መግለጺ ስምረት ኤርትራውያን መንእሰያት ንለውጢ ሰሜን ኣሜሪካ ብዛዕባ ርክብ ቦለኛ
Posted on August 2, 2013 by assenna
ስምረት ኤርትራውያን መንእሰያት ንለውጢ ሰሜን ኣሜሪካ፡ ኣብቲ“”ምትእኽኻብ ተሓለቕቲ ዲሞክራሲ ኤርትራውያን” “ብዝብልስም፡ ኣብ ቦለኛ ጣልያን ተመዲቡ ዘሎ ርክብ፡ ኢድ ከምዘይብሉ፡ ንህዝቢ ኤርትራ፡ ብፋላይ ከኣ ንመንእሰያት የፍልጥ።
Questions:
1) Why are you telling us this? Should any group that meets another group ask your permission to do so?
2) Is your involvement mandatory for any meeting between the so called democratic groups to be justified?
3) If you are for the unity of the youth, why do you negatively polarize the Bolegna event for “democracy”?
4) Do you rationally think the Eritrean people will take your appeal seriously when they can no longer sustain your monotonous division and that of the opposition forces’? If you consider me one, I humbly can tell you that what you did is against the Eritrean resistance for peace and democracy.
5) What do you want? You call yourselves ስምረት ኤርትራውያን መንእሰያት ንለውጢ ሰሜን ኣሜሪካ:
ስምረት for what kind of change?
6) Your moto says ENOUGH: Enough of what? Dictatorship? And what is the solution? Division?
All the readers of the post were disappointed: if this does not wake all youth organizations up to how destructive they have been to the Eritrean society, nothing will. Please see the following comments
Petros Haile “Whoever you are, If you are willing to work with other political groups and civic organizations [you said it in the post] why not at least extend a solidarity message or wish them success, instead of posting a press release on how different you are from them … I wish all daily declaredgroups hold some kind of forum and let us know who you are and what you stand for? We don’t know who is who anymore !!!”
Almaz Gual Asmera: “It must be a curse to see the young, supposed to be bright, open minded, ready to be changed and make change,…are following the foot print of the traditional opposition. I think the people of Eritrea needs to make a U turn to GOD/Allah (which ever applies to anyone).”
Solomon seyoum: “I heard about the disarray within bayto three or four days ago… Now I am reading this message of disagreement within youth oppositions..These disarrays are clear signals of immature oppositions….. it is just unbelievable or awful. “
Hzbi: “EYSC, sitting in America and you are fighting for justice, pity, what have you done except calling people on the phone ?
just call a phone sitting in there and trying to make people die, then you will come Eritrea as a fighter. how shame you are !! get loss from the face of the people of Eritrea and don’t mention Eritrea either. you don’t represent Eritrean, you are prats, no one know you, you are missions of the brutal regime and you are become a barrier to the unite.”

Comment: This was an intense emotional discharge caused by frustration on the situation of the struggle for freedom and democracy in Eritrea: it signals a strong message to the youth leaders on how they are navigating the resistance.
Maluque: “what is the reason behind not participating in the meeting of Bologna? and why do they care about the name more than the objective of Bologna meeting? we just need peace and reconciliation in our country. it should be the sole national objective. what is behind giving different names and slogans to the movements for change. get united for the common objective first then you strive on becoming a focal point for the different political views. Join everybody whom you think , will have a contribution in realizing the dreams. it is not a matter of competition. it is of being pragmatic, nationalist, tolerant, forgiving, optimism and the like. try to win hearts and minds….what u have posted is really childish…”
Comment: Thanks Moluque for your very descriptive expression. It is about relating not competing. None of you has a better democracy than the other and neither of you has the mandate to represent the Eritrean people. You are equally important to us and you need to check out your ego and hallucination and get back to reality and sit down with your brothers and sisters to construct the national priority, UNITY, if you really respect your people. There is one concept of democracy and true believers of democracy apply it in action not in words.
Further:
Ghenet: “We all need to come out of our selfish shells and open up our minds and hearts to the demands and trust of the Eritrean people. If we cannot take off our pride-hats and bow to our people’s needs, we have to keep our mouth shut and not become spoilers. If we are not up to the task that demands commitment and magnanimity to work together by accepting our differences and focusing on our common points and goals, there we are done as a society and as a nation.
Here is another case in point of terrorism against the resistance:

Comment: I seriously do not know what is going on because of lack of effective communication between the Baito and the people. As you know, articles or radio broadcasts are hardly available from our forces and let alone foreigners we Eritreans in the resistance cannot understand what is going on in this situation. What is sad is that the youth is faltering within itself and the Baito scuffling it out behind the screen for things beyond our reach (only if the news is correct) at the wrong time, folks when a national conference is underway soon to take place in Addis.
And then another very sloppy goodie to the surprise of any sensible person closely monitoring the Eritrean melancholic drama:
August 04, 2013:Toronto Demonstration at Sheraton Hotel; Down Town : JOIN US!
“WHAT: Demonstration outside the Sheraton Hotel Down Town in solidarity with the Eritrean Sinai Victims and other refugees detained in Libya, Egypt, Yemen and the Sudan. We will speak on behalf of the Eritreans who came under barbaric, unprovoked attack by the Authorities of the Government of Eritrea and Human traffickers the Bedouins and Rashaidas. The protest will include photo exhibits of those who lost their lives due to the organ harvesting scheme and torture at Sinai. Informational flyers will be handed out to the attendants and the public.”
Comment: It is not clicking Folks as we witness history today where the Eritrean opposition forces are in complete disarray because of their obstinate and rigid mode of existence acquired probably from their experience, greed, stupidity or from their culture. You cannot emotionally dwell on the Eritrean issue without getting sick, thank God I have decided to resist without deeply personalizing the show as if it was a movie.
What happened in Canada according to the information was exclusive concentration of the participants on the effect without simultaneously giving attention to the root cause of the problem (division). Thank you for the great contribution from humanistic point of view but sorry for the worthlessness of your effort from practical solution point of view. I predict that you went home after the demonstration with no follow up assignment and congratulations for your consistency with the visionless Eritrean style of doing political business.
What do you lose including the burning question of UNITY of the forces and youth organizations in the activity? In what way would doing this contradict your mission of helping the Eritrean victims in Sinai? Don’t you think it would help you get better attention and stronger internal unity to swiftly get rid of the problem once and for all? Is not the Eritrean government the cause of all these problems? Is not UNITY the only way to change the situation in Eritrea and that of the victims’ you protested for? If this is the case, are not our divided forces and youth organizations the root causes of the problem because of their refusal to unite? Should not your responsibility be pressing all opposition forces to unite?
WAKE UP CALL: Are not you tired of psychologically and emotionally dying again and again by the leaders of the youth in the opposition camp? Dear Eritreans, it is time to think about this situation and find a solution immediately to get out of this cyclic failure.
I SUSSPECT A FOUL PLAY
Do the youth leaders read us in the websites by the way? Why are all demonstrations refusing to includethe question of unity alongside their issues in street demonstrations? Tens of demonstrations everywhere could not have missed shouting for UNITY with their grievances by accident! Folks, all the demonstrations that have been conducted did well tirelessly exposing the governments and the tragic situation of the people on timely basis but none of them so far did anything about pressurizing the forces and youth organizations to unite in public. The only issue that has been denied attention in our all inclusive demonstration is the priority of our people; UNITY.
I am sorry but I think we are all being taken for a ride by the youth leaders!!!Please do not make the government responsible here because it will do anything to keep on dividing us: I am questioning about the integrity of the Diaspora youth organizations and keen Eritreans should seek explanation to this mysterious negligence.
Do not expect anything more than this from me: I have been openly crying for unity in my capacity as an ordinary Eritrean and here I am doing it again. But, you have a serious challenge in front of your faces that you can no longer ignore. However way you may tackle the challenge is your business but something is wrong from within the leaderships of the youth organizations in the Diaspora that has stood in the way of the Eritrean zeal for freedom and democracy. The concept of UNITY has been intentionally arrested by the youth leaders in the Diaspora.

I sorry for the Eritrean people. As the gentleman in the camp said it correctly, the PFDJ brainwashed and manipulated brain cannot bring about any change in Eritrea. May God cure the sick mentality of the so called leaders in the opposition camps! Power politics in a vaccum.

