ETA have struck again. Today they killed a businessman called Ignacio Uria Mendizabal in the town of Azpeitia. I haven't read if he was a prominent politician or had any strong views, and I believe he didn't. Just a businessman, who happened to be one of those with involvement in the coming Basque high speed train ("La Y Vasca"). It is also possible that he refused to be blackmailed by ETA into paying the "revolutionary tax" (basically protection money). So it has come to this. ETA is no more than a mafia of criminals and have lost almost all resemblance to the revolutionaries who started the fight against Franco.
And they have the Basque Country by the balls, because the nationalists are shit scared of them and the non-nationalists have turned against the peace-loving nationalists, therefore making the situation all but impossible.
When will it stop?!
