Yesterday, the scandal grew when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2023\/10\/15\/several-ministers-of-pedro-sanchez-support-a-demonstration-of-an-antisemitic-group-that-celebrated-the-hamas-terrorist-attack\/\">several ministers supported a march called by an antisemitic group that celebrated the Hamas terrorist attack<\/a>, a march spread with posters that erased from map to Israel and in which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2023\/10\/16\/the-antisemitic-march-supported-by-sanchezs-ministers-it-is-resistance-it-is-not-terrorism\/\">slogans were chanted justifying the terrorists<\/a>. Something typical of a regime like that of Nicol\u00e1s Maduro.<\/p>\n<p>After more than a week of silently enduring these provocations, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IsraelinSpain\/status\/1713957414213452122\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">today finally the Israeli Embassy in Spain has reacted with a statement<\/a> which, for your interest, I reproduce in full below, translated into English:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Israeli Embassy<br \/>\nPress release<\/p>\n<p><big>Israel strongly condemns recent statements by some members of the Spanish government<\/big><\/p>\n<p><strong>Israel strongly condemns the recent statements by some members of the Spanish government.<\/strong> It is deeply worrying that, at a time when Israel is mourning the loss of innocent lives in the barbaric Hamas attack on 7 October, in which <strong>more than 1,300 men, women and children were barbarously murdered<\/strong>, and when more than 150 civilians, including children, women and the elderly remain captives of Hamas terrorists in Gaza, <strong> certain elements within the Spanish government have chosen to align themselves with this ISIS-type terrorism.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>These statements are not only absolutely immoral, but they also endanger the security of the Jewish communities in Spain<\/strong>, exposing them to the risk of a greater number of antisemitic incidents and attacks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We call on the President of the Government, Pedro S\u00e1nchez<\/strong>, to unequivocally denounce and condemn these shameful statements.<\/p>\n<p>Madrid, October 16, 2023<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yesterday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2023\/10\/15\/several-ministers-of-pedro-sanchez-support-a-demonstration-of-an-antisemitic-group-that-celebrated-the-hamas-terrorist-attack\/\">I already warned here<\/a> that the support of several ministers of S\u00e1nchez's government for that antisemitic march could cause an international incident. <strong>In the end this international incident has occurred, and leaves Spain as a country whose government sides with the terrorists<\/strong>, which is what Pedro S\u00e1nchez's far-left ministers have done with their declarations of the last days.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, <strong>as a Spanish citizen I fully subscribe to the statement from the Israeli Embassy<\/strong>, and I cannot help but feel tremendous shame at seeing half of my country's government supporting a gang of murderers and the other half consenting. <strong>The ministers who have aligned themselves with the terrorists should not continue another day in their positions.<\/strong> And if S\u00e1nchez does not want to dismiss them, then the Spanish presidency of the European Union should come to an end immediately. <strong>Europe does not deserve to be led by a government that aligns itself with terrorism and promotes antisemitism.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>---<\/p>\n<p><small>Photo: Europa Press.
