Remember of the fellow named 'Ahmad Ibn Ibrahim Al-Ghazi (1506–1543) aka Ahmad Gragn'?? ..
Well, if you keep-up with your current orthodox habashi nonesense presented as "politics", you WILL end-up getting one - or several versions of him very soon! .. Remember that he got to smash the habashi empire & torched most of the orthodox churches in the very heartlands of habasha.
Of course, he received the backing of muslim nations such as Turkey, Yemen & Egypt.
So, if not very careful, your very much habasha/orthodox-dominated Aethiopia's current political mess could easily acquire a religious dimension where muslim tribes such as Somalis, Oromos, Afars, Gumuz-Benishangules, Siltes, etc, all get their versions of the Egyptian or Saudi "Islamic Brotherhood" .. or even their version of the Yemeni Islamic fundamentalist jihadists [Huthis] or the Somali version of Al-Shabab.
That is: the issue is not what Arabs/Egyptians could do to still mostly barefooted & near permanently-starving weitos. Rather, it is about their [Turkey, Egypt, Yemenis/Arabs, etc] ability to foment or inflame the historic & still simmering in the background orthodox vs muslim antagonisms in Ethiopia itself.
CAPITO? .. NO? .. Whatever. .. WHY AM I ARGUING WITH SPASTIC MONKEYS ANYWAY?![]()
A BIT on Ahmad Ibn Ibrahim Al-Ghazi (1506–1543) aka Ahmad Gragn:
AHMAD IBN IBRAHIM AL-GHAZI (1506–1543)
Ahmad b. Ibrahim al-Ghazi is known in Ethiopian Christian literature as Ahmad Gran, "the left-handed," political leader of an Islamic jihad movement in sixteenth-century Ethiopia. He rose to power in the context of a century-old struggle for domination in Ethiopia between the Christian emperors who reigned in Ethiopia's central and northern highlands and the rulers of a number of Muslim emirates in that region's eastern high- and lowlands. In the 1510s and 1520s, the emperor Libna Dingil (r. 1508–1540) had managed to overcome the resistance of the Amir of Adal, Garad Abun, as well as of Iman Mahfuz, the Amir of Zaila.
Ahmad b. Ibrahim al-Ghazi grew up in the province of Hubat south of Adal's capital city of Harar and had married Bati Del Wanbara, a daughter of Imam Mahfuz. In the desperate situation of 1527, he was able to unite, under his leadership a number of Somali war bands as well as the forces of the Muslim emirates to defeat an Ethiopian army. With the support of Ottoman artillery, al-Ghazi's army was subsequently able, in 1529, to inflict a crushing defeat upon Ethiopia's united army. Thereupon, he decided to embark on a jihad with the aim to conquer Ethiopia as a whole.

The image or picture you shared with is not of imam ahmed ibn ibrahim alghazi aka ahmed gragn rather of the sudanese mohamed a. Almahdi of the 1880s.
Food for thought,
Imam mohamed almahdi was the grand father of the ex-sudanese prime minister sadiQ almahdi who passed away few months ago.
The imam was already dead prior to the battle of metema against kahsay kircha, His immediate relative named abdulrahman suceeded him and became the new mahdi.
Al mahdi abdulrahman is historically known for saying, I won't march to face this kaffir (he means kahsay mircha) rather I will deploy one of my low ranking generals to face him (of course he did not take part in the battle personally). My main and dangerous enemies are the brits who are occupying my country.
Re: CARTOON OF THE DAY ..
Wendime TGAA,
You are right, Ethiopia survived not because Arab overlords permitted it, but Ethiopian Muslims permitted her survival.
Now the renewal of attacking Muslims and Islam by Mahbere Qidusan inside Ethiopia as we have been witnessing lately, well, it will facilitate her demise quicker than we anticipate.
One needs to lift his hands off Muslims and the cause of Islam in Ethiopia if we need that country to continue as a nation-state.
There are religious subjugation & grievances that were not addressed to bring healing for the past wound, and the country cannot afford another religious strife especially at this moment when outsiders want to eat her alive.
Well, the ball is in the hand of Mahbere Qidusan.

Re: CARTOON OF THE DAY ..
yaballo,
I fully agree with the first cartoon and its implication. However, the latter analysis seems fraud. Eritrean soldiers are intended to rescue OPDO not from their masters Amhara PP but from their enemy Oromo nation's gallant force aka OLA.

