ONLF did no damage bro. The potential was there, for them to be strong, but then clan-divisions reared its ugly head and weakened the Somali struggle. The TPLF just found a willing puppet named abdi iley and made the liyyu and boom...now they can spread their soldiers to other regions and let somalis kill somalis....
the government, during the protests, were actually pushed out of a lot of oromia. you should study this more before discussing it, no offense bro. but many govt structures were destroyed and the local tplf cadres were chased out. this is why the declared the emergency, it was literally the biggest challenge to their power.
and our goal is almost done. as we speak, the gold and mineral resources are in oromo hands. the opdo is standing up to tplf, goal #2. slowly but surely, you'll see more and more of this.
The Ogaden region has had several presidents, why haven't they fought against the ONLF like Abdi Iley did? surely they had the governments backing and ofcourse police or army force to fight against them.
I guess you have no idea on what and how the Ogaden region was before Abdi Iley, do a little research then come back and give your opinions regarding my region.
ONLF did more damage to the Ethiopian regime than OLF, and it still effects them today as we speak, unlike your regions my lands are not given away for free to chinese and indians, They and the government of ethiopia are too scared to come further down than jigjiga.
Your goal is not done until TPLF is toppled out of the seat.
The state is in emergency meaning the government can do whatever they want across the country, They are killing amhara and oromo who made the unrest during the demonstrations.
Again, your 50 million of the ethiopian population and still haven't received your goal, Eritrea managed to get their independence with only 4-5 million in population, how come you haven't received yours?
You're people are divided through politics, ideology and religion... that's the oromos to blame for.
They had several presidents, yes, because they tried to PUSH FOR SECESSION AROUND 1994 WHEN ONLF won elections there, so EPRDF came and SAID NOPE, and sent the federal army in.
the ESDP was created by NON OGADEN SOMALI CLANS who REFUSED to be in a group NAMED and BASED around ONE clan, when there's OVER 12 SOMALI CLANS/GROUPS IN ETHIOPIA.
ONLF had the potential to do damage, but never did, and today, it's dead. non-existent. tell me what recent attacks they have done, what land they hold, with proof, and how many soldiers they killed?
your land couldn't even be given away to chinese and indians, there's little to nothing there, but livestock and a little water.
who wouldn't want green and rich and water-ful oromia? it's like asking: do you want a steak for dinner or ramen noodles?
they are killing, they have always been killing, so it's not new, but this time, they lost billions in funds, and were severely weakened.
to this day, they are only present in urban areas, the rural areas of oromia and amhara are not in TPLF control. literally.
eritrea had millions in support from iraq, saudi, egypt and syria AND they have the historical references to prove they were once not part of ethiopia AND well-defined/established BORDERS...the oromos and even the somalis of ethiopia don't have any of these to support them...
your people are worse. one religion, one language, and still your worst enemy.
our diversity can weaken us, obviously, but what's your excuse?
