...years, 45 Mt. Auburn was home to the now-defunct Pi Eta Speakers club, whose demise came in 1991 after a string of incidents that damaged the club’s reputation.

Last week Spanish forces arrested five ETA members after Oct. 3 sweeps netted 18 Basque militants, and found enormous caches of arms, munitions and nearly...
...both 43, have eluded police for more than 12 years. Raids of six other French houses on Oct. 3 turned up firearms, ammunition, 700 kg of dynamite, hundreds of detonators, two portable ground-to-air rockets, an underground firing range and stores of cash. One French investigator with long ETA experience says the group "will find it harder than ever to strike now that its leaders and arms have been hit again." But he also notes ETA has continually bounced back from previous blows - and says discovery of such a mighty arsenal suggests it had been preparing for more terror...
