- Simular to the I.R.A. in there aims but pathetic in terms of their publicity,size and actual willingness to fight for independance.--Fenian Swine 03:08, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
- Good. I don't want Wales becoming a violent place like Ireland. It's a nice place, but nothing to fight over. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Communisthamster (talk • contribs) 21:15, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Clywedog Dam
MAC were widely suspected to have been behind the bombing of the Clywedog dam construction site in 1966. I think a mention of this attack would be warranted in this article however I do not know enough about the incident or MAC in general to edit the article myself. Canderra 10:06, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Where was the bombing?
Regarding the guys that blew themselves up. The Welsh nationalism article says:
- On the eve of the investiture two members of MAC, Alwyn Jones and George Taylor, died as the bomb they were planting on the railway line to be used by the Royal Train exploded.
This article says:
- On 30 June 1969, the evening before the investiture, two members of MAC, Alwyn Jones and George Taylor, were killed when a bomb they had been intending to place in government offices in Abergele exploded prematurely.
Which is correct? --88.111.33.202 16:52, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
As a resident of Abergele at the time the bomb exploded, the deaths occurred behind the library and the comment at the time was "It destroyed a few Tiles (Shingles) on the library wall".Both the library and the local government building a hundred yards behind it (For which the bomb was probably intended)had tiles fixed to the lower section of the building up to ground floor window level.
