CARDIFF DAY of ACTION - THE WELSH DEFENCE LEAGUE Is It Really Welsh?...What Are The Issues Involved?

.
I have absolutly no time at all for 'Islamic Fascism' nor the 'Anti - Secularism' of a number of Islamic Fundamentalists, I absolutly opposed the Invasion of Iraq as one of the Western Worlds greatest crimes against the Third World. However, regards the Invasion and War in Afghanistan against the 'Taliban' I am not so sure that pulling out now would be the right thing to do in interest of people of Afghanistan and neibouring Pakistan and beyond. As for Palestine >

I am not a 'Knee Jerker' who cannot wait to condemn the USA for all the World's evils, like wise the Brits. I actually supported 'Thatchers Flakland's War' as I knew this would help get rid of the Military Dictatorship in the Argentine. I found it particulsrly sad that many Welsh Nationalists supported the dictatorship just to 'have a go' at the English. For similar reasons I find it kind of duplicitous of Welsh Nationalists who support Palestinians in their struggle against the Israeli Occupiers of the ''Holy Land'' but then are all for the Welsh Colonising Patagonia at expense of the Native Peoples population at time of the Conquest of the Desert' >

Nothing ever is straight forward, is it? Thus it kind of bemuses to see the usual 'Radical Left' kneejerking against USA but say very little about 'Muslim Fascists' persecuting each others major 'Religious Sects'and also carrying out evil ethnic cleansing campaigns against minority ethnic and small religious groups in Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan, including Christians. I am even further bemused by fact that such 'Usual Suspects' quite hypocritically in the 30's would have been quite up for Britain and USA Invading Spain and waging war on the Franco's 'Catholic Fascists' in defence of Spain's elected democratic Republic. Get my point! Think on it!
.
However, I also belive that Muslims who live in Wales have right to practise their Religion and thus build Mosques, it is indeed a sight to see these Muslim peoples sincerly following their religion whilst Welsh Christianity has declined to an almost non - Existant state of affairs. The Welsh have deserted their Chapels and Churches in favour of 'Super Markets' and the religion of Consumerism and the god Mammon >

Not religious myself, have no time for it, our own European History tells us about the horrors of Crusades against Pagans and Cathars, not least what Catholic Spain did in the Americas to the Native Peoples there. Then, just look at that long period of Protestant and Catholic Wars in the age of the Reformation, need I mention what the Nazi Germans did to the Jews, down to the not too distant 'Wars in the Balkans'. Essentially, as far as Religion is concerned it is a matter of a 'Curse on all your houses'. However, read in below link how Islam treated their Pagans and the Christians, a much different story and worthy of noting, see link >

By views on this are a product of being a 'Secularist' and an 'Humanist' which is however, in conflict with some European Pagan and Celtic Druidic Interests if not beliefs I have.

As for the so called ''Welsh Defence League'', just how Welsh is it? If there are any Welsh members, they really need a Reality Check! It's not Muslims or 'Assylum Seekers' that threaten Wales, it's the 'English White Flight' urged on by such as the English Defence League who spread fears amongst the English Population about a ''Muslim Take Over'' of England. Whatever, all this is not Racist but a matter of the Socio - Economic decline and massive depopulation of Native Welsh People to England and further afield. But this is something that as occurred for centuries, today the sad matter is that Crachach 'Welsh Cultural Nationalism' is more concerned with sustaining their 'Crachachach Newydd' largelly non - productive Class to rule over Wales as 'England's Client Tribe' in interest of Neo -Colonialism than attempting to end depopulation with such as 'Jobs For Wales Campaigns'.

So what of this Welsh/English Defence League ? >
