LONDON hip-hop duo Surrender have partnered with Release International on a new single, "My Refuge", intended to bring attention to the imprisonment and torture of Christians in Eritrea. Said singer K.I.D., "When I first heard about the situation in Eritrea it was a shock and a serious wake up call about how real Christ and persecution are." "My Refuge", described as both moving and inspirational, can be downloaded from www.releaseinternational.org for a suggested donation of £3.00. CR

This is clearly another CIA website, being used to beat down a strong-minded, anti neo-colonialistic African government.

The sickist thing of all is that you sheep like christians are singing songs in solidarity with phantom christians. That's right sorry to burst your hyper-inflated, self righteous, crusading bubble but there really are not christians suffering in Eritrea so go find yourselves a new niche pseudo 'africans in need' project and leave the hard working people of eritrea alone.
