@mrubin1971 @TheNatlInterest @AEIfdp 1. Problem with the likes of Mike Rubin is b/c people ignore their nonsense they think they are right. He writes “At one time, he [Isaias] also considered attacking #Somaliland in order to gain a port on the Red Sea.” He gets an F in geography. Somaliland is not on the Red Sea.

@mrubin1971 @TheNatlInterest @AEIfdp 2. Rubin writes “Isaias cares nothing about the #Eritrean people.” It’s outrageous. Mike Rubin a hired lobbyist is telling us he cares about #Eritrea more than the incorruptible, selfless servant leader, who gave more 3/4 of his life for his people and country!

@mrubin1971 @TheNatlInterest @AEIfdp 3. Rubin “Isaias’ rule depends in part on his ability to cut Eritreans off from the outside world.” WRONG! #Eritreans have more access to information than Rubin and his neocon friends allow Americans to have.

@mrubin1971 @TheNatlInterest @AEIfdp 4. Rubin says #Eritrea “recognizes only 4 religions—Sunni Islamism, Orthodox Christianity, Roman Catholicism, & evangelical Lutheranism.” What he doesn’t tell is that this is nearly 99% of #Eritreans. Since his mission is disinformation this distinction doesn’t matter to him.

@mrubin1971 @TheNatlInterest @AEIfdp 5. “#Eritrean envoys insist on acting as Mafiosi rather than diplomats, it is time to close the #Eritrean embassy.” He has no evidence, It’s Rubin who is acting a “Mafia”, he’s the 1 threatening & intimidating Americans of #Eritrean origin by abusing US power. Shows his bigotry.
