Are the Hyaena (Naftagna), the Fox (Woyane) and the Wolf (Shabiya) Going to Cooperate Against the Lion (OLF)?!
I nowadays hear and read that the three hitherto enemies of the Oromo in general and that of the OLF in particular are trying to cooperate in order to fight Dr. Abiy and his administration. With this pretext of fighting Dr. Abiy, they actually want to re-conquer the Oromo and re-occupy Finfinné/Oromia. Eventhough Dr. Abiy is not as such loyal to the Oromo cause, when it comes to the three beasts (the Hyaena Naftagna, the Fox Woyane and the Wolf Shabia) try to beat him, I would advocate for the whole Oromo and other oppressed nations to support him and hinder the beasts from coming back to Finfinné. Especially, the neo-Naftagnas are bragging about the near future victory they may have over the OLF camp, just as they allegedly achieved against the TPLF in the past. They try to compare their fight against the Fox to the struggle they do have now against the Lion (OLF) in particular and the Oromo in general. They formulated that their main enemies are the “16th century migration of Galla” and the now flourishing Oromummà (Oromo identity). With this formulation, they defined the whole Oromo, not necessarily the ruling party, as their main foe. It is simply put, similat to a real Hyaene declaring a fight against a real Lion. Expectedly, the Lion is now biting the Hyaena mercilessly. No chance for the Hyaena to scape this deadly biting, as it could survive that of the Fox in the past. This is the beginning of the end for the Hyaena and its hitherto system of domination. Adeos to the poor Hyaena, which foolishily provoked the Lion! Next to be dealt with is the Wolf.

No way, Jose. OLA is the Lion as far as I am concerned.

Nah—- The ungrateful gallas are donkeys, not lions. I mean worst than donkeys, and we will beat the crap out of them soon. Messing with the lion of Nakfa is the grave mistake the Galaluls have ever made.

Fed up,
Oromon leenchuma (Oromos are lions). Opdo ain't Oromo. That's why they were imposed on oromos and Ethiopians.
Fighting abiys regime is one thing, but Fighting the oromo is an entirely different thing. You could not beat the Oromo in your best wet dreams dude. Oromo are the ones who chased your agame allies out of power, barehanded, while you guys could only watch from afar with your big military. Which shows brains beat brawn in a lot of situations. Military force isn't sufficient.
Do not forget that it was your pia who created opdo with tplf, to exploit oromia/Ethiopia and to counteract genuine oromo nationalists who wished Eritrea the best and morally supported their struggle for independence.
People like Bitweded Abraha were warning pia not to trust the agame tplf too much but those warnings were ignored.
Just like when Eritrean elders warned against training the tplf in eritrea because they would use the knowledge of Eritrean terrain against Eritrea in the future, which they did.

fighting Dr. Abiy, they actually want to re-conquer the Oromo and re-occupy Finfinné/Oromia. Eventhough Dr. Abiy is not as such loyal to the Oromo cause, when it comes to the three beasts (the Hyaena Naftagna, the Fox Woyane and the Wolf Shabia) try to beat him, I would advocate for the whole Oromo and other oppressed nations to support him and hinder the beasts from coming back to Finfinne. Especially, the neo-Naftagnas are bragging about the near future victory they may have over the OLF camp, just as they allegedly achieved against the TPLF in the past. They try to compare their fight against the Fox to the struggle they do have now against the Lion (OLF) in particular and the Oromo in general. They formulated that their main enemies are the "16th century migration of Gàlla" and the now flourishing Oromummà (Oromo identity). With this formulation, they defined the whole Oromo, not necessarily the ruling party, as their main foe. It is simply put, similat to a real Hyaene declaring a fight against a real Lion. Expectedly, the Lion is now biting the Hyaena mercilessly. No chance for the Hyaena to scape this deadly biting, as it could survive that of the Fox in the past. This is the beginning of the end for the Hyaena and its hitherto system of domination. Adeos to the poor Hyaena, which foolishily provoked the Lion! Next to be dealt with is the Wolf.
