...we had no doubt that we had to continue the fight. Anything else would have been abject surrender. Our problem, My Lord, was not whether to fight, but was how to continue the fight... ~ Nelson Mandela attesting in court in 1963. In our case as Swazis we must not expect to be given our freedom on a silver plate but we have to fight for it, like it or not, thats why ANC after discovering that the white government refused to hear their grievances, they then formed Umkhonto wesizwe to counter attack the whites using of army to silence them. After all we have been labeled terrorists (a title we dont deserve) we dont need to hold back as clearly there is nothing to protect as our reputation has been dented already. Now is the time we continue the fight for our democracy anything else would be an abject surrender. We need revolution now! Shall we demand from our various political party leaders to outline a proper plan(that will involve all the members) that will leads us (or our next generation) to our desired destination? we need to get the wheel rolling before we go to sleep to our graves. yes we are going to sleep peacefully knowing that we played our part which will see our next generation able to live with equal opportunities. We have seen many unconstitutional changes of government in this continent in the past, it wont be new with us...Madagascar has done it, Morocco has done it, Tunisia has done it, Egypt etc.
