With Eta’s recent attack on the holiday island of Majorca, tourists are more worried than ever of the potential threat of terrorists to their holidays. Normally when booking a holiday to Spain, very few people consider the possibility of being targeted by Eta. And they should have no need to. It is a sad fact that, even though the Basque Country has more autonomy than any other area of Europe, Eta is still willing to kill hundreds of innocent people in it’s campaign for independence from Spain. However, this threat must not stop people from visiting Spain and its islands, or we are allowing Eta to win. We need to take a leaf out of King Juan Carlos of Spain’s book and still go on our holiday to Majorca, or any of the other Spanish islands. If fewer people visit Spain then there will be less tourism resulting in less money for the economy. And it clear from history that economic turmoil and revolution go hand-in-hand.
