Iparretarrak“s anagram. It consists of a monogram of the letters IK and the motto Herriak bizi behar du, "The people must live".

Iparretarrak ("the Northerners" in Basque) is an armed Basque nationalist organization operating in the French Basque Country. It was founded in 1973 by Philippe Bidart, to date, 1982 remains as their most active year, with 32 attacks; despite having mostly targeted touristic developments, it has also assassinated a number of French police personnel.

Despite basically sharing the same goals and methods, it has an uneasy relation with ETA, a more powerful organization based in the Spanish Basque Country, mostly due to the fact that ETA uses the French Basque Country as a sanctuary and does not want to provoke the French Government in this regard.

In 1998 it declared a truce and, to date, it has not resumed activity nor it has officially disbanded.
