HRW Report on Ogaden, The Domino Effect - Oromos and Sidamas Seeking Secession, Independence

The publication of the Human Rights Watch (HRW) Report on Ogaden is about to create a domino effect, triggering the ultimate and most desired dissolution of Africa’s, and the world’s, most repugnant and most barbaric tyranny.

In a solemn declaration, Sidamas and Oromos, represented respectively by the Sidama National Liberation Organization and the Front for Independence of Oromia, jointly express their recognition to HRW, their solidarity with the brutally and inhumanly tyrannized nation of the Ogadenis, and their passionate commitment to both, the Oromos’ and the Sidamas’ National Struggle for Liberation and Independence.

In fact, there is an undeniably revolutionary element in the HRW comprehensive and objective Report on Ogaden. It does not reflect the Report’s pertinent call on Abyssinia’s donors to stop short of financing the world’s most criminal and most racist regime of the Amhara and Tigray gangsters. It has little to do with the extensive enumeration of the appalling Amhara and Tigray practices geared to empty Ogaden, by physically eliminating its entire population.

Death to the Racist, Fabricated Notion of the "Ethiopian Nation"

The truly groundbreaking element contained in the HRW Report on Ogaden is the recognition of the Ogadenis as a separate nation, subjugated and tyrannized by the illegal rulers of Abyssinia (fallaciously and criminally re-baptized ‘Ethiopia’).

In doing so, the HRW gives a lethal hit to the criminal, racist theory of the Amhara and Tigray Abyssinian Monophysitic elites according to which all the nations of the country supposedly constitute one nation, the peremptorily fabricated "Nation of Ethiopia".

By recognizing the Ogadenis as an individual nation, the HRW Report on Ogaden automatically recognizes as individual nations the Oromos, the Sidamas, the Afars, the Kaffas, the Shekachos, the Kambatas, the Anuak, the Wolayitas, the Berta, the Shinasha, the Gumuz, and the Agaws.

In the same way Ogaden has been occupied under clear terms of colonial imperialism and severe violation of the indigenous nation’s will, all the aforementioned nations’ lands have been militarily invaded, illegally annexed, and brutally colonized under extremely critical terms of physical and spiritual genocide.

No to Amharanized Anthropoids of the Ethiopian Racist Fabric

The peak of the East African genocide, imposed over the aforementioned dozen of nations, is the false name of ‘Ethiopia’ – fabricated on purpose to serve as that of an inexistent nation that would come to inception, following the absorption, the assimilation and the subsequent elimination, either physical of spiritual, of all the aforementioned individual nations.

Stripped from their national and cultural autonomy, which is the most sacrosanct element in the History of the Mankind, the depersonalized masses of the aforementioned nations would be the amharanized anthropoids used as tools for the ultimate imposition of the criminal and inhuman Amhara imperialism, its leaders and adepts.

In fact, the scandalous creation of the pseudo-term ‘Ethiopian Nation’ does not only stir indignation for the vicious, malignant and deliberate distortion of History perpetrated by the Africans Hitlers, the Monophysitic Amhara and Tigray elites of Abyssinia. It is true that Ethiopia is an Ancient Greek and Latin term that was attributed to the Kushitic populations of the Ancient Kushitic nations in the area of today’s Sudan.

The name of ‘Ethiopia’ has nothing to do with the Amhara and Tigray Abyssinians of today, and their ancestors, who moved from Yemen to settle in the East African coast and part of the inland. They were never ‘Ethiopians’, they always fought against the true Ethiopians, and they always felt marginal and secondary to the Kushitic Ethiopians.

This negative stance is found at the origin of the venomous Abyssinian Anti-Ethiopian odium which gave birth – after the 19th century Abyssinian invasions of the vast Kushitic lands – to revengeful attitude and willingness to exterminate the Eastern African nations by invading, massacring and absorbing them. However, the historical forgery is only the first small step of a huge, antihuman and anti-African plan; the above mentioned attitude is the epicenter of the problem.

The most appalling aspect of the African Genocide is the outrageous participation of two entire nations, the Amhara and the Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinians, in the criminal deeds and plans of their tyrannical, cruel and barbaric rulers that targeted the very existence of a dozen of innocent, peaceful and wealthy African nations.

