Ethiopia is committing genocide in Somali Galbeed as we speak.... what has the dirty Habashi to offer the Somalis other than genocide? to accept colonization is a sad slave mentality and their independence can only give them a better life.

The Somalis in NFD has terrible living conditions it is the region in Kenya with the lowest development and as late as 1984 they killed 5000 Somali men. Daily war crimes are committing against Somalis in NFD and Somali Galbeed. In 1994 99% of the Somalis in Somali Galbeed voted for independence it was rejected.

Question is can Somali Ethiopians free themselves? can they ever unite under a single cause? can they possibly govern themselves if independence is given? I guess the answers are quite obvious!
Do you think the world is ready for another failed state in East Africa with refugee and Alqaida problems?

About the NFD, there are few Somali Kenyans in somalinet like Patriot and others, ask them if they want independence or not? WE cant force them to independence if they themselves don't want it

I never said it was going to be easy to unite and liberate Somali galbeed

NFD Somalis did actually vote yes for their region to leave Kenya in 90% yes vote in a 1960 referendum made by the british only for the british them-self to reject the referendum result and force NFD into Kenya, that region and Somali galbeed is forced by gunpoint not by free will.

individuals and puppets can not speak on behalf of NFD or Somali Galbeed, they have already decided in democratic elections.

Don't waste your time with Somali Ethiopians, they are useless bunch. I will support them if they ever unite but yomal qiyama will come before they unite. 1991 kii bay xoriyadi ugu dhawayd markaasna Ciise, Ogaden iyo Isaaq ayay isku qabsadeen, wax kale iska dhaafe xitaa waxay ku heshiin waayeen meesha ay caasimad ka dhigan lahaayeen. Imika it is too late, I don't think they ever be free from Ethiopia.
Waa runtaa NFD guys initially wanted independence and 85% of them voted yes for independence in 1962 referendum but a lot has changed since then. I don't think they still want independence otherwise they would have continued fighting for it or at least protested for it in the diaspora. Forget about NFD guys demanding independence, through tribal connections, their elites are campaigning for the ONLF to enter a peace agreement with the Ethiopian government and to forget the independence dreams.

Somalis in kenya are better of in kenya kenya is a real economic powerhouse why on earth would u want to separate from that, Ethiopia is a bit different
But somalis in Ethiopia are really divided and also Somali national aspirations and greater Somalia messed up the Ethiopian region Somali to be free. The Somalis in the Somali region never developed a national identity of their own they were always between an Ogaden national aspiration struggle most of the time translated as a clan struggle and the Somaliweyn struggle never a real Somali indigenous home grown national identity. The ciise in Ethiopia feel closer to Djibouti the isaaq and gadabursi in Ethiopia would feel closer to Somaliland the Ogaden would feel closer to Jubbaland or ONLF or DDS. u have no national unity this really is a major obstacle for the region to speak with one voice although i believe ONLF goals are noble yet it has its deep holes. But we can say independence died in the NFD region Somalis are part and parcel of Kenya.
