message: I think the eagle is 'eryr gwyn' rather than 'eryr wen'. I have changed the article accordingly. However, there is a slim chance i'm wrong.

Dear XXXX,
" Social engineering and misinformation for sure." - Unfortunately not : their symbol has been picked up and is used by far-right groups.
I myself have confronted those who have been abusing it and have been threatened with violence : The Free Wales Army are different.
The origins of The White Eagle on The Black Flag and The Black Eagle on The White Flag - the latter arguably The White Faction's Flag - ?
--------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harri_Webb - designed and presumably made the original and first White Eagle flag as a pageant prop.
The pageant involved references to a medieval poem in which a prophecy will be fulfilled when The White Eagle re-appears over Eryri.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowdonia - the last stronghold of The Welsh in The North when The Norman-French conquered Wales.
Harri Webb gave the pageant's flag as a prop to The Free Wales Army who can be argued to have begun as a Situationist protest group.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Wales_Army - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situationist_International - we talk to them at Cilmeri.
We do a bit of Situationalism - http://repwblic.informe.com/yr-ardystiad-campaign-against-the-treason-felony-act-1848-dt438-20.html
--------------
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giles_Calvert - printed most of the Republican radical literature " at the sign of The Black Spread Eagle "
" The Black Spread Eagle " was painted on his shop's white sign - https://www.calverts.coop/at-the-sign-of-the-black-spread-eagle/
" The Black Spread Eagle " was the arms of The Holy Roman Empire and was used to refer to The Commonwealth in England and Wales.
" The Eagle " on Harri Webb's flag was fussy and complicated : The Free Wales Army reduced it to the easily depicted geometric symbol.
----------------
The " Mil " symbol is depicted on " Y Repwblic " using the three ASCII symbols " >|< " and we also depict our " Civ " symbol using " /|\ "
The " >|< " symbol excites many imaginations - people denote their sympathies by rendering it in different colours other that the FWA's
The " /|\ " symbol excites many imaginations and it has been established as a symbol for over two hundred years in different colours.
" The Republicans in The Parade " have been dressed in mourning for over two hundred years - " Black + White >|< " is not Neo-Nazi !
" Neo-Nazis " have been showing up at Republican parades displaying " Black + White >|< " apparently believing The FWA to be The SS.
" Civ " started warning " Mil " that they were placing us all at risk by tolerating this misuse of " Black + White >|< " over a decade ago.
If you have the opportunities please explain this present situation to The People in The USA and The World - " >|< " is not " terrorist."
Yours Sincerely,
David B. Lawrence = Dai Saw = dai repwblic
