The following report, which provides a first-person testimony of how Eritrean citizens are treated by their government, was first published in June 2003. It is an eyewitness report of someone who was rounded up and detained in Adi Abeito a year earlier, in July 2002. Other "visitors" of Adi Abeito include Eritreans who were deported from Malta, students, dissidents and religious minorities. In light of the government's categorical denial of recent reports of the massacre at Adi Abeito, we are republishing it so Eritreans can judge for themselves. |

When death approaches, the main story of the character, we are told, would always shout "awet nehafash"....This is a great fallacy. People's last whispered words would often be for their mothers, or fathers, and wives. This is a universal human fact across all cultures, and all ages. Unless you live in totalitarian countries or belonged to like-minded armed groups. This is how they depict the death of combatants: that he/she died saying "forward comrades", "the red star will always shine" etc. Totalitarian literature of both the socialist types and the Japanese are full of such faked last words. |

However, we should remember the elders who paid the ultimate sacrifice for playing their traditional role of mediation and reconciliation are our moral leaders and I salute their heroism. May their sacrifice bring peace and reconciliation to Eritrea. |

A few years before the new war, and the arrival of the MIG jet fighters, when both Eritrea and Ethiopia had a defense pact, a trainer plane of the nascent Eritrean Air Force crashed somewhere around an elementary school in the Mendefera area. Dimsti Hafash did not hear this loud bang, and did not broadcast it. It was busy churning propaganda. However there was this exception. Joshua, the journalist and playwright wrote an article titled "process." |

The positive attributes of the Daro, the Sycamore, and its relationship with peasant communities and their Baitos and the usurpation of its name by the ruling clique will be the message in this article. The real village Baitos remained empty shells devoid of their sovereignty. The outrage is that the EPLF authorities, and elite supporters and sympathizing foreigners were portraying its military type administration of the liberated areas as Baito-like administrations. |
