:Perhaps I haven't made myself clear enough. You, and presumably a large number of other people, feel that the Basque people deserve a state of their own. You're entitled to feel that way. I don't know enough about the Basque situation to have an opinion myself. I think the suppression of cultures is generally a very bad thing. The only thing I'm trying to say is that the Basque people don't have an internationally-recognised state as their homeland at this point in time. This, in your opinion, is an injustice. That may well be the case, but it is a fact. --Robert Merkel