What kind of change ; are you fighting for democracy; do you really ; really know what a democracy means ? some one like you I don’t think should speak about change BCZ u don’t even believe freedom of speech ; u don’t believe freedom of expression of thoughts ; u don’ t believe freedom of religion.
Based in your previous comment you told an ethnic Eritrea who lived for the period of 1400 years to go back to Tigray ; just bcz of we demand our right; I think either u r not aware y’r history or u r suffering luck of knowledge bcz if that is the case u w’ll be going to Tigray first and then I w’ll be following you next. So ; I am just wondering where is y’r open mind as you claim to be u r? Any individual or a group of Eritrean have a right to demand any thing ; plus u under mine tigray been a tigray isn’t a crime and they are better than as go and find out how they are building their country unlike u who is trying to manipulate & disrespect your citizen
Over all ; you are not in a position or authority to make any kind of decision to any ertitrean ethnic groups because u are a small portion of Eritrea who contribute for independent Eritrea like any other eritrean ethnic . So; let us live it to Eritrea people.

what would be the practical implication of Jeberti being recognized as an Ethnic group? Would you support PFDJ, if there was change of policy on the Jeberti-question?

Raul( zaul ) Our demand isn’t only one Ethnic condition ; and we have a repeatation and stand i;e freedom and democracy for the nation of all entire peolpe of Eritea regardless of their Ethnic; their belief,reliogen and regin.
One thing you have to remember if our house is burn today; your house will burn tomorow too. So; to avoid vilotion of rights of any Eritrea we have to stand all of us together for the same purpose to our common interst; there isn’t such thing call half and half democracy.
Zaul August 5, 2013
Abidu,
Raul here, I will keep my reply short (don’t want to anger Said). I honestly do not understand, what difference it makes if you get recognition or not.
You are a citizen already! the only difference Biher makes is language of instruction and cultural festivals/shows.
abdu August 5, 2013
Raul(Rat) u just explain exactly who u are (Abbidka)
Okay; Let me tell you some thing Ubudd; My Eritreanizem didn’t come as agift; my Eritreanizem didn’t come as a hand out and My Eritreanizem didn’t come through Raul sympthy rother feel and see it through empathy.
And i don’t understand what if Arabic is the second language use ; i don’t it hurts rother than advantage . i wish i could speak all langauges of the world so that i can be able to commencate with the whole world.

Hugus-Abid,
If we have a two language system, we’ll create a segragated country. Tigrinya for christians and Arabic for muslims. On top of that we’ll kill all the minority languages, plus Tigre and Tigrinya already have lots of Arabic loanwords – they won’t be able to survive the dominance of Arabic culture and language unless we protect them by law. The next generation will not forgive us, if we do not pass at least our languages to them. I don’t want Tigrinya-domination, I want all our cultures to survive and prosper. I would love to know fluent Arabic, Tigre, Amharic and many other languages, but first I must know my language.
Hzbi August 5, 2013
Ftsum Thanks for your great consolation and contribution. I understand how painful it can be specially people like you who know more and care more !!
Anyway, the problems in the opposition leaders are, the cause of greediness.
The solution for this kind is that, they can only understand force for the individual who deliberately become a barrier to the United. Or it is better to demonstrate against them to signal to their funders that they are become the cause of Eritrea people. Thus their funding could stop and they can become united in one. These governments who are giving them fund are the main problems.

maluque August 5, 2013
lets not post some thing that draws us back. as to me assenna stands for the change that we are waiting it to be realized in our country. it is and was a tool for change, fueling the gear of progress and hope for the oppressed. how ever, why posting articles with contents intended to stagnate the wave for change? i am not recommending Censorship, but assenna has to converse with those who send articles like what we have read. you have the responsibilty to dig out and know the message b/n lines. unless you are going to dilute the fierce fighting that you have done and doing in the media front. you have to have an agenda. erect your agendas and die for them. agendas for change. unless if you chhose to post what so ever article u get, it will hammer nothing and it will result nothing. identify your approach of strugle and hammer it. do not disarray what you have done so far.
hammer on national unity—common understanding on the problem that we have and searching the solution…
waiting response from the organization and from assenna
abdu August 5, 2013
I think we all should forget about all those arguments behind for now ; and let’s focus on the main issue to the eloquent article by Mr. Fitsum by the title “unity”
