#OromoProtests A Call for Boycot Measures
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Building on its gains so far, the Oromo protests movement is entering a new phase.The unrelenting killing and brutal repression of the regime continues unabated. This is calling for a change of tactics.

Accordingly, the Oromo protests is now calling for a week long, nation-wide boycott of markets and trade activities in this holiday season (of Ethiopian new year and Eid el-Arafaa).

The Bravest Olympian in Rio — Ethiopia’s Feyisa Lilesa Risks Death But Speaks Out About Killings of Oromo Protesters in Ethiopia After Earning Olympic Silver in Marathon

August 21, 2016 | Letsrun.com
RIO DE JANEIRO — Plenty of storylines emerged from the 2016 Olympic marathon. Eliud Kipchoge stamped himself as the greatest marathoner of all time by winning the race in 2:08:44. Galen Rupp earned the bronze medal to cap a stellar meet for the United States distance squad. But those are sporting achievements. What Ethiopia’s Feyisa Lilesa did today goes far beyond running.
As Lilesa crossed the finish line in 2:09:54 to earn the silver medal, he threw his hands above his head to form an “X”. Afterward, at the post-race press conference on a dais 50 yards from the marathon finish line, he spoke slow, powerful, chilling words, explaining the gesture was meant to demonstrate his solidarity with his Oromo people in Ethiopia. Amnesty International reports that at least 97 Oromo were killed inpeaceful anti-government protests earlier this month. This is the latest in a string of protests that Human Rights Watch estimates have resulted in over 400 deaths in all. In addition to the killings, many more have been arrested and detained by the government.

Ethiopia’s Bloody Crackdown: The Case for International Justice

August 18, 2016 | By Felix Horne, Senior Researcher, Horn of Africa

Ethiopian security forces gunned down at least 100 people a week ago in the bloodiest weekend in the ninth month of anti-government protests. Unlike previous protests, which have been largely confined to the Oromia region, the protests on August 6 and 7 were also in the northern Amhara region. Altogether at least 500 people have been killed since November and tens of thousands have been detained during the largely peaceful protests.

Ethiopia: TPLF to stage-manage and carry out a “terrorist” attack, intelligence sources warn

August 18, 2016 | By Engidu Woldie

Sources close to ESAT disclosed that the TPLF regime in Ethiopia is prepared to carry out deadly attacks that mimics the work of terrorists in cities across the nation and use that as an excuse to squash the growing popular resistance against the regime in the name of fighting Al Shabaab terrorists.
The sources said the TPLF intelligence and security has selected five locations – Adama, Dire Dawa, Gondar, Bahir Dar and Shashemene – to target public places and higher institutions of learning. The plan was to use Somali speaking individuals from the Ethiopian Somali region to carry out attacks at the selected locations, according to the sources.

OLF is Spirit

August 18, 2016 | By Mathias Gudina

OLF is Spirit, OLF is a Movement and OLF is 40+ million people: 

  • If you think OLF is dead, you are wrong because OLF lives in the hearts and minds of Oromo people.
  • If you think OFC is not OLF, you are wrong because OLF lives in OFC hearts and minds, 
  • If you think ODF is not OLF, again you are wrong, because it lives in ODF hearts and minds; 
  • If you think KWO is not OLF, you are wrong, because it lives in KWO hearts and minds; 
  • If you think OPDO is not OLF, you are wrong because majority of OPDO members have OLF in their hearts and minds.

THE OPDO CHALLENGE: DEFINING THE PROBLEM

August 10, 2016 | Ezekiel Gebissa, Special to Addis Standard

In the last two years, the Oromia region has gone through tumultuous times. New political realities are emerging. A new generation of Oromos has arisen demanding respect for constitutionally-guaranteed, universally-accepted human rights. The awakening of a new demand-bearing generation is a new political reality signifying the Oromo struggle for human dignity has now reached a stage of irreversibility. This is a new experience that gives hope to future generations of Oromos. Every generation has passed on ideas worth fighting for to the succeeding generation.

