This should serve to put the Brits in their place and stop them from
referring to the Spanish, as well as other Latin Peoples, as their
inferiors.

"A team from Oxford University has discovered that the Celts, Britain's
indigenous people, are descended from a tribe of Iberian fishermen who
crossed the Bay of Biscay 6,000 years ago. DNA analysis reveals they
have an almost identical genetic "fingerprint" to the inhabitants of
coastal regions of Spain, whose own ancestors migrated north between
4,000 and 5,000 BC.
The discovery, by Bryan Sykes, professor of human genetics at Oxford
University, will herald a change in scientific understanding of
Britishness.
People of Celtic ancestry were thought to have descended from tribes of
central Europe. Professor Sykes, who is soon to publish the first DNA
map of the British Isles, said: "About 6,000 years ago Iberians
developed ocean-going boats that enabled them to push up the Channel.
Before they arrived, there were some human inhabitants of Britain but
only a few thousand in number. These people were later subsumed into a
larger Celtic tribe... The majority of people in the British Isles are
actually descended from the Spanish."
Professor Sykes spent five years taking DNA samples from 10,000
volunteers in Britain and Ireland, in an effort to produce a map of our
genetic roots.
Research on their "Y" chromosome, which subjects inherit from their
fathers, revealed that all but a tiny percentage of the volunteers were
originally descended from one of six clans who arrived in the UK in
several waves of immigration prior to the Norman conquest.
Deeeelightful! -- DSH
The most common genetic fingerprint belongs to the Celtic clan, which
Professor Sykes has called "Oisin". After that, the next most
widespread originally belonged to tribes of Danish and Norse Vikings.
Small numbers of today's Britons are also descended from north African,
Middle Eastern and Roman clans.
These DNA "fingerprints" have enabled Professor Sykes to create the
first genetic maps of the British Isles, which are analysed in Blood of
the Isles, a book published this week. The maps show that Celts are
most dominant in areas of Ireland, Scotland and Wales. But, contrary to
popular myth, the Celtic clan is also strongly represented elsewhere in
the British Isles.
"Although Celtic countries have previously thought of themselves as
being genetically different from the English, this is emphatically not
the case," Professor Sykes said.
"This is significant, because the idea of a separate Celtic race is
deeply ingrained in our political structure, and has historically been
very divisive. Culturally, the view of a separate race holds water. But
from a genetic point of view, Britain is emphatically not a divided
nation."
Although the Romans ruled from AD 43 until 410, they left a tiny
genetic footprint. For the first 200 years occupying forces were
forbidden from marrying locally.
Don't tell the locals, but the hordes of British holidaymakers who
visited Spain this summer were, in fact, returning to their ancestral
home."

Not only is this fact, a theory, yes, but it is also something that makes
much sense.
Now, I have also noticed a similarity in the "accent" of some proud, pure
Scots and some Spanish pronounciations (from Spain)... I have told some
...'you know, you do sound to me as a Spaniard speaking in English, same
RRR's, same manerisms in the speech, other things'... of course, they never
take too kindly to such comments, but they are true.
There was a time when I wasn't that used to sounds from Scotland, yet quite
used to many Spanish accents, that I really thought they were gallegos
trying to speak English...'cause their English was quite "strange" and they
did sound like some Spaniards.
One might think some info like this could be a start, the possibility of a
change in their attitudes towards other cultures... The English, I mean,
but...man, that'd be impossible. King or Queen and Empire...even in ruins.
The pride goes on.

Oh yes you pair of shitehawkes the British really look like Spaniard don't
they, how could we have been so stupid not to have noticed all these years.
We have so much in common like torturing bulls and donkey's, and all the
women in Britain dress in black and sit on their arse's all day don't they.
Also I hope you are a Spaniard giving us a lecture on Empire after the
misery you lot caused around the world with your genocide. It was for the
sake of humanity that we had to give you a good hiding and take your gold
off you.
However what goes around comes around I suppose as we are giving you all our
fucking hard earned money through that great gobshite the E.U. Don't bite
the hand that feeds you swarthy ignorant fuckweeds.

They do. But you have to be an observer, not part of the scenery, of course.

Not at all! Bulls are too big and risky. You guys reserve all the torturing
for those little animals, the wee, quite inoffensive...foxes, isn't it?
The proving of the brave youth, the "bloodying" ceremony, quite a feat, I
say!

That swarthy part is not reserved only for the Spanish. Just open your
fucking eyes! And not only from bloody bastards, like you lot, but bastards
from unknown Spanish fathers, so many of yous!
Up your ass! Take'em nice 'n easy as usual, fuckface!

