Many of you may have seen the spider that has started crawling here. Some readers say it is creeping them out. Can any one guess why it is here?

    Because Weyane and their stooges are trying to scare people from knowing the truth and ER is an appropriate for such a theatre since ER stands for the truth! Wild guess, but I thought it was worth a try.

    I was discussing with a friend Yesterday,so what we thought was ER searches information from different sites including areas which seems difficult to reach as Spider does.
    That is our geuss.

    Thank you Elias for bringing the crwoling Spider thing public.

    As for me, I just dislked it all the time I visited ER website. I know it is not real but it has been offering me a horrible moment to see the spider everywhere in the page.

    Above all, you should think of what pays from the general public than the not-many spider idols! It does not count for marketing your news as much.

    I do not mind the fun value of having a creeping creature but too mcuh is scary and cause shyaways.

    Do listen also to the grievances that either your pop-ups or for that matter your spider (lol) might have caused computer slowdown. la la la!

  11. Hello !!! says:

    OLLEH,OLLEH M.M.M.H!!!!!!
    SEE THE WEBPAGE ‘aBowman.com’

    I hope it’s a symbol of peacfull struggle. ER must stop it’s agresivness, and must not think only its MONEY. It must start from the Boss (ER’s Boss). Preach Tolerance, Compromise, Respect each other. How do we succed to form a good system or society by a type of ‘MESAFENT ZEMEN’ struggle — the message is for both —- the Regime and Oppositions. To write and collect a billion Dollar AND to go and fight is not the same. You sit in america, europe, and want to decide the game. If you need to interfer to politics,which way of strrugle you follow go to the country. Yes Yes, while the politicians play their games sitting with comfort far far away from the battle field, simple peoples are dying for nothing. Please Don’t forget nowadays that the opposition have the same responce as the government, while you use the big media to lie or…..(mostly making money). Take care we are not at the Derg or eprp time that you take sombody and throw to the fire……..

    I’m sure this black spider with its radio and satellite antennas has been gathering indispensable information from us the commentators and the editors and passing them out to our enemies – Meles Seitanawi’s political parties. It is time to stop its spying business; otherwise, I am going to use a preemptive surprise nuclear attack at this poor creature and at the people who sent it.

    The Spider may portray the Web. The Spider goes around to create more webs. Internet is all about webs. Spiders symbolize the web more than any other creature.

    Elias: That is a black widow spider. It remains hidden and is rarely seen in the open. It’s venom could be deadly, but certainly dangerous. Got to be careful when working around black widows. If you mess with them, you end up in the hospital. Black widow bites are sharp and painful, just like Ethiopian Review’s.

    Yap,

    I guess you guys want to say ” Derre Beyabeer Anbessa Yasserr”. Of course it might have another meaning related to the new name of KINIJIT.

    Any ways let us know what you want to say about that spider.

    Thanks,
