nation, they chose slavery over liberity, dictatorial regeim over democratic and talk over action. We wish them what they dream and what we ask them is please leave us alone. You say independence and we alloed you to have it and you are becoming a thorn in the horn.

down fall of issayas rejim is nearing ..praise to god..meles will hunt him down ..like ..the americans did to sadam hussen..these time ..he will hide..in afar..ladies shirit or ..will hide ..in the camels ..big behind..kkkk i cant wait ..

Let us all think peace,PEACE IS a POWERFUL WORD.May godless bothside of people who loves peace as one people as one nation.

TIGRI AND ERETRIANS HOPE OR CURSE FOR ETHIOPIA.

In the history of human civilization different tribes and ethnic groups has contributed for advancement of cuture ,science,literature and democracy.

For the last half century what we see regarding our TIGRIAN and ERTERIANs is their destractive war,decite,corruption and mafia culture.

During their struggle as liberation movement they infiltrated other social,student and civil organization to their own advantage through decite ,lie and intimidation.
As a resut no democratic movement can srvive to bring peace stability and democratic governance.

Now for the last 16 yrs they are engage in robbery of national resource ,spreading hate and conflict ,personal corupption ring.

The citizens are subjected to fear,inprionment,detation,disapperance and total human misery.

WHAT DO WE LEARN FROM TIGRIAN AND ERTERIAN IS IT TRUTH OR IS IT A LIE.

Yohanes you never had peace in last 3000
thousand years then what kind peace are you talking clean your house before you clean
some one house

The malnutrished Woyanne beggers living at the border will suffer the most if war breaks out and the midget dictator knows it. The other day there was an article on BBC about the Tigray region and their desperate cry to see the opening of the border between the two countries. source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7148096.stm I quote the BBC, "Woyanne beggers know the streets of Asmara better than that of ADDIS". Woyanne criminals in Addis know a war with Eritrea will wipe up the WOyanne parasites and we will see trouble free HORN.

The usual war rhetoric against Eritrea is the damn strategy of the TPLF regime in order to divert the on going internal crisis in Ethiopia. As the unpopularity of Melees and his TPLF gangs is going from bad to worse, there is no way of attempting to hide from the main issue of real multi party democracy and the truth about of the reign of terror that is being committed by the dictator regime of Melees Who after all grabbed power by the help of the CIA in 1991.
Soldiers in Ethiopia who are non Tigray ethnics should never shade their precious blood for the war of the Woyane’s. Based on their own falls assumption of the integrity of the Ethiopian territory, the worn out theory of war on terror and the self exhaled out dated theory of the Ax mite empire, the Wayans’s let the genuine citizens of Ethiopia perish in vain in order to cling to power at any coast for indefinite.
DEFECT THE ARMY WHEN EVER YOU CAN AND NEVER SUCRIFICE FOR THE WAR OF MELEES AND HIS TPLF GANGS.

ok pple litsne up, the world is not about shaibia and woyane, when was the last time you think you are going to have better country so that you will go home instead of been very ancusios to see who is going to win this senseless war, you have to see byond that,the fact that how many lives are going to cost for both sides if this war broke, come on damis ther is lost of inocent ppl will die becouse of this senseless war, if you don't care about it, may as well shat the hell up, cuz you got nothing to loss anyway,other wise you got to think twice befor you act or you say something stubit, becouse you are interapting for those who want to see no blood spill again.Bottom line is your are not gaining anything from this war but loss whatever you earn.If you have hate or anger that is different story means you should't write anything becouse it is going to be one way of expresing your hateness anyway, so just to advise you for the feture when you write some comment you have to use your commen sense if you have one of course, becouse nobody is interested to wast time to read your bull shite,i guess the bottom line is ones again be open mined don't be coward.

THE END OF SHABIA REGIME IS ON THE WAY MY PEOPLE.Let Meles fix what he messed up in the beginning.He owe us big time.He knowth Shabians very well. I hate war but my beloved country needs to get cured from a cancer society. Sorry

nabiu h

sir you are an idiot and your idiotic claim that eritrea is a viable state is a false call. first learn to read and write the English language properly. second learn to be honest and tell about your welfare state. third unlike any other i really know that the only thing eritreans can do is talk.

we will soon buy you!!!

Nabiu h doesn't deserve my response but there so many brilliant Eritreans who are blinded by the lunatic leader and still believe that Eritrea is better with Isayas than any other . I want them to stop for a while and think twice what Eritrea had gained in the last 16 years. In my opinion, it has gained misery and curse.

It is true that we Ethiopians had poverty, disease an famine like any other nation and never hide our problem like our north neighbour. When they build a bridge from a donation, they tell us they built it without help. When their people get aid, they tell the world that their people abroad donate it. When they are caught red handed cheating the tell us they aren't Eritreans. We are tired and sick of them.

Nabiu h should go first to adult school to learn some basics before he/she participates in this forum. He/she is an abberant. There are so many Eritreans who are articulate and love their nation but most of them are misguided.

My fellow Ethiopians, what Ato Bereket said, regarding this skirmish is probably the truth and the most sensible and factual assessment from the Ethiopian side. Both Ethiopia and Eritrea has a physical reconnaissance team of solders, around the clock given the proximity of the face of line, between the two countries, in their respective borders. Eritrea (Shabia) at this time is extremely nervous of the Ethiopian military might, shabia has no illusion about it, and therefore spokes person Berekt is correct, by saying it probably was an accidental clash or face off by the reconnaissance teams from both sids, for the cause of the skirmish and is being looked at, as well as investigated.. And of course shabia being as nervous as they are & always at the edge, the fat banda, the information minister Ali run with it and released the accidental skirmish to the world press core via fax and internet accessories as well as through out their consulates and embassies mostly to the western European countries, so it could be relayed for the news media outlets, as globally as possible for propaganda and smear campaign against Ethiopia, in hopes of sympathy and a portrayal of victim play for the world to see. Shabya is not interested or in a position, from the military stand point, in provoking and getting Ethiopia agitated while it very well knows the Ethiopian military might is much..much more superior than its owen. Shabia's strategy at this point of time is, circling the wagon and at the same time beating the drum of war though, not to be seen as weak. However, I will not rule out the usual Shabia miss steps, to get it self in trouble, as it is a nervous wreck, over Ethiopias mighty military power, and dominance in the region.

Weyane said 'there was an incident' what incident?

I have agreed with aba nega comment. He is really knows what is going on. Please we should think before taking any thing.

OH! I'm so surprised. Are you kidding me? Of course I'm not surprised. I saw it coming. I smelt it and it burned like acid on skin. It was pretty amusing when I first read it.

ebakachu:
My man I felt what you felt but this is the beginning and it must to happen. Here is the step Now with Eritrea, next with in Ethiopia, and next the bitter clash with neighbors extremists and finally Ethiopia marched against the beloved and chosen people of Jerusalem. Then the game will over!!! I just confused at the beginning how Ethiopia against Jerusalem but the answer is simple we will become minority and extremist by our friend Moslems name they will took the power and once for all Ethiopia will become an Arab country. Daniel and Jeremiah stated perfectly. Holy bible defines the holy bible by itself perfectly. So this is not the problem of Ethiopia or Eritrea but it must happen by the one world leader Legion my friend we do not yet test the bitter and sour drink yet the bottle is still foul may be we smell it. God with you open your heart.

War is not good, but by any means, this bastard Isayas shoul go. If we need peace in East Africa the mafia group in Erirea should be eliminated

Ethiopia will prevail!

ethio yeteneka nwe hulum neger.Adis aydelem. Ethiopia tekdem nefse.

The policy of Containment is working!
The same way it worked on the former Soviet Union. The regime in Asmera is isolated, cornered and can't catch up. All we need now is to be patient and wait.
We can't lose by playing the waiting game while the enmy bleed to a slow death.

Remember our enemy is the regime but not the the peace loving people.

Message to ERI people… ETHIOPIA IS UNITED {FIRMLY}

You are crying about ET not following the rule of law… Do you all recalled when you sign that same piece of paper and said the UN shall be stationed inside ERI and freely travel and monitor the area? Do you recalled the 25k TSZ was agreed to be inside ERI? Now, what’s your master hiding and not allowing the UN to travel around? How can the UN peacekeepers are having hard time working with you? Why are your soldiers entering to TSZ if you real want to make peace? The answer is clear: you are attempting anything to get attention from the world audience in hope somehow ET will be forced for you to have it your way…
The incident is been investigated by the good side {ET} and the result will be obvious… ERI is digging its graves again and ET is watching it closely. These ERI cockroaches are attempting to dig holes along the frontier like the last time where they spent 7 yrs prior to the last war. ERI 7 PLUS yrs of digging bunkers were destroy in 4 days in the last war and this time around it probably will be 7 hrs before they are all wiped out of the TSZ. As some fellow ET said, this next war will be fought in ERI land not in ET land. So, you’re planning to create human disaster in your own state and it will be your own makings. If you go cry to the UN, the UN will ship you back to the ET military to be dealt with. ET is ready for peace deal and it wants directly talk to ERI not through 3rd party. Here is what the UN general said “the situation remained tense, noting that Eritrea has moved in more than 2,500 troops and heavy military equipment into the TSZ, while both countries conducted military exercises along the border. In addition, Eritrean restrictions on UN peacekeepers and helicopter flights continue. He called on Eritrea to withdraw its forces and military equipment from the TSZ and to lift its restrictions on UNMEE”. Now if ERI is refusing to remove its troops from the TSZ… why is begging to start the next war? To us {ET people} it’s has been clear that ERI does not want to live in peace. ET fast growing Economy is concerning ERI’s ability to compete with ET. Therefore, the UN most stand firm against ERI and force Issa-ASS to listen. What is the point of having the UN in the TSZ if they are not allowed to witness what’s happening on the ground? “The UN Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea (UNMEE) reported that its Indian Battalion Post and Military Observer Team Site at Tsorena inside the Temporary Security Zone (TSZ) on the Eritrea side heard firing sounds in the general direction of Gergera, southeast of Tsorena yesterday”. Soon there won’t be any MORE TSORENA for you SHAEBIANS…
Now, the choice is yours. You can set your asses down and deal with your issues directly with ET or you will soon be sorry. We have more to gain by prolonging this dilemma while your population starves to death. We don’t have to waste our bullets on you. While we build our economy, we’re truly killing you slowly and surely. Read what Issa-ASS has said about ET’s effective political isolations from the world. Indeed, it’s because of the good work by ET officials that put your nation in the dark and no friend to help your asses. The only friend you have is the jihadst from Somalia. You will soon learn the lesson since you fail to take good note from the last war. Don’t underestimate our air force ability. Your air port in ASARA will be destroyed in less that a day.