I hope that Dr. Abiy will soon complete the negotiation with OLA and allow the formation of transitional government in Oromia, where OPP shall share power with OLA, OFC and the OLF. Then, he can have very good and stable power base to hunt and kill the current main enemy of the Oromo, i.e Shabiya who is supporting the extremist Naftagnas. One thing is clear! The OLF (wounded Lion) has already killed the Fox (Woyane) and the Hyaena (Naftagna), but is still checking the Wolf (Shabiya). Is it now the best time to also destroy the wolf? It is nice to observe what a good job the OLF in three directions (as rebel OLA, opposition OFC and ruling OPP) is doing, slowly but surely. I always advised and advocated that the OLF should better choose the regime way of infiltrating Biltsigina rather than only struggling in opposition way of OFC or fighting in rebel way of OLA. It seems that now genuine Oromo nationalists with OLF mindset of bilisummà/freedom are influencing Biltsiginna of Dr. Abiy, so that the ruling party is favouring Oromo struggle by undermining the three [ deleted ] forces of Abyssinia (the Naftegna, Shabiya and Woyane). It looks like the OLF is doing its job using Biltsiginna. The OLF infiltrating Biltsiginna is determined to destroy these three evil forces of Abyssinia one by one. Then, the wonderful Cushitic Ethiopia with Afàn Oromô and Agawigna as main working federal languages and having red see as its see coast shall emerge. Oromia led Horn of Africa is surely the real anticipated future. If Dr. Abiy is ready to realize this modern vision of the Oromo, he can be welcomed by all genuine Oromo nationalists. I think, it is now the high time to bring back Asab coast of Afar to its owners. The Afar has to be reunited and enjoy their autonomy in the future federation of the Horn. After effectively killing the three beasts, all nations in the Horn, especially the Amara, Tegaru and Oromo can live together in long term love and peace.
30 years ago, the three mini carnivorous animals, fox (Woyane), hyaena (Naftegna) and wolf (Shabiya) cooperated against the huge lion (OLF) in order to injure and chase it out of its home. It took the lion many years to revive, heal and survive. Now, it is back to our homeland and is becoming strong slowly but surely. The lion is now struggling against the three [ deleted ] mini scavengers in three directions: being in the regime of Finfinne palace (in OPP), acting as opposition (in OFC) and fighting as rebel (in OLA). The lion already killed the fox, severly injured the hyaena and surely it will start to bite the wolf. The lion is not only attacking the three scavengers directly, but instigate them so that they fight each other. The three small beasts never trust each other and they surely will destroy one an other. Already the hyaena and the wolf started to chase the fox, but the two also can never be true friends. Especially, the hyaena is just waiting for the suitable time to chase and kill the wolf in order to invade its territory. Now is a nice opportunity for the wounded OLF to get rid of the three scavengers from the area and to rule the region peacefully. Congradulation to the lion and I wish you complete healing of your wound and bright future as a king of the Horn.
But what a pity for nations and peoples in Ethiopia! We payed a huge sacrifice in the last three revolutions (1974, 1991 and 2018), inspite of that we lost to dictatorial elites from the three competing main nations (Amhara, Tegaru and Oromo) respectively. The 1974 revolution was hijacked by the Amhara dominated Derg, the 1991 change was misused by Tegaru led Woyane and the 2018 movement is now reversed by Oromo colored Biltsigina. All the three groups of elites were/are brutal dictators. During the Derg era, Amhara elites were dominating, whereas Tegaru and Oromo elites were rebeling. Under Woyane rule, Tegaru elites were privilaged, whereas Amhara and Oromo elites were disadvantaged. Now, Biltsigina is instrumentalized to favour certain Oromo elites at the cost of Amara and Tegaru. Common denominator for the three regimes is a brutal dictatorship and fascism. Fortunately, there were some democratic Amaras, who stood against Derg, few genuine Tegarus, who opposed Woyane and many fair Oromos now struggling against Biltsigina. I hope, the next coming revolution will result to a democratic rule, where the God given rights of all citizens nations and peoples will be respected.
