PART III ISAYAS AFEWERKI: ERITREAN OR TIGREAN/ETHIOPIAN?
WHERE IS THE "… PROUD TRADITION OF LOVE OF TRUTH…"?
Dr. Fisseha-Tsion Menghistu & Associates
29 December, 2000
(NB: We like to bring to the attention of our readers that this article was E-mailed to Meskerem.net on 14-15 December and later to Awate.com specifically focused to Eritrean audience. But this Part III has been censored by both websites than are often described as Eritrean opposition websites that oppose the one man dictatorship and that are claiming to promote democracy in Eritrea)
PART (A)
3.1 INTRODUCTION
In PART I of our article - FROM BLIND LOYALTY TO A LETTER OF APPEAL (See meskerem.net 25 October which was in fact a draft and un polished version attached and posting by mistake as opposed to the final version) we tried to bring to the attention of all Eritreans and others concerned on the need to stop the bleeding, un acceptable death, destruction and suffering that Isayas Afewerki and his clique have brought about on the present and future generation of Eritreans.
We also tried to briefly explain some of the reasons why we hold Isayas and some few others responsible and accountable for the suffering of the Eritrean people. Part I also attempted to highlight some of our longstanding opposition to Isayas and his regime.
Part II was intended to criticize the Berlin petitioners for their despicable track record for blindly supporting one of the inhuman and heartless dictators of the late 20th century and for their manifest failure of their moral duty and intellectual responsibility to the people of Eritrea and for their un acceptable degree of opportunism they have shown over the years and for their shameful failure to uphold truth, justice, democracy, rule of law and human rights for the people whom they claim to care.
When the 13 or 13-1 issued a petition unashamedly acknowledging on p. 2 of their letter claiming that there had been "a proud tradition for love of truth and respect for the opinion of others", we were furious, deeply shocked and stunned that they can dare to say such kinds of things when there is ample evidence to show to the contrary. The main reason why we have been persecuted and never set our foot in the last 25 years in Dengue’s and Isayas’s Eritrea is because of the manifest absence of these fundamental values. That is why we are uncompromising on what we think are the core values and aspirations of our people as well as of ours.
It is this big and shameful lie than anything else that provoked us to write these articles. We will soon be posting an article to give concrete facts based on our personal experiences to show that there had never been A "...
PROUD TRADITION OF LOVE OF TRUTH…and respect for the opinion of others". Part II was written against this background. (See meskerem.net of 15 November 2000)
However, when we started to write our personal account of what we faced in the last 25 years to refute the 13-1’s claim that there had been "a proud tradition of respect for the opinion of others", we received a more shocking information that also completely negates the Berlin petitioner's claim of Eritrean "proud tradition of love for truth" with respect to their President himself.
To be more concrete, we now have received authentic and reliable information that would show that both parents of this extra ordinarily evil man who has brought about incalculable suffering on the present and future generation of Eritreans as well as Ethiopians for 30 years and who has created unforgettable scars of animosity between Eritreans and Ethiopians is after all a Tigrean/Ethiopian himself whose mother is from Adwa and his father from TENBIEN inside Tigray/Ethiopia.
The following are some of the relevant information that we feel Eritreans, Ethiopians, Africans and the rest of the world are entitled to know and draw their own conclusions regarding this extra ordinary tragic story of war of brothers.

ISAYAS AFEWERKI’S ERITREANNESS: MYTH VS. REALITY
3.2.1 A BRIEF TIGREAN/ETHIOPIAN FAMILY BACKGROUND OF THE ERITREAN PRESIDENT THAT THE WORLD SHOULD KNOW
Isayas Afewerki’s father is called Ato Mr./Ato Afewerq Abraha. His mother’s name is Mrs/Woz ADANECH Berhe. Their children are:
1 Ato Amare Afewerq (Afewerki*) (* intended to camouflage Eritreaness)
2 Ato Isayas Afewerq (Afewerki)
3 Ato Amanuel Afewerq
4 Ato Ermias Afewrq
5 Ato Yonas Afewerq
6 Woz. Tsigereda Afewerq
7 Woz. Arian Afewerq(ki)
3.3.2 FAMILY BACKGROUND OF THE ERITREAN PRESIDENT
Isayas’s Father, Mr. AFEWERQ/KI)
is from ADI TANQUA-MILASH/ TEMBIEN and they trace their roots to AGAME AWARAJA OF TIGRAY in Ethiopia.
