(a) On 26 April 2006, a shipment of arms consisting of AK 47 assault rifles, PKM machine guns, RPG 7s and a variety of ammunition arrived on a dhow at the seaport of El Ma’an. The arms were from the Government of Eritrea and were destined for the ICU

ICU member Aden Hashi Farah “Eyrow”, one of the leaders of the Hizbul Shabaab (Youth Movement), took possession of the arms and military uniforms. The shipment was loaded onto lorries and transported...

Hi yonas,

Eritrea was supporting IUC openly. But it was't just Eritrea (Libya and Egypt). they just wanted to blame only Eritrea.

google (751/1907 Monitoring Group on Somalia) click on the 3rd link, a word document.

page 10

"On 26 July 2006, a meeting took place in Mogadishu between officials from the ICU and visiting Libyan, Egyptian and Eritrean senior military officers at the residence of ICU...military training would be provided 3800 fighters..Egypt and Eritrea would provide instructors.."

[TTTANTO]

Y is that so many agames pretend 2b eritreans and most of them they got different nicknames to give their negative comment on Eritrea.

long live to PIA, all politicians and to the real Eretrawian people!!!

DEATH TO TRAITORS and TO ENEMIES.

[Yonas1875]

Yes They should show the world evidence of Eritrean weapons or boots on the somali ground before the sanctions. But they cant do that as they will find they along with ethiopia are the biggest suppliers of weapons there. But this is not about somalia, this is about keeping Eritrea on a war footing so that it declines as a hostage it is now while Ethiopia is busy dealing with somalia and other internal issues. Ask yourselves why was the cursed badme given to Eritrea?

[Yonas1875]

If Eritrea was supplying arms to somalia via sea or air (the only possible links), how does that go undetected while the US is stationed there to supposedly monitor Irans activities from there. If they cant sink Eritrea's fishing boats made in Medeber brimming with AK47's accompanied by Somali and Eritrean pirates or down Eritrean planes loaded with AK47 reroute to Somalia, how do they plan to protect the planet from Ahmedinejad's WMD? Incredible!

(d) On 19 June 2006, a dhow arrived at El Ade seaport (Mogadishu area) containing 24 LAWs (M72-series lightweight anti-armour weapon), 1200 anti-tank mines, 4000 F1 hand grenades, an unspecified number of small arm ammunition boxes, 2000 uniforms, 1500 military style, individual water bottles, and medicines. The arms and other items were transported from the Port of Assab, Eritrea.

@Yonas1875

(f) On 4 July 2006, four flights of Eritrean military aircraft landed at Esaley Airport located in the northeastern area of Mogadishu; two of the flights contained arms for the ICU and two of the flights transported a total of approximately 500 military personnel consisting of Eritrean military and fighters from the Ethiopian insurgent groups ONLF and OLF.

Subsequent to their arrival at Esaley, all of the military personnel were transported to El Ma’an seaport....

@Yonas1875

(g) On 15 July 2006, Colonel Yusuf Negash Warque, an Eritrean military officer, arrived in Mogadishu on a chartered aircraft. The Colonel, who speaks Somali, conducted a meeting with leaders of the Supreme Council of Islamic Courts including from both the Executive Committee and the Majlis Al Shura (Consultative Committee). The following day, 16 July, Colonel Warque departed Mogadishu in a Toyota pick-up truck and, escorted by four (4) technicals..

[Yonas1875]

WHO CARES ABOUT THESE SANCTIONS? do we depend on aid? NO. Are we in active war where we may run short of ammunition and spares?, NO. Do our "Secretive and Corrupt" officials have millions of funds in foreign banks which could be frozen? NO. So these sanctions are IRRELEVANT

[Yonas1875]

Selam could have many issues with the government in Eritrea, many people have and that is healthy and natural, otherwise we would all be clones of each other. Groups or individuals such as Selam and  the guy from the other week - "self stated product of the West" lose credibility when they cant distinguish the external injustice and hostility against Eritrea from the internal issues they oppose in Eritrea. Continued above

[ps3mastaz]

@Yonas1875 Selam Kidane's father had served as a General in the Ethiopian army fighting against Eritrea. Her Ethiopian husband had also served as an officer in the Ethiopian army fighting against Eritrea. She was born and raised in Ethiopia, and when she asked to be granted an asylum in the UK she lied to the immigration office stating that she had fled her native Ethiopia to avoid being conscripted in to the Ethiopian army. The truth is: women were exempt from serving in the Ethiopian army.

[addisu676]

The white dude got a fat Nakfa CHECK in other words Blood money--> ..and sirak bahlbi i think is out of love for his country but on the wrong side ..and the black lady is a wana be journalist ..and last but not least ..---->selam kidane ...a True eritrean ..

[ps3mastaz]

@addisu676

[TTTANTO]

@addisu676

YOU NEED TO COME OUT FROM CORRUPTION AND FEED YOUR OWN PEOPLE FIRST B4 YOU TALK RUBBISH ABOUT SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T KNOW.!!!

WE SAY AWET N'HAFASH and YOU SAY LONG LIVE TO AID!!!

[Nubian4Queen]

No, Sanctions on Eritrea are NOT justified.

USA is framing Eritrea for simply insisting on being a partner and not a mere puppet.

- This "framing" act is brazen. USA used Al-Shabab, which has no links whatsoever with Eritrea for framing. Because the more moderate Hizbul Islam, which has an office in Eritrea, was not "extremist enough" to frame Eritrea with it.

This is a shameful & sickening act which exposes USA's cruel and destructive "my way or the highway" foreign policy.

[Kachavite]

In the absence of a genuine Eritrean opposition, it is the Ethiopian natives with Tigrean roots, or those who are Tigrean by marriage such as Selam Kidane, hired as mercenaries by the slave-puppet regime in Ethiopia to falsely assume the "opposition" character and parrot about a country they neither have set foot nor know its people & history.

The Tigrean Sarah Palin -- Selam Kidane -- who can actually see Eritrea from her front porch in London, deserves to be the governor of Tigray.

[wediafom]

lol, Well said bro!!

[socalboho1]

As a citizen of Britain, I wonder if she thinks she would have the ability to question that government. They would laugh at her and tell her to run away.

[rima110]

Everytime an Eritrean doesn't defend his/her government or have doubts and questions about it...they are Ethiopian(Tigrian)????? uhhh..ok

[gualeri1]

@rima110 yes rima, that is what isayas has fed the eritreans in the diaspora to believe. that anyone who thinks independently and goes against the government, is ethiopian. its crazy.

[Yikealo77]

Thankyou for speaking on behalf of those voiceless eritreans.

Selam is such a proud eritrean who keep fighting for eritrean peoples right.

BTW how many of you know that Eritrean president is born from Ethiopian (Tigrain) father.

[africanshine]

Evil Selam...

[nakfa]

Selam is actully Ethiopian, Why is she acting like Eritrean lol

[Kachavite]

Selam Kidane's father had served as a General in the Ethiopian army fighting against Eritrea. Her Ethiopian husband from Tigray had also served as an officer in the Ethiopian army fighting against Eritrea. She was born and raised in Ethiopia, and when she asked to be granted an asylum in the UK she lied to the immigration office stating that she had fled her native Ethiopia to avoid being conscripted in to the Ethiopian army.
