  One article shamelessly declared that you're "Isias's new lipstick;" another dubbed you as a 'useful idiot' of the Eritrean government. Meanwhile, Mr. Younis and his two partners at awate dot com have further sharpened their knives, spending countless hours at the keyboard targeting you personally, using various pseudonyms to spread similar lies. Five months ago they characterized you as "wrong" and "uninformed," today you are "undercover lobbyist." Warning: Younis and Co. are decorated online warriors who really understand the power of narrative. These men mean business, and their backyard is full of dead bodies and unwilling prisoners. The secret to their success is, of course, very simple -- no lie is too small to repeat often, until it builds up significant digital footprints to confuse the unassuming.