Still today, not a single humanist Amhara and Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinian intellectual or politician managed to come up with a denunciation of, and an apology for, the genocides – inhumanly envisioned, carefully planned, and mercilessly perpetrated – of the aforementioned African nations. This shows the unique extent of the problem, which is far more crucial for the existence of the Mankind than the threat emanated from Hitler’s Germany.

To these Amhara and the Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinians’ plans the HRW Report gives a lethal hit by taking for granted the individuality and the distinctiveness of the Ogadeni nation – and by extension to all the rest. This irrevocable and inalienable national identity of the Ogadenis is threatened by the Abyssinian tyranny, the Report says.

Tumescent ‘Ethiopia’

Before any other repercussion, the HRW Report heralds a new era of liberation struggles in East Africa that will bring about the urgently needed, definite and irreversible demolition of the Mother of Genocides – Fake ‘Ethiopia’.

It is not odd that this country is the world’s poorest, most tangential, and most undeveloped entity; all the natural resources, the quasi-totality of the property of the subjugated nations has been embezzled, usurped, stolen by the fabricators of the pseudo-‘Ethiopia’ fallacy, all those who intend to eradicate the aforementioned, individual African nations.

In fact, it is a simple as that; by envisioning the submission and the expropriation of so wealthy natural resources from their legitimate proprietors, the subjugated nations, the Amhara and Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinians thought that they ended the problem of their own poverty and penury.

The threatening starvation is the consequence of a double theft (material and spiritual); the tyrannical Amhara and the Tigray Monophysitic Abyssinians have stolen the subjugated nations’ natural resources (material theft) because they also tried to deprive them of their own - cultural, religious, historical and national – identity (spiritual theft).

And if the Ogadenis have suffered as much as the valuable HRW Report tells us, the top reason for this is that the Ogadenis had not been viewed as an individual nation by the rulers and the followers of Tumescent ‘Ethiopia’.

I will publish here integrally the FIO and SNLO Joint Statement, as it consists in the first of many similar reactions to the HRW Report. I find it necessary to underscore the importance of the fraternal cooperation among the tyrannized and dispossessed nations of Abyssinia; in this regard too, the Joint Statement is exemplary, an authentic proof of national identity and human solidarity against the Abyssinian perfidy – Africa’s most ominous fracas.

Oromos and Sidamas under Abyssinian Barbaric Colonial Regime denounce Abyssinia's Crimes against humanity; strengthen our solidarity with Ogaden Somali-our Kushitic brothers and sisters!

Ignorant Barbaric Abyssinian Regime is the Only Remaining Colonial Relic

The most barbaric and demoralizing regime of our time; the Abyssinian colonial regime is the only remaining colonial residue of the planet that keeps dehumanising other nations’ fellow human beings. Nations of the empire under successive Abyssinian regimes continue to be treated in a degrading manner at an inconceivable scale that is incomprehensible for any human being. The subjugated nations' populations in this colonial empire are still regarded as virtual commodities and are consequently forced to accept that they are not entitled to the privileges that their colonisers are enjoying in their lands.

The subjugated nations' populations under the present Abyssinian regime are also obliged to believe that they are cursed by the Creator to live such an agonizing life in the 21st century. The populations of the colonized nations have nothing in their hands. The agricultural production of their lands is exploited quasi-exclusively by the colonial settlers and their loyalists, while the rightful beneficiaries, the populations of the colonized nations, are left to languish in ultra poverty, without political, economic, cultural, and social representations, in their ever green lands that have the possibility to produce far more.

We know of no one without identity and name that signifies who they are and to whom they belong. National pride and dignity consists in basic rights of individuals and nations; people have indeed the right to be proud of their own identities, as individuals and as nations. These are the rights and the privileges that the nations under the decaying Abyssinian colonial relic have been denied from. Nations such as the Sidamas, the Oromos, the Ogadeni Somalis, the Afars, the Kambatas, the Hadiyas, the Wolyitas, the Shinashas, the Gedeos, the Burjiis, the Kefas, the Sheekichos, the Surinama, the Agnuak, the Hammer, and the rest have never been allowed to live in the way they desired and to practice their social and cultural traditions. In the 21st century, while the global community is moving at great speed to the benefit of the humanity, the barbaric Abyssinian regime functions as Medieval times’ authority. Their way of thinking reflects structures existing only before 400 years; their mentality is absolutely ignorant.

