Mountain laments the lameness of the UN Commission of Inquiry lies against Eritrea and adds that none of the three commissioners has ever been to Eritrea and two called for "regime change" before the Inquiry began. How are these imperialist off the ground puppets qualified to determine human rights violations in Eritrea and demand regime change?
Mountain asserts that it is all a campaign to vilify a country and damage the economy, and he documents others -- including Noam Chomsky, BBC and a respected Canadian HR investigator who went to Eritrea twice and carried out very thorough investigations -- who came to conclusions opposite the UN Commissioners re human rights violations in Eritrea.
Mountain stresses that the youth are leaving Eritrea due to severe historic droughts causing crop failures and the UN Security Council Sanctions (2009) sabotaging the Eritrean economy, especially in the mining industry. Like youth in other countries, the Eritrean youth are driven out of their country by poverty and lack of jobs--not by a political structure and People fighting for independence from imperialism.
