Cotter, a 37-year-old musician, is almost done making a documentary – Refugee: The Eritrean Exodus – to share people’s stories and raise awareness about human rights abuses in Eritrea, a country slightly larger than Pennsylvania on the Horn of Africa.
He learned about the regime from a friend’s father. A refugee group had contacted the man and he knew Cotter wanted to work on a humanitarian project abroad.

Eritrea produces nothing significant to this planet but it produces the largest fearless refugees, per capita, knocking at every door on planet earth.
We can not hide our lies and shame anymore by blaming emperor Haileselassie, as many shameless hypocrites did and still do to create and boost their own false narrative concocted in Cairo.
Did the so called “Sewra” or Ghedli create all this mess? I cannot believe that we have fallen this low and humiliated this much to be ashamed of the name Eritrea.
Mind you, the documentary does not include the number of prisons and dungeons built in Eritrea, the number of factories closed, the amount of electric power produced (the least [per capita in Africa), the number of slaves created (Warsay), the number of Kidneys stolen, the number of women and girls raped, the home grown starvation, add your own to the list…
Eritrea and its Ghedli will be remembered for the number of refugees Ghedli created and the number of prisoners and the number of people, Eritrea/its Sewra/ chewed them off.
Eritrea and its Ghedli have become synonymous with misery.
Last but not least, starving Eritrea will be known for depositing the largest amount money in a single Swiss account by few people, mind you, not by the people of Eritrea.

FYI ERITREA PRODUCES GOLD, POTASH MOST OF ALL IT OUT SOURCED MANY INTELLECTUALS AND NOW HER FUTURE GENERATION. THE HARD WORKING ERITREAN YOUTH DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE HIS COUNTRY HE WAS FORCED TO DO SO. you don’t have to attack the people and country, the enemy is the few ruling party HGDF.

Dear Jura
Now Eritreans in Sudan ,let alone to make a Sewra against pfdj they do not even know when they are going to be kidnapped sold by rashaidas to bedouins to be spare part kidney suppliers, be sex toys of Sinai bedouins. If one goes to djibouti the Djiboutian govt. will imprison him/her indefinetely.The only option is Ethiopia .but Ethiopia instead of forcing Eritreans to fight against pfdj is lettiong them work and study in Ethiopia upto university.And to those that preffer to migrate abroad letting them travel. that is sabotaging our gedli against pfdj.there is no Eritrean left willing to fight ,just survive ,and in case of the inevitable disintegration of Eritrea demhit /tpdm’s about 50.000 tegadelti ,welñl fed and armed ready to convert hizbe tigrinya to be tigrawot ,like Raisi Alula & Zerai Deres did, what is the option for Eritrea ,The only solution is to force 7 yearold manjuses to fight for their land to evacuate Isaias & Weyane.I see no other solution.It has been done in Gedli ,including the disabled no leg ,with only one hand heros..ayhadmu ayhajmu..if not we need to shut up and see Eritrea becoming a failed state, and that would be sad.
