This is a story about the repression experienced by the Basques, particularly by the spanish government.

The Spanish government accuses any Basque entity which encourages the use of Basque language, or who speak out for Basque political rights, as being terrorist. It is not unusual---it happens everyday. This latest closing of the newspaper Egunkaria has just gone too far, though. ... read full story / add a comment
