The audacity of telling me I am getting dignity by linking myself to Harar? Am I the one "linking" myself to it or you? Oromo are like the cops who come too late in the movies and try to claim the deeds of the save simply because of authority of being cop, in your case simply because of being the peasants around Harar today.
You have
nothing to do with Imam Ahmed Gurey. You have
nothing to do with those campaigns and if you had nothing to do with Harar and its history during Imam Ahmed, you had
nothing to do with it before that or the Sheikh Abadir Muuse Warwaajecle who came way before Imam Ahmed.
The man who avenged Imam Ahmed's death, married his widow, killed the Abbysinian leader, built the walls around Harar, and fought to keep Oromo peasants from coming in is a Marehan Emir who was the nephew of Imam Ahmed Gurey
Who is he?
