Eritrean opposition to the govt, that makes sense.

Post by Zmeselo » 31 Oct 2022, 11:43

Dr. Andebrhan WeldeGiorgis is known for his sharp criticism of the Eritrean gov't, but that doesn't blind him from speaking the truth about the ongoing conflict with TPSF (Tigray People's Slavery Front).





Let's go back to 2020 & see what was being said then:

Eritrea's 2% RRT (Recovery & Rehabilitation Tax), is part and parcel of Eritrea's taxation law and system and levying of such a tax is an exclusive matter that concerns its citizens in the Diaspora (not citizens of other countries of Eritrean descent).

In the past, courts in Sweden, Canada & Switzerland found not a single case of "extortion/harassment" involved in collecting 2% RRT, hence throwing the case for "lack of clear substantial violations and evidence."

Eritreans challenge @DavidAltonHL, to provide the police with any 'evidence'.

Dare!



Poor David Alton has a thing or two to learn from the Swedish parliament (Riksdag), when it comes to allegations such as this.

Germany, Sweden, and the UK have already proved the legality of the 2% RRT collection and have thrown similar allegations for lack of violations of any of the local laws as well as provisions of the UN Resolutions.




Swistzerland closes probe into ‘illegal’ Eritrean tax claim

It can be stated that under international law, it is permissible for a State to tax citizens residing abroad. However, it is not permissible for a state to take action without the consent of the territory of another State to recover the fund. If these measures include criminal documents, it must of course be prosecuted and punished. The foregoing means that if the representative of Eritrea in the recovery order acting in a criminal way (eg with unlawful stalking, blackmail or threats) against someone in Sweden should be handled by the judiciary in the context of current legislation. It should be emphasized that for this type of behavior to come to the attention of the authorities normally requires that he affected police reports it. It does not see the need for any new laws to address criminal activity for the specific context of the Eritrean tax collection. The Committee therefore proposes that Parliament rejects motions 2012/13

Surprise... Surprise

Haha do you believe after all there are opposition to higdef regime. This is a positive development.

Look aite weteto indaboy andu, aite zemeslo, I hope you have read the novel titled "weteto indaboy andu". Few weeks ago I recommended that you read it.

The book indulges pertinently on a village not far from asmara.

Aboy andu was a rich person and he owned a large ranch. So he gave the full authority to his WETETO and who later was known as weteto aboy andu.

Hey, I am quoting what I read in the book. The weteto was highly feared in the ranch (same as issu worshippers).

The weteto was served on daily basis with green lash grasses which were brought from other regions (gash comes to mind) besides 5 young good looking goats were put under his disposal.

His task was to announce loudly issayas oops aboy andu or death as you. the cows, the oxen, the the chickens, the donkeys, the goats.. Etc. have to bow whenever aboy andu shows up and loudly chant long live our lion of of gele mele same as you.

Man! I loved the book and I am re-reading it.

An opposition should be like Dr. Andebrhan. I have total respect for him. He has always the best interest of Eritrea at heart.
He never ever undermines the right of Eritrea to defend itself unlike the quislings who conspire with TPLF to endanger its security
for crumbs.

It is the stand he has that I admire him for. He never flinches and wags his tail to the Weyanes as so many so called opposition do. This could be the reason they don't like him.

As for Weteto indaboy Andu...
Are you still reading bedtime stories? :lol:
I read it many years ago when I was a child.
I may have now slightly forgotten the plots, turns and twists in the story. :lol:

Stupid weasel, if an Eritrean can convince enough people and go after your nightmare (PIA) militarily & succeeds in overthrowing him, all the power to him.

It means, the guy has managed to convince the people about the "misdeeds/crimes" of the pfdj & the president in particular AND has managed to convince them of his vision for the country & how he intends to achieve it.

There's nobody like that today, hence "Eraero"! :lol:

The so called opposition we've today, are nothing but an appendage of the weyane- which in turn is a mercenary force for the Western world.

PIA and the pfdj, eventhough in the Eritrean society are almost universally respected as freedom fighters & heroes, they at the end of the day came to power through the power of the gun. And unless they freely & willingly relinquish power by diversifying it to others, the only way is revolution. I personally am sure, it will never lead to that because Shaebia- as usual- will always do the right thing at the end.

I know, now that your fellow parasites- the weyane- are more or less eliminated & hopefully peace restored in the HoA, the economy of Eritrea will show great strides. Then & only then, after Eritrea has become a middle income country, will the "democratisation process" begin.

Btw, why are you still reading my posts? :mrgreen:
