Keep trying to play this game of scemantics., when you have no chess pieces to play. The fact that you think or feel that you have any say and what they do is what makes it all so dissappointing. THe minute you decide to think for yourself, there will be regime change buddy. You are almost bordering on the line of being very aloof or extremely naive. The day this *Security" partnership you have is over those people your "securing" will come for pay back and you will turn to the US and they will say its your problem. You say some decent things sometimes then you show this side of you that is very foolish to say the least. I guess this is why an Eritrean can never truly talk to you guys man to man.

In fact they are acting as dictators themselves when they order, "So and so must go!" Imposing death and destruction on millions of people who have not elected them, cannot recall them, cannot hold them accountable! Their relations with countries such as Saudi Arabia says a lot about the human rights they claim to stand for. That country routinely practices decapitation and violates human rights in other ways. You won't hear about that! As our friend ERTY tells us that such behaviors are a matter of "interest," we should just live with it even when we are victims (until they turn their cold shoulders to us).Gashanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774364245587719244.post-4297197058700820842015-06-25T00:57:17.045-07:002015-06-25T00:57:17.045-07:00let me reiterate what I said in a simple language...let me reiterate what I said in a simple language that you understand. You seem a little bit confused. Understanding your position in diplomatic relationship is the key. If USA does not have any interest in the region Ethiopia and USA relationship does not exist. USA interest in the region is security which Ethiopia can have a common interest. This is the only reason the relationship is based on. Not economic or military interest . When I say not equal partner this is what I am trying to say. For example UK and USA are allies because they can feed each other in equal label and this relationship will last longer regardless of world politics Ethiopia and USA relationship does not. We are aware of that and the relationship is managed in that fashion. Otherwise what you are saying is gibberish because you did not comprehended concept.Ertynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774364245587719244.post-43087049137049409752015-06-25T00:52:09.807-07:002015-06-25T00:52:09.807-07:00Nice words: "you give some and you take some!...Nice words: "you give some and you take some!" As in "some times you lose, sometimes you gain?" In reality, the degree might vary depending on who you are dealing with, but it is "you give a lot, you get a little; if at all!"<br /><br />"Ethiopia and USA are not equal friends or equal partner. Most of us we know that." Not equal partners in what? Wealth, military power, all kinds of sophistication in modern international relations? Most likely, but why should a powerful, wealthy country dictate how another country should be "behaving"? Why would a wealthy and powerful country force its will on another just because they are less wealthy and less powerful? Why should they force operation of their military forces on sovereign territories of a whole continent far away from their home? Why? There are many more serious questions one could ask. <br /><br />What is wrong with being equal partners? Relationships devoid of equal partnerships have resulted in so much damages that the "more equal" sides themselves have admitted were wrong. And yet, they continue with newer ones. Moreover, why accept the little corner some bully carves out for us? Why belittle oneself or in fact one's country by accepting as deserving lesser than any other country? Remember, we are all human beings deserving no less than another living in a wealthy country somewhere. <br /><br />Furthermore, look at the result of treating countries as equal partners as is practiced between the USA and Russia and practically all other countries. The question eventually comes down to you serve me no matter what the results are on your own interest. For that reason the world is closer to a nuclear war than it was ever was since 1991! We may not hear about it, but everyday brings the two countries are coming closer and closer to confrontation. This in turn has created many areas of tension and confrontation in other areas. Weren't world bodies and international laws created to avoid this and its kind everywhere?<br /><br />"I don't know if USA cares about Africa, but have interest in Africa." <br />Interest is fine! We are talking about legitimate interest here. A country, rather the ruling class of a country, might have your disappearance from the face of the earth. That can be done directly as in a genocide or indirectly through other less obvious methods. Why should "interest" such as this be accepted? This statement of yours contradicts with many of your pronouncements on this very forum. Think about it, you will not miss it.<br /><br />"We can reject their interest and suffer the consequences or we can dance<br /> with them until they give us a cold shoulder that is how politic is."<br /><br />Sounds easy to say it, but it does not have to be so! Have you ever read Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart"? It tells you how an African society of yesteryear fell apart because of the unequal relations the more sophisticated European society came with (among other things) and was colonized. It also tells about how Africans sold other Africans for mirror and some trivial things. <br /><br /><br /><br />This is happening in front of our very eyes, also in more sophisticated ways than ever, but is still discernible today.Gashanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774364245587719244.post-16869950588288470772015-06-25T00:21:21.159-07:002015-06-25T00:21:21.159-07:00You are just looking for a partner in the colony c...You are just looking for a partner in the colony category otherwise your logic is way out.Ertynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774364245587719244.post-11047613741445886422015-06-24T23:32:43.044-07:002015-06-24T23:32:43.044-07:00Actually, it makes difference only for the gullibl...Actually, it makes difference only for the gullible U.S. citizens who think their government is interested in human rights.

I don't think logic saying its master slave relationship is out of the question either, given this simple matter of no equal footing. So when one has and the other doesn't.. what do we call that? Better yet.... what reason could a rich wallstreet banker have to become pals with the homeless man 2blocks down? NOTHING. The problem is instead of working with others who are disenfranchised such as yourselves you lord over them with a false power that is imagined. You claim as Eritrea is the threat etc.. but you have done so much harm to your country by flying this terrorism bullshit that the US has coxed your country into. Look at kenya., that could possibly be ethiopia. This ridiculous demonization of islam and war on terror will ruin ethiopia.

When USA government makes a decision where their leader going to visit or not to visit, USA has the best people in the business to make that assessment to make that choice. We can agree or disagree about their choice based on our political desire but our opinion is not going to matter except to show explicitly where our political stand is. Obama visiting Ethiopia can be viewed by some as an opportunity but by some as inappropriate<br />but in all that USA has geopolitical, social, and economic interest in everything its government does. If that is the case, USA is right in everything its government does. Visiting Ethiopia not visiting Eritrea by Obama can be politics as usual for us but USA make the choice for its own interest.ertynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-774364245587719244.post-39212965164094913242015-06-24T18:36:17.670-07:002015-06-24T18:36:17.670-07:00As usual, you are right on the money.