I am out for now!

I think a lot of morons come to nazret.com and put their comment without thinking.Just think a little bit, who would benefit and suffer if war breaks out? Of course, you morons, in so-called Diaspora (Ethiopian and Eriterian) wouldn't even get a scratch in your skin, the same applies to the so-called ellit and fat rich people.The only people who will pay the price is the poor inocent people of the two country as usual.Not only the poor "yagere leje" put his life on the line, but also the economic and social devestation will be huge.
So you morons out there, if anyone is advocating war and willing to put his life on the line for a piece of shit land, be my guest and go to hell.Otherwise, don't put your foolish propaganda and confuse people with old tired rethorics.

This is an official statement from Ethiopian Ministry Of Information.
There aint gona be no war in near future considering Eritreas incompetent status. so theis is just one of those millions of past rumors. we shall keep growin economically.

PS. you Shabia and CUD fellas, The minitery would like to address that EPRDF got no ling with the murder of former PM Bhutto of Pakistan RIP B.

Dear yared,
good comment. Love you!!11

There are idiots like Aba Tigist (a visitor) who entertain the notion that Eritrea should not have the size of army rthat it does because it is disproportionate to its own size. You idiots should realise that you maintain an army and carry weapons etc that will effectively deal with the threat facing you. Get it this common sense logic through your thick heads!

Antowiyane-what a comment man, the 17 year of civil war in ethiopia has showed us who is who in ethiopian politics. The TPLF/EPRDF has proved to be much better equiped and organised than the extremists who were bragging about their might for one century. Time and again the EPRDf has wiped your a**ses. They have managed to cleanse the government from people like you, no wonder why we have a better government now. You have no gut to stand for your rights, you have proven to be good for nothing. the main thing which characterised your era was fukera and shilela. Now ethiopians are forging hands to create a voluntarily united country. The current ethiopia is built in the graveyard of uncles and cousins the Derg. people like you are cowards they have got six pack in their tongues, but no gut, no fighting spirit, you want the oppressed people to fight to sustain feeding your badhabits. Your tongue needs to be circumsised, if you are a man go to the bushes and do ur best, otherweise wear your skirt and stay at home. By the way do you know this, its the EPRDF, a group of young men and women who destroyed your shamed army. Even our sisters fought you, they made you runaway like a mad dog. No wonder why you are behaving like that. wait for the second round ofpunishment brother, last advice, don insult our brothers in the north, east, west, and south of the country. Ethiopia belongs to all of us. You have no right to insult ethnic groups in the country.

Melez,has to organize his house first before he goes to the war against Isaias Afwirk.

He has to start to negotiations with opposition groups such as ONLF,OLF,CUD etc.bring them to the peace table and cut them deal to eliminate any conflicts in ethiopia and to strength the unity of Ethiopia PPL.

For those, who fighting for their self determination's within the Ethiopian constitution system and that wants to obtain their righteous and govern their local territory's he should allow the with out any conditions due to their rights.
Meles,has to do that and be flexible for the sake of our unity and allow, the free elections to all level of governments.Local governments and Federal governments.

Also,he should withdraw the troops from Somalia and only remain at our borders to secure encase of any threat from the border of Somalia or anywhere else.

If Melez,do the above mention,he will the support of the ppl.also,it will bring back the unity of ppl of Ethiopian and that will give boost and enhances the Army's moral and ability to destroy Sha'abia's desperately tired and weak military.

Obviously,Eritrea is very small compare Ethiopia.So, if MP Melez do the math carefully,there is no doubt that the Ethiopia army will win again.No question about that.But,if Melez goes the war recklessly,for sure he will not wining and the will be longer, inventive....

Thus,the future and the stability of the entire region(the horn),will be unpredictable.

Surely,a big question mark.?

