27 nov. 2009 – Harar Ethiopia According to information received by The Indian Ocean Newsletter, a deadly skirmish occurred on 16 November in a place known as Jaketa, situated between Harar and Babile in the east of Ethiopia. It pitted government soldiers of the South Eastern Command against unidentified rebel forces and is believed to have made several tens of victims among the government troops. Many of the wounded soldiers were treated at the Hiwot Fana Hospital and other hospitals in Harar.
Although no organisation has yet officially claimed responsibility for this action, it is highly likely that those involved were Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) rebels, the most active group in this region. However, according to some witnesses, several of these attackers spoke to each other in the Amhara language, which is not so common in the ranks of the ONLF. They may have been instructors from outside this region of Ethiopia. This military confrontation occurred after arms were stolen in Harar at the beginning of the month, a theft attributed to ONLF rebels

The so called woyane soldgers who brought misery and darkness in the name of liberation should get a good lesson.
Meless and his co. Should be squeezed as a macdonald bug mac between the election and armed struggle.

Although it is an action by brave Ethiopians, the action (War against Weyanne) is shared by all non-Weyannes, as it blocked other peaceful means!
We all Ethiopians are one against Weyanne!-
-a murderer,
-divisive,
-corrupt, and endangered the people for hunger and misery life
-blocked all alternatives for other Ethiopians.
Weyanne above all destroyed our UNITY!
Unity First

The report is baseless and far from the truth.Our troops not only crushed down the ONLF with in our country,they are hunting them down in Somalia to finish them once and for all.They are nothing but a backward nomads who want to shove their primitive ideology in our throat.If they don’t want to live with peace,then it is a right thing to give these primitive who call themselves Arab a one way camel ride back to where they came from.
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS.

Yohannes mad dog,
It is all true. they are going to get you and others pests like you.
go hide in your ant hole and take Washera the peedoofile with you.
Somalis don’t joke they will cut you up, slice you down and barbecue
your twiggy body and hang it on a tree.
