In my forthcoming article I will provide Oromummaa’s Similarities with ISIS and its differences with Al-Qaida

The Hermitized Amhara elites do not see the danger with Oromummaa. They are a mirror image of each other. Both are prisoners of centuries past.

Video footage shows a priest, dressed in ritual garments, being forced to carry a dead hen around his neck while remaining silent, as he is paraded through the streets. The chants of "crucify him" by the ethnic Oromos witnessing the incident reflect a disturbing level of animosity and a regression to archaic methods of addressing grievances. Such events in the Oromiya region of Ethiopia have brought to light disturbing instances of abuse targeting Ethiopian Orthodox priests, particularly those belonging to the ethnic Amhara community. The priest's agony and humiliation are clear, highlighting the severity of the situation and reflecting the anti-Amhara sentiment prevalent within certain political circles.

The abuse directed at Orthodox ethnic Amhara priests stems from a political belief held by some Oromo nationalists who view Amharas as settler colonizers. According to this narrative, Amharas allegedly oppressed ethnic Oromos through the Ethiopian monarchy, the imposition of the Amharic language, and the dominance of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. Consequently, the Orthodox Church is perceived as a tool of colonization and is targeted for restructuring by Oromo dominance.

The abusive treatment of Orthodox priests not only highlights the escalating religious tensions but also reveals the deep-rooted ethnic divisions within Ethiopia. The chants of "crucify him" by the ethnic Oromos witnessing the incident reflect a disturbing level of animosity and a regression to archaic methods of addressing grievances. This situation is exacerbated by the anti-Amhara sentiment among certain political leaders, which is now filtering down to grassroots levels, perpetuating discrimination and fostering a hostile environment.

In addition to external pressures, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church faces internal challenges related to demands for ethnic-based restructuring. Some Oromo nationalists advocate for the appointment of an Oromo archbishop, mirroring the country's political Ethnic Federalism. However, this proposal has faced significant opposition, with many faithful emphasizing the unity of the church and opposing the disintegration of its leadership along ethnic lines.

The abuses against Orthodox Amhara priests are part of a broader campaign to create a homogenous Oromo land. Ethnic Amharas are subjected to forced evictions, massacres, and systemic tools designed to displace them from the capital city of Addis Ababa and other Oromiya regions. These actions perpetuate ethnic tensions and exacerbate the already fragile social fabric of the country.

The mistreatment of priests, coupled with the broader discriminatory practices against ethnic Amharas, underscores the urgent need for the international institutions to address these issues promptly.

So powerful! Her silence spoke louder than any words ‼️#AmharaGenocide

[Yuri Tadesse @tadesse_yuri]

In a bold display of dissent, Ethiopian female artist Filagot Abraham, has harnessed her creative expressions during the Gumma Award film festival, to protest against the authoritarian rule of Nobel Prize-winning Prime Minister @AbiyAhmedAli . A poignant image has emerged, capturing the spirit of their resistance, as an artist dons a dirtied wedding dress with a bullet piercing through her head. This symbolic representation serves to expose the mass killings and violence inflicted upon Ethiopian citizens by the state.

The artist's mouth is gagged with wire, symbolizing the suppression of freedom of speech and the stifling of dissent under the regime. Her visage is partially obscured by blood and dirt, offering a harrowing portrayal of the brutal massacres carried out by the government. Additionally, the artist has shaved off her hair, an act deeply rooted in Ethiopian culture to signify extreme condolence and agony in the face of loss. This act represents the pain and sorrow felt by the Ethiopian people due to the oppressive actions of the regime.

Such acts of protest are not taken lightly by the regime and its affiliates. The dissatisfaction with Abiy Ahmed's administration runs deep, with many accusing it of favoring the ethnic Oromo group, from which the prime minister himself hails. The powerful and emotive protest art serves as a stark reminder that the voices of the Ethiopian people cannot be silenced and that the struggle for freedom, justice, and equality continues.

The artist's bravery and determination to speak out against the government's repressive policies highlight the power of art as a vehicle for social change. By shedding light on the atrocities being committed and evoking strong emotions, these artists aim to awaken the conscience of the nation and the international community. As their work gains attention and garners support, it amplifies the call for a more inclusive and equitable Ethiopia, free from oppression and violence.

While the risks involved in such protests are considerable, these artists embody the resilient spirit of a people yearning for a better future. Their courageous actions inspire others to question authority, demand accountability, and fight for the fundamental rights and freedoms that every individual deserves. In a world where art has the ability to transcend borders and language barriers, their protest serves as a reminder that creativity can be a powerful catalyst for social transformation and a driving force behind the pursuit of justice.

Pen award winner, journalist and Ethiopian prominent opposition leader @eskinder_nega announced establishment of Amhara Popular Force to combat Ethnic-Based oppression and genocide.

In a bold move to confront the long-standing issue of ethnic-based oppression, a prominent political opposition leader Eskinder has recently taken decisive action by establishing a Amhara Popular Force aimed at bringing an end to this deeply rooted injustice.

By launching this initiative, Eskinder aims to challenge discriminatory practices, promote inclusivity, and foster social harmony within the nation in general.Ethnic-based attacks and displacement has caused immeasurable pain and perpetuate divisions among diverse populations in Ethiopia especially on ethnic Amharas.

1) Prevention of Ethnic Cleansing and massacres of Ethnic Amharas.

2) Combating arbitrary arrests and Ethnic-Based political detentions of ethnic Amharas .

3) Safeguarding Religious Institutions(Orthodox and Muslim) : The movement aims to preserve the freedom of worship and uphold the rights of religious communities to practice their faith without fear of persecution or suppression.

The Abiy Ahmed's regime of Ethiopia is threatening the church fathers to uncanonically ordain ethnic-oromo bishops. Orthodox Church is appostolic in its every ordinations. Ethnicity and political stand are not privileges to select individuals and ordain for the church services.