Read this comment...


Eritrean politics Meles style,
politics against eritrea as played by prime minister Meles Zenawi:

1. The RASCAL HAMASENITES , since 2000 claim BADEME is in ERITREA. For the past 7 years they threatened to wage war unless Ethiopia accepts the demarcation and guess what.....the border demarcation commission ceased its mandate this past NOVEMBER with out any verdict and NO BULLET WAS FIRED FROM TERATI ERYTHREANS. AMAZINGLY ETHIOPIA IS LEFT HOLDING SO CALLED ERITHREAN TERRITORIES AND THERE IS NOTHING THE RASCAL ISAYAS COULD DO!!!! PLEASE TELL ME WHO HAS THE UPPER HAND???????

2. MELES in principle accepts that Assab is in ERYTHREA....yet, ERYTHREANS through complex system of polatiking by MELES where he has shown no interest in using the port, and other logistical issues are effectively barred from using the port. Today Assab remains litteraly a gost town unfit for Camels let alone for cargos!!!!!! PLEASE TELL ME WHO HAS THE UPPER HAND????????

3. Meles Preaches and spreads the gaspel of peace and Harmoney to all his immediate neighbours, except you guessed it right to the lunatic banda population in ERYTHREA, where he has amassed the most powerfully trained armed forces with the most potent weapons not to far from the Terati Erythrean positions while eliminating erythrean backed islamic jihadist in Somalia. Talk about a seditious game plan!!!!! Should the rascals fire a single bullet, they know they will be wiped out! regrettably they are reduced to shouting on ERI TV........Please tell me who has the upper hand?????????

4. Meles government is active participator of regional Economic cooperation of the horn nations Via IGDAD....regrettably, the HAMASEN dominated erythrean banda population is effectively cut off and locked out from any bilateral trade relations.......particularly, unable to import/export goods to and from its IMPORTANT trade partner mother ETHIOPIA and With access to an estimated 70 million people gone, the banda population is reduced to a slave force of food for work programm. Please tell me who has the upper hand?????????

5. Meles is keenly aware that banda Erythreans are only united through their hate against the much superior, god fearing, proud Ethiopians. they despise their Ethiopianess and Ethiopian history. Meles knows that Erythrea has no bases to qualify and remain as an independent nation......He also knows that banda's have no democratic value entranched in their culture. He has no remorse for selling and handing erythreans to a brutal Isayas to perpetuate the unspeakable imprisionment, tortures, killings, military drafts, and slave labour camps their buy condeming the entire population to a slow death. Meanwhile, despite innitial bumps and some outstanding poletical bickerings, Meles is steering Ethiopia towards an impressive econmic growth. Please tell me who has the upper hand?????????

I found this comment interesting, I got it while searching one of the websites. Is eritrea going to be balkanised by Hamasien extremists headed by Isaias? where is the nation going??

Etiob: your research and findings are more than interesting, it is rather impressive, outstanding and tantalizing.

Etiob! I tell you what, you really had my head swerving & spinning, with questions of realities. It kind of feels, I had those kind of thoughts, analytical questions and answers, I am not sure if it was in my dreams or in real world. I am not procrastinating, I am dead serious. But any way, etiob, I am very grateful to your contribution and research. Take care man! GOD bless you.

The never-quenched turst for destruction, and missery is being heard from bunch of losers is being heard ones again. Could u really be the one to pull the trigger in ur brothers head? Could u scum-bags dare slaughter a brother and see mama cry her eyes out to death? I wish if GOD could tell me what wrong we did to deserve these shamefull deeds living in the 21st century.

When SHABIA fought more than 35 years for independece nobody raise one important question what would be the source of Eritrean economy. That is why 5 million people Eritrean fate fall under Pm Melese Zenawi hand. If he wants, let them live or starve to die.He is the first person came to idea Eritrea cannot live without Ethiopia, what were told before is opposite wrong. All expert or high profile politician gives idea based on their knowledge to solve existing problem like imminent war,proxy war, human crise and so on.But the problem has liad on unsolved pattern like natural phenomena. I think, After Shabia came to power didn't even realize port of Masswa, Assb and the oil refinery was not the only option left for Ethiopia . SHABIA had more than fair trade relation designed to help Eritrean economy till got on their feet, But abused upto became coffee bean exporter without having a single coffee plant. Wrong confidence of power to control over economic activity of Ethiopia like close and open ports, increase tax any time they want. By then Ethiopian people kept complain on WOYANE to stop this unfair trade while PM Meles Zenawi discussed with former ally Pres.Issayas. Then was the time need political and economic analyst suppose to find way out for SHABIA. Economist can help country with limted resource but No economist can Find means of income if thre is completely no resource. politics expert can find advice the best of all but no political scientist can't come up idea that bring other party that don't want involved into unless bring in by force millitarly. That was what had happened, Badem isn't core of the conflict.the core of the conflict is self contradiction what got is not allow them to survive as an sovereign nation means what they produce even work hard on not endowded to meet the basic demand of the people though they want a lot. So now Eritrea is on the rail track Pm Melese Zenawi want them to roll untill what denied reclaim again NO PEACE NO WAR

Ethiopia would have been the best country in Africa with out Eritreans, Amara and Tigray. There has been war going on in North Ethiopia in Tigray and Eritrea land for centuries, because it is punishment from GOD for the worst people like.
Amaras ( proud of nothing for nothing), punished by Hunger in 1975, 1980, and 1985, because of what you did for other brothers. I wish I could live with out Amara, Eritrean and Tigray.

