  1. Congratulation OLF! The better option for Woyane is nothing, only to run away. Meles should go now! OLF is the true and original party of Oromo people is under unity with other Ethiopian people. OLF is not artificially developed fake party, like Kuma Demeksa-Abadula Gemeda’s Oromo’s party, OPDO. IT IS NOT YOUR TIME TO DISSEMINATE PROPAGANDA ON OLF, AS TERRORIST AGAINST THE INTEREST OF ETHIOPIAN PEOPLE. MELES THIS ENVIRONMENT IS TARBULENT, NOW IS EVERY THING CHANGED ON YOU. Meles take your time, but you must go immediately!!! You can find OLF IN THE HEARTS of all Oromo people, OPDO you don’t. OPDO is only under the dream of corrupted Abadula Gemeda and the like. OPDO IS TPLF’s project to kill and oppress the Oromo people and other Ethiopian people. Thanks very much Dr. Birhanu Nega for your devotion and commitment, you are the true son of Ethiopia. Please avoid Woyane’s epidemic and chronic fake ethnic politics. It is the beginning of the revolution with great achievement!! It is time to establish new and democratic Ethiopia on the basis of justice and equality for all its citizen. Barberic Meles , you must go now!!! Time is unidirectional, you can’t reverse the time, you can’t reverse the reality. You can’t save yourself by buying 200 tanks. YOU CAN’T SAVE YOURSELF BY BUYING DRONE, manless warplane. You must go now!!!!
    Victory 4 Etiopian people!!!!

  2. I agree with Dr. Getachew’s comment, but in some cases i have comment—- authority transfer to youth like Beka is premature and it would be a bench mark and a rift for woyane to create a division. It is a time of inclusion, it is a time of unity, but i believe it is not a time of authority transfer.

  3. Anti-Ethiopia rifrafs: Your days are numbered! We will hunt you down, and you will have your day in court again! The Ethiopian people are sick of you!!!

  4. I can almost see Woyanes shaking in their boots,for no doubt this is the nightmare they have been conniving to prevent happening the last 20 years of their tyranny. Never mind the program and even the efficacy of this New Coalition, the very fact that the OLF and other Ethiopian organizations met under one roof and pledged to work together to remove Africa’s new apartheid represents a huge psychological blow to the Woyane. They never thought it could happen and happen it did and now it’s up to all Ethiopians who seek freedom and democracy for that unfortunate land to make it work and hasten the demise of the evil regime sitting in our beloved country. Make no mistake Woyanes will leave no stone unturned to nip this movement in the bud and kill it before it even takes off. They may even pull of some surprises to bribe and appease those member organizations of the NC, and particularly the OLF, in terms offering political concessions to create a split from the very beginning. But I believe we seem to recognize now that any lasting solution to Ethiopia’s problems must be properly anchored on political consensus built around the wishes and aspirations of the Oromos and Amharas. That simply is the inescapable reality of Ethiopian politics whether one likes it or not. So congratulations to all those who made this rapproachment possible; they deserve our unreserved support so this noble effort reaches fruition.

  5. This is a good step forward. I think it is time to create a shadow government by the combined forces of ONLF, OLF and G7.

    Now there is a very important problem of infiltration. If you can NOT solve it, it is pointless to work together. I suggest a geographical compartmentalization of the organizations thereof. What does that mean? I am talking about organizing your cells by a geographically minimizing system whereby it is almost impossible to be infiltrated. Then move from there upwards. THis way, in the unlikely event one cell is infiltrated, atleast the rest will survive.

    I consider the challenge for OLF and G7 in the coming days will be MOSTLY INFILTRATION. There will be trouble makers. And there will be arguments and fights. It is inevitable. It will be most likely instigated by infiltrators. G7 has been more or less free of this problem and I can almost see happening now. What is OLF doing to avoid such a situation? Everything depends on what G7 and OLF do to get rid off infiltrators amongst themselves.

  6. I have listened to the speeches by those 3 Ethiopian doctors: Dr. Nuru Dedefo, Dr. Birhanu Nega, and Dr. Getachew Begashaw. I hate to comment on their speeches but I must do it.