Isaya’s father used to work in MEKELE, the capital of Tigray Province/Administrative region. Isayas’s father used to work at the Ministry of Land Reform until his retirement. Until he died those who knew him in Tigray used to identify him as "the man who wears a black suit, a black "cravat"/neck tie and a black hat".
Isayas’s Mother
Woz. ADANECH BERHE is from ADWA in Tigray/Ethiopia. This is also the birthplace of the father of Ethiopia’s Prime Minister.
ISAYAS’s uncles (via his father) are:
1 Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha
2 Captain Mekonnen Abraha
3 Ato Hagos Abraha
Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha (Isayas’s cousin) was the Enderassie/Governor of WOLLO province in Ethiopia during the reign of Emperor Haile Sellassie. In 1964 (E.C) the Tigray Cultural group based in Mekele visited Dessie, the Capital City of Wollo after their tour to Asmara. The Governor of Wollo at the time Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha (The Eritrean President’s uncle) in a special dinner organised in their honour expressed his pleasure and gratitude to the Cultural Group for their initiative of popularising the Tigrean folklore music and dances because he told them that he was a Tigrean himself.
Dejazmatch Solomon Abraha also revealed to them that his own mother was from Agame Awraja in Beganta-Afeshum Woreda (Sub-District) in a village called QIL-A-AT" in Tigray/Ethiopia.
Dejazmatch Solomon also told them that his father was from TENBIEN in Tigray/ETHIOPIA.
Navy Captain Mekonnen Abraha was "married" to the daughter of Dejazmatch Ghebray who was a student at Empress Menen School in Addis Ababa and he is believed to have children from her.
Ato Hagos Abraha was one of the student veterans of Teferi Makonnen School in Addis Ababa who also was one of the Goalkeepers of the Ist Division of the same School in the mid 1940s who discontinued his studies due to ill health and later died when he was working at the National Bank in Addis Ababa.
3.3 ISAYAS AFEWERKI’S GRAND PARENTS AND OTHER RELATIVES
Isayas’s Grand mother (on his mother’ s side) is called Woz. Medhin "Berad" and she is from ADWA in Tigray/Ethiopia. She is the brother of Fitewrari Kidane Mesel.
It is also alleged that Fitewrari Kidane is the father of either Ato Kassahun or Ato Yemane Kidane (otherwise known as "JAMAICA") of the TPLF/EPRDF ruling group of Ethiopia. If this is true, it implies that Ato "JAMAICA" and Isayas Afewerki of Eritrea are in a sense brothers by our Eritrean/Ethiopian definition but a cousin in Western sense. It is also said that some of the closest people around Isayas Afewerki also have a Tigrean blood. In short, many of those who are fanatic anti-Ethiopian and anti- Woyanes in Asmara are mainly Tigreans/Ethiopians by origin and those who have had strong links and connections with Tigray in particular and Ethiopia in general.
Isayas’s aunt (i.e. the sister of Isayas’s mother) is called Woz.Hana. She is the wife of Ato Belay. Both Woz. Hana and Ato Belay are from ADWA. It is alleged that their children are living in Sweden.
Isayas’s uncle (on his mother’s side) is married to a woman from Adwa and has a daughter named Woz. Zewdi who is now said to be living in Germany.
From the above information we have received the ONLY "ERITREANNESS" OF ISAYAS AFEWERKI IS THAT HE WAS BORN IN ERITREAN SOIL AND HE IS MARRIED TO WOZ. SABA HAILE OF SHIMEZANA OF ERITREA.
This is a shocking story that will take many years for the true and genuine Eritreans and the blind supporters of this brutal dictator and a communist tyrant. We have no doubt in our minds that these types of new revelations about the family background and roots of the President of Eritrea are beyond belief and extraordinary.
