I mean, this may seem small. But don't you think there is some sort of destruction of Ethiopian culture by unregulated invasion of the country by UAE without legal regulation?

Don't you think Abiy Ahmad is selling the country with no ethical regulatory body?

Is not he doing what he wants on the country as personal property?
Alas!!

[Odie]

Is UAE fueling chao in Horn of Africa?

Yes,

Military Presence: The UAE has established military bases in Somalia, Eritrea (I guess not now), and Djibouti, contributing to regional instability.

Support for Factions: UAE backs various factions in Somalia, exacerbating political fragmentation and undermining national unity.

Proxy Conflicts: UAE involvement in the Yemen war and support for southern Yemeni separatists destabilizes neighboring regions like Somalia and Djibouti.

Strategic Investments: The UAE’s control over key ports in Somalia, Eritrea (NO MORE), and Djibouti increases its economic influence, sparking tensions.

Diplomatic Rivalries: UAE’s political and military interventions often fuel rivalries, undermining peace efforts and contributing to regional instability.

I heard some of the UAE funded big mosques are in your home town of Gunchirye. Too daring?

Unfortunate!
To implement the Oromuma dirty vision, the country may have been sold to the tiny country of the desert that wants to be influential at the world stage!
UAE also has no future resource unless it diversify its investment globally, specially in poor countries. In the process it turned Sudan, Eritrea, Somalia and Ethiopia failed states.
I don’t care much about why they invest in Ethiopia the problem is there are no institutions to regulate legal vs clandestine investments and promotion of their culture.

Ethiopia is the modern day colony of the Emirati dude. Shush ……He is working on it The little twerp is very happy to spend the loot any which way he wants. Ethiopia is never colonized ? Wake up and smell the coffee before before the whole house catches fire,The Emirati shi…ck is up to no good.

Dama,
I don't know what you mean by that. You actually worried me. The only left region in Gurage, that has not been Oromized was 7 bet. I am suspecting that these people, while we down look on them, are Oromizing all facets of Gurage as well as other minorities. They won't succeed with Afar and Somli region as these regions historically know the Oromo barbarians and their intent. Now even Amhara and Tigre are being divided and Oromized. Look at their Tigrian (past woyane cadres in this forum) Don't forget the Oromo fascists think all the Amhara and Tigre regions once were touched or oromized in the past and want to complete that.
I don't think people understand the gravity of this. Unless the country is snatched from their hand and moves to some centralized, neutral governing system, the bloodshed and "Kegna" will continue. Don't trust any Oromo politician, not even Jawar and his minion standing against Abiyot.

I don't care about any development social or material this government of gangs brings in the country. What I care is how fast could they be removed and changed with proper operating governance.

[gearhead]

Where is the evidence for these figures? Granted that the signed agreement of currency swaps between the two banks is a predictor of huge transactions to come: over his dead body will Abiy approve of investments in industrial parks, nor will he spend a minute of his time forming a group that will sell the potential to the word.

As is, UAEs power of concentration has him unintendedly hand over policymaking to UAE. That is why non of the economic policy seems written by-us and for-us; rather it's bizarre and lopsided to a nation that is under the stranglehold of stagflation.

In today's world, you cannot prosper alone. You have to open to the rest of the world. You cannot grow by closing your doors for fear of colonization. If external colonization does not happen (very unlikely with current technology), your own dictators will enslave you for sure like in Eritrea. I am not going to oppose you with what you said as there is some truth in that. Why UAE alone participate in development in Ethiopia while a whole other BRIC and non-BRIC countries are in the world to work with, including the west. There is something fishy and a gang work. UAE is known for that. Especially in the absence of regulatory mechanisms, letting a foreign investment in is not something that can be accoladed. Understood well

For sure I am not making it up. I am not a cadre. You could simply use search tech to get your figures.

[ethiopianunity]

The Oromuma and Tplf currently ruling Ethiopia, desire of modernization is to give away Ethiopia’s resources while they pocket the incentives they are getting so they can wear suits, destroy cultures and traditions so they feel equal to Western civilization. At the end, to the foreigners they are still baboons wearing a suit and are being used until they eliminate Ethiopiawinet, traditions, flag, and language etc including disintegration. The so called Olf does not seem to learn from Tplf, as well as Oromos who are ethnic fanatics

I can't imagine where Ethiopia would be without Ascaris protective analysis for Ethiopia's sovereignty.

[Odie]

They are hell bent to change us to speak, look and think like them. That is what their ገዳ ሞጋሳ and ጉዲፈቻ culture dictates. They are also obsessed with the notion of that national resources and land are theirs. All their argument is we are large in number, the land and resource is mostly ours. That is as if they have not destroyed ethnics committed genocide and confiscated the proprerty from rightful owners when the inmigrated from Bale or elsewhere.
What they want is time to implement their more dramatic and noxious agenda. They are running out of time with strong opposition from the Amhara Fano.
They don’t care what happens to the country, and livelihood of others as far as they stay in power and implement their obnoxious dream.

