	IMF / World Bank - NI 365 - Worldbeaters: Isaias Afwerki
		Afwerki was born in 1945 into a large family in what is now known as Eritrea.
		Afwerki, who had put aside his former Marxist ideology for moderate pragmatism, became head of a provisional government and in 1993 was named President.
		Afwerki, who once took pride in being a humble comrade among his people, has shed his casual attire for fancy suits and is developing a taste for autocracy.

	Will Isaias pull the trigger?
		Isaias was allowed to walk free from facing war crimes charges that are well-documented but left to gather dust in the shelves of the Claims Commission in The Hague.
		Isaias, who prior to the war had invited Egyptian and other Arab military attaches to visit his "impenetrable" trenches that some admiring reporters drew parallels with European subways, but were torn to pieces in a few days of fighting with Ethiopia, suffers from the idea of being defeated.
		Isaias may hesitatingly admit he can't win a war as a leader of a demoralized army, and a devastated economy, but again, a desperate man knows no bounds, and may try to spark border skirmishes, just if that may win him some diplomatic sympathy, and the much-needed money from "seminar-soaked" Eritreans in the diaspora.

		Isaias Afewerki (born 2 February, 1945) is the first president of Eritrea.
		He became active in the (ELF) in 1966, and then became secretary general in 1987 of the Eritrean People's Liberation Front (EPLF), an offshoot of the ELF.
		Many international observers believe that Isaias is turning into a dictator; his country has banned all private media, imprisons more journalists than any other nation in the world and has not held any elections since independence (Eritrea is a one-party state).

		On Sept. 18, 2001, Afwerki, after eight years in power, alleged that he was fighting terrorism as well as subversion when he suddenly jailed many of his closest comrades along with journalists, students and other critics of his increasingly dictatorial government.
		Afwerki is the recognized father of Eritrea; he led a 31-year guerrilla movement against first a U.S.- and then Soviet-backed Ethiopian regime.
		Two years after guerrillas liberated Eritrea, "Isaias," as he is known, was elected by guerrilla fighters to serve as president with the explicit agreement that his government would soon establish a constitution and hold elections.

		Isaias was a member of one of the more influencial Eritrean families during the rule of Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia.
		Isaias Afewerki is recognized as the architect of the strategy that eventually allowed the EPLF to surpass and eliminate the ELF as the foremost liberation movement of Eritrea, while at the same time increasing the effectiveness of his group against the forces of Emperor Haile Selassie's and then the Derg regimes of Ethiopia.
		Isaias was heavily criticized by many of his cabinet of ministers and party members (the G-15) for the way he handled the border conflict with Ethiopia.

	Eritreans worry Isaias may start war with Ethiopia again
		Weary of the last 1998-2000 Eritrea-Ethiopia War that left an estimated 90,000 soldiers dead on both sides, Eritreans have continued to air their fears that Eritrean leader Isaias Afwerki may once again spark a bloody conflict with neighboring Ethiopia under the usual cover of "Ethiopia has invaded us; it is our right to exercise self-defense."
		Eritrea's national radio - Dimtsee Hafash of the ruling Isaias Afewerki regime - is explicitly embroiled in intense propaganda warfare that it gives the impression Eritrea is in the thick of war with Ethiopia.
		Whether Isaias has forgotten how much pain he has brought to his own people, and would try another armed conflict with Ethiopia is to be seen in the future.

	The PFDJ's Futile (?) Courting of the USA
		The problem with President Isaias Afwerki’s offer is that it is at least three decades too late: it is now a uni-polar world and the United States has plenty of choices, which makes the hold-your-nose-and-do-it option, the Isaias option, far less attractive.
		Isaias Afwerki falsely accused George Tenet’s CIA and Anthony Lake of trying to overthrow him.
		But one cannot exclude the obvious: the United States may have rejected Isaias Afwerki because it sees him precisely the same way the Eritrean people do: a man who showed promise once but is now a relic and a buffoon, an unstable person with unpredictable mood swings.

	Article72
		The jingoist policy of occupy first, negotiate later followed by Isaias Afwerki to deal with international territorial claims, has been a destabilizing factor for regional security in the Horn of Africa.
		Having sealed-off dignified withdrawal as a viable exit, Isaias is left with one option: escalating the invasion to a full blown war, as a way out of the self-inflicted quandary.
		In sum, by invading of Ethiopia and unwilling to undo his blunder, Isaias Afwerki has literally caged himself in an impossible situation Withdrawal would mean that a major reason for invading Ethiopia, i.e., diverting the attention of the Eritrean people off the structural and economic crises embattling Eritrea, would be lost.

		Though still alien to the muzzled Eritrean society, the proliferation of newspapers and political parties and the concomitant diversity of views in fledgling democratic Ethiopia were mistaken by Isaias for a weak nation whose disintegration was at his finger-tip.
		The media carried the warnings of Isaias Afwerki far and wide, and the Eritrean fuhrer felt he was inches away from fulfilling his grand illusion of standing on the war debris of all conquered East African neighbors.
		Eritrea's defeat at Badme became the first question that haunted Isaias wherever he went, be it in Europe or in North American cities he "toured" in search of funds into his war-drained coffers.