SEANN EACHDRAIDH LEÒDHAIS
le Iain N. MacLeoid
'S anns 's a' bhliadhna 1098, tha chiad iomradh againn air eilean
Leòdhais ann an eachdraidh, mar eadar-dhealaichte bho an h-Innse-Ghall
eile. 'S a' bhliadhna sin chiosnaich rìgh Manus á Lochlunn na
h-Eileanan an Iar cho buileach 's gu 'm bheil bàrd na cùirte rioghail
aig an àm ag ràdh "gu'n robh deatach an léir-sgrios a' ruigheachd na
nèamhan os cionn Ljódhhús."
'S e so an t-ainm Lochlunnach a bh' air Leòdhas aig an àm, agus tha 'n
t-Ollamh Macbheathain de 'n bheachd gu 'm bheil an t-aon chiall aig
Lódóse 's an t-Suain. Cha' n' eil luchd-mineachaidh ro-chòirdte
timchioll air brìgh an fhocail, agus mar sin 's co math dhuinn gun
deasbaireachd a dheanamh mu 'n chùis.
Tha beul-aithis Eirionnach ag ràdh gu 'n robh Conall Cearnach, sonn
treun à Ullaidh a' toigail cìse an Leòdhas 's a' bhliadhna h-aon, agus
na 'm biodh dearbhadh. cinnteach air sin 's iomadh linn a chuireadh e
ri aois eachdraidh an eilein.
Cha' n' eil teagamh nach ann á Eirinn a thainig na Gàidheil do na
h-Eileanan an Iar timchioll air an t-seathamh linn. 'N uair a thainig
na Ceilteich do dh' Alba ann an Aois an Iaruinn fhuair iad dà threubh
romhpa na Lubrachain agus treubh na h-umha. 'S e daoine beaga dubha le
cinn fhada bha 's na Lubrachain.
'S iad a thog na dùin sheòmrachail agus mullaichean cruinn orra, agus
faodaidh sinn a chreidsinn gur h-ann do Aois na Cloiche 'bhuineadh iad
a reir na sgile leis an do thog iad na seòmraichean sin. A stigh air
criochaibh na treibh sin thainig treubh na h-umha, daoine móra,
garbha, le aodainn fhada, cholgach, cinn mhóra chruinne agus failt
bàn.
Tha luchd-rannsachaidh a' deanamh a mach gur h-iad a thog na
Tursaichean ainmeil a th' aig Callanis agus àitean eile. Tha cuid de
'n bheachd gu 'm b' e teampuill no tighean-aoraidh a bha anns na
Tursaichean so, agus gu 'n robh na righrean treuna a thuiteadh 's a'
bhlàr air an tòrradh annta, agus iobairtean de gach seorsa air an
toirt suas mar onair dhoibh. Tha fhios againn gu 'n d' fhuaradh
cisteachan-cloiche iomadh uair aig na Tursaichean so, agus cnàmhan
ainmhidhean agus dhaoine a nochdadh gur dòcha gu 'n robh 'n treubh
borb ud, ag iòbradh eadhon an gineal airson sàsachaidh a thoirt do
agartasan an diathan.
Cha do dh' fhàg na Lochlunnaich móran de eachdraidh sgriobhte as an
déidh. Cha b' ann air sgriobhadh an eachdraidh a bha 'n aire ach air
mortadh agus marbhadh agus togail cheach, ach a dh' aindeoin sin uile
dh' fhàg iad an làrach anns gach ceum de 'n eilean anns an d' imich
iad, oir 's gann gu 'm bheil cnoc, abhuinn, òb no caol an Eilean an
Fhraoich nach do bhaist iad 'n an cànain mu 'n d' fhàg iad. Tha
ceithir ainmean Lochlunnach an Leòdhas mu choinneamh gach ainm
Gàidhealach no Ceilteach a th' ann. Tha cuid eadhon a' deanamh a mach
gur h-ann an déidh ionnsaidh nan Lochlunnach a dh' eirich am beagan
ainmean Gàidhlig a th' ann, agus le sin tha e coltach, nach mór nach
do sguabadh gu buileach na Ceiltich á Leòdhas tràth 's an naodhamh
linn.
'S ann a thogail chreach a thainig na Lochlunnaich an toiseach do na
h-Eileanan an Iar, ach 'n uair a bha 'n gnothuch a' còrdadh riutha cho
math bha sgaoth a' fuireach bliadhna 'n déidh bliadhna.
Mu dheireadh an deicheamh linn tha iomradh againn air Maccus no
Macharailt a' chiad rìgh a chuir na Lochlunnaich os cionn nan Eileanan
an Iar, a bha uile fo 'n spòig bho Arcamh a dh' ionasuidh an Eilean
Mhanainneich. Tha sin a' sealltuinn dhuinn cho mór agus cho
éifeachdach 's a bha cumhachd nan Lochlunnach air na h-Eileanan sin.
An déidh bhàis an rìgh sin, chuir rìgh Lochluinn uachdar, an thairis
air na h-Eileanan, ach mharbhadh an Leòdhas e am feadh 's a bha e
togail chreach an sin. 'S ann an uair sin a rinn rìgh Manus suas
inntinn nach fhàgadh e tigh tioram gun chiosnachadh 's na h-Eileanan
an Iar. Thainig e le cabhlach threun 's a' bhliadhna 1098, agus rinn e
sgrios iomlan air Leòdhas, Uidhist, an t-Eilean Sgiathanach, Tiriodh,
Muile agus Ile, ach choinnich a nàmhaid fhéin ri Manus an Eirinn, agus
mharbhadh e.
Cha do dh' eirich cumhachd nan Lochlunnach na b' àirde na sin, ged
nach do dh' fhàg iad na h-Eileanan gus am b' éigin dhoibh an déidh
blàir na Leargaidh Ghallda 's a' bhliadhna 1263. Rinn leir-sgrios
Mhanuis làrach mór air cridheachan nan eileanach fad iomadh bliadhna.
Rachadh iad anns an fhaochaig na 'n cluinneadh iad eadhon 'ainm.
Tha cuid de bhàrdachd Oisein a' luaidh air a' churaidh sin, agus tha
'm far-ainm a bh' air "Manus a' ghlùin-rùisgte" a nochadh gu 'n robh e
cleachdadh an fhèilidh agus a' bhreacain, 's dòcha mar chuimhneachan
orra-san a chuir e gu bàs.
