The Ogaden and The Oromo: Please Sign Petition

Hello all,

A petition has been currently approved to be run on the number 10 website.

I am doing my part in trying to spread the importance of this petition. This petition is a call to the Prime Minister to condemn the habitual Human Rights Violations by Ethiopia to its own citizens, primarily the Ogaden and Oromo people.

I have been emailing, contacting and talking to a lot of people so far in the hope that I can increase awareness and the petition can be signed and finally recognised by the current UK Prime Minister.

It is of paramount importance that the international community recognises the plight that faces the Ogaden and the Oromo people.

So I would be grateful if at the very least the TSR community can read about Ethiopia's current regime in the links that I have given. It would also be appreciated if the petition could be signed (takes 1 minute) if you agree with these human rights violations to stop. http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/ogaden/

If you would like to know more about Ethiopia's horrific human rights abuses all that has to be done is to view these sites for reports:

http://www.amnesty.org/en/region/ethiopia - list just goes on in violations
http://www.hrw.org/en/node/79222 - year after years its the same

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I would also be happy to answer questions if you wanted to ask questions. After all, it is a forum. :smile:
