For those who actually read @BronwynBruton and think she is an objective think tank analyst, she has long made the jump to the #Eritrea|n Mafia Regime side. Here she sits with an attorney for Nevsun Enterprises at an event organized by Isaias Youth (YPFDJ) group.

2. Why spend time discussing the history of @BronwynBruton? Because, in war time, truth is one of the first casualties. It’s hard to separate information, misinformation and disinformation. And since @BronwynBruton is a public figure, it’s fair to address her record.
3. @BronwynBruton elevation to instant #Eritrea-expert commenced after she visited the country and (as she mentioned 17 times) was granted an interview with Isaias Afwerki and his sidekicks. Count how many verifiable laughable propaganda pieces she shares here.
4. In this interview, she said Isaias is about to draft a new constitution (5+ yrs and counting and he hasn't), "quietly released prisoners" (no mention he quietly imprisons many more) & claimed that #Eritrea is really working (on the list of the worst of the worst on everything)
5. In 2016, when the mafia regime was, due to the massive documentation of crimes against humanity in #Eritrea, was on the verge of being referred to The Hague for crimes against humanity, she penned this:
6. In this strange argument, she was saying that not only has the Commission of Inquiry made its case that crimes against humanity were committed in #Eritrea, but they probably didn't document even more damning testimonies.
7. Fast forward to September 2016 when she was testifying in front of Congress as an #Eritrea expert, name forwarded by the @Stesfamariam|s of the country where she made an astonishing claim: (Start 1:32:57 and ends at 1:34:06)
8. For those of you who don't have the time, nor the endurance, to listen to her main point, it's been helpfully summarized for you here:
9. That is: it is important that #Eritrea|s Chief Predator (Isaias Afwerki) must stay in power because he is the only one holding the country together because the military can't be trusted. This is a clever way of terrorizing the US into sticking with a tyrant because: chaos!
10. And the lawyer she is sitting with who represents Nevsun Enterprises? His company was accused by #Eritrea|ns in Canada of using enslaved labor and the Canadian supreme court can proceed forward. They settled out of court.
11. Finally, I plead w/my fellow #Eritrea|ns to stick to what is provable. We cannot prove she is getting paid for her services: she may be providing her services "on the house." What matters is via selective memory & being gullible she has chosen to be an apologist for tyranny
12. Finally, if you think it is helpful and have the time to read it, here's my take on her @awate2 http://awate.com/its-late-but-not-that-late-for-bronwyn-bruton/
13. Psych! I am not done. Just began. When Isaias, in 2016, said “demarcation is top priority, precondition to positive change!” @BronwynBruton said the same. When Isaias, in 2018, said, no, #Ethiopia stabilization is #Eritrea|s top priority, she said.... the same.

15. Please go back and read parts 5, 6, 8. I will wait.
Now read this shit sandwich: massive human rights violation but are they systematic? PLEASE DON'T REFER ISAIAS AFWERKI TO ICC. POLITICAL VACUUM. Yeah, sure, there are even more anecdotes of human rights violations.

16. I think this mock outrage is supposed to stop the thread
. It’s @EJe11 dude I called a whore with PFDJ pimp. All “commercial sex workers” think everybody has a pimp. Wrong: TPLF can come and go: I am the same. Cant say same about Isaias worshippers, foreign and domestic.
