19	Anonymous	Mercy is also a popular children's game of strength. Two opponents face each other and grab their opponents hand. Opponent #1 right hand to opponent #2 left hand, opponent #1 left hand to opponent #2 right hand, interlocking fingers. On the word "go", each opponent attempts to bend their opponents hands back, inflicting pain on their opponent as the ligaments and tendons stretch in the wrist. When the opponent can no longer stand the pain, or reverse the situation by overpowering his opponent and bending back their wrists, he cries out "mercy" and is then defeated. The opponents then disengage hands and match is completed. Cheating involves any other activity during the match that inflicts pain, distraction or discomfort on the opponent. Additional sportsmanship etiquette includes the prompt release of the hand grip after the opponent is defeated. In certain districts of England this game is also known as peanuts, although Mercy is the traditional name. Note: This page may contain IPA phonetic symbols in Unicode.

30	Anonymous	it is high time for EPRDF to reconcile with itself and stop blackmailing members over political views; Tegadalay Tamirat was sent to prison for raising the 'Eritrean Question',the right question,in my opinion at the wrong time.

41	Mike Kasahun	I am asking you like everyone else in Ethiopia Mr. President to Pardon this man Ethiopian hero Mr. Tamrat layne during the millennium and forgive him of his crime. If you can pardon CUD who killed people and destroy properties I am sure there is room for you to convince the prime Minster for Mr. Tamrat’s release. Its shame when great warriors languished in jail ceils after the memorable scarifies. This warrior deserves better treatment for our government for his priceless scarifies. Mr. President Time has called up in to be our roll model by leading us to forgive and forget about the pass and work as unity for the future. Your argent care of this mater is great appreciated by all Ethiopians in Diaspora. Happy Millennium to Ethiopia/Ethiopians! Mike Kasahun Oregon, U.S.A.
42	Blen and Tigist Tamrat Layne	we thank you samuel Gebru for the effort you have put in to help our father.we miss him a lot and we need him in our lives.we are hoping and praying that he gets free and comes to us.
43	Anonymous	I am for his release. I believe that those who give pardon are always magnanimous. One thing he has to draw lesson is that he should not follow the foot steps of Siye and his Franchise of bullies and theifs. He may re-join EPRDF as an ordinary member and contribute for his country.

50	Ghirma W.G.	If ex-DERG operatives like Eng. Haile Shawel can be pardoned, why not Ethiopian liberators such as Tamirat Layne not accorded the same courtesy? P.M. Meles, please pardon Tamirat Layne NOW! Tamirat Layne has already served ten years in prison. Enough is enough. Thank you, Engineer Ghirma W.G.