Chaidh cùisean air aghaidh mar sin gu carraideach - rìgh an déidh rìgh
a' tighinn thairis à Lochlunn, agus a togail leis gach ni nach robh
ro-thròm no ro-theith. agus a' fagail fhàrdaichean 'n gual 'n a
dhéidh. Rinn Alasdair a Trì, rìgh Alba, suas inntinn gu 'n cuireadh
esan stad air brùidealachd nan Lochlunnach, agus gu 'n ciosnaicheadh e
na h-Eileanan an Iar dha fhéin.
'S a bhliadhna 1263, chuir e tairgse-còmhraig gu Haco rìgh Lochluinn,
bha Haco ro-dheònach, agus ann a' mios no dhà thainig e le trì chiad
bìrlinn agus dh' acraich e faisg air an Leargaidh Ghallda.
Tha fhios againn uile mar thachair, rinn stoirmean agus doinninn na
Lùnasdail an gnothuch air cabhlach Haco, bhriseadh iad 'n am mìle clàr
air cladaichean a' Chuain an Iar, thug e fhéin suas an deò 'n ath
bhliadha, agus cheannaich rìgh Alasdair na h-Eileanan an Iar bho làimh
Lochluinn 's a' bhliadhna 1266, an déidh dhoibh a bhi fo 'n cìs fad
chóig ciad bliadhna.
Cha 'n e mhàin gu 'n do dh' fhàg na Lochlunnaich an làrach air ainmean
nan àitheachan an Leòdhas, ach dh' fhàg iad an sliochd 'n an déidh
cuideachd. Tha 'n t-Ollamh Beddoes, a rinn móran rannsachaidh air
freumh gach tréibh ag ràdh mar so:
"Coinnichidh tri seorsachan dhaoine ruinn an Leòdhas. Tha na
Lochlunnaich ann, daoine móra, foghainteach, fínealta, le falt
buidhe-bhàn agus sùilean gorma. Tha muinntir Nis gu léir de'n treubh
so.
"Tha daoine beaga tiugh ann, le srón chutach, falt dubh, agus air
uairibh sùilean dubha, agus tha 'n àite-còmhnuidh am Barabhas, agus
aig an treas seorsa tha pearsachan calma, gun a bhi ro àrd, aodann
fada, mórchnàmhach, sròn fhada charach bhiorach, sùilean liatha agus
falt dubh. 'S e mo bheachd gur h-e siol nan Lochlunnach a tha fhathast
timchioll Steòrnabhaigh ged a bhàthadh an cànain leis a' Ghàidhlig bho
chionn iomadh ann".
Tha sinn de 'n bheachd gu 'n deanadh cùnntas an Ollaimh so mu
threubhan Leòdhais an gnothuch glé mhath airson aoin sam bith de na
h-Eileanan an Iar, ged is dòcha nach 'eil an aon uibhir de fhuil nan
Lochlunnach 's gach aon diubh.
'N uair a rinn righrean Albainn agus Lochluinn an cùmhnant ceannaich
airson na h-Eileanan an Iar, thugadh a dha roghainn do gach
Lochlunnach a bha ann an seilbh air còir sam bith 's na h-Elleanan an
uair sinn - dh' fhaodadh e dol dhachaidh gu Lochlunn, agus a chuid
uile 'thoirt leis, air neo fuireach far an robh e agus tighinn gu
sìtheil fo riaghladh Rìgh Alasdair, le maitheanas saor airson
ar-a-mach sam bith a rinn e roimhe sin.
Thugadh Leòdhas agus an t-Eilean Sgiathanach do Uilleam, Iarla Rois a
Dhà, agus chum esan iad fo chìs do Rìgh Alba.
Bha Eilean Leòdhais ré chiad gu leth bliadhna 'na dhéidh sin fo
riaghlidh Iarlan Rois. Cha 'n fhaic sinn a' bheag sam bith ann an
eachdraidh timchioll air na bliadhnaibh sin. Bha Ghàidhlig a'
buadhachadh gach bliadhna, bha 'n eaglais a nis Ceilteach, agus thug
sin adhartas nach bu bheag do 'n chànain.
Bha Iarlan Rois glé chumhachdach. Bha 'n daingneach laidir ann am
Baile-dhuthaich 's bha móran iochdaran aca, mar bha clann 'Icleoid
Leòdhais 's na h-Earradh, a bha 'n ùghdarras air Asaint bho Thuath
agus Glinn-eilge.
An déidh sin 'n uair a bha Tighearnais Leòdhais ag atharrachadh bho
Chlann an t-Sagairt gu Clann Dhomhnuill, Stiubhartaich, Clann an
Fhleisdeir, agus a ris gu Clann Dhomhnuill, b' e Clann 'Icleoid a bha
'n an cinn-cinnidh air an Eilean. Faodaidh sinn eadhon a ràdh gur
h-ann an Leòdhas a chinnich Clann 'Icleoid. Tha móran de 'n bbeachd
gur h-ann á Lochlunn a thainig iad an toiseach.
Tha'n eachdraidh chumanta aca 'g ràdh gu 'n d' thainig an cinneadh bho
dhithis bhràthrean, Torcull agus Tormod, Clann Leoid, a bha beò 's an
treas linn diag. B' e Leod so mac Olaibh Dhuibh rìgh an Eilein
Mhanainneich agus nan Eileanan eile, a phòs Nicrailt Armuinn leis an
d'fhuair a Dùnbheagain mar thochradh, far am bheil ceann-cinnidh
Chloinn 'Icleoid aig an latha 'n diugh.
Bha Leod 'n a uachdaran air Leòdhas agus air an Eilean Sgiathanach,
agus 'n uair a chaochail e roinneadh 'oighreachd eadar a dhithis mhac.
Fhuair Torcull Leòdhas, agus Tormod an t-Eilean Sgiathanach agus mar
sin 's e clann an dithis bhràithrean a tha 'n Clann 'Icleoid Leòdhais,
siol Thorcuill, agus Clann 'Icleoid an Eilein Sgiathanaich, siol
Thormoid.
Fhuair Ruairidh Macleoid Eilean Leòdhais 'n a làmhan fhéin an uair a
thainig cumhachd Tighearna nan Eileanan gu neo-ni, agus bha
'theaghlach a' riaghladh an eilein ciad bliadhna. An deireadh a latha
bha e ann an sith ris an righ, oir tha cunntas againn an eachdraidh,
gu 'n chuir e làmh ri cùmhnant a thug an rìgh do Iarla
Earra-ghàidheil.
