1:14:02
go to work with bodyguards.
What kind of country is this?
1:14:05
People are afraid,
very, very afraid.
1:14:17
We must respect and defend
anyone who is threatened.
1:14:21
But you can't live off
the fact of being threatened,
1:14:25
so we must then analyze
their arguments.
1:14:28
The intellectuals who left...
1:14:30
I wish the intellectuals
had taken a firmer stand.
1:14:33
Some were threatened.
1:14:35
Others thought they might be,
and perhaps were right.
1:14:38
More discussion
and less propaganda.
1:14:41
But others have taken advantage
of the situation.
1:14:44
I wouldn't go that far.
1:14:46
You can't ask people
to be objective
1:14:49
when they are suffering
the terrible impact
1:14:52
of this political violence.
1:14:54
I believe there are some
"official" victims of threats,
1:14:58
they're almost professionals,
1:15:00
while others are also threatened
but don't talk about it.
1:15:03
I don't know if they take
advantage of it or not.
1:15:06
But I do believe that other people
can take advantage of them.
1:15:10
Power has got a tremendous
capacity for absorption,
1:15:13
for manipulating things.
1:15:23
ETA announced a year-long truce
between 1998 and 1999
1:15:29
You, in the PP, think
you're going to bring us peace
1:15:33
by means of
a police victory over ETA.
1:15:35
We're sick of military victories.
1:15:38
ETA held an 18-month truce,
1:15:41
even though they broke it
with their usual blindness.
1:15:45
The very minute that
ETA announced its truce,
1:15:46
Mayor Oreja,
the Minister of the Interior,
1:15:49
immediately announced
that it was a trick.
1:15:52
If there had been a statesman...
1:15:54
It's possible that, at that point,
ETA would have ceased.
1:15:58
There was one point on which
to base a continuing truce.
