Yes indeed your should stick to something you understand because your understanding of Ethiopia is very laughable.
The so called Oromo secession is nothing but small group that long declined. They gained support from some Hararghe Oromo and the Borana. They used to hide in Kenya but after on several occasions Ethiopia invaded Kenya-----Kenya now wants to seal the border. It wants Ethiopian business instead.
Tuesday 08 December 2015
Kenya and Ethiopia have signed a 185-million-euro deal to end conflict along their common border and spur development. The leaders of both countries promised that the deal would create jobs, reduce poverty and foster trade in their restive borderlands, where conflict has intensified in recent years.
Once Kenya is sealed there is no more separatist Oromo hideout. RIP to the small OLF group.
What Oromo want instead is more representation and control over their resources. This is not an issue for Oromo and Amhara but Tigrai and Oromo.
Amhara have enough wealth on their own and do not feel the need to grab Oromo wealth. But Tigray on the other hand is largely barren land with no natural resources. So they are looting Oromo, Gambella and Amhara while in power. There is where the current rift stems from.
The Gambella secession is going to die as well since South Sudan became an independent state and now it's clear the Nuer in Gambella and parts of South Sudan cannot co-exist with the Dinka. It is best for them to remain in the union and get protection from Addis Ababa. The Dinka are backed by Uganda and want to encroach into Gambella resources and South Sudanese oil.
Ethiopia also feels South Sudan should run its oil pipeline via Ethiopia to Djibouti so it can reduce the cost of its own future pipelines such as that one from Ogaden basin.
Ethiopia long moved on from Eritrea but wants economically isolated to ensure Eritrea is not still funding the last ONLF, OLF militia men or even the opposition G7 and the Tigray-backed TPDM.
But no Ethiopian believes in the country becoming failed state like your failed Banana Republic.
Arabs are no longer threat to Ethiopia. They all investing heavily in Ethiopia, Sudan is part of the dam project, Egypt agreed to accept the dam and the rest of Arabia wants to grow its food in Ethiopia, which has massive fertile land, abundance of water and natural resources including human capital.
