Inspiring Elders and the Irrelevance of ONLF

WardheerNews Editorial

April 11, 2006

 

Seeing the pictures and reading the headlines about the visit of the elders of the Somali National State, Ethiopia, to London, England, was all the more inspiring and uplifting. For those who did not follow the not-so short history of how the elders came to this point, the news sounded too good to be true, and could have passed as April Fools’ Day jock. But it was not! Elders of the Somali Region welcomed At London's Heathrow Airport by the Somali National State's Community in Britain

MM, can you enlighten me of the reasons they call that state a "tribal state" when in fact it is a Somali state region of Ethiopia.

 

Don't you think that title is totally primitive state title? Why can't they realize of its political ramifications.

 

If you look at the history of the North of Somalia, There used to be tribal titles in every territory, given by the English , but when the modern state of Somalia was created, all of those tribal titles were gotten rid of.

 

The Somali state region of Ethiopia, bearing this title as such, is more of a uniter than a divider like the "tribal state" some of their leaders constantly employ when refering to the region.

An excellent editorial from Wardheernews as always. It is actually in the ONLF's interest to listen to reason or remain in their clannish cave.

Dear Mr. Caamir, The heydays of ONLF are numbered, and it is them who really need to spearhead this endeavor.

WardheerNews editorial sounds fair and balanced, however see attached the response from Ogden online as below

 

"while it is not the policy of the ****** editorial board to dignify propaganda spewed by colonial or clannish mouth-pieces with a response, however we are compelled to shed some light on the contradictions, and the incomprehensible arguments put forth by Wardheer news about the said objectives of the ‘elders’ arrival in both UK and USA".
