Eritrea warns of renewed war with Ethiopia

EFL: UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) -- Eritrea warned the United Nations on Wednesday that it might rekindle its border war with Ethiopia if the world body failed to resolve a lingering territorial dispute between the two neighbors.
"I wish to categorically inform the assembly that Eritrea is determined, and has the right, to defend and preserve its territorial integrity by any means possible," Berhane Abrehe, Eritrea's finance minister, told the 191-nation U.N. General Assembly. "If the United Nations fails to reverse the occupation, it will be as equally responsible as Ethiopia is for any renewed armed conflict and its consequences," he said.

Oh, just go ahead and kill yourselves over a worthless patch of dirt. I really don't care any more.

#3 For the most part the smart Eritreans got out years ago. Like the Palestinians, the ones that like to fight stayed behind. No pity from me, much as I would like to.
