I see that you want to take me to endless yes..no...yes no... child game. Let me just add one point and end this conversation. For most diaspora Ethiopians there is no one who can speak about EPPF with authority than Elias. Weather an obscure figure from Eritrea denies or confirms it can not replace the perception Ethiopians have for few years now.
I do not like when website owner pretend to be the defacto spokes men for Ethiopians in general. They are not. If you want to gauge the true filling of Ethiopians you can read the discussion forums on any Ethiopian web sites or go to Ethiopian paltalk rooms. It may not be the most scientific aproach but it is the closest one can come to Ethiopians opinion polls. On this forums Elias have a great deal of influence to sway ordinary diaspora Ethiopians than any one who claims to speak for EPPF. In diaspora Elias is EPPF even though he has not claimed yet. And it is beyond shabias reach.

I totally understand you. EPLF feels comfortable only when Ethiopians are under it's firm control or TPLF's, and I have no doubt TPLF feels the same way. Ethiopians who think and act freely out side of this are threat to....
Unfortunately there are Ethiopians who help you by ostracizing and pushing Ethiopians to this designated zones like a ship is coerced in to a fence. The enemies are TPLF and shabia, No Ethiopian could willingly betray other Ethiopian and sell out to this organizations. No amount of money can do that. But other irresponsible Ethiopians can push some one to take shelter under TPLF or Shabia and that is what sustained this vulture organizations.
I have seen and spoken to many so called EPRDF members in side and out side of the country. It is a miracle that TPLF managed to stay this far. Almost every none Tigrean member who is registered to serve TPLF (except the criminals and mentally ill charactors ) are only buying their time and waiting for some one to take the initiative to bury TPLF. And Meles Zenawi would never know what hit him. That is why the opposition in the country however week it is must be supported to prepare itself (if possible in the open if not clandestinely) for the eventual fall of Meles Zenawi. That is why an attack against Ethiopians by other Ethiopian individuals or groups must stop.
That does not mean the armed struggle should stop. It must continue by all means but it should also not present as a sacrificial lamb precious patriots to blood thirsty shabia criminals.