An uair a chaochail e, ghabh a mhac Torcull 'àite, agus anns a'
bhliadhna sin fhéin fhuair e 'n a bhàillidh air Tròtairnis agus
Dùnthuilm 's an Eilean Sgiathanach. Phòs e nighean Iarla
Earra-ghàidheil agus mar sin rinn e taobh mór ri Domhnull Dubh, mac
peathar na mnà aige, agus oighre Tighearna nan Eileanan.
Bha Domhnull Dubh 'n a phriosanach fad a bheatha gus an dotheich e do
Leòdhas 's a' bhliadhna l5Ol. Cbaidh priomh-chinnidhean nan eilean fo
bhratach Dhomhnuill, agus thòisich an cogadh mar b' àbhaist. Rinn na
naimhdean ionnsaidh air caisteal Steòrnabhaigh 's a' bhliadhna 1506,
agus ghabh iad sealbh air, agus cha 'n fhaic sinn an còrr mu Thorcull
an eachdraidh.
Fhuair a bhràthair Calum, cùmhnant sgriobhte air Leòdhas cóig bliadhna
'n déidh sin, leis an d' aisigeadh dha, cha 'n a mhàin Leòdhas, ach
Bhatairnis, Asaint bho Thuath, agus a' Choigeach, le caisteal
Steòrnabhaigh mar phriomh-lùchairt.
Tha ùghdarras Chloinn 'Icleoid air Leòdhas a nise tighinn gu crich,
agus mar a ghabhas e creidsinn, cha b' ann gun mhort no gun mhilleadh
a leig iad às an gréim.
Phòs Ruairidh Macleoid, Triath Leòdhais, Seonaid. nighean Iain
Mhicchoinnich, Chinntàile. B' e Torcull Con nach a mhac 'oighre, ach
tha e coltach nach robh e gabhail ris mar oighre dligheach, agus mar
sin rinn e oighre do Thorcull Dubh, mac an treas mnà, nighean Mhic
'Illeathain Dhubbairt. Thòisich an sin cogadh agus aimhreit eadar
Torcull Conanach agus Torcull Dubh, agus fad iomadh bliadhna bha
Leòdhas ann an staid bhrònach agus bhuaireasach.
'S a' bhliadhna 1568, ghlacadh Ruairidh le Torcull Conanach, agus rinn
e priosanach dheth ré cheithir bliadhna, Thug a sin e air beulaobh
comhairle na rioghachd, agus thug e air gu 'n gheall e gu 'n deanadh e
oighre dheth. Rinn Ruairidh sin ach tharruing e air ais a ris a chionn
gu 'm b' ann bho phéin a' bhàis a thugadh air a dheanamh. Ma bha
teaghlach riamh roinnte 'n an aghaidh fhéin b' e sud iad.
Bha cóignear ghillean aig Ruairidh Macleoid. Bha triuir dhiubh air
taobh an athar, agus lean dithis dhiubh ri 'n leth bhràthair, Torcull
Conanach. B' e Niall Macleoid a' fear bu chumhachdaiche dhiubh so. Bha
esan an toiseach le 'athair, ach an déidh làimhe thaobh e ri Torcull
Dubh, agus mur biodh treubhantas Neill tha sinn a' creidsinn nach robh
e comasach do' Thorcull sealbh a chumail air Leòdhas cho fada.
Chaidh Torcull Conanach do 'n Choigeich, agus shuidhich e e fhéin 'n a
uachdaran air sin, air dha cuideachadh fhaighinn bho Chloinn
Mhicchoinnich, Chinntàile. Timchioll air a' bhliadhna 1595, thug
Torcull Dubh ionnsaidh air a bhràthair, an Conanach ann an
Strath-choigeach, agus cha d' fhàg e mart no each, duine no bean no
leanabh, aig Clann 'Icchoinnich Lochbhraoin nach do mharbh e.
Airson an ar-a-mach so, bha'n tòir air Torcull Dubh, agus air do
bhràthair gréim fhaighinn air, chuir e gu bàs e fhéin agus a
luchd-leanmhuinn, 's a' bhliadhna 1597. Bha mhac Torcull, le
cuideachadh Neill, 'n a uachdaran air Leòdhas an déidh sin.
Aig an àm so, chaochail dithis mhac Thorcuill Chonanaich. B' e a
nighean mar sin a b' oighre. Phòs ise bràthair Mhicchoinnich,
Tighearna Chinntàile, agus le sin thug an Conanach suas gach còir a
bh' aige 'n Leòdhas do Thriath Chinntàile. 'S ann air an dòigh sin a
fhuair Clann Mhicchoinnich còir air Leòdhas, ged nach do chuir iad an
còir an cleachdadh gus a' bhliadhna 1610.
'S a' bhliadhna 1596, thainig òrdugh bho 'n Chrùn gu 'm feumadh gach
ceann-cinnidh Gàidhealach an còir dhligheach air an oighreachdan
thoirt am follais don Rìgh, air neo gu 'n d' thoirte uatha iad. Cha d'
rinn Clann 'Icleoid Leòdhais so, agus mar sin-thugadh an t-eilean
uatha, agus thugadh e do na Fiofaich.
Thug na h-uachdarain ùra so ionnsaidh gharbh air an eilean, agus fad
iomadh bliadhna chath iad fhéin agus na Leodaich gu cruaidh, agus bha
brùidealachd thar tomhais 'g a dheanamh air duine agus ainmhidh. Chuir
Niall Macleoid 'n an aghaidh, agus a dh' aindeoin gach ionnsaidh
chumhachdaich a rinneadh air, cha d' thug e suas a dhaingneach. Bha
Triath Chinntàile cuideachd a' cath an aghaidh nam Fiofach, a chionn
gu 'n robh shùil fhéin air an eilean.
Mu dheireadh thall, 'n uair nach robh 'chùis a' dol leis na Fiofaich
cho math 's bu mhath leotha, ghabh iad blas a' chrogain do Leòdhas,
agus bha iad glé thoilichte 'n còir air an eilean a' reic do
Mhacchoinnich, Triath Chinntàile, agus mar sin 's a' bhliadhna 1610,
chaidh an Ridire Ruairidh Macchoinnich, bràthair Triath Chinntàile do
Leòdhas le arm cumhachdach.
Bha móran de threun-fhir nan Leodach air a mort 's a' chath roimhe so,
agus mar sin cha robh iad ach lag fann airson coinneachadh ris na
