Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Tomorrow the basque country are in Huge,in the ultimate days the spanish goverment only used the represión,baned,tortures...
Freedom for the basque country!!!
Solidarity is neccesary.
Saoirse/askatasuna!!!!!
2,000 people assembled in Bilbao to protest the recent measures taken by Spanish prosecutor Garzon against the two Basque independence parties EHAK and ANV. The Spanish supreme court did not accept all his measures but did disallow central state funding to the parties, froze their accounts & pretty much else falling short of expelling their current elected representatives from their institutional positions.
In response the Basque independence left had called for a general strike today. There was some debate as to the legality of the call - the day at end saw a few incidents, some arrests & though described by the Basque independence left as an "important echo" & "Success" it was dismissed the Basque autonomous government as "insignificant" and didn't merit any attention from the central Spanish goverment who preferred to talk about the arrest of 3 suspected Jihadists in Vitoria-Gasteiz the capital of the Basque country this morning under suspicion of raising funds for Yihad & distributing Yihadist propaganda. (link english http://www.eitb24.com/new/en/B24_86593/politics/POLICE-...ists/ ) Their case shall be of interest to anyone who has followed the jihad commandment question & is aware of a British court decision yesterday to quash convictions of 4 British muslims charged with similar offenses under section 57 of the UK Terrorism act 2000 (the "handbook" clause).
