Basque Separatist Headed Back to Prison
2007-06-07
MADRID, Spain (AP) - A Basque separatist rebel convicted in 25 deaths was returned to prison Wednesday, after recuperating in a hospital from a hunger strike, officials said. The move came a day after the Basque ETA group announced an end to a 15-month cease-fire, Spanish authorities said.
Back in the klink wit yez!
The possibility had been raised that Jose Ignacio de Juana Chaos could go home to serve out the rest of his prison term under police surveillance, but Interior Minister Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba said in a radio interview that with the cease-fire over, that was out of the question. ``It is evident that circumstances have changed with respect to that moment. The state has to be firm and intelligent, dealing with the new circumstances,'' Rubalcaba said.

De Juana Chaos has already served 18 years after being convicted in 25 deaths in a series of ETA attacks and now faces the last 14 months of a separate, three-year term for newspaper articles that were deemed to be terrorist threats. He was declared healthy again and taken Wednesday from a hospital where he had been recovering from a 114-day hunger strike to Aranjuez prison, south of Madrid.

#2  Don't think for one minute that ETA, FARC, IRA, et.al. are not allied with AQ. Just like the black suited Bibendums in Rostock "Basta" - they are all pretty much anarachists who give a rat's ass about who they associate with as long as that group has ways to kill indiscrimately.

#1  Recovering from144 day hunger strike.

The limit for hunger strike before you die is two months and well before that you cannot move. After nearlyfour months of "hunger strike" this guy was doing gymnastics and fucking his girl-friend who through orders from the governement was allowed acess to him without being searched.

Two sentcnes from this courageous freedom fighter: "We should ally with the Islamists. In one week they would force the Spaniards to evacuate the Basque country"

The other one is:

"I liike to see the faces the teras andfaces discomposed from pain fromthje realtives at the burials of the victims."
