Pais vasco is a part of spain that wants to be "liberated" although noone's opressing them.
So they do all sort of terrorist actions in order to become a "free" state. A bask is someone from pais vasco and ETA is their "liberation" organization. ie, a terrorist group..
No one has no proof it was really eta though, so that's why I suspect you'll hear bush lullying about al quaida or whichever arab...

Bush lying wouldn't make any sense, his reputation is damaged now because they suspect it was the Al Quaida (what with the tape and everything) and will now loose Spain's support when he already was short on allies.
So I doubt Bush set up the concept that it may have been the Arabs. But I do find the whole Arab set up with the tape suspicious because it had the ETA's fingerprints all over it, using the materials they always use. If it smells like ETA and looks like it ETA.. it probably is...
Odds are we'll never know.
I don't know the exact situation with the basks but I think it's dangerous to label an entire people terrorists, not all basks support what the ETA does and since sept. 11th most opressing countries have gotten a free hand in declaring any freedom fighter organisation terrorists, like Russia and Chechnya or Indonesia and many of the islands that would like to seperate from Indonesia. Which ARE opressed people, which is not to say I condone violence on any scale in any way or that I believe that the basks are being opressed in any way shape or form because I'm sort of assuming there'd be some form of media attention for the situation of the basks before and since the whole ordeal in Madrid. Spain is to poor to opress anyone anyway and they've already been through the whole dictatorship deal.
Just now I hear on the news that Spain is withdrawing their troops from Iraq, so I doubt Bush is happy that they think Al Quaida did it now...

Hear hear. And paranoid as I am, now I suspect that the PSOE supported whichever terrorist group was behind it just to win the election... O_o
But like I said, I'm paranoid....
It's a great big white world.

You might even suspect anti- war protestors cause they knew then the election outcome would change and Spain would leave Iraq, which I don't agree to be the best solution. Once you start a war finish the shit you started cause if we all pull out of Iraq now it's going to turn into an abandoned country like Afghanistan and then we'll have a whole new set of problems with lots of angry Iraqi's feeling abandoned.
There's much to be said against Saddam but at least he had the fundamentalists on a strong leash (aka in front of a firing squad).
But who'd wanna leave all that oil anyway?
I get the paranoia Whyatt, these days you don't know who the hell to trust. In the US they're actually starting an investigation into the Bush government because they make television items about things like their healthcare policy which t.v. station are paid to air as 'news items' eventhough the journalists in these items are actors and the whole thing was sponsored and written by the government. They're going to invistigate whether this might classify as propaganda or not.
In one of my classes they also showed the US invasion of Somalia a couple of years ago which happened on a beach at a very strange hour in Somalia which was actually US prime. There's also this huge advertisement agency that helped 'promote' the last two Gulf Wars, during the first (actually second, Iran- Iraq was the first) war there was a lady on t.v. claiming the Iraqi's had even taken the babies out of maternal care units in the hospitals and left them to die. Research showed she was the daughter of embassador of Kuwait and wasn't even in the country when Iraq invaded it. During the last war any journalist trying to work in Iraq without using the US Army satellite network was arrested and deported out of the country.

Facist?
Nope
Religious Moralist? YES
And unfourtunatly we in the US can do without that shit right now.
As a general rule highly religious folk tend to be very much "I'm right, your wrong, goto hell!" and Bush fits that description pretty damm well.
Does that put Bush on the same level of bin Laden and his elk? No. Last I knew Bush hasnt gone off and ordered the execution of all Muslims in the world.
Personally I do think Bush was correct in ordering the Military to invade Iraq (which of course Bush's main reason, WMD's, was total bullshit) no matter the consequences. One look at the UN Security Council tells you who was "benefiting" from Sadam staying in power (for the last 11 years) and who would loose out if the US went in and kicked the Bathists out power.
I do however think the Spanish People really screwed themeselves over in the long run. I can understand their pain and fear because it wasnt to long ago I was listening on the radio and watching on TV as 2 thousand of fellow citizens (give or take since ive now forgotten the exact number) died between the point of two planes striking some buildings and the said buildings collapsing while police and firmen where trying to save lives. I remember by the end of the day all the government representatives being told to go home and a few Marine officers that where on site working on contracts with us at the time mentioning that someones ass is going to fry. Now THAT is scary shit.
But right now I'm sitting here and looking at Spains reaction. Election of a government that is more intrested in playing politics than helping out in a country that needs all the help it can get? If Al Queda or one of the other Islamic terrorist groups is behind the bombings then basically the Spanish people just rewarded them. Who knows. But it's obvious what I think. I hope I'm wrong.

I have a question for all of you. You've all made very clear and good points, but you all still seem shocked or appalled by the committed acts of violence. Why in this day age when it has finally become so clear that Humanity has been preparing to wipe itself out since they first took up the club, would violence still shock or appall you?

Cause after all we're still human? Death and destruction still can get to us. I mean, I'm a big cynic but I still have feelings. Rage being one of them.. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Also, I happen to live in such a protected environment that I can pretty much ignore all the wars, genocides and famine if I want to until it gets smacked in my face like that. And most of the time I'm too occupied with tying my own strings together to pay any emotional notice to what happens in the "far-away" world. That's basically also why I get so thoroughly pissed off when something like this happens close to home...
Basically, it's just another thing when it "could have been you".
Oh well..
