Can we, the Spaniards, trust our Government?
On the past two days, Sunday and Monday, the second most read newspaper in Spain has published an interview with Mr Zapatero, our Prime Minister after 11-M (That's how we call that terrible day instead of 03/11, the English way).
His policy regarding internal affairs has been to negotiate with the local terrorist group, ETA, to give up weapons. ETA victims have not been taken into account in his policy, it just mattered terrorists claims, but victims looking for justice have been a terrible headache for our Government over the last three years, when Mr Zapatero begun to say he was willing to free from jail ETA criminals, to let them return to our regional Parliaments and city Councils even not complying with one sentence from Spanish Supreme Court judging as belonging to ETA some political parties.
That happened by the end of 2005 and victim's opposition to Mr Zapatero's internal affairs policy increased as the political benefits to terrorists became apparent. By march 2006 ETA said they would never kill again, but by 2006 ending, a terrible attack against Madrid airport, Barajas, killed two people.
After that, Mr Zapatero told negotiations finished there, his Internal Affairs Minister did so and many other Ministers from our Government, though their behaviour didn't show it was credible.
Yesterday, in that interview, Mr Zapatero says he went on negotiating for several months after Madrid airport attack.
A now these question arise:
Why should we relay on him?
Why not thinking he still negotiates with terrorists?
Would he be doing the same in the international scenario?
Keep an eye on Spain, I believe 11M consequences are about to fall over all of us and it will impact deeply beyond our borders.
By next 03/09 we have a new elections day.
