    I heard Issaias’ speech for the 27 the year commemoration. Issaias appears in his speech hopeless, never mentioned even once the American CIA or the Woyanes of Ethiopia.
    Issaias and the Hgdefites and other Teref merefs have learned a lesson the hard way that Ethiopia is not going to collapse, nor will the Tigrayans who are in full control of Ethiopia will be eliminated for many years to come.
    But Issaias understood very well that Eritrea is dying slowly and its young and productive generation abandoning it by voting on their foot. Worse, he has seen the Arabs eating each other everywhere, be it in Yemen, Libya, Syria and a young Saudi devouring his own elks. With all these mayhem, he saw his promised Arab petro dollar evaporating and the Arab and Egyptian support drying up.
    He should have known long ago that an Arab comes to your house to belittle your languages, burn your identity, snatch your kidney, enslave your sister and sell you to slavery. Every Arab slave Abeed knows this fact, including Omar al Bashir and the bankrupt self haters and language burners. See them below bark to protect the honour of their masters. such is the fate of slaves who disown themselves.

    Subject: Eritrea National Day – Press Statement by Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State, May 24, 2018

    Is this a left over of last month’s APRIL FOOLS Day Joke? If so, it is a cruel Joke. In any case, here is my humble opinion in line with Democratic Institution for Freedom of Expression. The U.S. Department of State is fully aware of the situation in Eritrea, to its minutest detail. To “wish the people of Eritrea a happy national day” is nothing less than cruel gesture. To lamp the people of Eritrea and the United States of America and declare of “shared values” is simply a cruel comparison and poking the wounds of the Eritrean people even deeper. It is below the dignity of the United States of America — the Beacon Light of Freedom & Liberty — to stoop so low – for political gain in colluding with a Dictator. THE END

      rezen, the line between sanity and insanity has been blurred,the department is throwing it out there because it is a standing protocol for foreign affairs.It is the job of the aids to remind Mr. Secretary to say so,otherwise…….don’t let me say something that will set this website on hgdefite frenzy.

    One thing we should give credit to the (Genius) evil dictator!
    He comes up with new slogan, every year and from what I have heard they are all pending to get patented 🙂
    His achievements for the last 27 years are the fabrication of slogans and great destruction.

    Hgdf members and some opportunist supporters are being hunted down in sudan as we speak now. They will cry for justice in sudan while supporting injustice in eritrea as usual!

    Melles Zenawi crossed the red line when he went to the US universities and Lectured them about the futilities of the US Neo Liberalism and in revenge they poisoned him with pin head size(ክንዲ ጣፍ ትኮን) radioactive polonium along the presidents of Ghana and Tanzania.
    Issayas once claimed that the CIA killed Melles፣ and he perfectly knows what is awaiting him, he is suspicious of a planned foul play behind the good will gesture with regards to the Eritrean independence and he will never ever step his Feet to the USA.

    I am no foreign policy expert, but the US does what benefits it most. Its imperial and capitalistic hegemonic ambitions wouldn’t allow it to go for a people’s plight. Its history has been, if it has to do that Faustian bargain to accomplish what needs to be accomplished to stay the world’s number one power house, it will do what needs to be done without any compunction or moments of hesitation – no morality, no human rights ጂኒ ጃንካ::

    The yearly ዓጀውጀዉ of the imbecile-in-chief at the helm of political power in Eritrea, I cannot bring myself to listen to. It is not that I don’t try; I do, but five minutes later I want to shoot the gadget from which that ዓጀውጀዉ is being emitted from. He ain’t worth my destroying a laptop over. So, I promptly stop and over the years relied on Sal Younis’s analysis of it – That was more than sufficient dose of anger inducing diatribe of the man I could handle.

    So, the US is always open to backdoor diplomatic channels. The now-on-and-now-off attempt at a direct talks is a good example of how the US never hesitates to do that Faustian bargain. Devil or not, it will negotiate toward having dictators dismantle their nuclear arsenals. It did it to Gaddafi, ten years later, the man was dead. Therefore, our man at the helm in Eritrea knows this. He will still throw temper tantrum like a child and the US will either give him a pacifier or will ignore his emotional outburst and that’s that. He knows that the US’s position will never change to a point of disfavoring Ethiopia over Eritrea, especially, with the former now having a very mature, well-polished, politician. Ethiopia will remain an indispensable ally to the West, unless and until this seventy-some-odd-year-old man is removed from power and the younger generation comes along that will be comfortable in accepting Ethiopia as the formidable force in the Horn of Africa. So, the vicious cycle will continue unabated. Eritreans will have to figure out a way of finding a solution to their seemingly and intractable domestically and home-grown tyranny of our own creation. Twenty-seven-years is far too long for such abuse to continue.

    P.S. I’ve been trying to respond to you under the article I penned, but, for some reason it is not making it. If this one makes it, I was thoroughly delighted to hear from you, bro!
