Bomb in Madrid Airport - More

Continuing with our previous posts Bomb in Madrid Airport, and Bomb in Madrid Airport - Consequences, we have to confirm that two Ecuadorian were killed by ETA.

Ecuador

The two main political parties (PSOE and PP) are at this moment arguing the next "strategy" to adopt.
It seems that Government (PSOE) would rather keep up with the "process of peace", though it is not clear at all.
Main opposition (PP) is eager to forget about any so-called "dialogue" with terrorists.
Meanwhile, all over Spain there have been "minutes of silence" in memory of the dead, and demonstrations in the streets. To this regard, Basque government has called for "official demonstration", on next saturday, with the motto "peace and dialogue". Once more, opposition has stressed that nothing is to be "dialogued" with terrorists.
We understand that "peace and dialogue" is a certainly a worse motto than, for example, "freedom and justice". "Peace and dialogue" involves something of a surrender to terrorists claims; "freedom and justice" gives an idea of law and order.
Finally, we would like to point out the lack of justification of a "dialogue" with terrorists.
We do not understand why terrorists deserve a right to negotiate. It terrorists had this right, what about any other criminal? We do not see governments "dialoguing" with thieves, drunk drivers, sexual harassers... Are they any worse than terrorists?Is it that "the worse the better"?

Perhaps, thieves are not sufficiently organized.
Perhaps, a "separatist rapist" deserves a better status than a non-separatist rapist.

Do not think so.
