ETA and the Challenge of "Direct Action"

bers, as well as provided the settings for some of the group's most striking actions. ETA's targets, when not actually officials of the Spanish State, have been symbolic representatives of Basque industry, either objects (radio towers, trains, au-tomobiles, factories, banks), or people (noted Basque in-dustrialists or financiers, like Felipe Huarte or Javier de Ybarra).

The technological base of industrial society has also pro-vided a supportive logistical setting for ETA's activities. The organization has apparently never had difficulty acquiring the most sophisticated smali arms, automatic weapons, or ex-plosives available. They seem to show a special liking for the 7.65 mm pistol manufactured in Czechoslovakia; but the automatic and semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns they use come from a variety of sources: from Great Britain, the famous Sten gun, Mark V; from Belgium, the Vigneron M2 (9 mm); and from the United States, the favorite weapon of all insurgents, the Ingram submachine gun, called the "marietta."⁶ This latter weapon, manufactured by the Mili tary Armaments Corporation of Marietta, Georgia, weighs only

Armaments Corporation of Marietta, Georgia, weighs only seven pounds and is only about 11.5 inches long, yet it fires a standard .45 cal. or 9 mm bullet at the ratę of 900 rounds per minutę. Many of these weapons are bought freely in the clan-destine arms market in Western Europę and smuggled across the Pyrenees in sizable quantities.⁷ ETA has apparently never felt the need to assault Guardia Civil posts or barracks in order to obtain arms and ammunition, although there have been a few instances of thefts of weapons from the important armaments factories in Eibar, and officials usually blame ETA for these. Likewise, the acquisition of explosives has never been much of a problem for ETA. There are about 270 major deposits of explosives and blasting agents in Spain, and ETA has suc-cessfully assaulted several of these that are located in the Basque provinces.⁸ It is hard to conceive of ETA apart from the urban industrial setting within which it operates, and which continues to support it.
