ONLF and WSLF
- Thread starter seldiboy
- Start date
Wslf were founded by siad bare and took part of 1977 war.
Onlf was formed after many ogadens felt siad bare was not serious in libration after he made peace deal with mingustu . In 1988 becos siad bare and mingustu both were on the brink of colapse.
Onlf is technicaly ogaden. Imo.
The name change pissed off the non-Ogadens in galbeed. They should've stuck to WSLF / West Somalia liberation front.
Ogadens have failed imo can u imagine ogaden have nore population than entire eriterea
.Bro they failed. Let be honest
The non ogaden population is negligible

Ehh I wouldn't write off the Somalis in Galbeed like that. There was a long road to actualisation of the latter cause that wouldn't have been able to be fostered in Galbeed for a number of reasons out of their control.Ogadens have failed imo can u imagine ogaden have nore population than entire eriterea

About 5-10%. Half of Eritrea is Muslim though.
Do u think oromos or amharas who is more dengerous
The WSLF was a united front for liberation in western Somalia while the ONLF is a more clan-based liberation group from Ethiopian occupation. The WSLF emerged during the 1977 war and then collapsed while the ONLF emerged in the 1980s and is more or less dead today.

Amharas by a country mile. Oromos are inept ethnocentrists while Amharas are die-heart Ethiopianists.

Have a read through this interesting pdf btw, i've sent you one or two passages from this, to understand conflict with Oromia and SRS, how Babile and Mieso act as both shared cities and districts, for a short brief on the pdf, conflict with Oromo started after 1991 Derg collapse, prior to 1991 during Derg and Selassie times Hawiye, Oromos and Somalis worked together as WSLF and SALF, after 1991 ethnic federalism was founded and 9 parties were created, Hawiye were mainly part of DUP which merged with ESDL which was like a shadow Irir party of several groups, ESDL stands for Ethiopian Somali Democratic League and called "Leego" in short, it was quite influential in the first four years after Derg collapse because it won majority seats after some ONLF didn't participate in elections, then gradual wider conflict with Oromo and Afar erode the unity and party progress, Hawiye kept their militia from WSLF Ahmed Gurey Front days under the new ESDL/DUP banner, conflict ranged from low volume in the early 90s, to skirmishes in the late 90s before reaching its peak in 2004 with hundreds of houses getting burnt and dozens of federal police and people killed, things had worn down over time as Hawiye used their peace making offices and networks to reduce cross border and inter clan conflict, there is even a mention of a intra Karanle conflict in 1989 between Maru and Ciye mentioned in here
^This is the ESDL Party aka Leego, the Karanle militia that have been fighting since the 80s and 90s led by Muxyadiin Xaydar a Gidir Karanle against Oromos use this banner
