"The call of our homeland far outweighs our
differences with the Government of Eritrea."
Empower the youth, the catalyst for change.
Meskerem 3-1-2010: The spokesman of the The International Task Force on Eritrea told meskerem that one of the main objectives of the International Task Force on Eritrea is to bring into the open, in the international arena, the issue of the illegal and unjust sanctions against the Eritrean people and nation. To this end, the Task Force is discussing and negotiation with prominent professors in international law in the US, Canada and Europe, including, the London School of Economics and Political Science, Georgetown University in Washington, DC and Brown University in New York. A highly respected think tank organization in Belgium has also been approached.
The Task Force intends to host a high level international conference this summer with the goal of garnering support for the Eritrean people in their just struggle to challenge and overcome the sanctions. Sponsorship for such a conference is being sought, he said.

A bloody war between Somalia's
al-Shabaab militias and the ineffectual,
U.S.-supported Transitional Federal Government
that is backed by African Union troops could
escalate amid reports of an imminent TFG
offensive. In a new
Council Special Report on Somalia, democracy
and governance expert
Bronwyn Bruton argues that the best way for
the United States to fight terrorism and promote
stability in Somalia is a policy of
"constructive disengagement." Not only is an
approach that focuses on humanitarian aid and
development less costly than the current support
of the TFG, she says, a "Somalia left to itself
is in many respects less threatening than a
Somalia that is being buffeted by the winds of
international ambitions to control the country."
You argue in the report that, in many
ways, outside intervention, rather than its
failed state status, is what has contributed to
the rise of Islamic radicals in Somalia.
