The Tigree Declares War on Somalia

[Oromia]

Ethiopia 'ready for Islamist war'

 

The Islamists have made rapid advances this year

Ethiopia has made preparations for a conflict with the Islamists who control much of southern Somalia, Prime Minister Meles Zenawi has told MPs.

The Islamists have repeatedly declared Jihad, or Holy War on Ethiopia, accusing it of backing their rivals in Somalia's interim government.

 

"This group represents a clear threat," Mr Meles said in Ethiopia's first prime minister's question time.

 

Some fear a regional war, as Ethiopia's rival Eritrea is seen as pro-Islamist.

 

The Union of Islamic Courts has denied claims by Ethiopia and the Somali government that it has links to al-Qaeda.

 

Some Islamist leaders want Somalia to take control of Somali-speaking areas of Ethiopia and Kenya.

 

Declaration of war

 

Mr Meles said he did not believe the peaceful path of negotiations with the Union of Islamic Courts (UIC) was completely exhausted but he said they could not close their eyes or look the other way when the country was being attacked.

 

 

He said the government had completed preparations to defend itself against UIC attack.

 

Opposition politicians said a resolution put forward by the ruling party calling on the house to back whatever moves the government thought necessary amounted to a declaration of war on Somalia.

 

A UN report this month accused Ethiopia and Eritrea, among other countries, of breaking an international arms embargo by supplying arms to Somalia.

 

The UIC further accuses Ethiopia of having thousands of troops backing government forces in Somalia.

 

Mr Meles has denied these claims but admits to having hundreds of military trainers in Somalia.

 

Eritrea equally denies claims that it has sent troops and weapons to the UIC.

 

Somalia's interim government only controls a small patch of territory around the town of Baidoa.

Lets see who will fight for them

 

Last time the war between Ethio & Eri was fought by Oromos,somalis etc while the tigre were in the last row just waitng to claim victory and shoot any disserter who tried to flee.

 

this time though the nut headed dictator thinks that Oromos,somalis,Afar,Sidamo will be the cannon fodder.

 

he doest understand the fact that once they roundup innocent civlians throught the country and station them to the front line the story would be different.

 

Almost majority will dissert and surrender and work with ICU,OLF,ONLF etc

While the obese military officers of the Tigray would face their judgement day.

Mr Oromia,

 

It is year 2006, get up and be a man. Be a man and be counted. Don't expect the kid from Mukdisho to fight and die for you.

Ahmed-Guree, the Tigree does not need any help from any body. Here is the proof.

 

--- beat the crap of Amxaaree (1991)

--- beat the daylight out of the Oromo (1993)

--- woop the Somali *** (1996)

--- broke the limbs of Tigree Asmara (2000)

 

on deck, a sub-clan of land-occupiers. Sit tight.

Xabashi,what are u claiming?

^^^ I said Tigree won by TKO against his ennemies. And now he will TKO your Southern cousins. That is what I said.

[Captain Xalane]

Xabashi,

 

(1991)--- Amxaaro was beaten by Eritrea, Oromo, and Tigree

(1993)---Oromo was beaten by Eritrea and Tigree

(1996)--- No record of Somali defeat exists(2000)--- Amxaaro and Tigree were massacred by Eritrea

This time around you have no helper. Once Tigree is defeated all Tigree male would be reduced to eunchhood.

Oromia,

 

I am afraid you are a sad case for the oromo. Yes Tigray are good fighters, so are the somali or Afar too.

What made Tigray winners and so successful is they have the capacity to live in peace and good friendship with their immediate neighbors. OLF doesn't have a single member in all the provinces of oromia that border TIgray. The Afar and Tigray are inseparable and so are with the Amara (not the fake Amara in Addis Ababa).

Tigray are also exemplary in the harmony of different religions. Unlike your OLF, Moslems in Tigray are most active participants from ordinary fighter to the top most commanders.

 

Thats how they make you call Tigray Tigray for everything. 7% of the ethiopian population but have friends everywhere in that empire.

surprisingly the somali ethiopian is actually one of their best friends.

They both have similar culture of rebellion in the past and its a friendship that was established long ago. Most of the prominent federal officials in ethiopia from somali were also officials of WSLF and the somali democratic league.

 

Oromia,

why can't you unite the oromo before you jump hundreds of miles to mugadishu?

Why can't you be friends with the somali bordering you instead of always fighting against them in the service of mugadishu old warlords or new warlords under cover of religion.

