Bhuel! b\u2019in mar a thuigeamar c\u00farsa\u00ed, go dt\u00ed gur chuir David Trimble ar an eolas muid, ar na mallaibh. Chuir David ar \u00e1r s\u00faile d\u00fainn \u00e9, nach raibh ionainn ach, mar a chuir s\u00e9 fh\u00e9in \u00e9, agus \u00e9 ag iarraidh ar a chomhleacaithe, Aontachtaithe Uladh, daonlathas na R\u00edochta Aontaithe a chur i gcompar\u00e1id lena raibh le f\u00e1il \u00f3 dheas uathu, ar an dtaobh eile den Teoriann.

An nd\u00e9antar iarracht ar bith na postanna uilig anseo a choinne\u00e1il do Chaitlicigh amh\u00e1in?

N\u00ed d\u00f3igh liom gur mar sin at\u00e1, n\u00f3 m\u00e1 sea, n\u00edor thug m\u00e9 fh\u00e9in faoi deara riamh \u00e9, ach ansin, nach Caitliceach mise, agus b\u2019fh\u00e9idir go n-oirfeadh s\u00e9 dom, gan a leith\u00e9id a thabhairt faoi deara! An nd\u00e9antar iarracht anseo, ar ph\u00e1ist\u00ed chreidimh ar bith a choinne\u00e1il \u00f3na scola\u00edocht, i scoil d\u00e1 gcreideamh fh\u00e9in, agus an nd\u00e9antar iad a mhasl\u00fa, agus a ionsa\u00ed, fan an bhealaigh, d\u00e1 mbeadh s\u00e9 de dh\u00e1na\u00edocht iontu, iarracht a dh\u00e9anamh freastal ar an scoil sin? N\u00ed h\u00e9 mo thuairim go dtarl\u00f3dh a leith\u00e9id anseo sa Deisceart, ach ar\u00eds, n\u00ed fh\u00e9adfainn a r\u00e1, nach bhf\u00e9adfadh a leith\u00e9id a tharl\u00fa riamh. Ach, b\u2019fh\u00e9idir go dtuigeann an tUasal Trible na c\u00farsa\u00ed sin, i bhfad n\u00edos fearr, n\u00e1 mar a thuigtear iad, anseo sa Phoblacht. Bhi m\u00e9 ag caint le mo shean chara, S\u00e9im\u00ed an Droichid, faoi na c\u00farsa\u00ed seo, agus ba \u00e9 ad\u00fairt seisean, n\u00f3 gur mar sin ab fhearr le Trimble c\u00farsa\u00ed a bheith, anseo in \u00e1r meascna, ach i nd\u00e1ir\u00edre, gurbh \u00e9 an Tuaisceart, a dh\u00fathaigh fh\u00e9in, a bh\u00ed i gceist aige, agus na hachas\u00e1in sin \u00e1 gcaitheamh aige linn, agus gur maith an t\u00e9 a bh\u00ed ag tabhairt na n-achas\u00e1n uaidh! Is trua, ar bhealach, n\u00e1r thug s\u00e9 sampla\u00ed d\u00fainn den seicteachas \u00fad a bh\u00ed idir cham\u00e1in aige, sa tsl\u00ed go bhf\u00e9adfaimis t\u00f3irse an taighde a dh\u00edri\u00fa orthu, f\u00e9achaint an bhf\u00e9adfa\u00ed cosa a chur f\u00fathu. <\/p>

