A VAN packed with explosives blew up outside a police station in Durango, in Spain's Basque country yesterday, shattering windows, destroying cars and injuring two police officers in the first serious attack by the separatist group ETA since it called off a ceasefire in June.
Unusually, ETA gave no phone warning of the attack.

If the Spainards were not cowards and changed their votes after the trains were bombed years ago allowing that numpty president to win which caused the withdraw of their troops from Iraq they would not be having these problems now.

#1
Two different problems - the Basques and the war in Iraq.

The article is about the Basque problem.

I don't think the Spaniards are cowards but I do think they have unpleasant memories of their civil war.

#1, well said. #2 does not remember how the election swinged the other way after the bombing of the trains and the coward who was going up against the incumbant said he would pull his troops out of Iraq.
