What are the motives of the ETA (Euskadi Ta Askatasuna)?I've been doing a little research on the ETA, and I know that they're a terrorist group,...

The goals of ETA can be pretty well summed up by the
English translation of the group's name.  The name, in English, is Basque Land and
Liberty.  That is exactly what ETA believes that it is fighting
for.

The Basques are an ethnic group without their own
country.  They are native to the Pyrenees Mountains which are partly in Spain and partly
in France.  Basque people live in both countries but are ethnically different than
either the French or the Spanish.  In fact, their language is not even an Indo-European
language and is, therefore, not related to any other language in
Europe.

Because of their ethnic and linguistic differences,
the Basques have long wanted to be separate from the countries in which they live.  This
desire is especially strong in the larger Spanish part of the Basque country.  ETA has
been conducting a terrorist war in an attempt to get the Spanish government to grant
independence to Euskadi--the Basque country.
