Jump To Comment: 1This article (by me not some impersonator) is a comment on the news that ETA have threatened renewed violence.
it may in due time take it place as a comment to the article
http://indymedia.ie/article/77962
Both HB and Zapatero have resonded to the last statement by ETA.
& some clarification has emerged to help us speculate whether the 5th communication since the ceasefire of March 22nd is rhetoric or sabre rattling.
For their part HB wish blame the socialist government of the Spanish state for placing obstacles in the way of the peace process.
It's been months since noted pacifist RC Belfast cleric Alec Reid joined with SF MEP's to walk the independence march circuit of the Basque.
It's also been a few years since the last ETA ceasefire and table of negotiation with the then Aznar government which occured in the same year as the orginial power sharing agreement in the northern Ireland statelet. I personally believe the comparisons between both problems is facile and serves little purpose.
To engage in the "democratisation" process ZP says, HB must rename and reconstitute and reject violence. HB accuse the state of not doing enough in its executive wing to stop the relentless judicial action on the seperatist group. The man in the illustration was put to trial together with his wife this summer. He had been extratited from France after his arrest in 2001.
On the ground in the Basque many talk of crises, but to an Irishman that seems normal - peace processes are about replacing one type of conflict with another. I can not second guess ETA. But I believe the process will continue and not too many holidays will be spoilt. A personal irony considering my better half was in the basque during the last demonstration & had her luggage robbed.
They put him in a glass box to show telly he was dangerous. He said it was a farce kickboxed the window. Look! he's dangerous they said & gave him 50 years.
