I found a comment under this article (http://news.yahoo.com/spain-hails-eta-end-basque-separatist-violence-054609009.html) to be spot on:

"So let me understand this. The Irish and Brits signed a peace accord over Northern Ireland. The Basques have agreed to a permanent cease fire with the Spanish .The former Salvadorean rebels formed a coalition government in El Salvador. The Contras and Sandanistas share power in Nicaragua. The Talipigs,Afghans and The USA are engaged in peace/ceasefire talks. The USA will completely re-deploy from Iraq in January 2012.The ROK's send food aid and does billions in trade with The DPRK. Egypt are Libya are now friends.The ROC and PRC have direct flights and billions in direct trade.The Venezuelans give discounted heating oil to (North) American New Englanders.The Algerians formed a coalition government with their former murderous Islamic fundamentalist rebels.Our peace challenged Mid-East ally assists the Syrian protesters/rebels .The Brits and the Argentines have agreed to peacebly settle their differences over The Falklands(Malvinas) Islands. The US elects a Black president, Brazil elects an Indian women president , the French elect a half Hungarian as president and the all Black congressional district in N'Orleans elects an Asian-American. . The PRC peacefully re-incorporates Hong Kong from the Brits and let's it maintain the status quo economic sysytem. The Indonesians allow East Timor to vote for independence. Bhuddist Nepal has a Maoist-Marxist government.The Argentines continue to try war criminals from their former dictatorship. And yet, The Israelis refuse to sign a final cease fire/peace deal with Palestinians in order to prevent a Palestinian State . Go figure."