Sàileich chumhachdach, ach bha ar caraid Niall Macleoid cho treun 's a
bha e riamh, agus rinn e suas inntinn nach leigeadh e as a ghréim air
Leòdhas fhads' a bhiodh an t-anam ann.
'N uair a dh' fhairtlich gach gnothuch air, rinn e a dhaingneach
làidir an eilean Bhearnaraidh, far an do chuir e cruinn stòras mór de
bhiadh agus de dheoch, agus fad thri bliadhna thug e dùbhlan do
chloinn Mhicchoinnich.
Mu dheireadh thad ghoid Ruairidh Chinntàile móran de na mnathan agus
de 'n cloinn a bh' aig Niall am Bearnmaraidh, agus chuir e iad aig
muir tràigh air eilean Bheireiseidh agus bhòidich e gu 'm fàgadh e an
sin iad gus am bàite iad mur géilleadh Niall agus a chuideachd. airson
beatha nam mnathan agus na cloinne shàbhaladh ghéill Niall, agus leis
a' gheilleadh sin thug Clann 'Icleoid suas an còir. gu bràth air
eilean Leòdhais.
Fhuair Niall Macleoid a shaorsa, agus ghabh e fasgadh aig an Ridire
Ruairidh Macleoid, Dhunbheagain, Dh' fhiach Ruairidh ri thoirt an
làthair an rìgh airson maitheanais fhaotainn, ach air a shlighe gu
Sasuinn, fhuaradh a mach gu 'n robh Niall 'n a chuideachd agus
ghlacadh e, airson a thoirt suas do 'n Chrùn. Chrochadh Niall treun am
baile Dhuneideann 's a' bhliadhna 1613. Cha robh aon de'n chinneadh an
Leòdhas riamh a bu treuna, 's a bu dìlse na Niall còir agus tha deagh
chuimhne air an Leòdhas fhathast.
'S e linn charraideach, bhuaireasach fhuileachdach a bha 's na ciad
bliadhna air an robh sinn a' bruidheann. Bha na Leodaich a' cogadh an
aghaidh an naimhdean, agus timchioll an teallaichean fhéin cha robh
sìth no sonas a' riaghladh. 'N uair a ghabh Clann Mhicchoinnich
Chinntàile sealbh air Leòdhas 's a' bhliadhna 1610, fhuair iad gu 'n
robh spiorad agus cumhachd an t-soisgeil marbh.
Chuir iad mar sin 's a' bhliadhna sin fhéin an t-Urr. Fearchar
Macrath, do Leòdhas, airson searmonachaidh an t-soisgeil. Tha e
coltach gu 'm b' e duine iomchuidh a bha so, agus fo theagasg thainig
an t-eilean air aghaidh ann an eolas an Sgriobtuir.
Ged a chaidh Clann 'Icleoid Leòdhais a chur fo chìs le Macchoinnich
Shi-phort, bha iad 'n an sgolb 's an fheoil dha fad iomadh bliadhna.
Gach uair a rachadh airm a' Chrùin do Leòdhas, bhitheadh Clann
'Icleoid a' dol fo 'm bratach an aghaidh Shi-phort, agus bha so a'
cumail suas spiorad na ceannairc a' meagg nan eileanach.
Bha Iarla Shi-phort dìleas do chùis Thearlaich a Dhà an còmhnuidh,
agus cheannaich a chuid fearainn agus a shluagh air sin. Chan 'eil
móran sam bith an eachdraidh mu chùisean Leòdhais bho 1644 gu 1660,
ach tha 'n cùnntas beag a leanas air a thoirt dhuinn leis an Ollamh
Macbheathain, agus tha e coltach gur h-ann an seann leabhar-latha dh'
fhàg neach eigin a fhuair e fhéin e.
"Air an deicheamh latha de 'n Lunasdail 1653, ghabh Còirneal Cobbet le
arm Chromwell, sealbh air an tairbeart (peninsula) air am bheil baile
Steòrnabhaigh air a thogail an diugh, agus air do gach inneal airm a
bha 's an àite bhi air an toirt suas dha, dhaingnich e 'n rudha, agus
dh' fhàg e Maidsear Crispe 'n a uachdaran air Leòdhas le ceithir
reiseamaidean shaighdeirean, dà ghunna-mhór agus ceithir
chroinn-tabhaill.
Air an là mu dheireadh de 'n Fhaoilteach 1654, chuireadh sgeul neònach
do Dhuneideann, gu 'n d' thug Shi-phort le ceithir chiad diag fear,
ionnsaidh air daingneach Steòrnabhaigh agus gun do ghlac e am baile.
Ach air a' cheathramh latha diag de 'n Ghearran 1654, chaidh an sgeul
a dhaingneachadh mar so.
Chaidh Tormod Macleoid air tìr aig Loch Seil, an Leòdhas, le cóig ciad
saighdear, agus air dha bhi am feall - fholach ré cheithir là, an
àit'-éigin, thainig e as am faireachadh air ar saighdeirean a bha air
taobh a muigh na daingnich an Steòrnabhagh, agus mharbh e dusan
dhiubh: chuir reiseamaid a bha 's an daingneach ruaig orra so, thug
iad cobhair do chàch, chuir iad am, biodh do 'n daingneach agus loisg
iad na tighean.
Aig deireadh a' Mhàrt thainig naidheachd gu Dailché gu 'n do mharbh na
saighdeirean a bha 's an daingneach an dream a lean bratach Shi-phort,
chath na Leodaich air aobh an airm againne, agus rinn na sgaraidhean
sin móran dolaidh anns na criochaibh."
Sin ann am beagan bhriathran, neo-iomlan agus cearbach cunntas goirid
air cuid de sheann eachdraidh eilein Leòdhais. 'N uair a smaoinicheas
sinn air cor buaireasach an eilein an uair ud - cor a bha fior mu na
Ghàidhealtachd air fad aig an àm, bu chòir dhuinn a bhi taingeil do 'n
Fhreasdal gu bheil ar beatha-ne ann an linn as sitheile agus as
soirbheachaile.
'S anns 's a' bhliadhna 1098, tha chiad iomradh againn air Eilean
Leòdhais ann an eachdraidh, mar eadar-dhealaichte bho an h-Innse-Ghall