Don't worry about Tigrey against Oromo. They have like 25,000 standing army. Don't worry about Amara against Oromo; only Fano number more than 300,000, includes armed Amaras in Oromo and all over southern Ethiopia. Don't worry about Gambella againt Oromo; they have their own armed group. Same with Somalis. Same with Sidama. All have or have had some type of political/military relationship with Eritrea and other foreign govs.
Worry about only Gurage because it has so far failed to form any kind of self-defence because of individuals discourage nationalist self-defence. Gurage is also being attacked by armed terrorists from within by minority groups within itself such as Kebena and Mareqo, and Qose by terrorits of Yem. Almost 1/2 the population of Welkite fled and Qose is also now a ghost town. Abiy Commondos just look away or have a sympathetic attitude toward the terrorists.
Gurage also losts its politicaland economic unity, in addition to Silte exit, Mesqan and Kistane left Gurage.

In addition, religious conflicts appear here and there.

Gurage is more worrisome in terms of being a target for Oromuma. Other parts of Ethiopia have had established organizations and renewed them to resist impacts of Oromuma.

[Odie]

Not really worried about Amhara and Tigre defending themselves as you said they have their own forces. Southerners, I don't think they have their thing as all the militia are run by the Oromo. Southerners are not any better than Gurage.

My emphasis was rather to show the pervasive nature of the Oromo invasion and the urgency to stop it or balance it out. As you see paid cadres, of non Oromo origin, in this form talk about corridor bla bla of course for money. There is no REAL Ethiopia to talk about at this time. Oromo fascists have bought leaders of other Ethnics to keep quite or not to oppose of what is happening at least, but the ethno-fascists are doing well their job.

Having said that, we are going to disagree again. I agree with you with the point you have raised. That Gurage is divided and not caring for itself. I have to admit, they face a very organized body with tank, bank and all the power, to start with. But the problem is, I repeat, Gurage is not organized to my knowledge. It is running here and there as business as usual. If Gurage was really worried, they should have been worried when they had news aired on OBN. People say Gurage are business-people rich this that. I don't care about if they are. They did not even care to start up YouTube Gurage news channel. Many started it but I believe they lost hope bs the Oromo fascists bullied them like any other media that does not praise the fascists. Also, they could not fund themselves.

Not sure if there are others who take this problem seriously and doing something about it but you and me don't know it.

The whole nation needs salvation for a better future. Everyone is at stake.

[Dama]

The Gurage Media Network was started as rebellion agajnst Jawar's OMN or OBN. Here is the detail.
OBN or OMN had a policy of giving aurtime to Hadiyan, Kembatans, Gamo or any group in the south who did not have their own media. Declibed tge invitation. They hated to show any kind of association with Oromo. Most of these Gurage individuals gott togetger, reached outvto diaspora and Gurage musicians. It took them like a year to finally establish a sicial media/Youtube version of the Gurage Media Network, GMN. Ut had 5 executive numbers. One Muslim with PhD, one Musicia, one news reader lawyers all 4 Christians. You would be shocked in the total lack of journalistism. Shallowness, one liner brief news and the rest was music. Nothing educational about Gurage. Or Gurage Unity. Or about forging one common language or documentations of efforts to make Gurage a written language. Even that small and ineffective Gurage media was closed by Abiy Ahmed.
One film maker from Gunchirye, his last name is Neda. He tried to collect money from rich Gurages in Addis for zermas who were arrested immediately after Abiy came to power in 2018. He released a video in which he narrated that none of them volunteered to help. He also asked those who had hotels if they could give a temporary shelter secretly for a week or two. He said none of them helped. And was disappointed.

Elites, educational and business elites, in most societies, are not beacons of change. Look around. In Eritrea, in Tigrey, in Oromo, in Somali, forces of change have been the youth.
Only Gurage youth would save Gurage. But what forces are there distracting the Gurage youth from Gurage issues? In continuum. From generation after geneeation. From decades after decades.
What stops it from learning and understanding Ethiopia from Amara, Oromo, Tigrey, Somali, Sidama, from the small Gambella?

[Odie]

I was aware when they tried the media. I may have known Neda. He had a lot of connection with diaspora including in Arab countries, many muslims and had whatsap group. I believed they closed them down.
I think there are a lot of young people who try. That is why I said land is important. Terrain is important. Like Tigray and Amhara. You can hide, fight, smuggle weapons. I believe ዋቤ and somewhere ጊቤ region are the strategic areas. Most other places are mostly densely populated areas. You could think for public rebellion. Coordinate with Addis ababans. The Gurage youth should as well explore coordination and work with other effective oppositions to Oromuma fascists. Specially Fano.

Shshsh!!
Gorilla wars are also fought on flat lands. Take for example flat Sudan. Absolute flat tereain. The Mhadists of Sudan defeated combined forces of Egypt-Ethiopua-Britain. What matters is your skill/knowledge of military science: planning, strategies, tactics, intelligence about your enemy such its location, organization and equipment.
Regular armies dig trenches on flat terrains on the path of the enemy and wait it comes closer.
Smuggle weapons in broad day lights as well as nights. Gov does not sleep. It security services work with the population 24/7. You avoid them by your wits, day or night. It may involve insider contacts, bribery, camoflauge, etc. Mountains or valleys are no protection. Gurage has man mountains. Many rivers, mountain ranges like the Zebider moubtain chains. And long firest covered valleys along these rivers.

You have a habit of sticking to your uneducated personal opinons. No natter what. You have no desire to learn and change.

Ask yourself, from which mountains Fano fights and hides in.