Thus quite to the contrary to the 13-1’s claim of "proud tradition of love of truth" we are sure that Eritreans whose families have sacrificed their loved ones as well as other Eritreans who have in good faith made material and other forms of sacrifices for the last 30 years would describe Isayas’s lie and actions as the most shameful and extra-ordinary betrayals of truth of the century as far as Eritreans are concerned.
Those Eritreans whose families have sacrificed in the last 30 years to keep this evil man in power and who sincerely and genuinely have blindly supported his pseudo Eritrean national identity would find these revelations as a tragic shock for every one.
The reason why we have stated in Part II of our Article of 15 November, 2000 that Isayas is a half Tigrean/Ethiopians is because we did not have enough information about his other half of his parents and we did not want to rush or mislead our people on important matters like this
We like to stress that those who have forwarded us this information are said to be well informed and have an inside information about Isayas Afewerki’s family and relatives. For those who have any doubts about this, we take this opportunity to appeal all Eritreans to make their own investigations and arrive at their own respective conclusions.

3.4 EMBARARSING DILEMA FOR BLIND ISAYAS LOYALISTS
Some fanatic Isayas loyalist Eritreans see and regard Ethiopians as our enemies. They argue that they do not have anything to do with what they un ashamedly call as "the Agames/Ugums or the poor and underdeveloped or uncivilized Ethiopians".
These types of "civilized" Eritrean elements living in either Asmara or as immigrants in the United States or elsewhere in the world, how few they may be, delude themselves as "rich, affluent, modern and civilized" and treat the Agames from Tigray as "inferior human beings". Some of them even go as far as saying that any one who is not an Eritrean may not have the right to live and work in Eritrea (except for doing the things such as garbage collection, household work and break laying etc., that Eritreans are not willing to do) let alone to see a Tigrean/Ethiopian as the President of the people of Eritrea. They say that is after all the reason why they fought for 30 years.
Those Eritreans who have argued that Eritreans are different from Ethiopians and want a Chinese or Berlin wall to separate them from Ethiopians or the people whom they (Isayas loyalists) despise as the "Agames/Ugums or the poor and uncivilized Ethiopians etc.." would now find themselves chocked and embarrassed to learn that their brutal murderer is strictly speaking not an Eritrean but a Tigrean/Ethiopian and hence should not have been a leader in the first place.
The truth now is that the man to whom the future of Eritreans and Eritrea was entrusted is not an Eritrean after all but a Tigrean/Ethiopian by origin. Strictly speaking, the leader of Eritrea Isayas Afewerki has neither the firm blood and family roots in Eritrea nor the legitimacy to be the leader of the people of Eritrea.
If one strictly applies the ethnic and tribal criteria of TPLF/EPLF virus in Eritrea to expel non-Eritreans from Eritrean soil as it is done now then Isayas himself has no business in Eritrea and ought to have been expelled with the rest of what they call "Agames" and others who by the way have lived more years in Eritrean soil than Isayas himself.
However, since we have a good understanding of the state of the global world, the nature of mobility and immigration of people around the world (including Eritreans living outside Eritrea itself) and taking into account the intertwined relationship and inseparable destiny between our two brotherly peoples we do not share sectarian, racist, tribalist and exclusionist policies of some of these Isayas loyalists of Eritreans. Nor do we share and support the extremist, narrow nationalist, fascist ideas and views of Isayas loyalists who are living in comfort in the United States or elsewhere and still advocate of creating an isolated and poor Eritrea.
If we push the reasoning of some of these narrow nationalist and sectarian Isayas loyalists and some few other Eritreans to the limit we would have a problem in determining who is and is not strictly a real and an authentic Eritrean because many of them, particularly those who are from Eritrean highlands know very well that they have some roots with Tigray or Ethiopia either that originates in the last 60 years or in some distant past.
It must be stressed that Eritreans are not a special species that originate from another planet. We have common roots with Ethiopians (as the English, Scottish and Walish have with each other) that we cannot ignore and we must also be proud to accept and we see no reason why anti-Ethiopian should be a criteria or identity of Eritreanness.