With all the shit I hear that's going on in Gibraltar, I doubt the Spanish

their money. Money they steal from you lot, every single day.

No plis, ya tenemos bastantes guiris en España, inaf is inaf. La costa se
nos ha llenado de gamberros descamisados y borrachos de piel color camarón
cocido y tocados con sombreros mejicanos mercados en las barcelonesas
ramblas.
Lo primero y mas importante: Tu eres es un guiri; hazte a la idea y asúmelo.
Eres guiri total a pesar de que chapurreas esa incoherente jerigonza
celtoide. Los españoles olemos a los guiris a tres leguas, y a los guiris
celtas los tratamos igualito que a los guiris genéricos. Avisado quedas.
Lo malo de los guiris es que son como los elefantes y vuelven todos a morir
al lugar de origen. O quizás son como los salmones y las anguilas. Provienen
de España, como ha demsotrado el investigador ese de Oxford, y a España
vienen a morir. Ahora un porcentaje alto de la población costera de la
Península es de la modalidad geriátrica y pre-geriátrica, lo que en cierto
modo es de agradecer porque así se evitan los desagradabilísimos
juliganes guiris, las broncas discotequeras y las motos de tubarros
infernales.
Todos esos gerontoguiris vienen p'acá a jubilarse. Durante el año pasado
126.980 personas demandaron inmuebles vacacionales en España, de las que
alrededor de 60.000 fueron no residentes, lo que supone un incremento de la
demanda extranjera del 8,7%. Esta demanda es especialmente apreciable en las
nuevas promociones en zonas costeras, tanto en vivienda vacacional como en
primera vivienda. En cuanto a la motivación para comprar casa, alrededor de
las tres cuartas partes buscan una residencia permanente en España para
mudarse cuando alcancen la jubilación, mientras que un 13% busca un espacio
propio para sus vacaciones y un 12%, alquilarla o simplemente hacer una
inversión rentable.
Los ciudadanos ingleses encabezan, con un 52% del mercado, la demanda
extranjera, seguidos de lejos por los alemanes, con un 22% del total.
Ya hay más de medio millón de guiris viviendo en España y ahora sale este
capullo con que va a venir a visitarme. Seguramente ignora que moro en
Indianajuato.

Characterized as "it"? Your ability to "take out" a Latino armed with what?

