Eritrea is at a historical juncture. If the present course is not averted, Eritrea can fall into the abyss of failed states. The human tragedy will be more severe than that witnessed in Somalia because ethnic -religious cleavages in Eritrea are much deeper and the abundance of arms and militarization of the society at large is much greater. If Eritrea falls, the fragile neighboring states of the Sudan and Ethiopia would follow because the restive cores of these three countries have deep ties to each other.