    I wish the two doctors, Dr. Nuru Dedefo and Dr. Birhanu Nega had spoken in the languages they are good at in explaining their views to their audiences. Dr. Nuru had a very hard time to explain his thoughts in the Amharic language, and I am very sorry for him that he had failed to first master the Amharic language and then get his doctoral degree; therefore, I would call him ተብታባ, and I hope he would go back to school and learn the Amharic language.

    I thought Dr. Birhanu Nega’s presentation was very good when he talked about the common Ethiopian food, song, celebrities, musicians, writers, athletes, funerals – things that are common in all our Ethiopian societies, things that can unite us, but he had a big problem in limiting himself to the Amharic language. I saw him fighting hard to avoid the English language coming into his Amharic words. I saw him mixing the two languages together and presenting them to his audiences. He tried, using his hand, to push out the English language away from the Amharic language, but it was a lost battle. So I call him ዘባራቂ. He must present his speech either in English or in Latin, or in Wuragie. I like his views though!

    Dr. Getachew Begashaw delivered his speech in an excellent Amharic language. He reminded his audiences ahead of time that he had no Amharic word that precisely tells the exact definition of “ethnicity.” He said: “the word ዘር does not define it. The word ጎሳ does not define it.” So he told his audiences he was going to use ethnicity as it is. He is absolutely right there is no any Amharic word that defines ethnicity. Perhaps, the other Amharic word that comes closer to ethnicity is ወገን or የወንዜ ልጅ but the Geez language has it, and that word is ነገድ, and that is the only word that I can think of for the moment. Any way, for his honesty and command of the Amharic language, I would call him ingenious and gracious!

  7. This is an important development. The OLF leadership must be congratulated for trying to come out of its isolation.

    The history, current lives and the future of Oromos is inseparable from other Ethiopians. Oromo nationalists therefore must continue to find ways and means of building dual identity where Oromo nationalism can co-exist with Ethiopian nationalism. The two nationalisms are not necessarily opposing forces.

    With regard to the Transitional Government, the appears to be consensus, not just between Ginbot 7 and OLF but among the broader segement of the opposition. The two parties however still need to move further and articulate the program of the Transition period. They must articulate how competition for power will not lead to conflict and splits. The checks and balances that can endanger the unity of the country need to be articulated in full. Otherwise the marriage can be a marriage of convinence, evidently without true love.

  8. This is the right way for peace, unity and development. Ethiopia’s problems can be solved if people are united, if people respect the culture, language and values of each other. This is the first step for emancipation of all and the fall of Woyanes.

  9. @8 assta b gettu
    You just started infiltrating by considering the way people pronounce words. You ideot woyane thugs; your days r numbered. Better find somewhere to hide. Long live Ethiopia
    Death to tyrany and aparthied

  10. Assta B. Gettu
    Good observation and like the serious staff and the hummer. To add just one more observation. (ALEJE)????? What is that now. I can’t help feeling the meeting is between Dr. Birhanu, Dr. Begashaw and OLF. Ginbot 7, (ALEJE) or what ever other acronym that will come tomorrow seems to me is Dr. Berhanu with different outfit. It has this unsettling that feeling it is all about him and nothing else. And After all the negotiations of 2005 with Vicky Hudson and giving away small pieces of victory till CUD is left with nothing I don’t know if I have the stomach to give all chips to Dr. Berhanu.

  11. Assta,

    Woyanes like you never had the courage to talk loud in Oromia until very recently. They would hide their head under the sand so that they don’t attract attention. I was always surprised at their reclusiveness. Thanks to looted guns of the Ethiopian people and the Tigrean Mafia governement you are engaged in insulting people. I hope thate there are people who view your posts in the country through any means.

  12. Viva Dr. birhanu. This is historic speech. The best he has ever given. I wish everyone has the same understanding and definition of Ethiopiawinet. I m sure Meles would agree totally.
    I hope Elias will learn something from this.

