Eritrean Freedom fighters how Eritrea became a country(the extraordinary struggle)

ERITREA- With the support and advice of the N.U.E.W (National Union Of Eritrean Women) Yonatan Kelib spent seven months in Eritrea filming his first self-financed independent documentary. His documentary deals with the role Eritrean women played in the 30 year independence struggle against Ethiopia and its impact today on society.

He wanted to know the personal stories of these Tegadelti [freedom fighters in Tigrinya], and what lead them to join the armed struggle, how their experiences in Meda [battle fields] helped form their perception of women's rights issues and what type of future they believe awaits the next generation of Eritrean women.

During the 30 year independence struggle, Eritrean women played a very important and significant role in helping secure this independence so this documentary allows these brave women [and men] tell their own stories in their own words. He is still editing this film but since he is a busy man in grad school at NYU, it's really hard for him currentyly to find time to complete this historic project, but he plans to complete this documentary in the near future because the sacrifices commited by the Women of Eritrea, for over three decades, has to documented for the World to see.

I feel sorry for your people because you genuinely want a country but your leaders play their cards wrong, in fact as a whole they are politically young.

The only road to independence is through Xamar. Just as Afewerki was connected to TPLF comrades in Addis Ababa who signed off Eritrea's independence, Somaliland needs to find its way to Xamar directly or through a party that can effectively declare itself rulers of Somalia and sign off on Somaliland's independence. If the TPLF did not let go of Eritrea, the EPLF would detour from Asmara and walk to Addis Ababa to finish the job.

The one problem for you guys is that you've made enemies with the only possible effective leaders in Xamar (MJs) and your only other option are too divided to play politics (HG) or too stupid to play politics (Abgaal).

Really, your only course for the next decade is to go to Xamar yourselves or strike a deal with Garowe to bid for you in Xamar. Demonstrating in front of UK offices is a waste of time and an utter joke. Independence is won on the upper tiers and behind closed doors, not the street level.

If Mjs were effective they would have turned their region into something that remotely resembled a place where people inhabited. You live in hellish region much less developed than somaliland and politically unstable. You're one stone away from becoming like Xamar; that is how unstable pirate state is. How do you reckon I would ask for help much less let you crazies decide my destiny?

No thanks, Paid. We will try out luck anywhere else.

ps. You have ran somalia and you failed. You're failure in my book.

You're speaking emotional like a woman on her period, even your reer Burco go to Bosaso for business not Berbera. Dahabshiil would rather setup headquarters in Garowe than qarax stone age Garxaajis villages where people fight over necessities like qamadi. Do not throw stones from a glass house, a sub-clan of Cumar Maxamud shits on your dumb backwards clan.

Back to topic; its Xamar or the highway, how you get there is up to you, but no victory or recognition without Xamar.

Just nonsense , pure nonsense .
We believe in the legitimacy of our claim . We're not beggars , we're pathfinders !
In terms of political acheivements you're leagues below ours , why should we bother ?

Picketing in front of Buckingham Palace or wherever the queen sleeps, is not begging?

But playing hardball in Xamar and forcing your agenda on the plate is begging?

You, sir, fail logic. You have not achieved anything politically, your clan is not known for that. Your folk held prime minister of a recognized republic for a few months, that's your political history. The rest of the time you've spent playing clan politics in a small unofficial enclave. This isn't about the past, its about facts, and facts dictate reality, and the reality is that you need to go through Xamar to be seen or heard, the world sees Hargeisa as a shanty, not a proper capital, even if you see it otherwise.

No , like I told you we're not in the same league , we're a DEMOCRACY so is Great Britain , the pirate state is a cleptocracy and Xamar a hypocrisy !

Good bye , kindly !

Daayeeryahow daayeerku dhaley, keep Garxajis out of your tigrey-cum stained mouth. You know as well as I do, your clan are nothing but paper tigers that are only known is the suppliers of dhillos to the world. GTFO if you think that we will ask anything of a country literally on the brink, about to be taken by mooryaans and pirates.

i believe only isaaq and HG can lead the somali nation with iron fist and there is nothing that can stop them, ogaadeens are busy with dealing with the ethiopians, and the rest can not have any effect

future of somalia

president isaaq
prime minister HG

the rest should just live in the country and be honest citizens

as for you saying some thing about garxajis nation is just silly garxajis are the strongest clan on the face of somalia enterms of millitary strength they produced the best poets in the somali history they are the ones who chased sayidka all the way to iimay, they are the ones who took 1000 of miles of land that belonged to your big brothers ogaadeen and it goes on and on
markaa miskiin MJ oo jufo HG iska celin kari waayey dhag hadalkiisa uma dhigayo
