Can anyone take these guys seriously? To me they look like a child who is desperately looking for attention at every opportunity. ONLF please grow up! try to act like a matured organization. At this very time when ethiopian nations and nationalites are trying to mend their tattered relationships it is very sad you are trying to be a pain in the neck. Wake up! if you have any legitimate cause try to put it on the table for a peaceful solution by organising and educating your people. Just because of your presence in the region the ogadenian people couldn't capitalise on the opportunity of development which is widely available in ethiopia now. You are becoming more of a hinderance than a help to the people you claim you are fighting for. An armed struggle is a defunct alternative which can't work at all in the contemporary ethiopia, try to learn from OLF.

@tizita It's sad how little you even know about the situation in Ogadenia or even your so-called Ethiopia.Your ignorance shines through your mis educated comment.Which lacks any sort of intellect. The mighty ONLF doesn't need to justify their strength,they have shown it too many times.And your statement about peaceful solution,I guess you haven't been present in Ethiopia to know what is really going on.You just have this romanticized image of Abyssinia which your biased media shows.Development, does that term even exist in Abyssinia.We don't need to learn anything from OLF,As we fear not death to achieve greatness.Ogadenia will be free,love it or hate it.

WE FEAR NOT DEATH TO BE FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beyan,
If there is somebody to be laughed at, it is none other than you and the laughable incoherent phrases you jotted above.
Recycling the stale statements of your masters, Meles the terrorist and his propaganda right hand poodle Simon Bereket, will not get you anywhere as it didn't bear them any desired fruit. Eversince ONLF began its armed struggle in 1994, TPLF terrorists and their liar mouthpieces have been claiming that they obliterated ONLF forces for good and yet ONLF proved them wrong time and again. Where, then, the likes of you, armchair and internet warriors, stand to be believed. Actions speak lauder and that is what ONLF has been doing to prove itself and prove you wrong.

Tizita,
Yes we do take ONLF seriously and a lot more!.

And if they looked children seeking attention to you, it is because on the one hand you are lucky enough not to have met them in the real battlefield and be at the receiving end of their blazing guns and on the other you lack the capacity of comprehending that waging armed struggle for 16 long years is neither child play nor a way to seek attention. It is being prepared and accepting real death. It is losing your limbs and mental health. It is losing your family and friends. Only a determined, motivated and a fighter of conviction can endure and sustain such a struggle. And those are the characteristics of ONLA and other genuine freedom fighters.
Many, in the past 16 years, who dared or were forced against their will to confront ONLF fighters became part of the usual unsung statistic numbers as some doubters ended up. If only one can resurrect them and let them tell their story.
Tizita, it is you who needs to wake up, mature or wise up. Don't be delusional. You don't seem to be smart enough to fool others. No Ethiopian nations and nationalities are mending their relationship. Ethiopia has no history of settling genuine political problems peacefully and there is no reason to expect it in the future. And please don't make yourself a fool by trying to tell others that there is an ongoing development opportunities in Ethiopia or the Ogaden. Ethiopia is not known for nicety, development and humanity. Instead, it is known as a country that millions of its people are starving at any given time, thousand are languishing in jails, ruthless rulers in power and most recently thousands are happy to sacrifice their lives at any given day trying to cross oceans, deserts and jungles for a better life anywhere but Ethiopia.

Seeking your right and refusing to kneel down before your oppressor has no expiry date. It is never out of fashion. Besides, you can rest assured that advice from the likes of you will not find many receptive ears from the readers of this website and certainly many will not heed it.

Why don't you try to hangout, you may have better luck in the likes of Aiga Forum, Ethiopia First, Walta Info, etc

Yes, your Wayane leader takes these guys seriously; otherwise, he would have allowed the world media to have access to Ogadenia. And, in the outside world the representatives of your Wayane adminstration seem to be acting in panic and hesitation for fear of confronting our gallant people.. It is the maturity of ONLF that led to knocking every door of the Globe, causing these days , Ethiopian delegations entering in the backdoors of the international conferences. At this very moment, when the Wayane administeration is busy with a mock election, ONLF is working on bringing down and the tattering of this century- old evil empire, and the emergence of free nations that will at the end stand side by side as equals and working together in uprooting the seeds of hatred and backwardness associated with the occupation. I am very glad that ONLF is not only "trying to be a pain in the neck" but a tumour - a malignant one, that would eventually witness, and soon, the collapse of this empire. Wake up Wayzaro Tizita! the world is changing and so the old game of Minelik's Abyssinian Christian country "surrounded by muslims and pagans" is outmoded. Nor the Somali irridentism blamed by Haile Sellasie is fashionable. And, the current Meles's fight against an "islamic terrorism" is not marketable. It is recorded and well known to the world powers that ONLF is a secular and nationalist organisastion that erradicated from Ogadenia, the so called Al-shabab - an islamic cult, that is terrorising and tormenting the Somali people in Somalia. It was only a couple of months ago when your Wayane leader called "Stupid" to the American delegation at the UN's Geneva conference on Ethiopias Human Right record in Ogaden. At that converence it was the Americans, the British, the French, among others who demanded for the world to have access to Ogaden. As to putting "on the table for a peaceful solution" I would suggest first apply that assertion to the Abyssinian political opposition leaders, who are vanguishing in Addis Abeba prisons.

