ETA vows to continue

[dangeresque]

Basque guerrillas ETA have vowed to continue attacks on the Spanish state,
saying that last year's exploratory peace talks showed there was no point
in negotiating with the government.

In its first communication since it ended a 14-month ceasefire in June,
ETA said a peace process launched by Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis
Rodriguez Zapatero offered no political solutions and sought only the
surrender of the armed group.

The statement was published in the Basque newspaper Gara.

In recent months ETA has taken responsibility for explosions on the Tour
de France cycle route, an August car bombing of a Basque police station,
the explosion of a motor home in southern Spain in August, and an attack
last week in the La Rioja region.

Do you think they intend to win by this means, or is this just to scare the Spanish govt into negotiating again?

Their campaign isn't exactly impressive is it, and it's a lot less bloody than the Troubles.

Yeah I feel the same way.

They should take up revolutionary politics rather than collapse into backroom deal making and reformism.

It sickens me to think that the real revolutionaries in that movement have not learned from watching what hapened the provos and havent moved away from the same path they took. reformism.
