Meanwhile Back In The Cave....


As a follow up to the views of retired urban guerrilla Pio Moa on the use of political violence against the government, here is the opening paragraph of his latest masterpiece, attractively titled Alta Traición (High Treason):

El actual e ilegal gobierno de España, quinta columna del fundamentalismo musulmán ("alianza de civilizaciones") y del terrorismo separatista ("proceso de paz", estatutos anticonstitucionales, etc.), está echando abajo la Constitución, reviviendo los odios de la guerra civil y arrasando el sistema de convivencia democrática construido en la Transición.

My translation.

The current and illegal government of Spain, fifth column of muslim fundamentalism (“alliance of civilizations”) and of separatist terrorism (“peace process”, anti-constitutional autonomy statutes etc), is tearing down the constitution, reviving the hatred of the civil war, and laying waste the system of democratic coexistence constructed during the Transition.

Say what you like about our Pio, he doesn’t hold back on what he thinks.