Interestingly all the three hitherto revolutions were reversed by the three initially democrats and revoluionaries. Mengistu was one of the good intended officier during the 1974 revolution. Meles also had good vision as he came to power in 1991 and of course, Meshrefet/Abiy was almost adored as Messiah as he started to rule in 2018. But, why did all these three good intended men end up as evil fascists? I think, they all became infected with virus of Naftagnas with pretext of prioritizing Ethiopiawinet, which in essence is Amharanet. The virus is very subtile and it slowly corrupted the mind of the three leaders. Thus, Mengistu betrayed all oppressed Ethiopians and was manipulated by the Naftagna virus. Meles betrayed mainly the oppressed Tigreans in order to serve Amharanet at federal level also being manipulated by the Neftegnas. Abiy is becoming the big loser for betraying the Oromo cause and serving Amharanet. The main method of Naftagna manipulation is quickly being friends and giving love and respect the three narcist leaders were craving. They adored them and surely manipulated them to do the bidding of Amharanet. Their mechnism of manipulation has got five elements or steps:
– 1st, the Naftagnas got attention of the three Ms (Mengistu, Meles and Meshrefet).
– 2nd, they awashed brains of the Ms with their cause using the pretext of Ethiopiawinet.
– 3rd, they made the Ms fall in love of Amharanet, which is camouflaged as Ethiopiawinet.
– 4th, they enslaved the minds of the three Ms and
– 5th and last, they got their job of promoting Amharanet done by the Ms.
Most pro-Amaranet elites from different non-Amaras were manipulated with such 5 steps mechanism in order to serve Amharanet conciously or unconsciously. Such elites from the Oromo now in power at Finfinne palace being led by Dr Abiy Ahmed are classical examples of the enslaved minds to do the bidding of the Naftagna virus. That is why the three Ms started as democratic revolutionaties and ended up as dictatorial reactionaries.
The third post monarchy dictator, Dr. Meshrefet (Abiy Ahmed) tried a crack down on the OLF and of course the Oromophobic Abyssinians were celebrating him and his action. It is fact that no Abesha force could defeat the Oromo in the past history, but always certain Oromo power monger betrayed and beaten us to submission. The latest three dictators (Mengistu, Meles and Meshrefet) also used certain Oromo elites to subdue the Oromo people. The OLF fought against all the three, but lost because of the Oromo traitors who chose to serve the dictators. All the three dictators came to power in Finfinne palace promising us freedom, equality and democracy, but they ended up being fascists, authoritarian and dictators. Mengistu said “yale minim dem”, but killed hundred tausands. Meles said “ye biher netsanet”, but enslaved all nations. Meshrefet said “Oromon netsa awetahu”, but batrayed Oromummaa to keep the status quo of Amaranet as the main element of Ethiopiawinet. All the three hated the OLF and its cause of Bilisummaa Oromo. To defeat the Oromo liberation movement, they all tried to instrumentalize the conflict of two goals in our camp.
There were always, and there are still, two views and two perspectives among Oromo nationalists. I think the main causes of these two views are the version of Oromo history we do have in mind and our own individual biography. According to the discussion I made with many fellow Oromo individuals, there are even some who do just swim and paddle between the two blocks of ideas. What are these blocks and how can we accommodate them in our journey? I think we can classify fellow Oromo individuals into three in respect to their view about our history and destiny:
– Oromo individuals who seem to accept the history version that we are original Cush nation and even that we are the “stalk” of other Cush nations. The implication of such history is that this group tends to believe and accept that the Oromo people should stay together with Abyssinians (converted Cushites = habeshanized Cushites), who are also “our siblings” from the same origin. So, this group tends to advocate for liberated Oromia within a united Ethiopia and, if possible, struggle further for the Oromo Renaissance (here Oromo being both the Oromo-proper, who now identify themselves as Oromo, and the Oromo-progenies, who “lost their Oromummaa gradually in the last 3000 years history”). I think this is the reason for some Oromo politicians speaking about necessity of a change of philosophy in Oromo liberation movement.
