ReplyDeleteCrocodile tears for a sheep who went to the slaughter? Or, is it another servant of the tyrant bites the dust? Whichever it is; good riddance. May all those tyrants who continue to inflict so much suffering on the Eritrean people eat dirt.
ReplyDeleteBrig.General Kesetebrhan Gebrehiwot Mebrahatu time have came to leave this world of ours, after I heard the biography of this amazing person,I am so honored to belong the same country he is from. Many Eritreans and Ethiopian diplomat in the mid 70th when Dergue overthrow Haileslassie they stayed where ever they where living or moved elsewhere, But Brig General KGM and his wife took the kids to join the struggle,what a family of patriots. The knowledge and know how he left behind this and future Eritreans will benefit tremendously.
ReplyDeleteREST IN PEACE, Brig. Kesetebrhan Gebrehiwot,
ReplyDelete.

Your contribution for our independence is Priceless !!!
You are the reason today we proudly say:- We Are Eritreans !!!
May God/Allah give comfort to all Eritreans, especially your families and your loved ones.
You are the true son of Eritrea and will miss you dearly.
Thank you.
RIP our hero.
ReplyDeleteThe last two years more than ten high ranking military officers, including five Generals have died. That is quite strange ! What exactly is happening to those officers. I strongly believe that those generals are being secretly murdered. We have to demand investigation on this matter.
It is time for you to check in to a mental hospital.
ReplyDeleteThank you for making us proud. I salute YOU 'kebur hawena. Rest in peace!
ReplyDeleteOne thing about soldiers is that they do not look after themselves that well, they drink and smoke a lot that is the typical behaviour of hardcore soldiers. And can you blame them after the things that they have been through and seen on the battlefields.
ReplyDeleteR.I.P Our hero's, I know you'll all be having a good drink and catchup with your former comrade's up in heaven
Life is journey you too has travel. Unlike you who wasted their time in the streets of West begging for your daily bread; here are the Eritreans have done it and the have liberated, defended, built their people and country.
ReplyDeleteDo not worry, these bigger than life Eritrean heroes has already paved the road of Eritrean and that is why have trained the next generation of Eritrean heroes. Trained, educated by YIKEALO, take a look at WARSAI in charge. Following the footsteps of YIKEALO here is WARSAI in charge, defending and building his home
Eritrea was in good hands yesterday, Eritrea is in good hands today, and Eritrea shall be in good hands come morning.
Go ahead, make my day and show me your 'WAI----WAI-----" from the streets of begging.
THE GREAT LEADER IS GETTING RID OF THEM ONE BY ONE...LIKE KIM...LIKE HIS UNCLE!!WATCH OUT WHO IS NEXT.?.......ONE STUPID SAID SOMETHING LIKE THE ARMY NOT TAKING GOOD CARE OF THEMSELVES LIKE DRINKING,SMOKING...NONSENSE. DOESNT THE GREAT LEADER DRINK?
ReplyDelete"I strongly believe that those generals are being secretly murdered."
ReplyDeleteHow about, ... I strongly believe you (Dan) is Moron!,
.
Stop this non-sense "I Believe, this, I believe that ...", We need proof. If you do not have one, have a little respect for the General and his family.
How is anyone able to find a proof if the whole nation has its hands tied, its mouth muzzled ? Let alone others do investigative journalism, even the families of the deceased are terrified to do an biopsy of their loved ones.
ReplyDeleteGet real. All those deaths are just too many to be due to natural causes.