    Repeated Brutal Killings of Peaceful Protesters will definitely worsen the Political and Security Crises in Ethiopia

    August 09, 2016 | PAFD’s Statement on the current massacre of peaceful Oromo protesters by the TPLF regime


    PAFD’s Statement on the current massacre of peaceful Oromo protesters by the TPLF regime The long Oromo nation’s protest against the TPLF-led dictatorial regime was going on since November 12, 2015. The Oromo people is protesting across and in the whole districts in Oromia. The TPLF government repeatedly responded to the protesters in a brutal way using live ammunitions and has mercilessly killed over 670 Oromo so far. Hundreds have been wounded. Over 50, 000 Oromo were arrested and tortured in known and unknown prisons. There was unknown number of disappearances. Among the dead, the majority are university and high school students, very young children, pregnant women, and the elderly. The TPLF assassinating squad not only killed people on the streets, but in their homes during the night time by breaking into their doors. Many people were taken from their homes and arrested, then taken to police stations, military camps, concentration camps and unknown places. Similar scenarios are unfolding in Benshangul, Ogaden Somali, Gambella, Amhara, Sidama, Konso, South Omo valley and the rest of the country. Human rights organizations have widely reported on the protests in Oromia in order to make the world community aware of the real scope of the protests and the brutality of the Ethiopian regime. The EU and US congress have expressed their “concerns” about the killings, large scale mass arrests and tortures of Oromo protesters thereby to urge the Ethiopian government to end the systemic harassment, killings, exclusion and marginalization of the Oromo people from economic, political and social lives.

    Dozens killed as police use excessive force against peaceful protesters in Ethiopia

    August 09, 2016 | Amnesty International Press Release

    At least 97 people were killed and hundreds more injured when Ethiopian security forces fired live bullets at peaceful protesters across Oromia region over the weekend, according to credible sources who spoke to Amnesty International.
    Thousands of protesters turned out in Oromia and Amhara calling for political reform, justice and the rule of law. The worst bloodshed – which may amount to extrajudicial killings – took place in the northern city of Bahir Dar where at least 30 people were killed in one day.

    Killing Innocent Protesters is an Act of Terror :- Oromo Federalist Congress International Support Group (OFC-ISG)

    August 09, 2016 | A statement from Oromo Federalist Congress International Support Group (OFC-ISG)
    For immediate Release
    Following the online call of #OromoProtests activists for massive rallies on August 6, 2016, throughout Oromia, the Oromo people have turned out in large numbers in every corner of Oromia to demand justice and freedom. Massive rallies were and are taking places in almost all zonal and district capital cities of the Oromia region, in Finfinne and Dire Dawa. People have protested in more than 200 cities across Oromia and challenged the grip of the unrelenting brutal ruling regime in power in Ethiopia. The scale and intensity of the protests make this a historic day in the struggle of Oromo people in particular and the Ethiopian people in general. We salute the peaceful protesters for organizing such disciplined protests and for their bravery, determination, and sacrifices. Although we hoped and urged the Ethiopian government to allow people to freely protest, reports coming from Oromia are depicting a gloomy picture. So far, the Ethiopian government security forces have killed many innocent civilians and have wounded many more. The numbers of those beaten and rounded up from protest grounds and taken to known and unknown detention locations are countless.

    OPDO’s last chance to ditch TPLF and join ‪#‎OromoProtests

    August 05, 2016 | By Leta T. Bayissa

    Now, it is billed as possibly to be the greatest planned protests against the repressive regime in the history of our nation -- tomorrow, on August 6, 2016. I would like to urge OPDO to ditch TPLF and join #OromoProtests. As the countdown to the largest protests starts in earnest, OPDO should abandon the loose ends of the deal with TPLF and bolt out of EPRDF. I ask you to make an earthshaking pronouncement on Saturday and shake TPLF to its very innercore. Because for far too long you are keeping not only the wrong political company, but acquiescently obeying and serving a hostile regime towards Oromoness.

    We (Oromo) know all too well that you are never been comfortable with TPLF. It is more obvious that you are increasingly becoming uncomfortable with the coalition that TPLF only dominates which has left you mere spectators on the margins. It is naive and wrong for OPDO to stick with TPLF when the latter own members were often showing open contempt and disrespect for the former. The TPLF has been sending broadly clear messages that OPDOs are flowergirls in the EPRDF coalition matrix.
