Jawar do not lie, talk the fact in 12th and 13th centuries there was no single Gala, you came around 1500 and the name of Gala changed to Oromo in 1978.

The Oromo Muslimazation is simply the hate of Amhara the way black Americans changed their religion from Christianity to Muslim to be different. Amhara treatment of ethnics forced them to change their religion or adapted a different one from the evil Amhara religion.

Hmm.... :roll:

Not all Amharas are/were at fault because there are moderates as well as extremists among them. Some of these filthy extremists like Revelation, Maxi, Abaymado, etc. evil serpent extremists on this form and other places are the main examples of Judas Iscariot, cooking troubles day and night for the Amharas living in other regions among non amharas. These messengers of hate and doomsday preachers live and prosper on the sufferance of the ordinary people seeking peace and normal mutually respectful livings and lives.

For such evil trouble makers the securities and prosperity of the country does not count as far as they stay outside the country and eat fat cheeseburgers looking and enjoying the sufferance of the Ethiopian people.

Three Ethiopian churches burnt in Sidama, death toll reaches 60

Ethiopian churches have become the latest targets of radical Sidama etho-nationalist youth, also known as Ejeto.


Apart from attacking non-ethnic Sidamas, destruction of private properties has been one of the major hallmarks of radical ethnic Sidama Youth Movement (ejeto). Photo: from SM

July 22, 2019

Sidama Liberation Movement (SLM) says that about 60 people have been killed since July 18, 2019, according to a report by DW Amharic.

On Thursday, July 18, 2018, we reported about clashes between ethnic Sidama Youth – Ejeto – and government security forces. Death toll a day after the clash https://borkena.com/2019/07/19/20-dead- ... ed-attack/ was only about twenty.

In fact, there seems to be disagreement about the number of casualties. Sidama Zone police deputy head, Commander Desalegne, confirmed that people have been killed in the clash but the figure is “exaggerated”, as reported by DW.

BBC Amharic cited hospital officials on Monday to report that at least 25 people are killed due to the clash between Ethiopian security forces and what it called “activists in southern Ethiopia.”

However, the BBC report confirmed that other ethnic groups have been killed by “angry mobs” although the number of people killed from other ethnic group is not disclosed.

Government media outlet did not report about the number of casualties so far.

Ethnic Sidama is said to be in the neighborhood of 3.5 million which is about three percent of Ethiopia’s nearly 105 million populations.

The latest string of violence started on Thursday, July 18, 2019, when Sidama Youth groups (they are known in Sidama language as Ejeto) unilaterally declared Sidama Zone, which is currently part of Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Regional State, whose seat of government is Hawassa – a city over which Sidama ethno-nationalists are claiming exclusive ownership in just like what radical Oromo Ethno-nationalists have been demanding over Ethiopia’s capital – Addis Ababa, as a federal-state.

Why the “demand for ethnic-statehood” degenerated to violence that targeted non-Sidama ethnic communities, mainly ethnic-Amhara as some observers say, is unclear.

It is unclear as to who is to be held accountable for it or whether there is a political will on the part of the Federal and regional government to do so.

There are voices in social media that are calling for the arrest of Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region’s president, Million Matheos, who is believed to be an ardent Sidama ethno-nationalist himself, to be held accountable for all the lives lost and destruction of properties – mostly of non-ethnic Sidamas.

Some Sidama politicians declare that that has happened saddened them. Dejene Woldeamanuel is one of the pioneers of the Sidama Liberation Movement in the 1970’s and he currently lives in Switzerland.

In a remark during an interview with Voice of America Amharic service, he said:
What happened to those whom they think that they oppose regional statehood question and sometimes those who are from another area [of Ethiopia] who lived for generations is very saddening.
He confirmed that properties are looted in some places while there has been destruction of hard earned private properties.

Ethiopian churches burnt

Three Ethiopian churches in Sidama, Amaro and Burji diocese are burnt, reported DW Amharic. The source said that it has confirmed the news from the church authorities.

