Recent developments showed that OPDO is planning to raise the question of Liberation for Oromia. As usual Woyane is moving on the uncalculated moves to maintain its power. Ethiopian nationalities and tribes have lived for thousands of years on consciences and tolerance rather than the benevolence of one over the other. EPRDF is acting like these different nationalities have been living with the good will of Meles Zenawi and if he is not there everything will be upside down. But after 14 years, they found out that All Ethiopian nationalities prefer to live together without Woyane.

Hence they are planning to Ignite a fire upon the unity in diversity so that they can benefit in the divide and rule system. If OPDO really cares about Oromia, Where has it been for the past 14 years? They were the ones to increase the grief of the society in collaboration with Woyane. I think this arises from their Excessive love affair with power. How do you describe this fact? And don’t you think that the fact that majority’s political wisdom exceeding Woyane’s Officials?

oromo liberation will be like Tigrae liberation. the Tigrae People liberation Front used the name of tigrians to get to power and now look what is happening. It is the same with shabia. eritrea live under slavery. oromo will not be free because zenawi has said so.
Are you telling us that oromo will be different. Real liberation comes from the people.

You have got the point. Real liberation question comes from the society not from one upper party. Those OPDO officials are upto power not real freedom. Afterall if they(EPRDF) were not there, Not only oromia, but also every ethiopian would be better off.

all this problem come becuose of haileslasse,he shoud have left eritrea federated with ethiopia so eritreans would be happy to manage the eritrean affair and ethiopia in charge of international affair. both would have been happy. the king decided to anx eritrea, eritreans said no they went to the mountain to fight in the proccess they infected tgray and oromia .the present minorty regime in ethiopia is not able to manege ethiopia and the oromo problem need careful handling but not with the minority ragime of wayane thiopia is in the crossroad.

Dear Mehari,

U have made a critical comment and definitly is the most logical insight to the question of Liberation. If u are willing i want to add some compliment. Whether there were the Eritirian question or not, every society suffering from the existing syatem would raise the human right question. Hence people with a common interest as well as culture may find liberation as the best way to alliviate their problem. A society whose demands are well met would never ask such a question. But if some are benefiting from the existing system and others suffering; the plundered ones would look for any way of freedom. Dont u think so?

dear tigu I AGREE TOTALLY WITH WHAT U SAID,A SOCIETY WHOSE DEMAND WELL MET WOULD NEVER ASK SUCH A QUESTION.NOW IN ETHIOPIA, THE AMHARA AND TGRAY THEY R TALKING ABOUT WEATHER THERE WAS FAIR AND FREE ELECTION.I AM SURE THIS ELECTION WERE NOT DONE FOR THE ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE,IT WAS DONE FOR DONNER COUTRY FOR TPLF TO GET MORE MONEY THEY R SO GREEDY AND IT BACKFIRED ON THEM GOOD.BUT I AM AFRAID THEY WILL BE BACK BY THE BACK DOOR AND ALL THE ETHIOPIAN PROBLEMS WILL BE THER,THE SOLUTION IS TO ENVITE ALL THE OPPOSITIONS OLF,ONLF,THE SIDDAMA FIGHTERS CDU AND OTHERS PLUS THE TPLF GAVERNMENT TO SIT ON EQUAL FOOTING AND SORT OUT THE INEQULITY OTHERWISE ETHIOPIAN NATIONALITY WILL GO THE ERITREAN WAY THAT IS THE ONLY WAY OR TPLF GIVE THE POWER TO THE REAL PEOPLE.NOT CDU

Mehari,
you are very insightfull. I apreciate such balanced and well diversified look. Hope some ppl will learn that eritreans didn't start strugel for no reason. It was simply because their dignity was stamped by haileselassie and his cronies. To begin with eritrea, right after when the british left, should have been either free nation or united with ethiopia upon the willingness of the people not by force. Now that the eritreans took their fate of destination by power, the weyanes and their friends are working hard to undo that. The result? more agony not only for eritreans but also for the ethiopians. If weyane continues to go the same path, you can rest be assured that the rest of ethiopian ethnics will follow the eritrean suit and we will have no nation to call ethiopia. Hope we can remove weyane and burry them along with their breeds of chauvenistic mentality. By the way I hear all the time that CUD also favors even bigger war with eritrea. I hope it is not true but if that is what they want well let's expect even more bloodshed under this upcoming group too.
God help us to come back to a common sense and respect each other.

"Ethiopian nationalities and tribes have lived for thousands of years on consciences and tolerance rather than the benevolence of one over the other."

Oh plzzz! Minilik colonized the Oromos and the southern people just over a century ago....u don't have to make up history just to fit your agenda. Thats what the freaks at OLF do all the time. They turn history up side down, inside out to fit their agenda. There is a lot of room to make an arguement within the existing history.

Mehari,

Plz make a correction on where you said how all parties including OLF should come in on equal footing....well, they might be on equal footing with woyane because they both were once terrorists, but they should not sit on an equal footing with the many parties in Ethiopia that are sacrificing a lot to struggle in peace. Allowing OLF to Ethiopia while they are armed will not be fair to those who have paid a price to struggle peacefully. Plus, for all we know, OLF doesn't represent Oromos, they never voted for them. For us to know that, they should respect not only the law of the country but also accept what is right and disarm and struggle peacefully and pay for it if they have to. 'Hulet wedo ayhonim'. Who the heck is OLF?! Who designated them to "Liberate" the Oromo people?! Just because they claim to be "Oromo" Liberation Front, it doesn't mean they should be given a special previledge. Let them show us the vote! There aignt gonna be no handing over of power for free just coz one claims to be of the "majority" baby! Gotta work for it!

Woyane will do anything to stay in power. Trust me, they will soon instruct their OPDO puppets to start discussion on independence and intimidate the public and the opposition. The move to transfer Oromia's capital to Finfine was ment for that. Surprisingly, the public reacted differntly. So what? Infact the move benefits the city.

Article 39 on the constitution that has been melaciously incorporated by Melese and his gangs was ment from the start to serve such consipiracy that the groups will use it when its crime is exposed and rejected by the people. In my opinion there has been and are still some distructive individuals whose mare intent is to amass a personal benefit at the expense of the peoples severage and welfare. The only way to check on such ravaging individuals is unity and rath by the people.

Woyanewoch are the evil minded individuals ethiopia has ever had. just watch their ultimate goal is to destroy ethiopia by using the ethnicity card. they are moving oromia capital to Finfine, then what? declare independece of oromia and tigray?
THis evil magid man meles is telling us with me or hell(division). we need to get rid off him before he do his evil intentions and then it would be too late to fix.
oh man God save us. Amen.

wayyane are evil people.first they went to war with eritrea over badme just to prove to the amhara that the wayyane are ultra nationalist that did not work. in fact their plan was to change the ERITREAN governmemt and replace it with puppet government so mekelle to be incharge over finfine and asmara massawa and assab and keep the amhara happy but their dream disappeared they did not even get badme. so they do not have eritrean card to play with.now the only card they have is oromia card to give finfine to the oromo because they r in trouble the wayyane r not going away, the time they lose every thing they will declare independence. oromia and ogaden will follow.
