A detailed analysis of the deaths in Gaza that refutes accusations of 'genocide'<\/a><\/rel>
\nThe far-left spread the 'genocide' hoax when there were more deaths in Israel than in Gaza<\/a><\/rel><\/p>\n

Yesterday, through its official Facebook page, the University of La Coru\u00f1a (UDC) announced the raising of the Palestinian flag on two public buildings<\/a>: the rectorate, located in a former artillery barracks on the Elvi\u00f1a campus in the city of A Coru\u00f1a, and the vice-rectorate, located next to the former Marine Hospital in Ferrol. The images show that the current rector of the UDC, Ricardo Cao Abad, participated in this raising of the flag on the Elvi\u00f1a campus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The public university has justified this measure by appealing to the hoax of the \"genocide\" in Gaza<\/a>: \"This morning the Rector's Office and the Vice-Rector's Office buildings on the Ferrol Campus hosted the raising of the Palestinian flag as a sign of condemnation of the genocide perpetrated in Gaza<\/strong>. The flag will remain raised until the end of the Israeli government's aggression against the Gazan people.\"<\/em> The paradox is that this raising takes place when the war started by Hamas has already ended<\/strong> and, furthermore, it makes no mention of the atrocities that this terrorist group is committing against the population of Gaza<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to using public buildings to promote a hoax, the photos released by the UDC show that three flags are now flying on those public buildings: the Palestinian flag, the university flag, and the flag of Galicia. The Spanish flag is not there.<\/strong> It should be noted that, as reflected on the institution's own website, it was customary at that public university to display the flags of Spain, Galicia, and the UDC<\/a>, placing the national flag in the center. In other words, the UDC's governing team has decided to replace the Spanish flag with the Palestinian flag<\/strong>, clearly violating the law.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Article 3.1 of the Flag Law of 1981<\/a> is very clear: \"The flag of Spain must fly outside<\/strong> and occupy a prominent place inside all buildings and establishments of the central, institutional, autonomous<\/strong>, provincial or insular and municipal Administration of the State.\"<\/em> In case there is any doubt about which buildings it refers to, Article 4 of the aforementioned law clarifies it even further: \"In the Autonomous Communities, whose Statutes recognize their own flag, this will be used together with the flag of Spain in all civil public buildings<\/strong> within the territorial scope of the former, in accordance with the terms of the provisions of article six of this law.\"<\/em><\/p>\n

It should be remembered that Galician public universities depend on the Galician government, which is controlled by the Popular Party,<\/strong> specifically the Ministry of Education, Science, Universities, and Vocational Training. Therefore, it is up to the Galician government to demand that the UDC respect the law and restore the Spanish flag<\/strong>. If they fail to do so, I hope that some citizen or organization in those two Galician cities will be encouraged to file a complaint with the courts to force the UDC to comply with the Flag Law<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
