Title:The Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF): The Dilemma of its Struggle in Ethiopia
Author:Abdi M Abdullahi
Location:Vol.34 No.113 (Sept 2007), pp587-562

Nevertheless, the recent Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) attack on a Chinese oilfield in Obolo village in the Dhagabour zone, and the current Ethiopian and American coalition under the global war on terror in the Horn of Africa, sheds light upon the continuing conflict in the region.