Ach scaoilimis tharainn an t-achas\u00e1n sin, agus iompa\u00edmis ar an d\u00e1 cheann eile, an \u201cmono-ethnic\u201d,<\/strong> agus an \u201cmono-cultural state<\/strong>\u201d at\u00e1 in ainm is a bheith againn, ar an dtaobh seo den Teorainn. Is d\u00f3cha gurb \u00e9 an chiall a bheadh leis na t\u00e9arma \u201cmono-ethnic\u201d, n\u00f3 nach raibh le f\u00e1il anseo ach aon chine amh\u00e1in, sin n\u00f3 nach gceada\u00edtear do chine ar bith eile teacht agus c\u00f3na\u00ed a dh\u00e9anamh in \u00e1r measc anseo. An bhfuil cosa faoin r\u00e1iteas sin? M\u00e1 bhreathna\u00edonn duine go fuarch\u00faiseach ar an gc\u00faiseamh sin, feicfidh s\u00e9, go bhfuil daoine \u00f3 chin\u00edocha eile ag cur f\u00fathu anseo in \u00e1r measc, agus go bhfuil daoine \u00f3 chin\u00edocha eile, ag teacht chugainn, chuile l\u00e1, ag iarraidh tearmann a fh\u00e1il anseo in \u00e1r measc. Ar an dtaobh eile den sc\u00e9al, is d\u00f3cha, go bhf\u00e9adfadh duine a r\u00e1, nach gcuirtear F\u00e1ilte U\u00ed Cheallaigh roimh roinnt \u00e1irithe de na daoine c\u00e9anna sin, n\u00f3 is pobal oile\u00e1nach sinn, agus is pobal beag sinn, freisin. Pobal a chaith na cianta fada faoi smacht ag cine \u00f3n dtaobh amuigh, agus cine a mh\u00fain d\u00fainn, b\u2019fh\u00e9idir, conas cin\u00edochas a oibri\u00fa agus a chleachtadh go h\u00e9ifeachtach! Nuair a chuireann t\u00fa na c\u00fains\u00ed sin san \u00e1ireamh, feictear duit, go bhfuil an-iarracht \u00e1 d\u00e9anamh againn anseo, a bheith fial, f\u00e1ilteach, comharsan\u00fail, roimh an strains\u00e9ar, agus d\u00e9arfainn go bhfuil ag \u00e9ir\u00ed go r\u00e9as\u00fanta maith linn, dul chun cinn a dh\u00e9anamh sna c\u00farsa\u00ed sin, le tamall de bhlianta anuas. Agus, d\u00e9anta na f\u00edrinne, t\u00e1 roinnt mhaith t\u00edortha eile a bhf\u00e9adfa\u00ed an rud c\u00e9anna a r\u00e1 f\u00fathu. Ar an dtaobh eile den sc\u00e9al, n\u00ed d\u00f3igh liom, go bhfuiltear ag d\u00e9anamh cineghlanadh, \u00e1it ar bith sa t\u00edr seo, rud nach bhf\u00e9adfa\u00ed a r\u00e1 faoi \u00e1iteacha \u00e1irithe eile. B\u2019fh\u00e9idir anois, nach gcuirtear aon r\u00f3-fh\u00e1ilte roimh chraobh d\u00e1r gcine fh\u00e9in, roimh an lucht taistil, agus b\u2019fh\u00e9idir go bhfuil ceachtanna le foghlaim, ar an d\u00e1 thaobh, faoi mheas a bheith againn ar ghort na gcomharsan. Agus c\u00e9ard faoin \u201cmono-cultural\u201d \u00fad a luaigh an tUasal Trimble linn? Cinnte t\u00e1 daoine sa t\u00edr seo, ar mhaith leo, d\u00e1 mbeadh an fh\u00edrinne aige sa mh\u00e9id sin, n\u00f3 is d\u00f3cha gurb \u00e9 sin an chusp\u00f3ir a chuireadar r\u00f3mpu, \u00f3 bhun\u00fa Chonradh na Gaeilge anuas, ach, don t\u00e9 a bhreathn\u00f3dh ar an saol, mar at\u00e1 s\u00e9, n\u00ed d\u00f3igh liom, go bhf\u00e9adfadh s\u00e9 ma\u00edomh, go f\u00edrinneach, gur st\u00e1t aonchult\u00fair at\u00e1 againn anseo, n\u00f3 d\u2019fheicfeadh s\u00e9, gan str\u00f3 ar bith, go raibh cult\u00fair \u00e9ags\u00fala \u00f3n iasacht, ag br\u00fa isteach orainne freisin, faoi mar a tharla\u00edonn ina st\u00e1t fh\u00e9in, \u00f3 thuaidh, n\u00f3 an mbeadh s\u00e9 s\u00e1sta st\u00e1t a thabhairt ar Thuaisceart \u00c9ireann? N\u00ed h\u00e9 mo thuairim go mbeadh.<\/p>

