Ogaden?

[Gaashaanle_87]

what good are they? this qabiil to live or to die - death is better for them in this modern day under the harsh rule of melez - have they got rights? why do they get treated badly by all the 3 sides , Ethiopia , Kenya , Somalia -puntland ? are they reduced to seeking refuuge camps in the hot humid deserts of puntland? or perhap the over crowding refuuge camps of ethiopia? or running around 120 years of occupation from Menelik 2 to the present day 2009 Melez Zenawi - is there a light in the tunnel? or is it never ending saga - the Oromo revolution seems to be more realistic then the chants of we will be free from Ogadens.

Qabiilkan nolosha ha isku duugo, xuquuq malaha, mustaqbal malaha, rajo malaha!
120 ayaad cagta hoosteeda ku jirteen wakhtigan maanta lajoogona dhulkaa dhan ee ilaahay idinku manaystay gypsie baad ka taagan tihiin
noloshaadii waa baaba xataa oromada ayaa ku dhaanta oo fursad kaa wanaagsan haysata.

“And most certainly we should try you by means of fear, hunger, and loss of worldly goods, of life or of labor’s fruit. But give glad tiding unto those who are patient in adversity, who when the calamity befalls them, say, ‘Verily unto God we belong and verily unto him we shall return’ (2:155-156).”

“When harm touches the human being, he calls upon Us. Then, when we confer on him a blessing, he says, ‘I was given it only because of a knowledge.’ No, it is a trial, but most of them know not (39:49).”



We are here for a short time and we are being tested. Those who will pass this test will find an eternal world that is perfect and permanent.

The Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) strongly condemns the forced abduction, detention and extraordinary rendition of two ONLF Central Committee members by the Puntland regional administration in Somalia on 22nd of April 2008.

This act constitutes a clear violation of the United Nations Convention Against Torture and other Forms of Cruel, Inhumane, or Degrading Treatment as the two officials have a clear and well founded fear of persecution including torture in Ethiopia.

The two ONLF political prisoners were removed by force from their hotel in Garowe in central Somalia by security forces of the Puntland administration.

After intense interrogation, they were then driven in the personal vehicle of the Puntland Minister of Finance Mohamed Ali Yusuf "Ga Gaab" to Ethiopian security forces waiting for them on the Ogaden side of the border with Somalia.

One of the ONLF officials was in Puntland to protest the deliberate killing of a citizen of Ogaden by Puntland security forces in a jail in the northern city of Bosaaso and to assist his family members. He was in regular contact with Puntland officials who never objected to his presence. The other ONLF official was in Puntland visiting his spouse and children. Both were unarmed political figures and posed no threat to the security of Puntland.

The ONLF considers this act to constitute a clear hostile intent on the part of the Puntland regional administration toward the people of Ogaden.

The consequences of this action shall be the sole responsibility of the Puntland regional administration.
