One of the basic rules of good camouflage is that if you want to go unnoticed, you must find a way to blend in with your surroundings.<\/p>\n
If you need to blend into a forest, arid camouflage is a bad idea. The same goes for a dark pattern in the snow. Poor camouflage can give you away instead of making you less visible.<\/strong> In some environments, that can be the difference between life and death, because your survival often depends on being well camouflaged.<\/strong><\/p>\n I know some readers may be wondering if I've posted this in the wrong article. Well, no. I'm writing this because the Prime Minister of Spain, Pedro S\u00e1nchez, has long been trying to distract Spaniards from the corruption scandals<\/strong> affecting his personal circle (specifically his wife and brother), his government, and his party. The visit of Pope Leo XIV must have seemed like a golden opportunity to create a smokescreen. That explains, for example, why yesterday we saw S\u00e1nchez and his wife at the Basilica of the Sagrada Familia<\/a>, something unusual after not attending the funerals for the victims of the Adamuz train accident<\/strong>, nor for the victims of the Valencia floods, nor for the dead of the pandemic, nor any event that took place in a church during his eight years in office.<\/p>\n The same can be said about the government's audacity in trying to use the Pope as a weapon against the opposition<\/a>, completely ignoring Leo XIV's resounding criticism of abortion and euthanasia<\/a> (two atrocities actively promoted by S\u00e1nchez and his cabinet) in his speech before Congress this Monday. That the Spanish left, which has long defended radically anti-Christian positions, should try to appropriate the Pope is the height of cynicism<\/strong>, and only serves to make even more evident to the Spanish people the moral filth that has led the PSOE to be mired up to its neck in the swamp of political corruption.<\/strong><\/p>\n But as if all that weren't enough, the warm welcomes given to Leo XIV in Madrid and Barcelona create a bright environment in which a shadowy figure like S\u00e1nchez finds it impossible to blend in<\/strong>. One only needs to look at the crowds that filled stadiums and thronged the streets to welcome Robert Prevost to observe two very different situations: on the one hand, a Pope basking in the adulation of the masses, and on the other, a politician who is increasingly unpopular and hardly dares to go out in public anymore<\/strong>, unless he's accompanied by an army of bodyguards and mobilizes a few PSOE members as mere props. We have a Pope who speaks freely with journalists and a president who flees from them as if they were lepers<\/strong>, for fear of being asked uncomfortable questions.<\/p>\n How is this possible? The answer is obvious. Leo XIV is a man who has dedicated his life to doing good<\/strong>, spending years on missions among the poor (one of the reasons he is so beloved in Peru). He is a person who speaks with respect, reason, consistency, and love for others<\/strong>, never shying away from shaking anyone's hand, but at the same time reminding them, if necessary, of those Christian values \u200b\u200bthat some regard with disdain because they reveal the kind of atrocities they have supported with their votes (I have already mentioned two). The Pope is a man who has a moral authority far greater than his actual power in the world<\/strong>, for he governs the smallest country of all, yet he is listened to attentively by a community of more than 1.4 billion Catholics.<\/p>\n On the contrary, S\u00e1nchez is an unscrupulous, lying, and deceitful man<\/strong> who has shown that he believes his personal desires and interests are above any other consideration, and that to stay in power he has committed all kinds of infamies<\/strong>, seriously eroding democratic institutions and the rule of law, allying himself with the worst extremists (including those who do not condemn ETA terrorism)<\/strong> and seeking the support of regimes as perverse as the Chinese communist dictatorship.<\/p>\n Cuanto m\u00e1s se acerca S\u00e1nchez a una buena persona como el Papa, m\u00e1s en evidencia queda la vileza del dirigene socialista<\/strong>. Es imposible que un tipo como \u00e9l pase desapercibido al lado de un Papa como Robert Prevost. Lo \u00fanico que S\u00e1nchez consigue es quedar a\u00fan peor.<\/strong> El dirigente socialista ya debe estar d\u00e1ndose cuenta, demasiado tarde, de su error. \u00bfEn qu\u00e9 mal momento, Pedro, se te ocurri\u00f3 esconderte detr\u00e1s de un hombre como \u00e9ste?<\/p>\n The closer S\u00e1nchez gets to a good person like the Pope, the more the vileness of the socialist leader is exposed.<\/strong> It's impossible for a man like him to go unnoticed next to a Pope like Robert Prevost. All S\u00e1nchez manages to do is make himself look even worse.<\/strong> The Socialist leader must already be realizing his mistake, too late. What a terrible idea, Pedro, made you decide to hide behind a man like this?<\/p>\n ---<\/p>\n