As far as we are concerned some of those sectarian and extremist elements of Isayas loyalist Eritreans could after all be non Eritreans by origin or they may have dubious family backgrounds and personal track record that they want to hide (like Isayas Afewerki) and who want to appear more catholic than the pope himself. That is why they sometimes appear to be more Eritreans than the true and authentic Eritreans themselves.

Re: Well Written Article for Eritreans Isaias Afwerki mother is from Adwa, Tigray
MANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PRESIDENT OF ERITREA THAT ERITREANS MUST FIND A GOOD ANSWER TO MAKE A NEW BEGINNING
In light of the above, it is legitimate to ask at least the following questions:
1 While the President of Eritrea knows that he is of Tigrean/Ethiopian extraction why has he been anti-Ethiopian in general and anti Tigrean in particular and decided to wage war against the country of his mother and father?
2 Why has he lied and denied his Tigrean/Ethiopian family background for too long until it is discovered by others and appeared to be a fanatic Eritrean than many other genuine Eritreans?
3 Why should Isayas - a Tigrean/Ethiopian allow the Eritrean and Ethiopian people to engage in mutual killings and annihilation when he ought to have been a bridge of peace and reconciliation between our peoples who happen to be artificially divided by former Italian colonialists for their own ends and benefits?
4 Why has he been so much ashamed of his Tigrean/Ethiopian background that have a glorious history against colonialism and foreign domination who have managed to keep their country independent while the rest of Africa was under colonial rule?
5 Why has he decided to disown his roots? And why should Eritreans needlessly sacrifice so much for 30 years if the net benefit is only to one man and the misery and suffering of our people is what we see now by the end of the year 2000?
6 Why has he shed so many Eritrean and Ethiopian lives when they could have created a type of relationship based on dignity, equality and mutual respect for each other without so much sacrifices?
7 Why has he used divide and rule policies between our people while he should have forged to strengthen and promote all round relationship between our brotherly peoples?
8 Why have the families and relatives of Isayas kept amazingly silent to hide the truth of their roots?
9 Why should Isayas’s family get shamed to identify themselves with the people of Tigray/Ethiopia?
10 . Why did Isayas and his family rejected the Glory of Axumite Kingdom and the proud history and tradition of the people of ancient and modern Tigray as well as the rest of Ethiopia?
11 Why did many Eritreans decide to make supreme sacrifices to fight against Ethiopia for 30 years, and particularly since 1991 while their future prosperity also very much depend on having a good brotherly cooperation with Ethiopia and Sudan?
12 Why doesn’t this generation of Eritreans prefer to invest its time and life to improve the quality and standard of living of the Eritrean people and find a good answer to a question of what is it that they have benefited from this bloody war of brothers?
In light of the above, it is legitimate to ask at least the following questions:
1 While the President of Eritrea knows that he is of Tigrean/Ethiopian extraction why has he been anti-Ethiopian in general and anti Tigrean in particular and decided to wage war against the country of his mother and father?

Re: Well Written Article for Eritreans Isaias Afwerki mother is from Adwa, Tigray
SOME REASONS WHY THE PRESIDENT OF ERITREA SHOULD BE REMOVED?
As we have tried to briefly explain in Part I and II of our previous articles, Isayas’s track record show beyond any reasonable doubt that the man is only obsessed with power than solving the socio-economic problems of either the Eritrean or Ethiopian people. His power and empire was built on anti Ethiopia, anti-Amhara and now anti Tigrean agenda. There is a mountain of evidence to prove this.
As far as we are concerned, the Isayas Afewerki has been for all intents and purposes a heartless communist dictator since he first became a leader of EPLF 30 years ago. Now, we have found out that he has also been a professional liar with no sense of personal integrity throughout his life.
In the last 30 years Eritreans have not seen peace, democracy and meaningful development. They have not seen what the real benefits genuine peace and reconciliation can bring about.
Isayas and his one-man dominated EPLF/PFDJ did not only betray the trust and confidence of many Eritreans, but has permanently ruined the lives of the vast majority of Eritreans and Ethiopians. He quarrelled with Djibouti and Sudan and went to war with Yemen. He has sacrificed the lives of so many Eritreans to prove himself to be seen as the leader of the region. Moreover, the communist "Eritrean" tyrant has made Eritrea a graveyard for a half a million people.
