Eritrea is Ethiopia - Yesterday, Today and Forever.

It must be clear to every Ethiopian in all the other provinces in general, and to Ethiopians in the province of Eritrea in particular, that the question of Demarcation as envisaged by the so-called Hague Court of the so-called Commission of Arbitration created by the so-called of the Algiers Agreement is very irrelevant. It is morally, judically and ethically unacceptable to the people of Ethiopia for the following reasons:

1. It legitimizes colonialism;

2. It divides One People against their will;

3. It is the product of two unscrapulous and opportunistic groups of cripto Marxism-Leninism-Maoist Idealogy, under the guise of Liberation Fronts by the name of EPLF and TPLF, who had undermined the minds and hearts of young students against a prevailing Fascistic Military Dictatorship in Ethiopia during the Seventies and Eighties.

4. It is an easy way out supported by mistake by the governments of the USA and Great Britain in 1991.

5. At the moment, the people of Eritrea are kept virtual hostage to a most heinous and brutal dictator, so they have no liberty to speak their minds except to repeat what the propoganda machinery says; no liberty to walk except to march to whichever director the dDictator wants them to; no liberty to work and live on their own free will except to carry guns and fire to whichever direction the Dictator wants them to shoot. In short: they are living corpses to which the World has forgotten to look at.

6. Finally to legitimize boundaries which was intended by Colonialists about 150 years ago, and which has been rejected and never put in practice and action is by all means unacceptable at this time of civilization.

So, Hijji'wn: Temtuna Ethiopiawiian einna (Look at us! We are Ethiopians!). This is the undefiable voice of the People of Eritrea at this moment of trial.

To prove: Give us Democarcy and Justice. Let the regimes of thugs - the ELPF and the TPLF - be brought under control. Let the UN and the Powers shoulder their responsibility. Thanks, Michael Berhe