Most of you guys are retarded or you're a little kids. You're all exicted in the chances of war being ignited like its some kind of soccer game. You need to educate yourself about the atrocities of war which directly impely the ordinary people of both countries. Stop wasting our time with you garbage and take your propoganda elsewhere.

I love Tigray,

If you can't live with Amara, Eritrea, and Tigray, how come your name is "I love Tigray" ?

its like 2+2+2 = 17, kikikikikikiki

Probably, another sick, despotic, liar,Adwa/Hamassien ethnic pest, who will soon cease to exist.

Mesfin,
Do u think EPRDF will be upset because u open ur mouth like donky. Waw I give u a good name, ya I think so donkey is better than u because, when Jesus traveling from Jerusalem to Egypt donkey was carrying Jesus cries so how u will be donkey, if I say lion, lion is for Jegna like EPRDF, I think better to say u r KEZNAM because without see EPRDF only by hearing u will die so u r KEZNAM finish!!!!! Does u think MELES give his army for Essays dictator ahhhh that means “AYET MOTWAN SETASHET YEDMET AFENCHA TASHETALCH?” If essays open a fire to Ethiopia, we will finish him then he will be like others we never let him like Dictator Mengstu we will finish him to give our brothers and sister Eritreans peace. Long live for our MP MELES

Borko,
Borko waw its fenny name why u say ur name borko? U r borko? I think ur mind as well, do u think we like Eritrea land, no we don’t want, I would like to ask u something, if ur families living in bademe what do u want to do? U wants to be Ethiopian or Eritrean? So better to ask for bademe people then we will decide but I am 100% sure they will say Ethiopia because Ethiopia is 100 time better than Eritrea.

Nadia
Ahhh which is funny….. Eritrea is one of the worth country in Africa, I think u don’t know what happen to 4,000 Eritreans in Sudan. Let me tell u, two days ago ur dictator Essays kidnapping 4,000 innocent Eritreans from Sudan, which is sad history; they left from Eritrea because of him, now he kidnap them back to feet his army. I feel a shame about u, if u r their now u will be like them. They don’t won’t to him because he is a killer, when they arrived in Eritrea they will die or they will go SAWA so how u compare Ethiopia with Eritrea, the different between them like earth and sky please keep ur crazy essays with his army. Better otherwise Eritrea it will be like Iraq!!!!!!

Death to Weyane [Visitor]
Hhhhhh better to kick ur assess!!!! U know essays scares about Ethiopian that is why he send his general to Europe to beggar the money from Eritreans to feet his stomach and his army and they was said: “ we r scare if we start war to Ethiopia then ethiopia will finish us so please we should be together in one hand like before.” Which is a shame to them and u, essays said: if we left bademe like” TSEHAY GEBACH MALET NEW” which is his and ur FUKERA, KEZENAM essays begging money and kidnapping Eritreans innocent people from Sudan because his scared about EPRDF and Tigriyans

Shewarega: I do no know, you are a proud Ethiopian, but why are you so hateful to such an extent. This will not get the country you love any where and or your self, You are a very deranged and mentally disbursed person. In all seriousness you need some sort of counseling, the words and terms you use and imply has a direct resemblance of Hitler, you make my stomach sick and upside down man!. You almost sound and make your self that,you don't belong in any society. I certainly hope, you do not get close in to a leadership position in any country, any where in the world. My GOD be up on you.

There is a famous saying in Amharic.
Kewedaqu Behuala Meferaget Lemelalat. It is to mean that once you have fallen you should promptly give up or else you will end up suffering more, injuries and agony. This is what is Happening to Isaias's regime. Isaias should just keep quiet and mind his business, any provocation towards Ethiopia will have a catastrophic consequence to Eritrea, which is unfortuunately run by brutal and inhuman man.Shaebiya want to treat us the way they were treated by fascist Italians, Ethiopians have refrained from tit for tat and are just waiting for the right moment to deal with the slowly dieying regime. Once last provocation it will be the end of Issayas. i just hope he will learn lesson from his God father Gadafi, who turned statesman after supporting terrorists for decades. Isaias can have a second chance only if he stops provoking Ethiopia. the saying goes like this mot yenafekat ayet yedimeten afincha tashetalech. a cat which is longing for her death goes and smells the nose of a cat. WediAfom, you better reconsider your policies towards Ethiopia, Ethiopia has proved one thing to you and your supporters, we can live with out you as a nation. meles has already proved it. So stay where you are. Ethiopia's gallant troops are on your doorsteps just 150 kilometerse from your capital. they could give you a surprise visit and hunt you down. We know your generals, wichu or Michu whatever you call them, who lack the experience and gut to fight TPLF and EPRDF forces. Now again Ethiopia will show you that hagerawi mekete wont save you.

we don't need any stupied war in both countires. stop war. people who support war too bad. again and again stop war.

