Even right-side up, IMO. Their aims are understandable, since
they, like th Kurds, are a people split in half by a coincidence
of borders (the splitting of Navarra between France and Spain).
Their methods (terrorism and kidnapping) leave something to be
desired. Gosh knows, I'm no fan of regimes that play havoc on the
rule of law, but the Spanish have left off being a tyranny for
about 25 years now; it's time to sit at the table with the French
and the Spanish and _maybe_ talk a little, folx. Even the PLO
talks with the Israelis sometimes.