BRAVO ONLF & OLF is DEAD. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
written by OLF, March 27, 2010
OLA Registered Consecutive Glaring Victory in Eastern Oromia: Made 145 Invading Woyane Troops Useless.

(OLF News, March 24, 2010) The hope and shield of the Oromo people, the Oromo Liberation Army (OLA) Eastern Command, reported that our gallant OLA freedom fighters have attacked the invading Woyane [Ethiopian] troops, which was dispatched to “put the operation of OLA under control”, and made over 145 enemy combatants out of action in Western Harargee.

The fierce fighting between OLA and the enemy troops occurred when the Woyane [Ethiopian] regime, in an attempt to control the movement of OLA Eastern Command and to protect the so called “election” of the regime, and our gallant fighters successfully defended their positions killing and wounding 145 enemy troops. The massive confrontation occurred between March 10 to 21, 2010 at different locations in Western Harargee zone during which a total of 108 Woyane combatants have been killed and more than 37 have been wounded.

In one of these confrontations between Woyane troops and our freedom fighters which occurred on March 10, 2010 in Western Harargee zone Daaroo Labuu county [woreda] at a place called Sakattee, 52 enemy combatants have been killed and more than 33 others have been wounded.

On other fierce fightings which occurred at different places in the same Western Harargee zone, Baddeessaa county [woreda] at a place called Saaqataa and Bookee county [woreda] at places called Haroo Adii and Araaraa, a total of 56 enemy troops have been killed and many others have been wounded.

It has been reported further that, as has been their habit, the enemy troops, being angered by the action of OLA, are retaliating on the Oromo people by harassing innocent Oromo civilians. Accordingly the regime’s forces intensified detaining innocent civilians and arrested Oromo nationals such as Kenedii Abbuyyee, Ayyalaa Tagany, Yaasin Kadir, Siisaay Taakaluu, Daammana, and many others in the counties of Galamsoo, Waaccuu, and Bookee. However, the surrounding Oromo population being excited by the actions of our gallant fighters strengthened their support of OLA, the report added.

It is to be recalled that OLF News has reported that on March 04, 2010 OLA made more than 54 enemy troops out of action, on February 10 OLA has killed 6 Woyane troops, on January 31 that OLA has killed 6 and wounded more than 9, on January 16, 2010 that OLA Eastern command has killed 3 and wounded more than 8; on October 31, 2009 that OLA fighters operating in Arsi have killed 5 and wounded more than 7; and on October 21, on August 6, August 27, and July 11, 2009 OLA freedom fighters have killed a total of 40 and wounded 21 others in Western Harargee zone.

OLA Eastern command added in their report that our freedom fighters will continue their attack on the invading Woyane troops until Oromia is liberated.

Somaliland Where
written by Djiboutian, April 21, 2010

@Somalilander, you are disgrace and in the words of Somali southerns qaldaan futo uro, my question to you is Somaliland where? am looking at google earth as i type right now, and am having hard time locating "Isaaqland" despite of almost two decades of slocitating for international recognition from this agame aidstopian bantus. Who really doesn't give a damn thing about Somalis and our cushites couisins general, regardless of where in the horn they from. By the way this is the great "Gudubiirsi" talking we run Somaliland ask Mr. Rayale. and my beautiful nation of Djibouti will never recognise one tribe led regime. We are uniting with our dhulbahante and warsangeli brothers to keep you under the Blue lone star flag, the only thing we respect about isaaq flag is the meaning full Arabic letters. Ogadenia is suffering because of this endless tribal rivalries amongest somalis in Somalia and Ethiopians know that shit. Strong and United Somalis the worst threat to Ethiopia this is something all Ethiopians kno.

@Somalilander- first show strong and united front, we'll have our disagreements amongst us at home. Ogadenia or Ogaden was behind the freedom of mine & ur people in Somaliland from the British don't forget that. after all the Sayid Abdulle Hassen was native Ogaden, who fought relentlessly against the British. He fought for Somalism not tribalism, and for you to talk like that against this zone 5 freedom fighters you are disgrace Isaaq very soon these ethiopians will attack you for you're port because in Djibouti we increase our port taxes and this agame doesn't want to pay up so they tell only Isaaq tribe i will recognise you if you let me use port of berbera which rest of the other tribes in Somaliland opposes. We at Djibouti are waiting for the day which Isaaq will be back stap. Although i believe they will receive the help of all Somalis i just want see the look of ur face, like the 1960 after independence of Somaliland it was Gudubiirsi and Dhulbahante who unified Somaliland with Somalia we will agaian.smilies/wink.gif