Ghion,

Thank you, Dr Phil, for the correct assesment of my mental status. lol. I have retired long time ago when Haile the shrewd userped my throne. Do not worry about me coming even close to any corridors of power. Because more than anything, I know how it completely blinds your eye from seeing the bad deeds you are doing to others.

Now, back to the main point that provoked you to write what you posted. "Adwa/Hamassien ethnic pests." Dear brother, I am simply just holding a mirror to your face. I have a poster of Malelet from the eighties which has a poor lady from Tigray, a victim of the famine then with one of her breats hanging out from her skirts, with sad tears coming down her noble face, they wrote above it, "This is what the Shewan oligarchy did to her." I have nailed it to my bedroom wall. It is the first thing I see when I rise from my sleep. Who is the Shewan Oligarchy? Mengistu, or Tesfaye Wolde Selassie, or the Tigrayan Fisseha Desta, can you tell me please? Why you spread that kind of hatred among Ethiopians for years, and now if you get dinged you cry foul. Ayeh wodagae, Shewa yenebere gizae ema, malet Bezu aba dikir, Haile Andargatchew, Abebe Aregay, Geresu Dukki, Abdisaa Aga, enkuwan yemender wusha ena Italianem bekumu kezeno new yehedew. The first thing you did, when you came to power you dissolve our identity. Which will be restored in due time.Will you accept if an ethnic militia from Gondar invade Tigray, and cut it into thirty pieces, and tell you no more TIGRAY. Will you accept that for sixteen days let alone sixteen years. Be real, but I have no hatred to the Tigrayan people, most of my ancestors died there, defending it. Any one can come to power from any region. But it has never been done til now when those who ascend to power make sure, all the other regions are wiped of the face of the Earth. It is a completely alien and most criminal thing ever done in Ethiopia. I suggest to you go read soem letters of Atse Yohanes and Ras Alula, and try to understand their way of thinking. How they valued the country more than any region, or mender. In one letter Tsadeku Yohanes wrote to Queen Victoria, he said "ageraen Ethiopian asalefae kemeste, be kumae gudguaad begeba yeshalegnal." Not shilalo, tegulet, dembi dolo, or nefas mewcha. Its Ethiopia Ethiopia and Ethiopia alone. He kept his word. Now, you think that will ever come out the mouth of this ethnic pest from Adiquala who is occupying and torturing us like a maurading Mongol invader? I leave the answer to you.

There is so much dogshit going on through this.

There was a small scale war. Weyane attacked Eritrea. The aim was to make a test how the Eritrean army is ready to fight. Well thre result was far beyond thier expectations. The Eritrean soldiers crushed the Weyane,s attacking forces amounting to two powers around 100 soldiers. The weyanes was preaching to their people and army that shabiya is weak and wont fight, but the Eritrean soldiers as always will fight and cursh any invader no matter what. We may be weak and has poor economy but we will crush any invading army. This was the message Weyanes got from that incident. For you guys who donot believe the story, watch ERI TV, the captived soldeirs was seen and interviews and u can get firsthand information.

Woyane can annihilate Shaebiya, Shaebiya knows that clearly. They just cant stand against ethiopias military might. Woyane/EPRDF leeadership has proved their capability during the last war. They have buried Shaebiya's army in their own trenches. Thats the very reason why eritrea cant attack Ethiopia unless Isias wanted a martyrs death. he may think its worth deying fighting Ethiopia than dieying slow death. Come on Shaebiya, Sjhaebiya has stop bragging about its military might, now they are accusing ethiopia of attempting to Invade Eritrea. ki ki ki, fesam hula, tereteti, Thanks to God if we fight again, its going to be in your land inside ERitrea. You gona try betri weyane again,

Here we go again, the laughable BANDAS, there already got some of our solders from that small incident and showing them on Eri. TV. These BANDAS/SLAVES of fascist Italy are the most odysseys and pathological layers of man kind. Good Lord, how sick is that?.

Shewarega: I was laughing, as I was reading your commentary, apparently a response to my comment. You keep saying "you did this or that" in reference to, I guess the Tigray people, and me, being one of them. Now you exposed your self, on who you might be, so, keep on going with your thoughts and ideas of hate or what ever the case may be, and I say no more.

Take care.