Anois, m\u00e1 t\u00e1 s\u00e9 chomh soil\u00e9ir sin d\u00fainne anseo, nach raibh Mr. Trimble ag breathn\u00fa isteach i gcro\u00ed na f\u00edrinne, agus na masla\u00ed \u00fad \u00e1 scaoileadh thar teorainn uaidh aige, tuige ar bhac s\u00e9 leo, in aon chor? Bhuel, t\u00e1 daoine ann ad\u00e9arfadh, go raibh s\u00e9 ag labhairt lena mhuintir fh\u00e9in, Aontachtaithe Uladh, agus gur beag rud a raghadh i gcionn ar an bpobal sin chomh m\u00f3r le Poblacht \u00c9ireann a dh\u00edspeagadh. Deir daoine eile, gur seanchleas polait\u00edochta \u00e9, namhaid seachtrach a ionsa\u00ed, nuair a theasta\u00edonn uait do lucht lean\u00fana fh\u00e9in, sa bhaile, a aont\u00fa taobh thiar d\u00edot. D\u2019fheadfadh cuid den cheart a bheith ag an d\u00e1 dhream sin, ach ba \u00e9 tuairim Mh\u00e1rtan a\u2019 Tairbh, ba mh\u00f3 a chuaigh i gcionn orm fh\u00e9in, an o\u00edche faoi dheireadh.<\/p>

C\u00e9n tuairim a bh\u00ed aigesean, an ea?<\/p>

Bhuel, ar seisean, ar thug t\u00fa faoi deara, go raibh Reifreann faoin dTeorainn \u00e1 lorg ag Mr. Trimble, don bhliain seo chugainn, tr\u00e1th a mbeidh toghch\u00e1n ar si\u00fal, \u00f3 thuaidh, acu freisin, agus m\u00e1 theasta\u00edonn uaidh an d\u00e1 thr\u00e1 sin a fhreastal, caithfidh s\u00e9 ding a thiom\u00e1int, go doimhin, idir an d\u00e1 phobal \u00f3 thuaidh.

Nach \u00ed sin an ding. Nach \u00ed sin an tsl\u00ed le hAontachtaithe Uladh a ghr\u00edosadh chun gn\u00edmh i gcoinne dhuine ar bith a bheadh s\u00e1sta a dh\u00edlseacht a dhearbh\u00fa don Phoblacht s\u2019againne. Sea, agus chuirfeadh s\u00e9 Aontachta\u00ed ar bith, a bh\u00ed ag smaoineamh ar athaont\u00fa na t\u00edre seo, chuirfeadh s\u00e9 ar a fhaichill \u00e9, ag eagla go sleamhn\u00f3dh s\u00e9 a v\u00f3ta isteach i mbosca na n\u00e1isi\u00fanach, agus na bpoblachtach. Agus nach bhfuil taobh eile ar an sceal sin freisin? M\u00e1 theasta\u00edonn \u00f3 Mr. Trimble, agus a ph\u00e1irt\u00ed lucht lean\u00fana Phaisley a mhealladh chuige, caithfidh se \u00e9ada\u00ed an ph\u00e1irt\u00ed sin a ghoid, agus a chaitheamh, agus m\u00e1s \u00e9 sin an plean, nach bhfuil t\u00fas maith curtha leis an obair acu, cheana fh\u00e9in, le haguis\u00edn \u00fad an Trimbileach?<\/p>

D\u00faisigh na seand\u00edlseachta\u00ed, agus \u00e9ireoidh leat. Sin an mana. Coinnigh a bhfuil agat, agus cuid Ph\u00e1id\u00edn den mheacan ag an dtaobh eile.<\/p>
