SUBJECT: ETHIOPIA: RECENT BOMBINGS BLAMED ON OROMOS POSSIBLY THE WORK
OF GOE Classified By: CHARGE VICKI HUDDLESTON FOR REASONS 1.4(b)AND(d).
¶1. (S) SUMMARY A series of explosions were reported in Addis Ababa on
September 16, killing three individuals. The GoE announced that the
bombs went off while being assembled, and that the three dead were
terrorists from the outlawed Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) with links to
the Oromo National Congress (ONC). An embassy source, as well as
clandestine reporting, suggests that the bombing may have in fact been
the work of GoE security forces. END SUMMARY ¶2. (U) On September 16,
three bomb explosions were reported in the Kara Kore area of Addis
Ababa. The explosions were heard at 4:45 a.m., 7:00 a.m., and 10:00 a.m.
The National Intelligence and Security Service (NISS), together with
the Federal Police Anti-terror Task Force later reported that the bombs
were “part of a coordinated terror attack by the OLF and Sha’abiya
(Eritrea) aimed at disrupting democratic development.” The NISS said
that the intended terror plot had failed and the bombs had mistakenly
gone off while the suspects were preparing them while hiding out at an
illegally built house. Two of the suspects died immediately, while
another died on the way to the hospital. One other is in critical
condition. The police task force reported having others in custody
related to the plot and that evidence shows the terrorists had ties to
Oromo groups – the Mecha and Tulema Association (MTA) and the ONC. They
also said that the bombs used contained parts sourced from Eritrea and
were consistent with bombs used in previous terrorist attacks. ¶3. (S)
On September 20, Dr. Merera Gudina (strictly protect), the former leader
of the ONC (and a typically reliable information source), contacted
Post to report that the deceased had not died not while constructing a
bomb, but rather at the hands of GoE cadres. Dr. Merera said that the
men had been picked up by police a week prior, kept in detention and
tortured. He said police then left the men in a house and detonated
explosives nearby, killing 3 of them. He did not indicate whether the
men were ONC or OLF affiliated. ¶4. (S) Clandestine reporting indicates
that the bombs did not explode inside the structure, but rather appear
to have been placed outside and detonated. [Ambassador Vicki] HUDDLESTON

Secret Wikileaks Cable Reveals Recent Bombings in Addis Ababa the Work of the Woyane minority regime in Ethiopia

The Two Wiki Files that Froze the Zenawi Regime’s Spine Zenawi’s
contempt for Ethiopian lives and his deceptive nature exposed in Wiki
files By TesfaNews, Here we go again, on another eye boggling denials by
the shameless minority Ethiopian regime after embarrassed by a series
of revelation from a secret US Embassy cables released by the whistle
blower website Wikileaks. Yesterday, they issued a frantic ‘press
statement’ with the usual denials and full of armature diplomatic
languages concerning ‘two issues‘ raised on the Ethiopia Wikileaks
files. The first issue that hits the nerve of the Addis Ababa junta was
the release of the file that exposes the pattern and behavior of the
Ethiopian security forces on how they plant bombs in the city then later
blame on the opposition and neighboring Eritrea. Because this latest
revelation is to their complete disadvantage specially at a time when
they were seeking, in a frenzied campaign together with Susan Rice, for
more severe economic sanctions on Eritrea under the pretext that Eritrea
planned a terror bomb attack during an African Union summit last
January in Addis Ababa. The report from a 2006 US Embassy cable
reference id: #06ADDISABABA2708, said:
“An embassy source, as well as clandestine reporting, suggests that
the bombing may have in fact been the work of the Government of Ethiopia
(GOE) security forces.”
The Wikileaks report goes on,
“A typically reliable information source contacted Post to
report that” the bodies of three men found at the bomb sites were “men
[who] had been picked up by police a week prior, kept in detention and
tortured. He said police then left the men in a house and detonated
explosives nearby, killing 3 of them.”
This high profile US government report irrefutably witnessed the
pattern and behavior of the minority regimes identical lies about a
nearly identical “terrorist attacks” that are staged time and again in
different parts of Ethiopia in the hope of getting some short-lived
propaganda gains on its opponents by playing the blame game. However,
this also raises some serious questions about the credibility of the
recently released report by the UN Monitoring Group for Eritrea and
Somalia which blames Eritrean and the OLF for the January bombing
attempt at the African Union summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The second
issue that makes the Addis Ababa junta a bit uncomfortable is the
release of the file that exposes Zenawi’s ill advice to the Americans on
the option of seeing an Al Bashir free Sudan. The January 30, 2009
report released by Wikileaks shows discussions that took place between
Zenawi and Acting Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Phil
Carter and during the discussion, Zenawi told the officials that,
“Toppling the government led by Sudanese president Omer Hassan al-Bashir would be the ideal scenario for Washington.”
Zenawi then went on to wrap up his views by saying that,
“If he [Zenawi] were the United States’ he would look at two
options and the first one, which he clearly conveyed as the preferred
choice would be “removing the Bashir regime.”

Breaking News: Ethiopia government conducted a staged bomb attack, yet again!!
» Today, 03:08
Ethiopia’s ruling junta again killed innocent civilians by
planting a bomb in a minibus. Many people have been warning the
possibility of such an attack coming from the terrorist organization
which is leading Ethiopia now. It has been a known fact that the ruling
party in Ethiopia conducts such criminal acts in order to keep the
assistance it gets from the so called ‘allies’ in the name of
antiterrorism operations. According to wikileaks documents, even the US
is well aware of such criminal acts of the ethnic minority junta in
power in Ethiopia, but is still keeping its assistance without any
restriction.Four killed in bomb blast as Ethiopia raises security alert:
official ADDIS ABABA | Wed Nov 6, 2013 2:13pm EST (Reuters) – Four
people were killed when a bomb blast tore through a minibus in western
Ethiopia late on Tuesday, at about the same time that the government
warned of imminent attacks by militants, an official said. The official,
speaking to Reuters on Wednesday, said nobody had claimed
responsibility for the blast. Addis Ababa put its security forces on
heightened alert on Tuesday night after receiving strong evidence that
Somalia’s Islamist al Shabaab group was plotting assaults. It was not
clear whether the blast occurred before or after that warning. “The bomb
exploded on Tuesday inside a minibus travelling in Segno Gebeya,”
government spokesman Shimeles Kemal said, referring to a region
bordering Sudan. “No one has claimed responsibility yet. The case is
under investigation.” The warning came three weeks after officials said
two Somali suicide bombers accidentally blew themselves up while
preparing for an attack on football fans during Ethiopia’s World Cup
qualifying match against Nigeria. Al Shabaab has warned Ethiopia of
revenge attacks for deploying troops inside Somalia to fight the al
Qaeda-linked militants, alongside African Union forces from Uganda,
Burundi and Kenya. The National Intelligence and Security Service also
urged the public on Tuesday to inform police if they encountered
“suspicious” activity, and urged hotel staff and private landlords to
verify the identity of visitors. Al Shabaab gunmen killed at least 67
people in September when they raided a mall in the neighboring Kenyan
capital of Nairobi. Addis Ababa says it has foiled several attacks in
the past few years planned by domestic rebel groups and Somali
insurgents. There have also been sporadic explosions in recent years.
Thirteen people were wounded when an explosive device ripped through a
bus in the north in 2010, while a bomb explosion near a court in the
capital injured two in 2011. (Reporting by Aaron Maasho; Editing by
