Then be patient and you'll see.
Oromos are in the running to be pm but no zoomali is being even considered for the job, lol as usual zoomali just provides Ethiopia with more land that's it...
Fix your statement, Isaaq isn't on the same level as these other useless Zoomali's. Regardless of who rules Ethiopia we will be partners as we collaborate on Berbera Port , regional security, and future Infrastructure development projects. And if you Oromo threaten the status quo all these projects will be cut off from ethiopia, which you guys badly want and need because you are landlocked.
But just to be clear there's a very slim chance oromo will ever come to power in Ethiopia again. Oromo are the working class, they do the jobs nobody else wants to do in Ethiopia.
Oromo's may have big numbers, but like the Ogaden Doofar tribe, you guys are very very weak and absolutely no match for the Western backed Ethiopian military. The status quo will remain the same and oromos will forever be the workers of ethiopia. In Somaliland most house maids are Oromo. Most of our construction workers that do the hard jobs of working below ground with piping and other jobs are Oromo. It's just the way it is, even in Somaliland Oromo are the working class. You can't change your position overnight.
No somali clan is influential in ethiopia. the most influential, if we had to be honest; would be the ogaden.
when the Ogadenis got too powerful, and went as far as marginalizing other clans, the tplf easily exploited it and supported other non ogadeni clans.
oromos may have our issues---but it's too easy to keep somalis divided and killing each other like flies.
just look at mogadishu. ethiopia has been arming 1 clan, against the other, for a very long time now.
the ethiopian army itself, like the other one before it, will collapse, when the people have had enough and rise (in massive numbers) in unison....that's what happened with the derg's army... it had soviet arms, by the billions, and still lost in the end, because they lost the hearts and minds of the populace...
when you underestimate the power of the oppressed, determined, and literally hopeless/fearless, masses; then ONLY YOU will lose in the end...
how else do u think the isaaq beat siad barre? had the isaaq populace decided to stay with siad, or support him; the SNM would've failed.
a significant portion of the SNM's success can be attributed to the support it had form isaaq populace.
and BTW-there's no shame in oromos working hard in YOUR LAND-why can't you do it, then?
and do u think we're some small tiny nation? a few 1000 of us working in other lands=does not represent even a fraction of the oromo nation, the vast majority of which are STILL in their lands.