[Oromia]

"Somali_Friend" and Xaabashi,

 

Let us resolve our problem on the ground. Either you will win or we will. So far you are killing us. But, God Willing, the tide will change. Then as promissed we will cut off your johnson from your baby to your old men. You are like cancer in the horn of africa. When the time comes the remainig of you will go to your relatives the Jews or to the West. Until then I have vowed not to speak to get into dialogue with you.

MUQDISHO: Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed:"Ethiopia waxana diyaar ula nahay Dagaal iyo heshiis tii ay doonayso"

Posted to the Web Nov 23, 19:15

 

 

Muqdisho (PP) - Guddoomiyaha Golaha fulinta ee Maxkamadaha Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed oo galabta ka hadlay hadalka uu jeediyay Ra'iisul wasaaraha Ethopia ayuu ku sheegay inay Maxkamaduhu diyaar ula yihiin Ethipoia wixii ay doonayso dagaal iyo Nabad.

 

"Waxaan diyaar la nahay Ethiopia Nabad iyo Colaad tii ay doonayso, waxaana caddeynayaan anigoo ah guddoomiyaha Maxkamadaha inaan haysanno wax walba oo tashiilaad ah oo loo baahan yahay haddii dagaal ay nagu soo qaaddo Ethiopia" ayuu yiri Guddoomiyaha Maxkamadha Sheekh Shariif Sheekh Axmed.

 

Hadalkaan uu jeediyay Sheekh Shariif ayaa ka dambeeyay kaddib markii Miles Zenawi uu baarlamaankiisa ka hor-sheegay maanta inay dagaal la galayaan Maxakamdaha oo ku dhawaaqay inay ku jahaadayaan Dowladda Ethiopia.

 

Zenawi ayaa u sheegay Xubnaha Baarlamaanka dalkiisa inay Maxkamaduhu yihiin khatar weyn oo ku soo fool leh dalkiisa ayna tahay inay difaacaan dalkiisa, taasina ay tahay arrin qaran oo cid diidi karta aanay jirin.

 

Sheekh Shariif ayaa hadalkiisa uu maanta jeediyay ee ku aaddan dagaal lala galo Ethiopia wuxuu u muuqday mid aan sidaa u sii xoog badnayn, waxaana hadalkaan uu u ekaa mid ay ku jirto naxariis iyo nabad jeceylnimo aan looga baran Maxkamadaha.

Xabash,somalia is not gonna be like the trenches of Eritrea whereby ur Tigre Generals adopted the ''Human wave'' tactics,and even so,they horribly suffered totalizing almost a whole brigade with out first capturing anything.Somalia is not that strong,but it will wc the invasion and adopt an insurgency case for ur troops.Thats when military might whithers.So we wait,and we'll see.Ur Generals are not fools,they understand whats at stake,and they will avoid an invasion as best as they can,even though they will heavily be depending on their Airforce,where they have Total air superiority.So talk,talk, for talk is cheap,and with out weighing matters,conclude that everything is like a mere punch.No sir it ain't so,but as said,we'll wait and see.

Oromia,

Do not give up hope. To my knowledge there is nothing more the Tigray moslems resent than other supposedly moslems telling them that they are less moslems, because they don't go to war against their fellow tigray christians.

As the prime minister of ethiopia mentioned it today in his parliament, Islam was accepted in Tigray and peacefully long before there was peace in today's Saudi Arabia and the acceptance of the religion.

 

I only commented to the fact that you are calling everything Tigray Tigray to show you, first of all its not true, and the best example I could give you was the somali who is the closest to tigray in population numbers as well as being a rebel.

Don't believe for a minute that the Afar would be friend with the Tigray because he is afraid or defeated. You need to realize the fact that the Afar and Tigray never fought against one another, and they have matching heritage of fighting, but always in support of each other.

The truth is on the ground for all to see. You may think that your statement may have currency in Mugadishu, but little do you realize that Colonel Aweye is not a new person even for the current government in ethiopia. He was after all one of the Ithad commanders and the terrorist acts that happened in Addis Ababa, including the attempted assassination of Husni Mubarek.

 

Don't take things personal. I am only pointing out to you what I know or what I think are the facts.

For example:

Your friends of CUD and Eritrea accuse Tigray of making ethiopia most Islamic friendly in its history.

You are going even overboard as to make the Tigray look like crusaders.

First of all these two accusations are so far apart, only one of them could be true or closethest to truth.
