Sweet triumphs
In our crew, at earlier ages, we often said we were used to losing. We were immersed in a multitude of small and big conflicts, almost always with reason and imagination, but most of the time we lost. Imagine! We were on the anti-Guggenheim platform with the slogan Guk ein. And the gaztetxe we occupy today is a nursing home. As a friend said... “Even if we lose ourselves we do so well and learn so much... win we have to be more of a Laostia!”
There have always been those around them who think it is not worth fighting. “Also to lose? What a need!” But sharing illusions, satisfaction with small achievements, sharing failures, healing wounds… That enriches us, after all, that is what fills us with the backpack.
Anti-dispersion, for example, has reached half of his life. How many initiatives? I remember 800 people on a hunger strike in Arantzazu. Given the size of our people, it is amazing! For a week so many people, so significant in fasting -- we were nowhere. In televisions, in radios and in newspapers -- zero, except the usual ones.
We have continued to demand, at least as long as they are standing, that the Basque country be officially provided in the prisons. And suddenly get it!
But until we get big wins, we've also been trained to look for slits. To solve one of the consequences of the dispersion, about 60 professors taught Euskera classes, taking the prisoners individually, by letter, some phone call, maybe some visit… The results were huge, personal (both for inmates and outsiders) and academic. We managed to introduce the Basque country through the walls. Our demand was then directed towards the official status of these studies. It would bring great benefits for the students and was also entirely fair.
But when we were in it, one of the great victories came! Dispersion ends! We don't have a habit and we struggled to believe everyone. We ask that classes be taught in person and in groups. And yes, not official studies, but first hand, with the possibility of “knowing” and touching the students! “Paw, will you have to get used to winning?”
We have continued to demand, at least as long as they are standing, that the Basque country be officially provided in the prisons. And suddenly get it!
A bittersweet victory. Because when we meet the students and now we want them even more, the door has closed. Now we want Euskaltegis. Some end inside, others during the visit and others work together. We will continue on the altar, because now we know that winning is more laostia.

It is not easy to understand what is happening in Catalonia. Certainly. We can end the 2017 process, but it remains to be seen whether independence will be able to start a new process of liberation.
If independence had been maintained in most elections, there would be another... [+]
We have been with the "summer snake" over the TAV for a few weeks and with the possibility of linking the "Basque Y" from Pamplona, from Ezkio or Vitoria.
It is disappointing to see that our People continue to depend on decisions concerned and not supported by the galgos and... [+]
The globalists have chosen France, Poland and the United Kingdom to create an open conflict with NATO in November, as the United States is engaged in the election campaign for the November Presidency.

Fortunately, most industrial companies start to understand, after the many convictions, that a small exposure to asbestos fibres, without adequate respiratory protection, is sufficient to cause a serious lung disease that causes ten times more deaths than accidents at work, even... [+]
Predicting the end of anything has become fashionable. The end of the human being, ideologies, community, authority, philosophy, or democracy. Are they labels full of sensationalism?
Maybe it was Francis Fukuyama who started that final fashion. After the collapse of the Berlin... [+]
On August 1, a dozen people from the family were in Aranguren. Two young people from Aranzadi made firsthand the excavations and works being carried out in Irulegi. This visit is highly recommended, as it reflects the dimension of the work they are doing.
Halfway, at the first... [+]

I've heard it said that the best tears are the ones that airports see. But I guess it was other tears he said, and not as I've seen during this vacation.
For several hours, tears dominated Munich airport, tears of indignation, tears of fatigue and also tears of helplessness. The... [+]
I have to go to the hairdresser,” I thought at the beginning of the course, and I didn’t go. I started with long hair and ended in the same way (halfway down the road I made a mohín and cut a piece of it. Nobody noticed. Neither do I.) It hides me if I lack the gesture and,... [+]
We Basques know that the State apparatus is prepared to take advantage of repressive forces of all colours and repressive mechanisms in all forms, in order to maintain social order within a system based on domination, even if to do so they have to infringe a law created to their... [+]
It happens many times to me: look at the news and get nervous. The France revient, they say. Both the France of Le Pen and the Spanish xenophobia and supremacy, as well as the inflatable clowns, rise again and again. Merde revient. As we have heard, a group of workers from... [+]
Until recently, the European Union (EU) was a calm sea. Everything was going well. We all lived quiet. The high-ranking officials were doing their job very well and the Europeans were happy under their orders. From time to time the peasants were going to the street to show their... [+]
Before the elections, it was a motto on everyone’s lips: "We have to put care in the center," he added. Apart from the curious and incorrect statements made by politicians and politicians, I must admit that for a while the subject was at its peak. Both parties and various... [+]
I have not followed the international competition for many years (Olympic Games, World Games…). Indifference, tiredness, pain… and I also get a little rage. And so the alternative I have left is not to see it.
The reason is not that you do not like sport or that you do not... [+]