Isayas has led a life of lying for 30 years about his family background. He pretended to be an Eritrean while both of his parents are from Tigray/Ethiopia. He mobilized the vast majority of Eritreans to go to senseless and needless war against our Ethiopian brothers with whom we have inseparable future.
The President of Eritrea and his other Tigrean or half Eritrean clique around him have mislead and brain washed the innocent Eritrean people to make ultimate sacrifices under the guise of the so- called "the defence of Eritrea’s sovereignty, territorial integrity and national independence" while the only objective of the sacrifice has been to put a communist tyrant in power.
Even after the cessation of hostilities was signed in Algiers on 18 June 2000, the Isayas regime was lying that Ethiopia is preparing to fight another war to control Asmara and Assab and spreading many false alarms about imminent Ethiopian invasion solely intended to divert the attention of the mind of Eritreans from getting the time to reflect and to squarely blame and remove their leader for their suffering.
Our view has been clear all along. There was no reason or justification for Eritreans to go to war and sacrifice more lives, particularly in post 1991. The war instigated by Isayas was predominantly a power struggle to put himself the life President of Eritrea and the region and has nothing to do either to improve the standard of living or the quality of life of our people. It has only brought death and destruction and collective sadness and grief as well as trauma for all of us. He is also a menace to Sudan.
However, the vast majority of Eritreans have been indoctrinated to believe that Ethiopia and Ethiopians are their no.1 enemy. Unfortunately Isayas has created enormous fear of Ethiopia or Ethiopians in order to keep himself in power. To go to war after 1991 against Ethiopians (after Eritreans got what they have fought for 30 years is) absolute insanity. Much to our regret not many Eritreans condemned him for exposing his own people to so much suffering and misery.
Many innocent, misguided and misinformed Eritreans argue that "even Isayas knows that this is a stupid war". The question they have not been able to answer is why Isayas himself decided to invade his own country and his own people and declare war against his own roots?
His blind loyalists do not think he was the invader when there is every evidence to show to the contrary. For them the issue has become a religion than a question of facts and truth. After this revelation of his family roots, we hope that his blind loyalists will now find him a source of embarrassment.
The biggest mistake Eritreans have done is to trust a man whose origin they did not know. Isayas have for reasons known to himself always perceived Ethiopians as his enemies although his view also seem to change at times.
When Eritreans and Ethiopians one day take a deep breath and start to stop and think, the strategy of mutual and annihilation that had happened in the last 30 years in general and the senseless war instigated by Isayas in 1998 and its devastating consequences this has brought about on the present and future generation of Eritreans, Isayas has no where to hide in the world.
We must also confess one reason why Isayas failed the people of Eritrea is because many Eritreans, particularly those in diaspora put total trust on a man whose only obsession is to kill to be a president for life. Many Eritreans in diaspora knew that Eritrea was a trust ship territory of one man and not an independent country since 1991. But it turned out to be the worst type of trust ship where Eritreans within Eritrea who sacrificed to be free and independent ended up being a hostage of one of the communist tyrants and brutal dictators in the world who exposed the Eritrean people to wars that brought them only misery, suffering and humiliation.
In the last two years alone he has brought about a humiliating defeat of his army. He needlessly sacrificed 200,000 innocent Eritrean lives not to mention the hundreds of thousands of Ethiopians. He has squandered substantial financial resources of the country that ought to have been spent to save lives and for development. Above all, he has brought about a deep wound and scar between our brotherly peoples.
The main reason why we condemn Isayas and some others around him are also for hiding their true origins, for their manifest lack of integrity and for their inhuman behavior as well as for instigating a needless and senseless war that does not benefit our people and whose consequences are death, destruction, misery and humiliation.
