Thank you for your unconditional support to liberate our people.
Professor I think it would be more productive if you can help the young Eritreans abroad to continue their education as their primary goal. As you know 9 out of 10 boys are fumbling and 9 out of 10 girls are successful. I think you are a good role model for all Eritreans. Your background and your results are an excellent example for all Eritreans. Back home on your third year in the university, you served as a teacher and when you came to America you pursued your education to PhD level,you never interrupted your education and at the same time Eritreans as well as all nationalities. I think it’s time for you to put Eritreans back to school so that they will be productive citizens wherever they are. And I am sure a well educated Eritrean will be a good asset to Eritrea.
As you know there are many Eritreans that are orphans without big brothers or sisters who need guidance to make it in higher education.

Dear Semharr,
Don’t you think our first priority should be to save our country and the thousands of Eritrean youth who are perishing?

Prof. Debessay,
I am learning or reading about the Eritrean Student movement(EFLNA) during its heyday in early 1970s when it was an independent organization which formed spontaneously after massacre of Eritreans by Ethiopian in Keren.
It was an effective independent organization when it maintained its independence from the EPLF/ELF divide whose legacy has haunted our Eritrean community like a vampire.
Growing up in America in diaspora community- I saw first hand how this division caused havoc in terms of community organization, etc..
For the lives of Eritrean and Eritrea, do you think a viable independent organization beyond that ugly divide can be created? Are there any frameworks coming?

Dr. Araya
Lately, we have not heard from “Our Voice”.
Are they still active ?
Do they have their own website ?
Semharr December 2, 2015
Professor,
Our priority should be to save our people by helping them to save their lives and educate them. At the same time we should educate our people to know who is our number one enemy and who’s they’re friends.
You are a good role model,let people follow what you did.
Professor we must learn from our previous mistakes. In the seventies when many Eritreans quit their studies to join the liberation movement you and those educated Eritreans pursued your education to PhD level without interruption.Those who had golden opportunities to pursue their studies quit and joined our struggle for independence they were all killed by the tyrant Isayas.
The only way to our victory is to help our people to better themselves wherever they are and to educate them about our culture, our religion, and good education so that they could make it wherever they are, as for the tyrant dictator, we should target him and finish him soon. We should always say no to anarchy, to dictatorship, we should educate our people that only way to victory is by having a constitution and implementing it we can achieve victory. Long live the Eritrean struggle for liberation!
Semharr December 2, 2015
The only way to victory is to liberate our land inch by inch, village by village from inside Eritrea and to eliminate the dictator and his blind followers with minimal causalities.
we must wave our liberation flag, semayawit banderana at the liberated areas; villages, towns and cities, eventually it will be all over Eritrea.
To give you a good example; the demonstration in New York on the 29th of October, it was only one flag, our liberation flag that united all of our nationalities, religions, people from different provinces and from different countries united under our liberation flag that stands for freedom, equality, liberty and justice.
Let freedom ring all over Eritrea! Our victory is certain!

Are you for real Semharr? I think you’re bizarre or a cynical provocateur.How does one liberate our country inch by inch with minimal casualties? And will you be in the frontline of that campaign? Some sincerity please.
You also seem obsessed with “semayawit banderana.” Forgive me but you seem fake.
For me, every life is precious. There has to be another way of restoring peace and normality in our country.
