Is the USA really Eritrea’s enemy?

Post by pushkin » 25 Jun 2022, 04:58

I think the US is not the enemy of Eritrea. But the US fears the brave, self-reliant, self-confident, and enlightened Eritrean nationalist ideology which it sees as a threat to its misguided interests.

So, what is the US afraid of then?

President Isaias Afeworki once in an interview had to reply to a journalist questioning, why does the US hate you?

I would like to wrap up my article by quoting the president’s brilliant answer to the journalist which explained the root cause of the US stance against Eritrea.

“We went to the same school, we sat on the same benches, we read the same books and we had the same teachers but we interpreted what we have learned differently. Now we say, come and challenge us intellectually, while our partners tell us to take their version as the ultimate truth, which we know it isn’t”

the USA does not like Issu’s communist socialist hybrid way of thinking just like derg was… no private sector, hate the rich, hate the educated who asks questions,…
The USA is for free enterprise business and semi free on most things the individual can do things to do well in life
And you see the difference between capitalism of USA and communism of Issu/ Or mengistu . Prime example is Eritreans are good business people and you see them doing well in business outside Eritrea in Ethiopia, Kenya, South Sudan, Angola, Europe and USA BUT in Eritrea Issu will not allow them why because his school of thinking can not accommodate private sector
Who’s right or wrong… you be the judge would any Eritrean open a business in Eritrea or Uganda/Ethiopia/south Sudan…you know the answer no Eritrean will invest in issu’s Eritrea.
The USA does not hate Eritrea but hates issu’s communism practice

The Empty minded subhuman! The US as an imperialist country has a policy of exploitation and if any country opposes this policy then it becomes an Enemy. The US such hostility against Eritrea increased sharply in the middle of the 2000s when it decided to rely on Ethiopia, whom it had branded an “anchor state,” in its war against terrorism in the Horn of Africa. It subsequently instigated the Ethiopian invasion of Somalia and to “reward” Ethiopia, it intensified its effort against Eritrea, maligning its government, which has an impeccable record in fighting extremism and terrorism, as a “spoiler.” Some US officials openly spoke of “punishing” Eritrea and called for “regime change.” A series of concrete measures, including economic, diplomatic, and media pressures, were undertaken by Washington against Eritrea and the Eritrean Diaspora in the United States. It is undeniable that US flawed policies have contributed to the deteriorating situation in the Horn of Africa and beyond.

Bro
What does US care if Eritrea chooses communist system (which is completely false) or capitalism? It funny that the communist China is now owning the US, so whose ideology is prosperous? US has no ball to criticize the China for their system of while in debt of trillion dollars to China. After all, communism aren’t bad at all.

You are completely wrong why US hate Eritrea (not Issayas). USA hate Eritrea because it ain’t puppet of the “supper power” nore allows for US to control the strategic Sea of Eritrea. US hate Eritrea because it won’t take expired wheat as reward for its mission to distebelize the Horn.

When US invaded Somalia without the Somalis invitation, Eritrea was the only country who opposed it at the UN Security Council in 1994. How dare for a little and brand new country of 3 years existence challenges the Ultra Supper Power? It was only then Eritrea has been on the US black book ever since.

USA hates a self reliance and confident people which it seems yoir country Ethiopia is in short supply of. Get your facts straight; after all communist China is is owning the entire capitalist West today.

Bro, The usa administration have always been against our Eritrea, Since 1950's when all african countries got their independence from their western colonizers, My Eritrea was purpose left under ethiopia 4 z interest of usa-uk-france.(john dulles sai it clearly in 1953). Usa did not want my Eritrea 2 be independent, it always wanted it 2 be part of ethiopia & be it's slave. Since z end of ww2 and z fall of nazi, that's when usa came out a political, economical winner, when in fact it was Russia that defeated hitler not z usa, anyhow since 1945 usa-eu-france started 2 control this planet. New world order led by usa & dollar, that's when trouble of our world started. When z dollar supported by gold was z only power then and now. Usa it's self is run & controlled by less than 100 nazi-zionist-fake jews that manipulate it's economy, politics 4 over 80's years now. These few oligarchy family r z main problem between our relations and z usa. These oligarchy only care about their huge businesses and wealth and their power & how they transfer it 2 their kids. This is why even z american ppl r still a slave 2 these 100 families. So even z usa so called government is z slave of these 100 families and this is anti us Eritreans socialist and to some extent communist but most NATIONALISTS system that don't agree with z 100 families capitalist and hegemony and 1 world order system. Even z american ppl hate the usa government & z 100 oligarchy family of usa, and that's why we Eritreans r anti z 100 oligarchy not only of usa but all over z world as well. And don't forget these same oligarchy r still economically and politically are against our Eritrean nationalists idea of 1 Eritrea 4 all Eritreans & Eritrea first & seeing every Eritrea poor and rich with the same eye. And z same 100 usa oligarchy r secretly and openly supporting our enemy terrorist-tplf.

Ok, remember though regimes come and go … friends and foe Or enemies and allies change as regimes change
Eritrea relationship with the USA is the same, once Issu’s regime go there will probably be a big change… never say never… there is a saying no permanent enemies or friends but permanent interest…
USA bombed Japan with the biggest bomb but now best friends, the same with Germany
Remember usa was pro Ethiopia during his majesty’s rule but our enemy during mengistu regime and then our allay during meles regime and Abiy 🤔 ❓ :roll:
So never say never and USA doesn’t not hate a country or people but individuals like Issu