Isayas the terrible is a symbol of war, suffering, humiliation, and betrayal of ones own roots, history and culture. Instead of building bridges of peace and reconciliation between Eritreans on one hand and the rest of the Tigrean and our big Ethiopian family of nations on the other. He brought about a war and enormous suffering to the people of Eritrea who put a totally blind trust on a man whose origin they never wanted to know and whose powers they never wanted to question. This is the consequences that people have to face when emotion than reason reigns supreme in the minds of every one and when the very people who are suffering refuse to revolt against a brutal dictatorship that is no less cruel than Mengistu Hailemariam’s Ethiopia. The fact is Isayas has been an experienced and professional killer all the time.
In Eritrea, there is also plenty of dehumanizing state of affairs. Many Eritreans within Eritrea are suffering. Those who have been to Eritrea now admit that prices of basic needs have gone up to un acceptable levels. Many of the Eritreans have gone to the front to fight. Many Eritrean families are suffering from three decades of bereavement. They cannot speak due to fear and terror. There is a silent anger and disillusionment by those who have lost their loved ones and by those soldiers, "warsay" and conscripts who have been betrayed by Isayas.
As we have tried to briefly explain in Part I and II of our previous articles, Isayas’s track record show beyond any reasonable doubt that the man is only obsessed with power than solving the socio-economic problems of either the Eritrean or Ethiopian people. His power and empire was built on anti Ethiopia, anti-Amhara and now anti Tigrean agenda. There is a mountain of evidence to prove this.
As far as we are concerned, the Isayas Afewerki has been for all intents and purposes a heartless communist dictator since he first became a leader of EPLF 30 years ago. Now, we have found out that he has also been a professional liar with no sense of personal integrity throughout his life.
In the last 30 years Eritreans have not seen peace, democracy and meaningful development. They have not seen what the real benefits genuine peace and reconciliation can bring about.
Isayas and his one-man dominated EPLF/PFDJ did not only betray the trust and confidence of many Eritreans, but has permanently ruined the lives of the vast majority of Eritreans and Ethiopians. He quarrelled with Djibouti and Sudan and went to war with Yemen. He has sacrificed the lives of so many Eritreans to prove himself to be seen as the leader of the region. Moreover, the communist "Eritrean" tyrant has made Eritrea a graveyard for a half a million people.
Isayas has led a life of lying for 30 years about his family background. He pretended to be an Eritrean while both of his parents are from Tigray/Ethiopia. He mobilized the vast majority of Eritreans to go to senseless and needless war against our Ethiopian brothers with whom we have inseparable future.
The President of Eritrea and his other Tigrean or half Eritrean clique around him have mislead and brain washed the innocent Eritrean people to make ultimate sacrifices under the guise of the so- called "the defence of Eritrea’s sovereignty, territorial integrity and national independence" while the only objective of the sacrifice has been to put a communist tyrant in power.
Even after the cessation of hostilities was signed in Algiers on 18 June 2000, the Isayas regime was lying that Ethiopia is preparing to fight another war to control Asmara and Assab and spreading many false alarms about imminent Ethiopian invasion solely intended to divert the attention of the mind of Eritreans from getting the time to reflect and to squarely blame and remove their leader for their suffering.
Our view has been clear all along. There was no reason or justification for Eritreans to go to war and sacrifice more lives, particularly in post 1991. The war instigated by Isayas was predominantly a power struggle to put himself the life President of Eritrea and the region and has nothing to do either to improve the standard of living or the quality of life of our people. It has only brought death and destruction and collective sadness and grief as well as trauma for all of us. He is also a menace to Sudan.
However, the vast majority of Eritreans have been indoctrinated to believe that Ethiopia and Ethiopians are their no.1 enemy. Unfortunately Isayas has created enormous fear of Ethiopia or Ethiopians in order to keep himself in power. To go to war after 1991 against Ethiopians (after Eritreans got what they have fought for 30 years is) absolute insanity. Much to our regret not many Eritreans condemned him for exposing his own people to so much suffering and misery.
Many innocent, misguided and misinformed Eritreans argue that "even Isayas knows that this is a stupid war". The question they have not been able to answer is why Isayas himself decided to invade his own country and his own people and declare war against his own roots?

Following a hated TPLF mafia group blindly is worse than insanity. It’s stupidity. If insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results, maybe stupidity can be defined as continuing to do things when you know they make you feel like crap and aren’t good for you.