CUD kinijits seem to be disappointed about the election, ki ki ki ki, why don they go and held a vigil in Washington DC, all the morons who know nothing other than standing in their masters doors holding candles.I have seen Ethiopians holding candle vigils in London, and other places, CUD sympathisers who become embarrasments to our people. So CUD Please contact Prof Almariam and hold a vigil supporting Kenyan opposition. You may have a chance to blame the EPRDF for it.ki ki ki, Now we are sending our troops to keep peace in darfur Sudan, this is the militart capability of Ethiopia. Our troops have bravely served in Brundi, Rwanda, and sieraleon. Its contribution to bring peace and stability in Somalia and averting the danger of extremism which Ethiopia faced is amazing aswell.

Shaebiya and cudites
funny adults
bunch of morons
fooled by fake intellectuals

behaving like small kids
unfit for a purpose
need to know their limits.

Destruction is hobby
sucking blood their history
spatting at the minority
Cant lead the majority

democracy is the Topics

Rebels with out causes
power hungered monsters

Hoped winning elections

power rested in the people
While Kinijit hold a vigil

Kinijit the devil horse of Shaebia

wont take us to dergue's era
Emboldened by Eritrea

Ethiopians will remain united
CUD and shaebias conspiracy foiled

peace for peace lovers
Usaul misery to traitors
Until God unlocks their brains

Thanks to the ill organisations like that of the CUD and their God father Shaebiya. The EPRDF has become much more stronger and effective political group in the horn of Africa. Ethiopia under the EPRDF leadership is more than anytime ready to annihilate shaebiya. Look the confidence of our prime Minister while Iss-ass is panicking at home and abroad. Issa-ass is organising his supporters abroad to help him finance his army. Meles stated-If Eritrea wedged a war against Ethiopia it will be suicidal and I have no reason to believe the Eritrean regime is a suicider. this is how meles summarised eritrean position under current situation. More than 100,000 wellorganised troops are in the border with their most lethal and sophisticated weapon systems. Ethiopia has the potential to destroy 95% of Eritrean armored vehicles and airoplanes and tanks from the Air. The military strategy used by the EPRDF against the UIC and Shaebiya(98-00) has proved it, during the war with UIC in SOmalia the Ethiopian Air force has destroyed 70% of the armored vehicles of UIC from the air. They annihilated the dangerous UIC which was emboldened by Eritrea in 10 days time. They chased them from Baideo to Kismayu, their leadership runaway to Kenya and Asmara. same thing will happen to Shaebiya, I bet you, we will see them running away from The border areas of Badime to Sudan and remote Eritrean areas. Ethiopia is more than ready to break the backbone of the spineless and foul mouthed regime in Asmara. people now have started to call EPLF as the tigrigna dergue.We will wait and see where Eritrea's gura will take the regime, Eritreas army has never fought in a foreign land, it lacks experience and the image to wedge sucessfull offensives. IT will be buried inside the TSZ temporary security zone and beyound, in their own trenches which is their usual graveyard. Badime, Bure, zalanbessa, tesenai, Tsorena, and all the areas which were occupied by gallant ethiopian forces are living memories. Shaebiya, retreated from all these key towns and places during the last war(1998-2000), they even fled from barentu which is 70km from the capital Asmara. Young Eritreans have already began to flee their country to Ethiopia and Sudan, the only visible force left here are the vocal cyber wariors, who fled from the compulsary national service programme. They are serving as a mouth peace to the dieying regime, like their minister of Information who was teased as being the spitting image of Sadams Comical Ali.

Eritrea will always teach war loving Ethiopians. It did it to Derge, when ethiopians and all western countries were bragging about Derge's Africa power. He was crushed and not only crushed EPLF made Derge run away from his motherland. But this time Woyanne's can not run anywhere, the will be burn alive.
As Eritrean, I am not worried what fool ehtiopians say. Some Ethiopians have the habit of beating the drum with Everyleader.
Time wll tell.
Long live good relationship between Eritrea and the next New Ethiopian government.
May God protect Eritrea from the evil of Tigray (chameleon).

Please read this interesting article, and you will find out about the regime in Eritrea.
Woldu Mikael
January 1, 2008

The Bush Administration has expressed the need for regime change in Eritrea as part of its global campaign to root out terror.

The plan made public by a senior US diplomat in September coincides with stepped up campaigns by the Eritrean democratic opposition to end internal terror in that troubled African country.

Already, the US foreign policy lexicon describes the Eritrean government as a rogue regime - a designation once reserved for Pol Pot’s Cambodia, the racist outlaws of Apartheid South Africa, and Liberia’s vile Despot Charles Taylor.

In order to curb Asmara’s destabilizing role in the Horn of Africa, including its support for Al-Qaida-linked insurgency elements in Somalia, the US has threatened the Eritrean President for life, Mr. Isayas Aferworki that it may declare his country a “State Sponsor of Terrorism.”