Doya Michael, Gesaba-Gebrekristos and Chiro Amanuel are the churches that got burned in the Sidama Dioceses of Ethiopian Orthodox Church (otherwise known as Ethiopian Church) according to Megabi Haymanot Kesis Netsanet Aklog told DW Amharic.

The attack was specifically launched against Ethiopian church. Some of the members of the church who tried to protect the church are reportedly killed.

A disturbing image of a murdered priest in the area which was circulating on social media has shocked many Ethiopians.

Several deacons had to run away to adjacent churches in Oromo region of Ethiopia following the attack on the three churches, according to DW Amharic.

Archbishop of the Sidama has ordered a week-long prayer since Sunday and a group from Ethiopian Religious Council is expected to travel to the scene to investigate the attack.

Ebola
i have to think this long before i answer it ... if i am revolution virgin i would say no body should die.. but revolution is ugly business people die. it is not la la land where no crime committed. up to now 60 people die ... to me how regrettable this is .. it show us the success of our fed system.. just imagine had we have no fed. system and Sidama want to break up using force how many people would have die 1 million and ten million become refugee and the city burn down to ground that is what we should compere we should never forget what happened in Eritrea independent struggle vs Sidama independent struggle ...we should count our blessing that Sidama doesnt ask total break away from Ethiopia .. i can't even understand, why someone opposed it ...why do u care if Sidama become state or zone ....

now when i come to the Churches industry complex ... number one the Church should not be involving in politics
second the Churches should not be involved in treason ... the Church is not betraying Sidama and line their loyalty with Amhara extremist ... Sidama Amhara should rise and fail with Sidama native.. if they were smart they would have stand with Sidama and demanded equal right .. even if we conducted legit referendum the Church will lose so why would u out yourself only to be attacked .. (i am not saying the attack is right)

in olden day the American founding father understood retaliation by slave master if the slave voted differently then the master.... so the founding father make the voting system hidden vote. so no slave master know what his slave voted for . even some 200 years ago understood about retaliation why this idiot Church think they can sabotage against the native and the native will watch them undone their independent march... (mind u i am not saying the killing was right) but ነገር ፈላጊ ቄስ በየገደሉ ይቀድሳል ። ሞቷን የተመኝች አይጥ፣ የደመት እፍንጫ ሄዳ ታሽታለች።

እነዚህ አናሳ ክርስታኖች አምን ነገር ይፈልጋሉ ፣ ግዜ እንደተቀየረ አያውቁም ። ሱማሌዎች አንድ አባባል አላቸው እስኪያልፍ የአባትህ ባርያ ይግዛህ ። ግዜው የሲዳማ መሆኑን ረሱ ። አሁንም የአማራ የበላይነት ያለ መሳልቸው የሞተውን ስርዓት ለማስራራት መዳከር ምን ይሉታል ። ኩኔኔ ከመግባት ግዟት አርጎ ወድ ሕዝብ መቀላቀል አይሻልም ነበር ውይ።

Moving alone, for sure the Amhara win the media war ... i want one Sidama reporter with smart phone to fight back .. all he have to do is go around and ask a simple question

example

name ... ababa
where did you born .. this is nice question it tell u if he is native or immigrant
if he said he is born in Sidama
immediately start speaking with him in Sidama language
if he said he cant speak Sidama language he is caught

now u repeat this with the Church priest .. the Church priest will tell u he was born her his church was 150 years old okay speak with him in Sidama if he speak he pass if he did not he fail.. if he pass the test then ask him did he give ቅድሴ በሲዳሞኛ if he said no, then why .. and wait and relax let him self distract

this is just warm up

the ask those Amhara if they support Sidama flag, Sidama being statehood go around and ask those Amhara very sensitive question if u find idiot stay on him.. dont even interpret....

this is what i want to see from Sidama but their march to statehood delayed but never interpreted....

to all አጄቶ dont sabotage your revolution u almost have it .. dont sabotage it turn back the clock ...

Eritrean war took us 17 years because of the Amhara governing system but under fed. system it took us only one day to air to clear
