One of the world´s most troublesome regions is Ogaden. Along with Darfur, Ogaden is one of the two places in the world whereby deliberate genocide was extensively practiced in the 3rd millennium. Ogaden, compared to Darfur, helps us draw several conclusions, due to the fact that both genocides have not drawn a crystal clear reaction and punishment.
Leaving the Darfur and Ogaden genocides unpunished, and executing Saddam Hussein is a shameful bias that irreversibly tarnishes the international community´s image. Despite his monstrous tyranny, Saddam Hussein did not perpetrate the acts carried out in Darfur by Al Bashir´s Pan-Arabist pestilence and in Ogaden by Meles Zenawi´s Ethiopianist cholera.

In Darfur, an effort of compromise was spearheaded by the criminal colonial elites of Paris, London and Washington; several Furi political leaders were naïve enough to believe that the Freemasonic gangsters who rule the world could possibly give a damn for the troubles of the mercilessly persecuted Furis.
The international community failed. The UN and the ICJ failed to put an end to the ongoing drama of the refugee nation of Furis who like all the rest have full right to freedom, independence, dignity, prosperity and a separate, national statehood.
This shows the correct path to the leaders of the Ogadeni nation, the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF). There cannot be any discussion with any American, English and French authority, because false promises, treachery and evilness are all one can expect from them. The only way to national liberation is the war of independence that should lead to acts of two sorts, military and diplomatic, with one supporting the other.
Not a single Amhara and Tigray administrative authority, police or soldier should be left alive on Ogaden; and the Amhara and Tigray gangsters sent from the capital to keep Ogaden under control must die upon sight of the Ogadeni borderline.
In this great effort of liberation, the Ogadenis are accompanied by the warmest feelings and the deepest wishes of all Africans who can be categorized to just two groups, namely Africans whose nations are deprived from national statehood, and African whose nations are ruled tyrannically.
The present calamitous situation of the African continent will change to the benefit of all the Africans with an Independent Republic of Ogaden present in the UN as the Voice of the Needy, the Oppressed, and the Terrorized. That´s why ONLF should realize that in their struggle for liberation they don´t fight only for Ogaden, but also for the entire African continent.
The victory of the Ogadenis will also be a Victory for the entire world, who can be categorized to just two groups, namely people deprived from national statehood or ruled tyrannically, and people enslaved to various types of sociopolitical, socioeconomic, cultural and educational misconceptions, deceitful schemes, and/or exploitation stratagems.
That is why Ogaden is of primordial importance for the entire world. An Independent Republic of Ogaden would shake the world, questioning the nature and challenging the existence of the immoral, insensitive and inhumane Western mindset and lifestyle that permit people to waste money in luxuries when hundreds of millions of people are starving and living in undeserved conditions.
In the fight for Liberation and Freedom from any political tyranny and from any sociopolitical deception, all the Ogadenis, all the Africans, and all the people worldwide can find an exemplary embodiment of human integrity, personal dignity, military ardor, and spiritual brilliance in the Great Somali King Ahmed ibn Ibrahim who 500 years ago led the Somalis to an apex, the barbaric Abyssinians to dispersion, and the criminal Portuguese colonials from defeat to disarray. His days will soon come back as an African Renaissance!
The great historical annal Futuh al Habasha (the Conquest of Abyssinia), written in Arabic, is the main historical source about King Ahmed ibn Ibrahim, his victory over the barbaric and heinous kingdom of the Abyssinians, and his epic battles against the Portuguese colonials. It is now available for online reading: http://community.webshots.com/user/SomaliConquestofAbyssinia
As it is necessary for all Africans and for all the people worldwide to learn how the Ogadenis see themselves, describe their current troubles and persecution, and narrate their History, I republish herewith a concise presentation that I noticed in one of the numerous Ogadeni blogs that have emerged in the blogo-sphere, giving one more dimension to the national struggle for the Liberation of Ogaden. The original credit is to be given to the principal Ogadeni portal www.Ogaden.com.