If the Bush Administration sees no hope, as it definitely will not, in Afeworki’s mischievous behavior and decides to blacklist, Eritrea would be the first non-Arab/Black African country to be named a terrorist state.

The measure will be accompanied with debilitating international military and economic sanctions against the regime aimed at creating the condition for a popular uprising or a coup d’etat.

Sanctions alone never bring regime change as in Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe, for example. But, unlike Zimbabwe, Eritrea has too many enemies. President Afework’s violent behavior has antagonized all its neighbors – Yemen, Djibouti, Sudan and Ethiopia – by waging wars against them. The country’s borders with its immediate neighbors remain closed.

Poverty/famine stricken Eritrea - with a population of 4.5-miliion - has the largest army in Africa ahead of South Africa or Nigeria. Neighboring states see Eritrea’s never-ending belligerent posture as a threat to international peace and security.

Eritrea’s neighbors will no doubt be happy to see President Afeworki go. Such attitude is encouraging to the opposition forces that are adamant and eager not only to build peace and stability in the region but also install the values of human rights, rule of law and democracy in the country.

Evidently, the majority of Eritreans support the concept of regime change with the exception of a small but powerful minority that stands to lose economically with the demise of authoritarianism in the country. Eritrean pro-democracy movements have to find ways of dealing with that reality.

The broad-based Eritrean political and civic opposition sees Washington’s actions as an added catalyst to weaken Mr. Afeworki’s iron grip on the enslaved population.

In a recent interview with the leading Eritrean online journal, awate.com, Mr. Mesfin Hagos, former Eritrean Defense Minister and current senior member of the opposition umbrella organization, the Eritrean Democratic Alliance (EDA), said he fully supported US punitive measures against the regime. At the same time, Mr. Mesfin called for caution not to aggravate the already desperate existence of the Eritrean people who are deprived of adequate food or simple freedoms of expression which the civilized world takes for granted.

Mr. Abdella Adem, another senior EDA member and former Eritrean Ambassador to Sudan, gave unconditional support to US plans against the regime. Mr. Adem expressed his frustration with Washington’s disregard for the regime’s most repressive domestic policies which he believed were directly related to Mr. Afeworki’s violent activities beyond his borders.

In a similar vain, Mr. Tewolde Gebreselasse, also senior EDA member, said the regime had for a long time been providing training facilities for various groups that cause terror and chaos in other countries. But, he added the US should also give equal importance to the state sponsored brutalities inside the country.

In an attempt to counter the pro-democracy offensive, the Eritrean government has openly been mobilizing “solidarity” and massive fundraising campaigns under the noses of US, Canadian and European security authorities.

As reported by Eritrean government websites, dehai.org and shabait.com, the regime has ordered a number of anti-democracy diaspora leaders to collect at least $500.00 from each Eritrean national in exchange for favors ranging from simple entry visas to the smallest personal or business transactions in their country of origin.

In a recent civil action, a Canadian court held that such collections and remittances amounted to extortion and were therefore illegal. The judge ruled that the Canadian Eritrean plaintiff be refunded and compensated by the Eritrean government in the amount of $60,000. For many years, the plaintiff had been paying the Eritrean authorities ostensibly for fear that he would be denied some legitimate business benefits or that his family in Eritrea would be victimized.

From the political stand point, the pro-tyranny campaigns allowed in European and American cities in order to bolster the well-being of Africa’s most repressive regime is utterly preposterous. This apparent appeasement encourages President Afeworki not only to become even more aggressive in terrorizing his people but also in exporting terror into neighboring states.

The Asmara government ridicules international human rights pleas and appeals on behalf of thousands of tortured, murdered or disappeared prisoners of conscience. It has also proven to be the fiercest enemy of American and European values and interests.

To be sure, some unsuspecting diaspora Eritreans have been duped into believing that tyranny is needed to preserve national independence and territorial sovereignty. They feel that these hard earned national rights cannot be secured or maintained in an environment where there is respect for human dignity and rule of law within the confines of the Eritrean nation. Nothing could be far from the truth, or course.

Anyone who believes Mr. Afeworki has not been telling the biggest lie ever told by a dictator when sarcastically hammering for 10 years the slogan of “first and foremost ...our national sovereignty,” is simply simple-minded with no notion of how human nature works and especially how tyrants feel, think and behave in order to stay in power.

Dictatorships are by nature dishonest, violent, war mongering, and disaster-prone machines. A country is most likely to be ruined during a dictator’s reign and sometimes the bleeding continues long after the dictatorship is gone.

They often wish to leave behind them devastated, deeply divided, demoralized and unmanageable societies as in the case of Liberia after Samuel Doe, Iraq after Saddam Hussein or Somalia after Siad Barre.

Democratic change will not only benefit the long suffering Eritrean people but will also contribute to stability and prosperity in that sensitive Horn of Africa region. The time for rule of law is now
