ETA *suspected*?

Well, you gotta read between the lines here: Portugese authorities up to now have always categorically denied that ETA might be operating from their terrain and hence did not see any reason to take any acton (like in "Shark": "Look, we have a major tourist business here to take care of, want us to ruin that??").

So, now they suddenly find a terrorist logistic center left alone, windows open and lights burning, one week after a Spanish police control, with the suspects named Andoni Zengotitabengoa Fernández and Oier Gómez Mielgo, names more Basque you won´t get, but of cause, they might also have been Arabs just posing as Basques, no?

BS, and the earlier they admit ETA is working from their terrain, the faster the story ends for those crooks.

Still, hats off to the one Portugese police guy who finally answered the 70th consecutive neighbour alert within 5 days, and even actively, raising institutional alarm and starting procedures! You saved some lives, probably, man! Seriously, give him a medal!

He'll probably get fired and have his pension removed.
Spain might want to consider taking care of him.
Never knew about this sort of deal regarding ETA and Portugal.
