To the Leaders of OLF Nov. 27, 2012
Dear Friends and Compatriots,
We have welcomed warmly the good news of reconciliation and unity made
between OLF-SHG and OLF-QC which was awaited long enthusiastically by
all Oromo. We are very grateful to the leaders of both sides for the
positive response they made to the wishes and demands of
reconciliation posed to them by their people. It is a good start and
we would wish them all the best in reaching the decisive and
victorious destiny together.
Mistakes were done, and it is humane to make mistakes for a person
who works. Mistake is said to be a best teacher for those who are
willing to learn from it. By learning from the past mistake and
committing oneself not to repeat the same mistake is a wise man’s
character, but persisting in it is deadly foolishness Mind you, even
wandering beasts and flying birds do not fall into the same trap.
There are no charges for making mistakes but malice like that of your
ex-comrades of the so called ODF which passes normality and becomes
inexcusable in its any measurement.
As you have come to agreement to iron out all the problems that
hindered the liberation of our nation for long period of time, it is
obvious that there could be hurdles to be removed away in order to
fully implement the reconciliation process. That will not panic us at
all, because there is always a black sheep in every flock and prickle
in any field. What matters most is your determination and zeal to
bring the agreement to a full fledged success.
Having said that, we understand that you have a lot to do and a long
way to travel to bring about a true and complete oneness. To do this
you have to turn back and contemplate on the first day you left all
your comfort zones to join the struggle for liberation of your nation,
your determination, your commitment, your courage and your willingness
to die for this noble cause. Again, you remember your sufferings, your
thirst, your hunger and your destitute lives in the jungle of Oromia.
Those of you who suffered an inhuman treatment in the prisons of our
enemy at different levels and places for the cause of your people,
forget not what happened to you when you are dealing with the
reconciliation you have made with one another. You remember your dear
comrades who sacrificed their lives for this big nation in front of
your sights in battle fields, in prison, on fields and streets of
their mother land. Remember your comrades and fellow Oromos who are
suffering behind prison bars for this cause, think of those who are
tortured and persecuted by the brutal and ruthless Habasha government.
Think of these innocent Oromos uprooted from their own land thrown
away and facing an indescribable plights.
What impression and feeling does the above paragraph give you? Losing
hope or more determination to renew your pledge to your people? The
latter is the better. It is clear that the above paragraph brings bad
and hardly good memories back to minds in which our human entities are
highly tested: they detect us to tell even if we are really competent
human beings and people with determination and guts: as we are having
such devastating and tragic history of being a majority in everything,
but still subjugated, oppressed, exploited and completely destroyed by
a minority.
Once again, we congratulate you for now as two sides of a coin and be
delighted most to call you as a would-be one OLF with deeply touched
hearts and joyous feelings. At last not least, as of the day you came
to your mind to serve and save your nation as one body and blood, and
lead us towards common goal, we also would like to renew and express
our commitment to do our shares in anyway possible and stand by your
side to accomplish the job. No more bystanders, but partakers.
