Liars Require Good Memory

 

Text Box: Abeba Isahac Reuters’ Tsegaye Tadesse quotes his woyane prime minister as having said: “"The only forces we are pursuing are Eritreans who are hiding behind the skirts of Somali women, and terrorist mujahideen," which by all practical interpretations implies cowardice, which is laughable, because, if indeed there were Eritreans in Somalia, the woyane soldiers would not have gone as far as they have. And if he truly believed the western allegation of the presence of Eritrean soldiers in Somalia, he would never have attacked Somalia in the first place, since he knows what the Eritrean fighters are capable of achieving without hurting civilians. He knows that, because Eritreans were his first teachers on how to fight, and without whom he would never have arrived to where he is today, a fact which the whole world can testify to, but which he seems to prefer to forget. What could be more cowardly than fighting an unarmed population by long range missiles and air bombardment, which has become the style of fighting used by those who think only of winning, regardless the law and rules of wars? Real soldiers fight other soldiers and not civilians made up of women, elderly people, and children. With all the paraphernalia of weapons of mass destruction that exists today, anyone can kill and win a war. So the woyane leader, before he starts puffing up and beating his little chest, should be careful about who he calls a coward with all his American made remote control destructive gadgets, which any child can do at the push of a button. Mr. Tsegaye Tadesse can now take this message to his boss, via REUTERS. In the same article, Tsegaye Tadesse again quotes his boss as having said: “Somalia's Islamists are in full retreat after Ethiopian air strikes and a ground offensive that have killed up to 1,000 of the religious movement's fighters” while under the same breath he says of the dead that "A few are Somali but the majority are foreigners," Then he goes on to say that: “a handful of almost 300 prisoners taken after one battle for a central Somali town held British passports” All this mumbo jumbo talk is just to corroborate the false allegations being spread by the western nations and journalists, so as to cover up their own clandestine involvement in their dirty endeavor. If this, always hiding behind something, and compulsive lying, is not cowardly, I do not know what is. With truth and courage always on her side, Eritrea will prevail with honor. December 26, 2006
