Re: Why Amhara Elites are Opponents and Tegaru Elites Proponents of Oromummaa?

The conflict in Ethiopia (Great Oromia) is clearly consolidating in to the fighting between two big blocs, who are struggling for domination vs leadership in Finfinne palace. The two camps of elites are the pro-Amharanet elites, who try to preserve the ongoing domination of Amharigna/Amharanet and the pro-Oromummaa elites, who push for the promotion of Oromiffaa/Oromummaaa to its demographically and geographically legitimised leadership of the federation. To preserve the domination, Amhara elites are using three ways of struggle against Oromummaa: explicitly appearing like Amhara (e.g NAMA), being masked as Ethiopian (e.g EZEMA) and approaching as Oromo (e.g in OPP). The worst from the three groups are those, who claim to be Oromo, but use everything they have to preserve domination of Amharanet and inhibit the legitimate leadership of Oromummaa. That is what the Hybrid leaders in OPP, like Abiy Ahmed and Shimelis Abdisa, are doing. They were smart enough to hijack the 2018 revolution of the Oromo and to crack down the Qeerroo movement and its leaders like Lammaa Magarsaa and Jawar Mohammed. No wonder that these three opponents of Oromummaa (NAMA, EZEMA and OPP) agreed to be part of the Biltsigina regime for they agree mainly to suppress Oromiffa from being the primary working language of the federation. Actually, they targeted three areas to hinder Oromummaa from taking the leadership: Afaan Oromo from being federal language, Finfinne from being part of Oromia and the OLF from being freely active in Ethiopia. Now, every force in Ethiopia marching with NAMA, EZEMA and EPP is the opponent of Oromummaa and of course almost all Amhara elites belong here. Genuine Oromo nationalists and all organizations of other nations including Tegaru elites, who struggle for their own national liberation are by default proponents of Oromummaa. Their struggle against the domination of Amharanet makes them automatically friends of Oromo struggle. So, there is no surprise that Oromo nationalists supported Tegarus during their war against Biltsigina of Abiy Ahmed and that we now see tendency of Tegaru elites sympathising with promotion of Oromummaa, instead of preserving the domination of Aamharanet. It was clear that pro-Amharanet elites during the war wanted to eliminate Tegarunet and Oromummaa one by one. But the OLFites in the regime and TPLFits in the rebel came to their sense and reversed the proscess. Now, the pro-Amharanet elites are crying by seeing this natural alliance of Oromo and Tegaru nationalists against the Amharanet system of domination.
