@Sapphi Snake. You do realise there are also non-violent Basque seperatists? They have a very different identity than the Castillians.

They may be non-violent NOW, but a separatist is a separatist, and the fact of the matter is that some of them have formed a terrorist groupv that kills innocent people and demands that Spain give up territories that belong to it. Separatst attitudes are dangerous.

So I take it you're also against Tibet being an independent nation? It is, afterall, essentially the same sort of idea.

Well, the Tibetan people may be better off not being part of China (for obvious reasons), but the Basque can't make such a claim.

I disagree, as far as they're concerned they are ruled by a foreign power. Wouldn't you be pissed if Romania was ruled from Hungary?

Considering Romania has twice the population of Hungary, provided there was a Democratic regime instilled, we'd be ruling them!

Yes, just like Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA or UCK) in Balkans

Exactly.


Yay, you agreed on something

Amazing, isn't it?

I realised that when I posted it, it's not my fault you're so large =P

You get the point though, so hypothetically if Hungary had a bigger population or Romania a smaller one. Would you be pissed and want independence if you were ruled from Hungary?

Hehe, I bet the size of it impresses you. Not all guys can awknowledge something like this.

 

And Hungary actually did rule part of Romania once. Their main mistake was treating Romanians as second class citizens. As long as I have all the rights and liberties as any other citizen (and it's a Democracy, not some dicatorship), I don't much care if another country annexes Romania. I don't need to live in country called Romania and I don't need to speak a language called Romanian in order to be happy.

The same could be said for collectivist attitudes.

I'd say there have likely been more wars waged on the principle of uniting then the principal of dividing.

Aside from which, if a majority of an area wants too... why should a group of people be forced to assositate with other groups they do not wish to?

And while more wars were waged on the principle of "uniting", most terrorists actions are done on the basis of dividing.

What pretence do those people have the land they wish to claim their own?

I wonder if that's true.

The largest terrorist groups now are either about overthrowing the government,(Taliban) creating there one world goverment ("Islamic" terrorists who want world wide islamic law) or creating specific changes in the certain government. (Eco Terrorists.)

 

Even most "seperating" terrorists have elements of "uniting".   See the Kurdish terrorists who want to create a nation that involves parts Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria.

Nevermind the fact that most "sperating terrorists" were created soley by collectivist wars of agression.

 

Even Hamas, who is a Palestine liberation terrroist groups real goal is to wipe out and conquer Israel.
