Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

In Europe we have about 15% of authoritarian voters across countries, so I don't find it surprising that 20-23% of settlers are willing to fight their own country if they feel betrayed. 50% of ETA actions happen in the Basque country, and they hate the Ertzaintza (Basque police) as much as they hate the Spanish Guardia Civil. Israel may have to go through their own version of the French decolonization of Algeria, OAS. After all, these people have already assassinated one Prime Minister.

A society committed to the notion that government is always bad will have bad government. And it doesn't have to be that way. — Paul Krugman
