Who is right?

Post by DefendTheTruth » 21 Apr 2022, 16:02

A certain web based media ("critical threats") wrote just today the following, among others:
The Ethiopian government is shifting resources to combat the OLA insurgency. The OLA now *holds eight of the 21 zones in the Oromia region, including territory within 60 miles of the capital city of Addis Ababa, and it conducted attacks and assassinations across all 21 zones in 2022. The Ethiopian military announced a major offensive against the OLA in southern Oromia near the Kenyan border on April 4. The Ethiopian military and regional government forces launched operations into five other zones of Oromia in April 2022 in an attempt to encircle the OLA and prevent it from establishing havens in neighboring countries. The Ethiopian government has also struck *security pacts with neighboring Kenya and South Sudan to *prevent OLA fighters from crossing their borders. The three states have limited capability to seal the *porous borders, however.
essentially it claimed that the Ethiopian government entered into the humanitarian truce with the TPLF just in order to spare the resources to deploy against the OLA (Shane), what ever logic in the eyes of the site could be.

At the same time I also came across the following video after I read the article of the "critical threats", the sounds seem to be authentic, but I am not a prefessional to independently prove the authenticity of the video.

If it is authentic, then the Ethiopian (Oromia) Government's declaration of having get rid off Shane within a month has been realized already.



In case it is authentic, it is also a bonanza for the government and a severe stomachache for the detractors of PM Abiy Ahmed.

PAIN, PAIN, PAIN, revelations.

I don’t know about the authenticity of the phone conversation between the two. If true one statement summarizes the OLA fighting force which one of the two had spoken about: our fighting force , he claimed, is worse than “ Tera shifta.” That is true. In Ethiopia we have heard many things about “ “ shiftas” over the years. But we have never heard of their raping daughters and mothers. Imagine those “shiftas” had never vowed to liberate people as these knuckleheads have been claiming. They rebelled as the folklore goes to avenge a wrong doing committed on them. They however have had a high standard and morale than the so called Oromo liberation army combatants. How sad !
