Did all members of the Basque separatist group ETA agree with the group's ceasefire declaration?

Highly Recommended on Smithsonian Journeys Reading List for France and Spain's Basque Region.

For fans of The Basque History of the World and the Baztan Trilogy.

Europe’s longest war came to an end on October 21, 2011. On this date, the Basque separatist group Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA) declared a ceasefire, ending a five-decade long campaign for an independent Basque Country in northwest Spain and southwest France. But is ETA really gone? Various factions refused to surrender their arms and openly disagreed with ETA leadership. What if some individuals decide not enough progress has occurred for the Basque people since the ceasefire? The Basque Dilemma considers this explosive possibility in a present-day investigation throughout Europe. The story has historical ties to the 1980s when the traditional ETA refuge in the northern Basque Country was infused with the activities of the French Basque separatist group, Iparretarrak (IK), and the paramilitary group, Los Grupos Antiterroristas de Liberación (GAL), including the group’s infamous assassin, the Lady in Black.
