Huh? Maybe all the bestiality is coming out? No, all the bestiality continues, because let’s be clear, it’s always been there since 2009, hasn’t it?

This savagery of looting, burning, and brutally and systematically repressing all opponents is exactly the signature, the trademark of this tyrannical regime.

And the situation hasn’t changed one iota since 2009: I have the guns, and you dig. The guns, the armored vehicles (sic), the tear gas. And I’ve also formed my own little militia: the gendarmerie, in this case.

That’s the situation, tompokolahy sy tompokovavy. Despite all this, a banner from the protesters caught my attention in Antaninandro.

It seems to me that says it all? When tyranny becomes law… then rebellion becomes duty. Rehefa ny jadona no manjaka, dia adidy no mitroatra.

And by the way, mitroatra is not negotiating with your oppressor’s militia to beg for a right of passage. You know perfectly well that they’ll give you a firm no.

With pseudo-negotiations, only to end up always screwing you over, isn’t that what they used to do with tear gas in Antaninandro?

You use the word rebellion: so use that word in its full meaning, especially when you’re facing barbarians who don’t hesitate to use their weapons against your “tana polo.”

I’m not describing what should be done; you’re old enough to Google what needs to be done. And to know that monetary advantage will always prevail over petty thugs, even those armed to the teeth.

The mafia on the other side won’t give up their power so easily. But faced with tens of thousands of protesters, what can this handful of militiamen do? The FRS thought they were all-powerful in 1972, too.

Yes, these are battles you will have to fight if you want to put an end to this tyranny once and for all.

Learn from each battle and readjust your aim (so to speak). That General who lost his temper in Ambatonakanga is proof that you’re giving them a hard time.

That’s the real tolona to win your freedom. Your freedom to live with dignity every day with water and electricity. Your freedom to express yourself. Your freedom to move, etc.

But let all this not hide your big victory of the day: access to Ambohijatovo. A symbolic access that demonstrates that nothing is impossible in the face of tyranny and dictatorship.

Simply review your strategy for the coming days, and unfortunately, you have to face the facts: you’ll have to toughen it up. I’m not at all familiar with your manga “One Piece,” but after a quick Google search, I came across this.

A pirate doesn’t ask permission to board a ship, does he? We agree.