Weel, chum... I did try to be affable. Yes, sir. But, I assure you that it's

No he isn't - he's pimping off the US. He's from Puerto Rico,
accurately described as "a United States dependency", except for those
lucky enough to have a nubile younger sister or a string of clients
whose dependency is spelled c-o-c-a-i-n-e and comes in baggies marked
"Hecho en Colombia!" (Made in Colombia). He is actually a native of
Vieques - a small island off the coast of Puerto Rico used,
unsurprisingly, for target practice by the United States Navy. So far,
no luck, but their aim has to be improving...
He does however claim to have been in the Spanish Foreign Legion.
famed for its cruelty and brutality and used by the Spanish government
for such housekeeping chores as putting down a strike by Asturian
miners with the usual appalling loss of life that characterizes all
official Spanish attempts to win the hearts and minds of its citizens.
However, don't waste too much time trying to find his name on the roll
of honour (those who have personally bayonetted babies) as in our last
communication, he seemed remarkably ill-informed about the Legion's
structure, like knowing the name of the Tercio (regiment) and bandera
(600 man death squad) he served in, or indeed, the name of anything
connected with it. He did however get full marks for finally guessing
which country is home to the Spanish Foreign Legion.
This thread is just packed with heroes! I can barely hear myself think
for the clinking of crosses and medals. I must dash off and put on my
knot-tying badge so as not to let the side down!

Hey, Mac! Is this an attempt to crack a joke? I didn't think you capable,
specially after my invitation for a friendly chat, face to face like, chum.
Why does it always happen that way, like when Scotland has to play Uruguay
in soccer... C'est la vie, mo charaid.
Weel, if you prefer humour, of course. Here' I is, all willing to exchange

smaller dick... Mine, ye know? I jerked off like a maniac ever since bein'
a wee lad. Then... that small dick grew, and grew, and grew some more 'til
it made me quite proud of meself. Dick-pride, it's all important, y'know.
Just read that poor Mad Dog. The dickless (impotent, same diffence, right?)
poor fellow, has to entertain himself with coloured dicks, The Mad Gobbler
of dicks, now a wet dog...Ha!
Now, why is it that most Scots have this strong tendency to by such a bunch

Presumably you are NOT and Englishman as the saying goes "Mad dogs and
Englishmen..." whatever.
BTW, how much have you lost to the turf accountants?

Scots do not use wallets but something called "sporram"(Gaelic for nut
pouch).
Gaelic has all kinds of words for bizarre things. Sporrams must be some kind
of freudian symbol for scrotums.
Some tourists at Disneyland have copyed those things to carry moolah and
their passports.
Most Scotsmen keep money in their sporrams because if robbed at least they
enjoy the experience.
I believe sporrams should be called "faltriqueras" in Spanish. The DRAE
defines faltriquera as: "Bolsillo que se atan las mujeres a la cintura y
llevan colgando debajo del vestido o delantal". I still remember some old
farm ladies wearing faltriqueras thirty years ago in Extremadura.
Faltriqueras in Spain aren't of celtic origin, but arabic. Faltriquera comes
from the arabic fatrikáyra ( lugar para bagatelas).

I imagine what made you think of the nonsense word "sporram" was its
similarity with the Spanish "esperma".

I have no idea where you would get such an idea. Every Spanish Armada
sailor who got ashore from the galleon wrecked off our island had his
throat slit the moment he touched the beach and his fingers chopped
off to make it easier to get at his rings.
Later they were buried because of the smell of the heaped corpses.
Nothing personal of course; our ancestors would have done the same if
they had been English sailors.

Same with the Highland Scottish gauchos in Argentina's Mendoza
Province and Patagonia, while the Welsh developed Chubut Province. The
English provided the investment cash for the railways and the beef
canneries.

Here's a little tip for you, güebo gilipollas, we don't pimp our
sisters like you do, so your big brave insults make no impact on us.
Instead, we remember that you all came to North America as slaves. My
ancestors were in the slave trade, probably bringing your ancestors
from Africa. Who knows - perhaps we got your family its start in the
New World! You owe us for that, chardolito!

That was a reminder to stay put and fight instead of running away at

Is that you Michelin?
All healed well?
All instruments sharp here; chop, chop.
If this guy is the same that goes by the name of Michelin we have a sick
fuck in our midst, folks.
The Highlander is known for seeking the ultimate in sexual transgression.
His wife died but he still stick it in her.
More on that later.

Soon coming to a graveyard near you.
No lousy politics, just good old Dead Congress.

Their ancestors all came from Andalusia, so they use Andalusia's
pronunciations, like E'paña and Expaña for España.
Ellos son todos campesinos y gitanos - ¡como estos mestizos aquí -