In fact, the successive Abyssinian regimes kept treating their subjects with 4-century old brutal manners while the global community has persistently turned a blind eye. More specifically, the Western powers’, namely the US’, the UK’s and the EU's, silence – at a moment such a tragic catastrophe is being unfolded in many various ways, involving economic disaster, socio-cultural and physical genocide (meticulously executed as based on premeditated action plans) –, remains the saddest and darkest face of the worlds history. China, as the emerging superpower, is also playing a significantly negative role by covertly or ostensibly supporting the regime in order to promote its economic interest in that part of the world, despite the ordeals caused to all the subjugated nations by the Abyssinian regime of Meles Zenawi.

June 12, 2008's Nairobi Report on Crimes against Humanity committed by the Abyssinian Regime against the Ogaden Somali people

The Report published the Human Rights Watch (HRW) in Nairobi, on June 12, 2008 regarding the crimes against humanity that have been perpetrated against the Ogaden Somali people by the Meles regime consists in one of the greatest reassurances that the subjugated nations under the Abyssinian regimes have ever received. The report demonstrates to people allover the world who stick to their values and principles that there are many who greatly value Humanity and staunchly support the Basic Rights and Freedoms to which all Humans are entitled, despite the guilty silence and the hypocritical stance of the world’s great powers.

The report has been elaborated with pertinent methodology, scrupulous care, and meticulous work, as the HRW staff scrutinized extensively all reported cases. The document serves as a formidable argument for future reference. It also substantiates various claims made by several liberation movements, including FIO, SNLO, OLF, and SLF, as well as international humanitarian organizations against the successive barbaric Abyssinian regimes that were maintained in power due to the very suffering of the nations ruled under their backward economic and socio-political policies. The HRW Report on Ogaden also helps expose the true face of the Abyssinian tyranny - decorated as democracy – and its barbaric nature.

As the HRW Report does play a pivotal role in fully exposing the brutal regime's crimes against humanity, it is a due obligation for all the nations under the Abyssinian barbaric regime to congratulate HRW for their excellent, objective and impartial work.

The diverse nations of the Oromos, the Sidamas, the Kefas, the Shekschos, the Wolayita, the Afars, the Benshangul Gumuzi nations, the Agnuak and all the other subjugated nations feel highly indebted for the effort deployed and the work done on behalf of voiceless and helpless civilians who have been mercilessly brutalized by the Meles regime in the Ogaden Somali province in particular, and in all the other parts of the colonial empire in general.

The HRW vigorous research has been focused on fact-finding, and its publication left the regime virtually naked!!

The subjugated nations under the Abyssinian empire express their recognition to the dedicated HRW professionals who have shown great courage to defend Humanity; to be more vigilant and more informative as regards other parts of the Abyssinian colonial empire and to unveil other crimes against humanity committed in the vast lands of Oromia, Sidama, Afar, Wolayita, Gambella, Hadiya, Kambata, Burji, Gedeo, and the rest part of the empire further research and reports may be needed.

The regime continues suppressing every democratic movement; there is no freedom of expression throughout the colonial empire. People belonging to the subjugated nations are being dehumanized in their own fatherlands while the colonizers keep expropriating their natural resources.

The need to widen the horizon of the research that exposed the hidden face of the Meles regime to other regions is great; the conclusions of further research will be crucially important as continued effort and fact finding will unveil a great number of Crimes against Humanity perpetrated in all the other parts of the colonial empire of Abyssinia.

Therefore, the SNLO and FIO on behalf of the Oromo and the Sidama nations:

Congratulate the HRW for their excellent work in defending Humanity and ask them to widen their horizon into most parts of the empire to further investigate about Crimes against Humanity carried out there.

Congratulate the Ogadeni Somali people and their Liberation Front that has shaken the foundations of the Abyssinian regime with their indefatigable sense of spirit, and fight.

Strengthen our unity with the Ogaden Somali National Liberation Front.

Also wish the Ogaden Somali nation all the best in their rewarding endeavour to the date of liberation!

Strongly condemn the criminal acts of the Meles regime and ask the International Court of Justice to hold Meles and his regime accountable for perpetrated Crimes against Humanity.

++++

Urge the nations of the colonial empire to raise their arms against the inhumanity of the Abyssinian criminal regime of Meles with the all possible means and weapons.

Urge the Diaspora community of the subjugated nations to take the case of their nations suffering under Abyssinian regime with detailed documents to the international Human Rights organizations including the HRW, AI, etc. and their parliament members wherever they live.

Victory and Liberation to all Nations under Abyssinian Colonial yoke!!
