Look at this filith.

You ain't wrong. Let me tag @seldiboy so he can get a reality check. Amharas are no different from Oromos. Look at their entitlement attitudes, especially for someone who was advocating against ethnic federalism and defending your fellow Amharas. Let me prove you wrong. Look at the most influential Amhara association came out with. *Very boldly*.

@Qeelbax

If I remember didn’t Tigray or Tigrinya or whatever @seldiboy came from help build up Abyssinia from the ground up? Amhara are kinda like their Oromos then. Oromos are taking a page out of Amhara’s book to do some expansion. But why go for places like desert in Somalia or mountainous Amhara lands when they could push south and get better farm land?

It's the opposite. He's an Eritrean and fought against the same Amharas he's defending just like us, laakin hadda inaaga ayuu noo jeesaday marku wadan gooni helay.

As far as expanding into Somali land, it's more strategically. Remember, the end goal is to reach the coasts by any means, so it makes you wonder.

Somalis truly are blessed with it comes to our coastline.

Somalis truly are blessed with it comes to our coastline.

Exactly, and the fact that we aren’t properly maximizing it, is just beyond me.

While Ethiopia are begging for a tiny strip of coastline. Just a seaport alone, would be sufficient for them.

On another note, your people need to stop SL from selling themselves just for short term gains. Ethiopia owns 19% of Berbera port. Don’t let it reach to the Sri Lanka scenario where the Chinese have taken completely over their ports, in a similar manner.

Isn’t Somaliland buying back the shares though? Lol they won’t have 19% for long

SL said that they will take over/seize the Ethiopian shares, due to some commitment issues on the Ethiopian side recently. But I am not sure if it has happened as of yet or where they currently stand. I was just pointing out the routes Ethiopia will go to reach eastwards.

They are pushing south. Right into somali territory. they don’t just claim Dir Dhabo and Harar, but they go even further into Dir land. They are stealing Moyale and Imi from us. they want more access to the Shabelle river. You see that extra part outside of Dir Dhabo they claim, yeah that’s Jijiga Territory. If Dir Dhabo wasn’t bad enough, they want Jijiga too. They’re really coming for our capital in Galbeed.

that skinny part they claim inbetween Amhara, Tigray and Afar? That’s Amhara, Tigray and Afar territory. How do you even get to Tigray when there’s two ethnic groups in between them? These people are mad. They won’t leave the Southern Peoples territory alone either. They already swallowed half of Benshungul Region to their left.

The tiny territory between Amhara and Tigray is majority Oromo. Its called Oromo zone in the Amhara kilil.

They expanded onto that territory just like they did to Harar. Do you see that Argobba land? Yeah the Argobba people are considered an endangered ethnic group. They were neighbors with Hararis and were long time trading partners with Somalis. Now all they have is a little territory in the Amhara region.

They are believed to be the first to accept Islam in East Africa and vanguards of spreading Islam to the Horners. My hypothesis is that Prophet Muhammed saw and the Ahlul Bayt encountered the Argobbas. My Allah swt bless them.

All of the land, the Oromo state is currently contesting along most of our (DDS) borders are farming land. Especially in Fafan zone (close to Jigjiga) where I come from. Even looking at that expansionist map that Qeelbaax posted, the green area stretches well into most of Sitti and Fafan (northern DDS), the two most fertile regions in not just DDS but all of Somaliweyn.

In fact, they are exploiting the resources there as well. @Qeelbax You mentioned river, they are building a massive dam in my home region (*literally inside DDS*), the source of water for 3/4 of all DDS residents. Which has lead to fightings, and involvement of Oromo militias. A Somali regional minister was even fired for speaking out about the deteriorating situation, caused by the Oromo state.

Here's an article, and I highlighted key parts of it.

Addis Abeba – Residents say at least three civilians were killed and 12 more wee severely injured in recent clashes that flared between armed militias from the Oromia region and residents of the neighboring Somali region in the border area.

According to residents from the Somali side the clashes started on Friday, 13 January when workers who are commissioned by the government of Oromia region started executing construction of a dam in the border area of Marar Kebele, which the residents say is located inside Tulu Guled district of Fafan zone in the Somali regional state.

The construction work, taking place not far from Jigjiga, the capital of Somali region, faced rejections from the local residents who disputed the authority of the Oromia regional state government to unilaterally construct a dam inside Somali region.

A senior official close to the matter and who requested anonymity told Addis Standard that consensus was reached between officials from the Oromia and Somali regions to pause the construction of the dam while discussions were ongoing on the impacts of the dam on local communities from both sides. But the construction of the dam went on under circumstances that are not clear.

Muhiaden Haji Abib, an elderly from the Somali community in Marar kebele, told Addis Standard that “the [dam] project is used as a pretext by the Oromia region to expand its territories into the Somali region.”

He said that three civilians were killed and 12 others were severely injured by the Oromia militia on 13 January’s incident. Other reports by and activists from Somali region put the number of causalities as high as 16.

The project to construct a dam in the area was announced by Oromia regional state government six months ago, Muhiaden said, but from the get go, “we have expressed our concerns to the authorities of the Somalia region and other stakeholders that such move could bring a dispute between the regional states.”

Commander Ali Samire Sigas, Head of Border Affairs and Conflict Resolution Bureau of the Somali regional State, in his briefing to local journalists, on Tuesday, accused politicians from the Oromia region for working to expand territories near border areas, despite having brotherly relations with the Oromo people.

In criticizing officials from the Oromia region Ali said they were trying to build a dam in Marar Kebele which is inside the territory of the Somali region without agreement with Somali regional government or consultations with the local community.

He also noted that militias from the Oromia region killed civilians and injured many others following the clashes over the construction of the dam, and added that the construction has already displaced more than 2000 households of Somali communities from the area.

However, the Somali regional state communication bureau stated that Commander Ali was relieved of his duties due to his inability to fulfill his responsibilities, and that the statement he gave to the media was without legally handing over the responsibilities that were given to him after he was relieved of his duties.

According to residents who spoke with Addis Standard, senior officials from the Oromia region visited the construction site of the dam a few weeks ago, raising tension among the residents of Marar Kebele and eventually leading to clashes with armed militias from Oromia region.

A communications officer from the Oromia Region Communication Bureau told Addis Standard that he doesn’t have any information in connection to the clashes.

In December last year, two people were killed and seven others were severely injured in Shilabo district of Korahe zone, in the Somali regional state, in a dispute after local authorities attempted to commence water borehole drilling. AS