(They are all peasants and gypsies - like these half-breeds here -

To be serious for a kmoment, what a shame that the Spanish managed to
colonize you, as had you been colonized by us Scots, you would be
living in a western style civilization and making lots of money, just
like Canada.
Mexico is a classic example; the richest part of North America, raped
and looted by the Conquistadores and the people left to this day under
the thumb of priests and Spanish-descended colonists.
Michelin is trying to replay old lost battles hoping people won't remember
the kind of ass he made of himself.
This is what a regular poster (James Beck) told him:
----------------------
You could only hope to hail from an island as wonderful as PR. Warm
tropical sands. Delicious food. Beautiful women. No men in skirts.
:Tiglath's not from there, anyway. Maybe you can get some more old,
info from your buddy. We've heard it all before.
At least try to be original, you yolk-less, turtle-egg wannabe.
------------------------------
Enough said.
You are Michelin!
Oh joy!
I must have slapped you a wee bit too hard, you fucking necrophiliac liar,
because in weeks dealing with me you couldn't even learn my country of
origin something that is common knowledge around here. You are that
incompetent and I am just curious what makes you think you are going to fare
better now?
Michelin claimed to know much about the Spanish Legion, enough to show I
never served in it, allegedly. Here is part of what he wrote:
"I double-checked the Ejército (Spanish army)'s requirements
Nacionalidad española. (Spanish nationality).
No tener antecedentes penales. (No criminal record)."
I replied in part with this.
--------------
This page:
http://www.lalegion.com/ser/ser.htm
Fourth paragraph in part:
----------------------------------
INGRESAR ES FÁCIL
Si eres español o extranjero residente
en España y reúnes los requisitos para
ingresar en la Legión, [...]
-----------------------------------
Translation:
JOINING IS EASY
If you are Spanish or a foreigner residing
in Spain and meet the Legion's entry
requirements, [...]
---------------------------------------
The other requirements are: age: 18-28; height:155-203 cm.; no criminal
record; not being conscientious objector.
He couldn't even find out the actual requirements to join the Spanish Legion
online. And he made out that he could check on whether my commander officer
was genuine.
Hilarious. I said it then and I say it now.
It's not only that The Highlander can't cut the mustard, he can't even open
the jar.
Bull's Eye.
Scots are people colonized by the English.
It means that in the food chain, they can only look up.
Unfortunately shit always runs down.
Hence Michelin's irritability.
In Usenet he does no better. The archives show that behind the pompous name
of The Highlander there is a stingless bee with vestigial wings (easily
pulled off) that yields no honey and very little buzz.
.
A continuing streak one must say...
Antonio Baloney and Michelin join their mental deficits to the detriment of
the Puerto Rican people, which somehow have been brought into the thread...
The Idiots' Collateral Damage.
Great show: The stupidly blind leading the blindly stupid.
When is the last time you had a girlfriend, banjo player?
Michelin might be Scottish but his role models inhabit the hills of West
Virginia, folks.

Not in our culture he doesn't, the winner calls an ambulance and
leaves before the cops arrive. And as for a bloody nose or a few teeth
missing - in Scotland men fight with knives - in fact the government
just passed a law there forbidding people to buy swords as that seems
to be the weapon of choice these days - I agree, it's a bit too much.
Sticks? You ignorant fool!
Your ancestors copied one of the most celebrated swords in the world, the
Gladius Hispanienses, from my ancestors.
They only got the point after Hannibal took thousands of my ancestors to
your ancestors' country and put them in the front ranks in the three battles
where the flower of the Roman army ceased to exist.
Antonio Baloney: Run, don't walk to a library.
I bet you know where more than a few are buried too, you fucking
necrophiliac poof.
How do you say in polite English, "We had a great vacation; my
wife/girlfriend was fucking a waiter in Marbella beach, while I was learning
to dance flamenco."
Bravo! *clapclapclap*

Jesus God, if you're already talking about losing, you'd better sit
down and think over what you're getting yourselves into. I take this
sort of thing very seriously; Ive had far too many heroes have a go at
me ever to fool around. I'd like you to note out that I'm still here,
alive, well and fit.
As for my teeth, they were kicked out years ago, so that's no big
deal. I'll even demonstrate the famous Glasgow Kiss for you!
The Highlander indulges in Usenet bravery once again.
I would love to see him call a legionary a coward in his face.
That's something no one will ever see the banjo player do.
Miserable as it is, Michelin still values his wretched life.
All around the West Coast of Ireland and along the Welsh Coast, as the
Highlander said they had their throats slit and were bludgeoned to death, a
lot of those people did not posses the finer weapons of war. I dare say
they died most horribly and many may well have got a good shafting.

I don't need to, do I need to give you a lesson on Scipio ?
My ancestors invented the phrase "don't get angry get evening".
Bit like the Armada !
Look at it another way, those who became the masters in America were of
Scot's ancestry, from General Grant to Elvis.
They were are a bunch of Jessies in finny hat's with red tassel's on and
they cannot even march let alone fight.
Come again there are plenty of men wearing skirts in San Juan, the bars are
empty because everyone is skint and the streets are full of skinny dog's.
The men can be found pimping around the cruise liners and bumming of the
Yankee tourists.
Going slightly off track in St Lucia there is a brothel right in the middle
of a graveyard, they must have got the idea from you!

Ha! And who told you this? An Italian friend of yours? Was Italy in that
list you presented?..Should've been I think.
Listen Doggie, of course the Italian people had a strong influence in the
culture of Uruguay, but it can never be compared to the influence from
Spain... Italians came really at the beginning of the 1900's, Spain was
there since the "descovery", then it was Spanish descendents that proclaimed
the independence of the former colonies. Strong influence, yes, as I see it
here in Canada... or as you can see in New York, or Chicago, other places.
But there's no comparison.
Now, take that to be the truth.
Any other little wisdom pill from you, doggie?

Your ancestors would've done the same that to neighbouring clansmen for no
particular reason. Should I had written the word as Klansmen...yes, I think
it's better this way. But you didn't understand my indirect: your
brown-nosing coming up to deffend Wet Dog, that low-class chippie with
absence of manners.

My ancestors came to America as conquistadors, you idiot.
Hernán Cortés was born in Extremadura. Like me
He went to study at Salamanca University. Like me
He went to America to fight the locals. Like me.
And people there believed he was a god...

And a bit like Operation Dynamo, better known as the retreat to Dunkirk,
when the Huns kicked your flabby British arses. Latter on the gringos had to
come to your rescue, or else.
