If Unity is urgently needed among all the Oromos as a first step towards Freedom and Independence, Integrity is the ultimate guarantee of success in the process.
Integrity means for all the Oromos an everlasting commitment to the Kushitic Quintessence of their Tradition, a Transcendent Path in Search of the Primary Oromo Identity, a Permanent Re-assessment and Re-adjustment of the Oromo political choices to what is not ‘politically correct’ but to what is Kushitically Right.
The Search for the Kushitic Authenticity is not a historical endeavour for today’s Oromos; it may be so, but only at an elementary level. In fact, the Search for the Oromo Soul, the Oromo Noblesse, the Transcendental Soul will offer the keys to Success and Self – Determination in the years ahead.
A deep search in the Values of the Gadaa system; a Quest for the Pillars of Faith in Waaqo; the Humanity they radiate; the Universal Truth they herald; the Self-Reliance they bestow upon every Oromo; the Self-Fulfillment they demand; the Consolidation they grant.
In a world of Immoral Chaos,
In a collapsed Mankind of absolute, materialistic concern,
In a devious and worthless context of egotistic hysteria,
How can an Oromo fit? What can an Oromo offer?
Will an Independent Biyya Oromo be the accomplishment of one more nation building?
Or will the Oromos be able to Herald a New Era for the entire Black continent through a Revitalized Kushitic Democracy?
Awake Finfinne!
The Inner Voice for Integrity and Authenticity is the only resort the Oromos have in today’s world.
Many other peoples may be in parallel path, with their Dramas, their Paths, their Traditions. Darfur, Kabylia, Ogaden, Sidama, Beja, and so many others.
What makes the Oromo Case Unique?
Perhaps only an Oromo can find in the depth of his soul the bitter truth:
There will be no friends in the Path for Independence.
The oppressors and the enemies of yesterday and today will not become the friends and the associates of tomorrow.
From the Tigray aggression there will be no egress.
An Amhara oppressor will always be an Amhara transgressor.
And a Tigray malefactor will never turn to benefactor.
The change will all rely on Oromos’ shoulders.
Only the Oromos’ commotion matters, only the Oromos’ action will be the necessary Hirressa ritual that will revivify the Mormor of their souls.
Is it not therefore now the correct time to say
Galataa kee yaa Waaq, kan bishanfqilleensaa nuukenitee
and ultimately cross the river of Darkness, cutting the last chains of oppression that kept Oromos inactive for too long?
What makes the Oromo Case Unique?
Perhaps only an Oromo can find in the depth of his soul the bitter truth:
The Kushitic Integrity cannot be bartered with diplomatic calculations, American advise, and Anglo-French guidance.
The Kushitic Genius cannot be exposed in the Stock Exchange of faraway intruders, be they Russia, China or others.
In a fake world, there are no superpowers; there are not even powers!
What is felt as such is just erroneous projection of inner fear.
But can a Kushite be fearful of filthy and corrupt politicians, and immoral strategists?
What is the force left in the hands of the so-called great powers, except acquired speed of oppression politics and cynical purposes?
Who should fear more? A Kushite original uttering ‘Leemmoo Garaa Taliilaa’ or a Westerner who is today fully aware of the bubble going soon burst?
Awake, Awake, Finfinne! O lovely Emanation of Kush.
Awake and overspread all Nations as in Ancient Time;
For lo! The Night of Death is past and the Eternal Day
Appears upon Tulla Hills. Awake, Finfinne, and come away!