  13. Congratulations for OLF and all Ethiopian people!!! This is great historical achievement!!! Now Baberic Meles, can’t able sleep. Have u designed a strategy to counter the sabotage of Meles to divide and disintegrate the parties? Savage Meles might design moronic sabotage, not strategy to reverse this historical public achievement, but it will be crashed by the unity of Ethiopian people! Do you remember, Bali and Harar Massacre in areas Deder and Arbagugu that killed innocent peasants, civilians, I apologize if I do not mention the place properly and correctly. It is known this massacre orchestrated by barbaric Meles through his common ethnic division to insight one ethnic group against the other . Dr. Nuru I was born and grown up in Oromia region, I know the Oromo people, if you ask them water they give you milk. Why did that murder happen? It is b/s of the common ill-set behavior of Meles and some selfish-minded Derg -ESEPA era cadre and others, who wanted to benefit themselves out of the situation rather than for the Oromo people. Dr. Nuru, here it requires to go through the root cause of the problem with solution….design a strategy so that it never happen again….Bravo Dr. Birhanu u have under death penality, u lost a lot of things, we have a problem to appreciate others, here it requires cultural revolution. Dr. Birahanu be careful Woyane’s cell , watch 360 degree, they will bring sharp knife to divide your unity.
    Freedom for Ethiopian people!!

  14. The Necessity of Fostering an Effective Alliance or an Efficient Unity Against the Woyane

    “…..Nothing can save the political acrobatist Meles Zenawi, from the imminent and the upcoming revolution; that means the time is for a revolution. But we, the Oromo nationalists, do ask: where are the other students, while the Oromo students are revolting? Why are the Amhara students and the students from the other opressed nations still sleeping? Are they still the victims of Woyane’s divide and rule method? We actually must be able to say together: no more antagonizing the all-inclusive freedom fighters in favour of the Woyane fascist forces. It is clear that the Woyane fascists and racists survived by dividing, fragmentizing and polarizing both the Amhara integrationist camp and the Oromo independenist camp among themselves and between each other.

    But now the question is: how long will both the Ethiopian nationalists’ camp of the Amhara and the Ethnic nationalists’ bloc of the Oromo allow the Woyane to play with them and how long do they give a chance for this mafia group to beat them turn by turn? Are they less intelligent than the Woyane not to outsmart this fascist and racist regime? Time will show us for how long Woyane will play the game of pure political acrobat, presenting itself (camouflaging) as either the Oromo independenist or as the only Ethiopian unionist (killil-federalist) or as the Amhara integrationist just to sow a discord among the opposition and make these different parts of the opposition to fight each other; actually the only true motive of Woyane is to keep the Tigrean hegemony at any cost. On the day that the Oromo nationalists start to make also the issue of an integrated Ethiopia as their own regional issue, of course beside an independent Oromia as the national issue, and on the day the Amhara nationals start to accept and respect Oromia’s right to exist, at least within an integrated Ethiopia, this day will be the day of a real demise for the fascist and racist Woyane regime….”

  15. Assta B. Gettu, yalantem smart yelem go to hell with your woyane masters. One can understand your intentions from the first paragraph. What about your Woyane masters do they speak Amharic; ‘Motto,Shar…ta, Lukmats…is that amharic?’Those are the official languages in Immigration,Gumruck,federal police offices, difence offices, do not worry whatever language Ethiopian language you speak, whether it is Amharic,Tigrigna,Oromigna,Wolayitigna,Guragigna, e.t.c, as far as your audience understand your messages, you have met your goals. I understand you are panicing along with your masters due to this alliance. We are coming to your heads,don’t try to pretend to appreciate some and curse others, ther are all our leaders!

  16. Assta B. Gettu
    Dr Nuru does not need to know Amharic well to speak. He did that so that people like you who can not understand English may get the information. If you continue doing this you may spoil the unity, but we are already identified who you are. Oromo says ‘Dhufu nanyaata jette sareen waraabessatti dutti’ which means dogs bark to Haynes in case it comes nearer it may eat it. But your time is numbered and you better join us or go jail soon.

  17. I like this. This is what I was waiting for. Hopefully all oppositions will come forward and make a difference to our country. First of all we have to start to be civil and matured. That means, we have to avoid all name calling, hate words or uncivilized manners when we challenge the current government in Ethiopia. We do not have to use street words to define woyane because that will make us a bunch of gangesters not better than woyane. For example, the nonsense or very childish words used by Elias Kifle makes my stomach sick and undermine oppositions movement. I don’t know how Elias see this kind of approach very suitable. Oppositions divisions, unpleasant or irrelevant word selection, and excluding tigre people and as well as the lack of disengagement with OLF, ONLF, and other ethnic groups in the struggle makes woyane to stay on power for the last twenty year. As Dr. Getachew points out, we have to find a new strategy and also a big commitment from OLF, and ONLF to assure the people of Ethiopia they stand for unity. In my opinion, the Arab kind of uprising revolution fail in Ethiopia because of fear of the ethnic opposition groups not because of fear of woyane weapons..fear of civil wars. Not because woyane tell people about OLF because the Ethiopian people fear of separation.

  18. People are talking about distant infiltrations and agent provocateurs while we have the well known divisive head serpent and agent provocateur calling his spineless self as Assta B. Gettu. The idiot is a typical Wayane in plant. I know him personally. :)

    Otherwise many thanks for all the respectful speakers and their winning visions.

  19. Asta B Gutu

    Hey dont spit venom. All you talk about is Mastering Amharic. I am sure all of the speakers delivered their speeches properly and the audience understood their messages. You are trying to hurt their feelings All I can say in brief is YOU ARE wolf in sheep skin. Neqtenal woyanewoch ayiseram!

  20. Assta: It is a cheap and ugly comment. I now know what your motive is. In another topic, you pretended to elevate one relgion over the other and now you injected a divisive comment. Instead of analyzing the content of their messages, you made a mockery of their delivery methods and speech styles. Your intention is clearly to stir up the forum and create divisons, not to create a meaningful argument.

  21. you’re such a cynical, bigotry, old-guard, entrenched in the middle age mentality. I read your lengthy comments here and you’re one of those DEBTERAS. Come out of your shadow and speak your mind instead of commenting and criticizing others. try to identfy yourself and contribute in meaningful way instead of spitting your venom. I am all for positive and constructive criticism. Yours is so PAROCHIAL, OLD-FASHIONED, PRO-GHION/ABAY/ORTHODOX.

    This meeting is not a test for AMHARIC language. It is about crafting a new vision, a new architecture for the NEW ETHIOPIA. Everyone has a right express herself or himself in a language and manner they see fit. You can’t even know how to spell GURAGE. The fact that you spell it as ‘WURAGIE’ tells me you’re writing it the way you pronounce it or say it like your narrow-minded Ghionites say it. Please go and recite your geez and enjoy your life.

    I am comforted, however, the 21st century Ethiopian YOUTH won’t buy your senseless self-aggrandizing blabber.

  22. Elias your editorial policy questioned when you accept the talkback of Assta B. Gettu . Elias you are a shame for decent Ethiopians. This type of people should not get the chance to post thier poisnous agenda in this media. You should have throw the talkback of # 8 to the dust bin automatically let alone post it here. Assta B. Gettu ethinc hatred and Amhara’s superiority complex would not serve our agenda at this crucial time. This is just a lottorey and a windfall bonanza for Woyanne propaganda machine. How can we unite ourselves in this crucial time and fight Woyanne if we continue cannibalising each other by spliting hair in the excellence of Amharic language and insluting our opposition leader by calling them ‘Tebtaba’ and ‘Zebaraqi Wuragie’. If the OLF people offended by this comment I don’t blame them. This insult will only help our enemy Woyanne. This is because eventually the OLF people distance themselves for being rediculed in this way.

    Elias, if you value the unity of Ethiopia you should fight anti-unity element. So for the sake of our unity and bloosming relationship among political party of OLF, ONLF and Ginbot 7, please remove the posted talkback # 8. This will help to keep our unity and resolve to fight Woyanne. One important thing you should remeber that Woyanne scared to die with the bloosiming relationship of OLF, ONLF and Ginbot 7. That is why Woyanne lable them as terrorist organisation and work day and night to dismantle these organisation. God bless Ethiopia.

  23. O God, really this will send a chilly-signal down to the Woyane’s back-bone. If Ethiopian peoples from every corner united and stand together hand-in-hand, let alone 200 tanks and so called ” drone ” NO any power on this earth will defeat the dermined and mother land LOVING ETHIOPIANS. UNITING IS THE INITIAL THING FOR ALL OF US TO BE FREE AND PROUD PEOPLE ON LAND.

