Should we therefore ignore the fact that Ethiopia is refusing us our land? Does this mean our opposition should rely on Ethiopia as a friend to free us from dictatorship? There are always two sides of a coin. In my view the government and the opposition do both the same mistake- they just see one side of the coin. I think we know that our government is non-democratic.

This shouldn't come as a suprise as the UN has had several black spots on its history for injustice. However this shouldn't be an excuse for a petty dictator to wreck and cause havoc in the region by arming, training and supporting rebel groups from all over the region including across the sea.There should be a sober way of making your case to be heard so that wars can be avoided. But the dictator is doing this simply to keep the country in permanent war footage so that to justify his barbarian and iron fist rule.Look what has been happening at home. Thousands have been jailed incommunicado for more than a decade and many others were killed in mysterious way for simply expressing thier views and what is worse, many were disappeared without trace. Today Eritrea is the only country on earth with no constitution, functional parliament and free press. Justice,democracy and elections that we paid a heavy price for being out of question,our leaders offers nothing but a bankrupt vision of misery and horror. In conclusion,the border demarcation should not be a justification for all the injustices that are taking place in the country that we all love.
