    Here is Eritrea, the shame of Africa, in the news again. This is taking place while the Eritrean fools are dancing in Bologna, Italy.

    Eighty-one more migrants reported dead or missing on sea route to Italy:
    UNHCR

    ROME Wed Jul 2, 2014

    (Reuters) – Migrants arriving on boats in southern Italy say 81 other
    people traveling with them have died or gone missing during their sea
    journeys from north Africa, the UN refugee agency said on Wednesday.

    A group of 27 migrants picked up on Tuesday by Italy’s naval rescue mission
    and brought to the town of Catania said there had been 75 other people on
    their boat, who were feared drowned, the UNHCR said in a statement.

    Other migrants arriving in Sicily’s Porto Empedocle said two of the party
    they traveled with had died and four had disappeared.

    Authorities said the death toll on another packed fishing boat, discovered
    by an Italian rescue mission on Monday, had reached 45. The victims are
    believed to have suffocated.

    All those found dead on Monday by the “Mare Nostrum” or “Our Sea” naval
    operation were men from Subsaharan Africa, the U.N. said.

    The UNHCR says around 500 migrants have died so far this year in the
    Mediterranean. Many were fleeing war in Syria, forced conscription in
    Eritrea, or poverty in other countries in Africa.

    Italy’s navy tweeted that Mare Nostrum had rescued 236 migrants, including
    35 women and 54 minors, on Wednesday.

    Southern Italy has long attracted flows of seaborne migrants, and calm
    weather has contributed to a surge over recent weeks.

    The number reaching Italy this year, many of whom pay a trafficker more
    than $1,000 for the trip, has already matched the annual record of 62,000
    set in 2011 during the Arab Spring uprisings.

    Mare Nostrum costs around 9 million euros ($12.3 million) a month, and
    Italy has called for more help from the European Union. The EU said on
    Monday it was making 4 million euros of emergency funding available to
    Italy.

    The influx of migrants has revived support for Italy’s anti-immigration
    Northern League party, whose leader Matteo Salvini called on Prime Minister
    Matteo Renzi and Interior Minister Angelino Alfano to resign over the issue
    on Wednesday.

    “The jackets of the people in power are covered with more and more blood,
    the cemeteries are filling up, the Italians’ pockets are emptying,” Salvini
    wrote on Facebook.

    Kibur Haw Amanuel Eyasu, your words are words of TRUTH, HUMANITY and JUSTICE. Your poems are gifts from God to us your PEOPLE. you echo our MARTYRS’ promise and the plea of those who died fleeing eseyas’s tyranny and on their way to freedom. The real Eritrean mothers will be proud that you are their son. And the real Eritrean fathers will praise you and they will pray for you along with the mothers. your brothers and sisters will march alongside you on the streets of Bologna on that historic day when justice and truth stand tall to face oppression and deception. as you said in your poem we are all Eritrea and its PEOPLE have. let’s stand tall and make our voices heard. let’s remember we will be speaking for those who are dying in eseyas’s prisons and for our people who is denied the right to speak. We will prevail.

  • Truly Truly i say to you July 4, 2014

    This is the Lord says you, ” I hate your religious festivals; i cannot stand them! When you bring me burnt offerings, i will not accept them the animals you have fattened to bring me as offerings. Stop your noisy songs; I do not want to listen to your harps. Instead, let justice flow like a stream, and righteousness like a river that never goes dry. (Amos 5; 21-24)
    “ንበዓልትኩም ጸላእኩም ነዐቕኩም ንኣኼባ በዓላትኩም ድማ ኣይሽትቶን። 22- መስዋእቲ ምሕራርን መስዋእቲ ብልዕኹምን እንተ ኣቕረብኩምለይ እኳ፡ ኣይክቕበሎን እየ፡ ነቲ ናይ ስቡሕ ከብትኹም መስዋእቲ ምስጋናውን ቁሊሕ ኣይክብሎን እየ። 23- ድሃይ ቅኔታትካ ኻባይ ኣርሕቕ፡ ቃና መሰንቆታትካ ኸአ ኣይሰምዕን እየ። 24- ግናኸ ፍርዲ ኸም ማያት፡ ጽድቂ ድማ ከም ዘይነጽፍ ርባ ይውሐዝ። 25- ኣቱም ቤት እስራኤል (ቤት ኤርትራ) ኣርብዓ፡ ዓመት ኣብ በረኻስ መስዋእቲ ሕሩድን መስዋእቲ ብልዕንዶ ኣቕሪብኩምለይ ኢኹም፡ 26- ነቲ ድንኳን ሞሎኽኩምን ንምስልታት ጣኦታትኩምን ነቲ ንርእስኹም ዝገብርኩምዎ ኮኾብ ኣምላኽኩምን ተሰከምኩም። 27- ስለዚ ንኽንየው ደማስቆ ኸማርኸኩም እየ፡” ይብል እቲ ኣምላኽ ሰራዊት ዝስሙ እግዚኣብሄር። (ትንቢተ ኣሞጽ 5; 21-24)

    pfdj supporters sold their conscience. they are zombies. dancing in Italy where 400 Eritreans who needed to get buried properly are laying around, while our mothers are grieving is totally deplorable. zombies will always be zombies unless they wake up and say no to dictatorship. an amazing piece of poetry, by the way. thank you.
