Message: Entry: Which Scots conservatism: unionist or nationalist? Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/which_scots_conservatism_unionist_or_nationalist#26947 Post contents: Hermano Woody...Pues, si, por supuesto! I've read some place that when Queen Victoria died at the turn of the century broadsides were posted at the gates of Buckingham, proclaiming the de jure ascension of the Wittelsbach claimant...but the incident in World War I is new to me. As Rupprecht did not command the main front (his forces faced the lower Lorraine),I would think that most of the opposing troops would have been French....but it's an interesting story. By the way, the Comunion Tradicionalist Carlista (CTC) has a handsome website, sponsors several "universities" for college and high school aged folks; holds extensive youth training camps; publishes several respected journals; and has now a practical political presence in Spain, doubling its small share of the vote in the recently completed elections. Although much smaller today as a force than in previous years, the Archbishop of Pamplona recently blessed their efforts to overturn Spain's abortion laws and specifically specifically stated that their views concorded with Mother Church's. The foul socialism of Zapatero has brought a strong upturn in membership and support to Carlism, which is Europe's oldest, continuous political/dynastic movement (dating from 1833 directly, and even earlier if one counts pre-Carlist movements in Spain in the 1820s and earlier). I am glad to say that friends that I made in Spain thirty years ago, and their children, are still active, waiting for the day when once again Spain will call them forth. Sent at: 2008 08 29