– Oromo individuals who seem to accept that there can be historical relations between Habesha and Oromo, but believe that most important is the colonial relation after Habesha rulers invaded and subjugated Oromia at the end of the nineteenth century in connection to the European colonizers’ scramble for Africa. No question that this group thinks the only destiny of Oromo is a complete liberation of Oromia from the colonization or domination by our neighboring Abyssinia. Of course, this group also sees a possibility of union of free peoples in the region after independence of the Oromo for possible common benefit of all peoples in the region.
– Oromo individuals who do just paddle between the above two options based on the situation because of their own biography. Most of such Oromo personalities or groups have got loyalty conflicts. They tend to be loyal to both Ethiopia and Oromia. People with such minds are either the supporters of the unitarist Oromo movements or they are just promoters of only federation in the Ethiopian context without demanding for further self-determination of Oromo people or for independence of Oromia. Now, such mindset is almost dying among the Oromo community for the struggle is becoming clear and radical.
Many Oromo nationalists wrote about the concern they had because of the position, which try to tell us that the Oromo nation is an origin for most of Ethiopian nations and, as a consequence, Oromo must take responsibility, not only to liberate Oromo-proper, but also other nations, including the Habeshas, seem to be detrimental to the Oromo liberation movement. Simply put, they say that if we believe that Abyssinians are Oromo who lost their Oromummà in the last 3000 years, it will be difficult to make a radical liberation struggle against “our own”.
I do personally share this concern. Firstly, the so called “modern Oromo history” is not yet verified exactly. Secondly, Habesha elites, as crooked they always are, try to use this “modern Oromo history” as an instrument against the Oromo liberation movement. That is actually what we could observe in the cyberworld in the past many years. Habesha elites always try to dilute Oromo’s radical step towards freedom and independence by trying to tell us that we, the Oromo, are part of them – “Ethiopians”, and they actually used such history to try to convince us. They untiredly told us that both Amharas and Tigarus are from Oromo origin, so the liberation of Oromia from the Habesha subjugators, who “are Oromo” themselves, is “not logical”.
As far as my position is concerned, let’s leave history for historians. We don’t need either to believe it or deny it. We just start from the status quo. No question that at the moment Oromo are enslaved by Hybrid (marital, physical and/or mental diqala) elites, so we need to be liberated from this domination. Just in front of our eyes, a lot of Oromo have died just for they are Oromo nationalists and still a lot are languishing in jails. During this time of tribulations, the Habesha elites (“our progeny”) didn’t take Oromo as their own. Why should then the Oromo look at these barbaric tyrants as our own? Let alone Oromo, even the oppressed Habeshas and other nations, should fight them. To decide our destiny, we need our own public verdict. That is why our goal is freedom. Whatever our history is, we stick to this goal.
Disregarding the different versions of our history, we can agree that our nationalism (Oromummà) depends on the view we do have on our national (Oromo) interest. Those of us, who do support and serve this national interest, are the ones with greater Oromummà. So Oromummà is, not only about biological origin, but more about psychological make-up. To that matter, we have seen a lot of biological Oromo individuals who do identify themselves with Oromo foes. I personally think, beyond biological Oromo origin and beyond the language we do speak, an Oromo with sound Oromummà is for me the one who identifies himself with being Oromo, with Afaan Oromo, with our liberation cause and with the Oromo way of life, including Oromo culture.
In short, I must say that whatever our history might be or our status quo is, we should push together for our final destiny of freedom and sovereignty. What matters is the Oromo nation we want to build in the future, i.e. free, independent and prosperous Oromo land, and an emancipated Oromo people within the future union of free peoples; i.e simply put freedom of Oromo people and sovereignty of Oromoland within regional union of free peoples. Our foes like it or not, the OLF is leading us step by step to our kayyoo/goal. By dismantling the monarchy, we moved one step towards our goal of freedom and sovereignty. By kicking out Mengistu/Derg, we moved two step forward. By getting rid of Meles/Woyane, we were three step nearer to the kayyoo. Now, when we either bring back or remove the traitor, Meshrefet/Abiy, we will surely complete our journy and with that both the OLF and the Oromo finally shall get victory. But, as long as Abiy is undermining the Naftagna (hyaena), Shabiya (wolf) and Woyane (fox), he can be supported by Oromo nationalists. Let’s help the three scavengers destroy each other and may Waaqa help the lion!
