    The Noonnoo Massacre: A Shame That Stains Oromia and Ethiopia Alike

    ByOT Editorial Posted on2025-10-202025-10-21

    The Noonnoo massacre has once again exposed the moral decay within Oromia’s political leadership and Ethiopia’s federal establishment. When 27 innocent lives — mostly children and the elderly — are slaughtered, yet no voice of outrage rises from those sworn to defend the people, silence becomes complicity. The tragedy is not just the massacre itself, but the cancerous indifference of leaders who have traded conscience for comfort and turned Oromia’s pain into background noise.

    The Happy Tears of One, the Anguished Tears of Thousands

    ByOT Editorial Posted on2025-09-092025-09-09

    Ethiopia today elevates the happy tears of an autocratic ruler above the anguished tears of thousands. As Oromia bleeds from years of massacres, displacement, and proxy wars, state media buries the truth — while in grotesque contrast, the ruler’s tears of joy receive wall-to-wall coverage. History warns us: ignored anguish always erupts into tragedy. The world must act now, before Oromia’s tears ignite into an irreversible fire.

    When Hundreds of Thousands Equal Zero

    ByOT Editorial Posted on2025-02-092025-02-09

    “Believe it or not, we did not torture a single person.” These were the words spoken by Ethiopia’s Prime Minister just days ago. A bold statement. A lie so audacious, so detached from reality, that it serves as the mother of all lies. The truth is written in blood and suffering. The Oromia region alone…

    When Those Who Should Protect You Become the Perpetrators

    ByElemoo Qilxuu Posted on2025-02-022025-02-02

    This article was part-featured in Ethio Forum’s news documentary: የሽመልስ አብዲሳ የምስጢር ሠራዊት፤ ነጌኛዎቹ ወታደሮች (5 Feb 2025). What Do You Do When Power Becomes the Criminal?

    Not Poor But Dispossessed

    ByOlii Boran Posted on2024-12-012025-01-21

    Excerpt: She is not poor but dispossessed. The tear-streaked face of an Oromo woman from northern Oromia, captured in a single haunting photograph, tells a story of systemic betrayal. Her sadness is not born of fate but of deliberate cruelty—of a government that abandoned her, of militias that stole her land, and of institutions that…

    ByStaff Reporter Posted on2023-01-062023-01-20

Their hate…
