ONLF REBELLION

[DANGIRL]

Darood Asbame made it possible for the struggle of Somalis in Ethiopia as early as the 40's.So,dont you come here with that nonesense claiming Harti did anything for the cause.As for WSLF,they lost touch with the majority of somalis in Ogadenia.

40s? dream baby.

Ever heard of Greater Somalia and who championed that policy? Ogaaden woke up just 1984.

Sooner or later that government would have been gone.Arent all government like that?? Anyway,no one told Said Barre to go and recapture Ogadenia.He did that for his own personal interest.

Greater Somalia was a policy to unite all Somali territories . Majeerteen founded and felled it. We realized it is not in our best interest to support this policy and in 1978, after a foiled coup, we formed our own Organization SSDF that fights for our rights and economic interest. Dir and Hawiye followed suit and formed formal alliances with Ethiopia. Then, WSLF lost its support base in Somalia, then, some old members of WSLF mostly Ogaaadeen established ONLF in 1984. Truly, Ogaadees stepped up to the political challenge with the blessing of Siyaad bare who recruited them as his army, enlisted them as his officers, colenels and generals, sent them to prestigious colleges in overseas, and many more favorite positions. Bare, even, recruited Ogaden officers in the army of Kenya by granting them citizens.

That is how foolish you people are? What interest would Bare got from liberating Ogadenia if not for a national cause and love of his poeple.

What Cut

[DANGIRL]

There was no Somali leader who showed more in favor of the Ogaden rights than Siad Barre(RIP),but the aim was not to liberate Ogadenia but rather the war was about the security of Somalia.If he truely cared for his fellow somalis( remember he was born and raised in ogadenia) he would have never have sat down with the ethiopians and sign a treaty.

[Gladiator=]

He signed the treaty because of SSDF and SNM because of the possiblity that they would open multiple war fronts for the Somali National Army. To call a spade a spade, Bare saw signs of betryal and seditious acts that forced him to fight and massacre innocent people, his own poeple. He did it as a compromise to eliminate the new domestic rebels.

They supported Siyad Barre , he fell and chaos followed, they now support Meles he's gonna fall and a bloodshed will come next.
I'm a 100% behind the ONLF { so long as they don't burn our trucks of course }[/quote]

lol wallahi wad iga qoslisisay. You're somalidi la afgaranjiray even if we disagree

For the rest, whatever is the name doesn't matter. Ogaden name is undernational recognized name and we want to keep it untill we get our independance. WSLF did not work and wont work because the world would see it as border issue between two beighbours. No one would care about it as all Africa have unsolved boarder issues. We want to fight as a people who lives that region who want their independant, whatever we unite with somalia or not is depends on us.


VIVA ONLF
