WHAT ABOUT OUR CYMRIC HOMELAND SECURITY?

.

Bought this card in an Oxfam shop, suggest you do like wise, they cost two for a pound. Remember money is going to a very good cause. Further, do visit the AIM website, for some great history and an idea about how to continue a real struggle for people, community and culture. Not least against Oppression, Tyrrany and exploitation in radical ways we never even consider as occupation, as at Wounded Knee in 1973. See links below:

Although, if I remember correctly CIG have had a few occupations, but I mean really big and dramatic occupations as Cofiwn nearly pulled off in 1983 during it's Anti - Festival of Castle Campaign. Too bad we do not have a similar movement to AIM in Wales, although Cofiwn came near it as an Anti - Cerebral Colonial Movement. Following a rally in Caernarfon Cofiwn members and other Nationalists attempted to storm Caernarfon Castle, but the gates were shut in their faces. However, a sitdown was held and the castle remained closed for rest of the day. That made headlines even on the English Saturday night news as first item, today it would make world news, as since 1983 the Castle has been made a World Heritage Site. Not that I would ever again dare suggest that patriots >>>>>>STORM THE CASTLE - CLOSE IT DOWN! would I? HHHhhhmmm!!!!!!!!!!!

The postcard above in mind and thinking of Wales, we can say that those who came to conquer and colonise, first took our land and since have stolen our water, and at present are hi-jacking our wind? Our land has been taken for Reservoirs, Forestry's and Military Installations and now it's Windfarm Plantations being set up to blight our land almost on as many mountain tops has the Windmill planters can get away with if the opposition is not strong enough. In this connection see Embassy Glyndwr's TARIAN GLYNDWR Defend Our Heritage in the Landscape Campaign Information in Owain Glyndwr Communicates blog, also check out Cymdeithas Cymod blog for info on their anti - Armed forces day demonstration on the English Military Training Ground on Epynt Mountains. In passing I will also mention that in Northern Wales, the now so called ''Republican Movement'', that is Balchder Cymru the ''Nationalist Political Think Tank'' were holding a Martyrs commemoration at Abergele, see my blog Welsh Remembrancer for further brief information.
.
To my mind CYMOD is doing a great job in it's particular ''Religious Pacifist'' area, as for Adam Phillip's BC who having been around for a decade, they still seem to do very little other than commemorate and history of nationalist struggle that occurred 40 years ago. Surely, this Parading, Posturing and Posing Patriotism has now reached it's 'Sell By Date', so where next for the ''Balchder Boyos'', maybe tomorrow 1 July 2009 at the Gate of Caernarfon Castle they will become the 'BARRIO WARRIORS' that Wales needs and deserves! We shall see?

.

I hear Llais Gwynedd has reached it's 'Use By Date' and that Cymuned is very near it's 'Sell By Date' but are burying their heads in the sand that this is the reality staring them in the face as sooner as later. I think it's time for all these wee Nationalist grouplets to get their heads from between their legs and put them together, their heads that is not their legs? Discussing and deciding on disbanding and instead uniting to form MAC III - a new Welsh MOVEMENT AGAINST COLONIALISM radical and militant but not as MAC I and MAC II (Meibion Glyndwr). No! No! No! what we need is something along the lines of that Anti - Colonial Struggle Campaign at present up and running in North East Wales. Think about it! Seriously!!!

.

Why not launch this new movement at Bala (Eisteddfod Week) for it was at Bala took place the biggest community surrender of Glyndwr's supporters at conclusion of his struggle for Welsh Independance. So kind of symbolic for a new struggle to arise there but please forget all this ''Welsh Republicanism'', that's dead in the water. Please this time around, make your three aims in this order of priorities:

.

* First Aim Defending People and Communities from oppression.

.

* Second Aim Defending Land and it's Natural Resources from exploitation.

.

* Third Aim Defending our Native Heritage, Culture and Language.

.

If something radical along these lines does not happen soon to put a capital 'S' into Struggle in Wales, then I am going to have to peddle the message .....

LLYWELYN LOST HIS HEAD FOR WALES - DON'T YOU LOOSE YOURS - IT'S NOT WORTH IT!