  24. ASSTA B. GETTU #8

    if not all, many Ethiopians know that you Woyane’s mole and have tried many times to ignite conflicts among the Oromos and others Ethiopian peoples. You will fail like your bosses for whom you are opperating. You will never escape your fate of being hunted down. YOU ROTTEN RODENT !

  25. Assta B. Gettu
    You must be the weyane Cadre and for sure you are the one sent deliberately to infiltrate the united fronts. Now you must know very well that your time is numbered.
    Dr Nuru Dedefo is one of the greatest man that will be respected and remembered throughout the history of Ethiopia, and OLF as well. Wether you like it or not now the real people are coming to rule Ethiopia. Inspite of all the marginalisation and suffering of the oromos in their own countries by the support of the neocolonialists, Dr Nuru is making a blowing remark to humanity and respect of all people which he reflected also the position of OLF. We all Ethiopians will give a high regard to the oromo leaders who have been grown up with leadeship qualities in their tradtions. Had Ethiopia been ruled by the majority, We would have gone far a head to the level of developed nations and would have become one of the strongest and the most stable nations in Africa. But We must now tell you all Stupids (dedeboch), who have ruined the whole nations, have no time to play a game any more.

    Dear OLF, GF and others, we would like to congraduate you on this very historic moment.

    Please we have a very reliable evidence that Weyane cadres in ethiopia and abroad are working hard at their last minute to foil this united alliance and concepts by dessiminating hatred speeches and derogatory words. Please remain in genuine Love and respect. We have very reliable evidence from inside that Meles is in the greatest turmoil now. We are now on the right truck…. We know that those who have been down trodden but have the greatest experience and leadership qualities, their time is near to rule the whole nation in harmony and love and prosperity. They have been struggling for decades and now is the time for things to happen

    May God Bless Oromos, Amghara, Ogaden, Annuak, Somali, Tigri etc.

    We assure you that Ethiopia will be ruled by the real people with the majority votes.

    Great oromos!!!!

  26. Dear commentators #12, #15, #19, #20, #22, #23, #26, #28, #30, 32, #33, and others. I hope the number of those who commented against me will grow and give me the freedom to bring more people to this internationally recognized web site.

    We all care about Ethiopia and wish the demise of Meles Seitanawi (Zenawi)so that our people will have a better future for themselves and for their children.

    As some of you think I am a pro-Woyanne regime, you better think twice before you spread your venom on some one without understanding the person’s political or religious affiliation. Meles picks up some journalists in Addis Ababa and sends them to jail for criticizing his misguided leadership. What is the difference between you and Meles if you condemn me for expressing my views, my feelings, and my factual opinions about each one of the speakers? If my comment has hurt the feelings of those speakers, let them explain their pains to me. I know one thing people who dread opposing views are authoritarian rulers like Meles Seitanawi (Zenawi), and in this case, you are less than Meles Zenawi, and none of you will be the leader of Ethiopia. I admire the three Ethiopian doctors for trying to bring together Ginbot 7 and the OLF. I simply gave my honest views on the art of their speeches, and that is all!

  27. Asta B Getu is an ostentatious, conceited, delusional Weyane clown who always bothers to make only trifling observations and now identified a Amharic grammar as an important issue. As if to proclaim without correct Amharic one is not able to speak, learn or lead. A Simple minded riff-raff with misguided priority!

  28. Assta B. getu- you are still immature and still behave like a serpent.
    Never try to pretend to be honest…. U will reap what you sow. One thing I must tell about you is that you are cursing yourself and your all blood lines and will live by it unless you make a 360 degree turn. Please do not let the curse of your words hunt you and your family line.

    You are in-human,anti-unity and anti-Ethiopians by all measures.
    So if you say we should get disappointed and neither do you becasue we said this to you.

    Weather you like it or not, we are in the new era where nearly all people within Ethiopia recognise the essence of living in harmony, genuine love and respect. We give recognition and due regard to those efforts that are reconciling our beautiful people of all ethnic background who have been hurted by venomic words spoken agaisnt them like you do. We are in the time where Ethiopians will recognise the elders institution and indgenous knoledge of elders of all ethnic groups which have been working in conflict resolving and management.

    Please we would like to tell All those who still insist in puffing up that we are the last in the least becasue of pride of some groups of people that have killed the country.

