Wolf, I hardly thing that the Basque question is an appropriate comparison. That is another issue entirely, spaniards wanting to debilitate their region and seperate themselves (and as always, its that noisy minority!-only under threat do they overwhelmingly vote for it!)

On the other hand, the Ceuta and Melilla... well, they are holdings spain has in another country. A WHOLE different ball game, but yes, more directly correlated with Gibraltar!

But are we really going to rehash the whole basque region issue!?