Re: CARTOON OF THE DAY ..
Ahmad ibn Ibrihim al-Ghazi was Somali.
Ahmad ibn Ibrihim al-Ghazi (c.1507 - February 21, 1543) was a Somali general who defeated several Ethiopian emperors and wreaked much damage on that nation. He is also known as Ahmad Gragn, or "Ahmed the left-handed".
He was born from the Abraine clan sub-clan of the majority populated North Gadaboursi (Samaron) Tribe in Zeylac. He was married to Bati del Wambara, the daughter of Mahfuz the governor of Zeila . When Mahfuz was killed returning from a campaign against the Ethiopian emperor Lebne Dengel in 1517, the Adal sultanate lapsed into anarchy for several years, until Ahmad killed the last of the contenders for power and took control of Harar.
In retaliation for an attack on Adal in 1527-8 by the Ethiopian general Degalhan, Ahmad invaded Ethiopia in 1529, and inflicted a defeat on Lebne Dengel. Ahmad campaigned again in Ethiopia in 1531, looting the island monastery of Lake Hayq and the stone churches of Lalibela. When he entered the province of Tigray, he defeated an Ethiopian army that confronted him there, and on reaching Axum destroyed the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion, in which the Ethiopian emperors had been coronated for centuries.
The Ethiopians were forced to ask for help from the Portuguese, who landed at the port of Massawa on February 10, 1541 in the reign of the emperor Gelawdewos . This force was led by Christopher da Gama , and included 400 musketeers and a number of artisans and other non-combatants. In response, Ahmad received 900 well-armed men from the Ottomans in Yemen to assist him.
While the Portuguese expedition were victorious in most of their engagements with Ahmad's forces, da Gama allowed himself to be trapped by Ahmad somewhere north of the Tekezé River, where he was killed along with all but 140 of his troops. The survivors and Galawedos were able to join forces, and drawing on the Portuguese supplies, they attacked Ahmad on February 21, 1543 in the Battle of Wayna Daga , where their 9,000 troops managed to defeat the 15,000 soldiers under Ahmad. Ahmad was killed by a Portuguese musketteer, who was mortally wounded in avenging da Gama's death.
His wife Bati del Wambara managed to escape the battlefield with a remnant of the Turkish soldiers to Harar, where she rallied his followers. She agreed to marry his nephew Nur ibn Mujahid on the condition that Nur would avenge Ahmad's defeat.
In Ethiopia the damage which [Ahmad] Gragn did has never been forgotten," wrote Paul B. Henze. "Every Christian highlander still hears tales of Gragn in his childhood. Haile Selassie referred to him in his memoirs. I have often had villagers in northern
Ethiopia point out sites of towns, forts, churches and monasteries destroyed by Gragn as if these catastrophes had occurred only yesterday."1 While acknowledging that many modern Somali nationalists consider Ahmad a national hero, Henze dismisses their claims, stating that the concept of a Somali nation did not exist during Ahmad's lifetime.
Sources
Ahmad's invasion of Ethiopia is described in detail in the Futuh al-habasa ("The Conquest of Ethiopia") written in Arabic by Ahmad's follower Sihab ad-Din Admad ibn 'Abd-al-Qadir , and covers the story up to March 19, 1537. This history was translated into French by René Basset, but no translation into English has yet been made.
Abadir Umar ar-Rida was Somali.
Sheikh Abaadir Umar Al-rida Fiqi Umar was Emir of Harar and patron saint in modern-day eastern Ethiopia. He was Somali and He is a well documented saint of Islam, he spread Islam throughout Ethiopia and Somalia!!
All four were Somalis.

Re: CARTOON OF THE DAY ..
Is a stark representation of events three years ago; still misses gurage stealing and laying a distorted roadmap.
This should continue in a series to show the race started, melosivic abiy and amhara serbs shooting at all the other contestants with tigray and oromia seriously wounded but marching onwards; sudan shooting at abiy and the international media at his throat to force a change in direction.
In a way, the cartoon is reductionist implying a desire for a mere turn around. Alas, the end of the race will be a mortal blow to the willingly crazy.

I used to be not a fan of Mhaber kudusan for completely another reason, but when it come to protecting their faith the are second to none. So I say kudos to them. When religion discrimination go to Saudi and tell me how Christians are treated then you can came back to give me a lecture how they have been mistreated in Ethiopia. As the Muslim oromo radicals were slaughtering in shashemene screaming Alan weake..ber I never heard any Orthodox christian committing this kind of gruesome crime in the name of religion, that however it is not detected by your radar. What made the Christian and Muslim Ethiopians peaceful cohabitation is both respect genuine each others religion,when that balance is no longer the rule of jangle will reigns.so the credit goes to both communities and both sides need to keep the radical elements under lashes.
