Yesterday the fascist spanish government decided to spit on the face of the international community and closed down Egunkaria, the only news paper in Euskal Herria that is printed in euskara. The accusation is the old boring "apology of terrorism".
Which means that the director Otamendi and 10 of his editors and journalists will be held with no right to talk to their lawyers for five days before charges are brought up to the court. All the offices for the news paper were closed and the computers and documents seized, their web page both in euskara and english was shut down and this comes right after scores of Basque citizens where detained for the high crime of participating in demonstrations in pro of self determination and defense of the euskara.
And Spain is considered a democracy in the US.
Wake up and smell the coffee!