    We will never give it a chance becasue it has ruined all people to a level of letting as beggars and number one immigrants and the poorest nation. Some people have chosen to live like that becasue they never admit that it is our bad words that come out of our moths about humanity which let us live in a curse

    This is a time to re-thing for collateral and symbiotic co-existence.

    May God Bless all people of Ethiopia

  29. Assta:
    I personally don’t care about your religious belief and idelogical inclination. All views should be welcome in this forum. What disturbs me is your deliberate deviation from the actual context. You either bizzarely reduce issues to elemenatry algebra or skew readers’ attention to your skin-deep and deregetory analysis. You basically put down all speakers, including Dr Getachew who would feel offended by your chauvinist and middleage view. And yet, you expect them to respond to you. I really doubt your own sanity.

  30. Finally, I like many others have been bitterly complainng about has been illusive of a solidarity or unity among the differing political faction in the country.Finally,it is a goodnews that we begin to march in the right direction.Drawing from experiance,specially the conning nature of the regime,many are already expecting the government will do any thing to tawert this coaltion.
    One option can be first Melese will intensify,possibelly reling from information gained from Shabia,the attack on both ONLF and OLf sits,in hope of securing the Amharans help.However,this won’t hold water the people have already spwee him out long ago,never to deal with him again.Second,as Feyisaa pointed out he may attempt to make concetions to the Olf there by to errode the movement for unity.However, the one cristlized idea that is taking root among Ethiopians is this.That the two organizations Shabia and TPLF have same strategical interest.That they have deconstracted Ethiopia on the basis of Adwa and Hamassen family tree.Therefor. It is up to Oromos and Amharas to construct Ethiopia on the basis of common solidarity”period.

  31. It was shame on Oromos, it was shame on Amharas. Weyane is not even playing smart or hidden politics. They are using the technic europeans used in 18th and 19th ceturies, which in today’s standard a 5 year old baby can understand. To the surprise of many, it worked for them more than what they can believe. They start with “POW” with IQ of retarded person or underdeveloped mental. Weyanes made sure they get fed well and brain wash them in to believing that Amhara is the enemy of Oromo and Oromo is the enemy of Ethiopia. The succesfully implanted in many Amharas that Ethiopia under leadership of Oromos will disntegrated in countless places. The did similar confussions to may oromos, that the ethio under Amhars leadership amounts to returning to the Neftegna system. They make sure that only Amharas and Oromos with these mentalities can join the politics in Ethiopia. The relation between these retarded Amaras and Oromos with the TPLF not better than that of lord and slave of feudal system.
    No mature Amhara or Oromo will be entrusted with the game of politics in Ethiopia now. They can even make a mass firing if they think the game is unbalanced. For rthat matter Oromos and Amharas intermarried. They live together with no problem until weyane the preacher of evil came to the middle of the country with evil of their own.
    It is not too late to salvage our integrity. With due respect to all tribes, Oromos and Amharas have a key in their own hands to unlock the TPLF devilish door slamed on us for over two decades. Oromos killed by Oromos in 20 yrs unnder the TPLF order are many times fold of oromos killed by Neftegnas over a century a go. After all the neftegna problem was totally resolved by students movement abot 4 decades ago. Can some one tell me how many amharas are with no Oromo blood or how many oromos with no amhara blood? Coming together of Amharas and Oromos can shake the whole being of TPLF with no fighting. Nothing more than this union can scare weyanes.They work hard and invest a lot on this weakness.By calling dead neftegna , TPLF is terrorizing oromos live. By recitting desntegration of ethiopia weyane is doing damage to many amharas mind. After all, no body can tell me if there is any body who practically disntegrate ethiopia the Tplf.
    Lets stand up together and help each other on our weaknesses. Our Unity is the weakness of Weyane.
    Lets no more 20 yrs at each others throat, and do the business of weyane. Weyane killed more peacefull ethiopian at home more than ethiopians dead at war front for 30 yrs. Lets put a break on weyanes free ride in the country and make ethiopia available for all ethiopians.
    Unity is strength. “DIR BIYABIR ANBESSA YASIR;

  32. Surprise, surprise! Ginbot 7 is coming from a high, noble, and kingly family. OLF is coming from an ordinary or mediocre family; therefore the marriage between the two is morganatic.