I hope that Dr. Abiy will soon complete the negotiation with OLA and allow the formation of transitional government in Oromia, where OPP shall share power with OLA, OFC and the OLF. Then, he can have very good and stable power base to hunt and kill the current main enemy of the Oromo, i.e Shabiya who is supporting the extremist Naftagnas. One thing is clear! The OLF (wounded Lion) has already killed the Fox (Woyane) and the Hyaena (Naftagna), but is still checking the Wolf (Shabiya). Is it now the best time to also destroy the wolf? It is nice to observe what a good job the OLF in three directions (as rebel OLA, opposition OFC and ruling OPP) is doing, slowly but surely. I always advised and advocated that the OLF should better choose the regime way of infiltrating Biltsigina rather than only struggling in opposition way of OFC or fighting in rebel way of OLA. It seems that now genuine Oromo nationalists with OLF mindset of bilisummà/freedom are influencing Biltsiginna of Dr. Abiy, so that the ruling party is favouring Oromo struggle by undermining the three [ deleted ] forces of Abyssinia (the Naftegna, Shabiya and Woyane). It looks like the OLF is doing its job using Biltsiginna. The OLF infiltrating Biltsiginna is determined to destroy these three evil forces of Abyssinia one by one.

I personally think, beyond biological Oromo origin and beyond the language we do speak, an Oromo with sound Oromummà is for me the one who identifies himself with being Oromo, with Afaan Oromo, with our liberation cause and with the Oromo way of life, including Oromo culture.
In short, I must say that whatever our history might be or our status quo is, we should push together for our final destiny of freedom and sovereignty. What matters is the Oromo nation we want to build in the future, i.e. free, independent and prosperous Oromo land, and an emancipated Oromo people within the future union of free peoples; i.e simply put freedom of Oromo people and sovereignty of Oromoland within regional union of free peoples. Our foes like it or not, the OLF is leading us step by step to our kayyoo/goal. By dismantling the monarchy, we moved one step towards our goal of freedom and sovereignty. By kicking out Mengistu/Derg, we moved two step forward. By getting rid of Meles/Woyane, we were three step nearer to the kayyoo. Now, when we either bring back or remove the traitor, Meshrefet/Abiy, we will surely complete our journy and with that both the OLF and the Oromo finally shall get victory. But, as long as Abiy is undermining the Naftagna (hyaena), Shabiya (wolf) and Woyane (fox), he can be supported by Oromo nationalists. Let’s help the three scavengers destroy each other and may Waaqa help the lion!

But what a pity for nations and peoples in Ethiopia! We payed a huge sacrifice in the last three revolutions (1974, 1991 and 2018), inspite of that we lost to dictatorial elites from the three competing main nations (Amhara, Tegaru and Oromo) respectively. The 1974 revolution was hijacked by the Amhara dominated Derg, the 1991 change was misused by Tegaru led Woyane and the 2018 movement is now reversed by Oromo colored Biltsigina. All the three groups of elites were/are brutal dictators. During the Derg era, Amhara elites were dominating, whereas Tegaru and Oromo elites were rebeling. Under Woyane rule, Tegaru elites were privilaged, whereas Amhara and Oromo elites were disadvantaged. Now, Biltsigina is instrumentalized to favour certain Oromo elites at the cost of Amara and Tegaru. Common denominator for the three regimes is a brutal dictatorship and fascism. Fortunately, there were some democratic Amaras, who stood against Derg, few genuine Tegarus, who opposed Woyane and many fair Oromos now struggling against Biltsigina. I hope, the next coming revolution will result to a democratic rule, where the God given rights of all citizens nations and peoples will be respected.
