The promise of democracy is life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Democracy is then both promise and challenges. To fulfill these promises and challenges people should communicate among each other another about their common problems to achieve one common objective.  For upliftment and sustainability of any democracy, the fundamental base is the unity of citizen among themselves.

According Robert H. (2004), the strength of a people’s movement requires the active participation of the people. And oppressed people are attracted to movements for change when they perceive these movements reflecting the aspirations of the people and when they view the leadership as being capable of guiding the movement to victory.  We are living in a time when the call for freedom and democracy echoes across the globe. At this era Eritrean citizens especially young generations need to raise their voice for democracy from all over the world to make difference. However, due to lack of unity among citizens, residing in side and out side the country, every one becomes directly or indirectly vulnerable for a massive physical and psychological torture of the dictator regime.

Nowadays, every citizen has lost the God given inalienable natural right. Inalienable rights include freedom of speech and expression, freedom of religion and conscience, freedom of assembly and the right to equal protection before law. It is important to ask why this basic rights are missing in Eritrea, just due to lack of unity among the citizens. Disunity among coalition members within a democratic movement can result in a loss of trust and confidence in the movement’s ability to achieve political reform. This loss of trust then contributes to atomization of society, which in turn, promotes a sense of hopelessness and defeatism. Authoritarian regimes promote the atomization of society by replacing or penetrating organizations exiting outside the control of the government. These organizations would consume portions of individual’s time and loyalty (Robert, 2004).  Disunity among Eritrean citizens makes difficult to achieve a common objectives or solve critical issues. Due to lack of unity, it becomes a common occurrence among Eritrean citizens to abstain from taking responsibility or cooperating with organizations for political change. Furthermore, the dictatorial regime knows value of unity through out his army struggle. As a result, is working hardly to create fear among the citizens to promote disunity. This day, it is natural to see a continuous massive torture and arresting of innocent people. The most frustrating thing at this situation is the silence of brothers, sisters and friends who are residing outside the hostage.

We must meet hate with love. We must meet physical force with soul force. There is still a voice crying out through the vista of time, saying: Love your enemies; bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you. Then, and only then, you can matriculate into the University of Eternal Life. That same voice cries out in terms lifted to cosmic proportions: He who lives by the sword will perish by the sword. And history is replete with the bleached bones of nations that failed to follow this command. We must follow nonviolence and love (Martin, 1957).