  33. Assta B. Gettu
    The day we understand Ethiopians need freedom not just from Meles Zenawi but that possesses him the “Irkus Menfes” called tyranny we sure will be on the right direction. And that means to recognize the tyranny on every one of us and route it out. Keep the different and original thinking. There is nothing to expose tyrants as thinking differently. It drives them mad and you would know who they are.

  34. What is the need for wasteful discussion? Oromiyaa is already more than 60% liberated and independent. It will be fully an independent nation within the next years and most possible in 3 years. What is Birhanu’s problem expressing his mind in his own mother tongue? I feel sorry for you folks. The discussion should have been based on the inevitable fact that beginning 2014 there will be fresh mint republics back there. 1) The Republic of Amhara, 2) The Republic of Oromiyaa, 3) The Republic of Tigray, 4) The Republic of Ogadenia, 5) The Republic of Afar and 5) The Republic of The Omotic People. Such discussions from now on should be to talk about the inter-republics treaties and diplomatic relations that will be needed. Period.

  35. To Assat B.Getu and Ordofaa,
    Most likely both of you must be Tigreans who are trying to spoil the new front and keep your
    ethnic based domination in the country so that you guys can keep the money flow to open
    liquor stores and gas stations in North America by stealing from the rest of Ethiopia.Do not
    worry.I would rather see independent states than Little minded Tigreans ruin the country !!

  36. #43….,You,silly woyanne you want to cheat us using an oromo name’Ordofaa’. But,you missed the spelling…the correct spelling is ‘Hordofaa’ this means that you’re not oromo…you are one of the mindless dog-woyanne.

  37. #43.Ordofaa,

    You are a well known Wayane divisive agent provocateur talking the same thing and repeating yourself on all forums. You might even be that masked sweating Wayane running dog calling himself Assta B. Gettu trying to double fool us.

    You are working for your big belly being payed by tyrants. Do you thing that we can not identify Wayane moles after 20 years of experience with such spineless master liars?

  38. It is a good news if it is really genuine and realistic. If so the G7, OLF, and ALEJE must unconditionally invite othe opposition groups, working inside Ethiopia and build provisional goverment in exile and start working on how to tacle the bloody woyane junta. Then call for general election for building a democratic government under the rule of law, thereafter there shall NO factions or Liberation organizations. Only united sovereign Ethiopia there all live in peace and injoy their lives.

    Ethiopia Prevails.

  39. You ORDOFAA, as you call yourself with false-spelled and borrowed name, you are not diffirent from your commarade ” ASSTA B. GETTU ” who although he calls hemself an Amhara, de facto he is die hard Woyane under ground operater who is working around the clock with mallet and chisel to separate the Ethiopian peoples. Your time is shortend and you are standing naked.

  40. Those who called me Wayane..You are lucky that you did not say that to my face. You are despicable individuals. And those who moaned and complain about how I spelled my name. That was the name and how I spelled it since I start writing it in English. My elementary teacher who was an Oromo himself, Obo Gemechu Rufie spelled it for me a long time ago. And I left it as it is in his honor. And don’t lecture me about my name and the spelling thereof. You must be one of those individuals who are hell-bent in maintaining of the status quo and therefore you must be the ones who are stooping so low to lick the Woyane’s boots, those stinky, cactus-infested boots of this rat-face midget from Tigray and his consort Azaba. You must be ashamed of yourself. So shut up, you slackers!!!! I told you this before and I am telling you this now: Oromiyaa will be an independent new nation in less than 4 years. In fact, it will be the newest nation to join the United Nations Organization in 2014 as the 194th member. She will be followed by the Republics of Amhara, Ogadenia, Afar, The Omotic People and Tigray and in that order. Tigray may decide to join Eritrea in a federated republic. Afewerki is half Tigrayan and the midget in Finfine(Addis) is 80% Eritrean. So it will be a marriage arranged in heaven for both if they decide to go that away. Again, you have been fore-warned now. Oromiyaa will be an independent nation in less than 4 years.

    In the meantime, I would like to thank the owners of this website to open their platform for my announcement and(100% accurate)prediction.
