Well said Spanish PM , Netanyahu is the Jewish Hitler and Himmler rolled into one supporting murderous land stealing settlers Yiddish bastards (that’s not aimed at all Israelis )
While Spain leads EU criticism of Israel, its biggest foreign investor is Qatar a regime that bankrolls Hamas, shelters its leaders, and pledged $5 billion to Spanish infrastructure and energy projects in 2022.
“The one who didn’t surrender started it” is immoral atrocity justification for an ethnosupremacist, genocidal, apartheid, oppressive, occupational state that's actively starving & slaughtering civilians, aid workers, journalists & levelling infrastructure perpetuating land theft.
Wtf is Israel supposed to do with a war upon them? Just let them? Hell no. Palestine needs to stop or be made to stop. It's a shame their ELECTED leadership is so willing to use their citizenry as fodder, but they are.
@sophietlk.bsky.social reports that Netanyahu has accused Macron of being favourable to Hamas! It may be the first time ever for the French President. No probably not, it’s an accusation liberally dispensed by those with limited ability to argue for Israel.
he's there as a representative of the Spanish state, not in personal capacity, talking about Spain's position. so what's relevant here is Spain's position, not his
"I think they are right. Because all these years, we’ve watched as Israel has systematically been occupying Palestinian territory in the West Bank. And now we are seeing what’s happening in Gaza,” said Sanchez.

I'm Brazilian and my president is calling this genocide by its name since over a year ago - and faced a ton of criticism since he was the *first* leader of any country to name things as they are.
Too late for the UK. We are forever tainted. After all that WW2 veterans did, we are now firmly on the wrong side. The likes of Starmer and his government have no right to soil their memory using poppies and 2-minute silences.
This will go down in history. And yes - people are tainted. Germany’s WW2 crimes are symbolic and no matter how much time passes, that will always be a reference pt should they do anything wrong. As will Britain.
Reality & history prove otherwise. Please do your own research. Importantly, it’s time the British are made accountable for ongoing colonialism which they’ve benefitted from. Otherwise they’ll keep saying “living people are not responsible”.
They assume that responsibility by not repudiating the crimes of the past. What’s going on now is worse, they are embracing war crimes and ignoring the evidence that they most certainly being shown in intel briefings even assuming they never read a paper.
There’s a very select group of politicians and business ppl very much encouraging this. If we make them ‘hollywood like’ pay for their crimes, I’ll call it a day.
so you think that people should be able to take other people's land and property, as long as they are the right ethnicity and believe in the right invented deity, based on a folk myth? There is no ‘original’ form of zionism that isn’t based on violence and theft.
But he does trade with Israel. The thing is, when he gets caught by the press, he backs off the specific deal that was revealed, but we don't know how many have been done without our knowing.
Even that is a severe undercount. The current estimates are exceeding 300,000 or 14% of the entire population of Gaza that have died due to Israeli military aggression and violations of humanitarian and international laws.
🚨URGENT!!! Israel is now targeting journalist Hind Khoudary spreading false information that she is not a journalist but a “Hamas collaborator”. This is the pattern Israel uses to justify their assassinations of journalists.
We've got to pray for her. Being a journalist in Gaza is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world because the fascists don't want them reporting on the genocide. It just creates more evidence that can be used against the fascists in court.
One of these days Vox and Partido Popular (just to be sure) are going to find a surprisingly large donation in cryptocurrency from an untraceable source.
Israel has forgotten how they were given the land which belonged to Palestine 🇵🇸… ungracious greedy Israeli’s have lost the world trust and cooperation…they are the aggressors
We hope so. Sanchez was early to the table & has consistently spoken out about what’s happening in Gaza. Although sadly with not much effect. This from a year ago
"Sieges may only be directed exclusively against an enemy's armed forces and it is absolutely prohibited to shoot or attack civilians fleeing a besieged area."
Israel was formed by refugees from the Holocaust, a true genocide; and refugees from Arabia, North Africa, Persia, and the USSR who were persecuted and systematically driven out of lands where they had lived for millennia.
Aunty semitism isn't working so well these days so they say you support Hamas the resistance fighters instead to silence any criticism of the genocide.
Forget the two-state solution. Kick them out of the UN. Dismantle the regime. Recognize a single Palestinian state with equal rights and self determination. That's the only reasonable resolution. No one should have to live in a world with a fascist, genocidal state. Never again, remember?
Agreed. I used to support a two-state solution, but I also think that’s unreasonable now. Israel has willfully committed far too much genocide. It needs to go. It’s been committing genocide in waves since it first stole land to establish. Fuck modern conquistadors. We don’t do that anymore. The end.
I seem to recall an anecdote where there were two different groups of conquistadors fighting each other because of that. One was Cortez's group and the others were the ones sent to arrest him.
Even the conquerors of old understood diplomacy mattered to some extent and genocide wasn’t always the best way to go. And then there’s modern day Israel.
Despite Sanchez speaking out, there have still been arms sales happening, even after they were supposed to have stopped. Spain could do a lot more than this. The fact that this looks so positive only highlights how little has been done by other world leaders. This really is bare minimum stuff
Comments
Ilan Pappé has written many acclaimed books on the history of Palestine & Israel. I find them accessible for a non-specialist.
Does that count?
Shall we look up Oct 5 next?
We need to establish who started it right?

So they’re probably safe as long as they don’t time travel.
sure are a fuck of a lot of bunchofnumbers accounts in the replies
It's not an excuse for netanyahu, just an indictment of zionism in general.

Se acaba de proponer una ley para que se prohíba el comercio se armas con Israel, ya veremos si se aprueba.

Not sure where mainstream media get these ideas
He isn't one of the complicit cowards.
Anything specific happening or is it just geological-genocidal inevitably that it was only a matter of time and pressure?
Still want to be sheep?
How about being a LEADER??
Say after me, ‘Israel is committing GENOCIDE’
Come on, be brave, say it

Call a genocide a genocide.
I do think this is why they got that blackout
It’s not over until the fat lady sings
Systematically destroying civilizations, corrupting cultures, imposing Catholicism, and murdering millions.
Israel’s self defense against terror is no comparison to what Spain did.
We're in 2025.
Collateral damage occurs in war; it’s why it is so terrible. It’s still not genocide.
Too bad that Hamas doesn’t care enough about Gazans to surrender to the IDF. Hamas only cares about power and their death cult.
https://www.icrc.org/en/document/ihl-rules-of-war-FAQ-Geneva-Conventions
All civilian deaths are literally the responsibility of Hamas.
All civilian deaths are literally the responsibility of Netanyahu.
Israel has been grabbing Palestinian land for decades. The real victims of this decades-long story are the Palestinians.
Farewell.
Don’t posture about genocide you hypocrite.
Israel needs to eliminate Hamas; Gazans should surrender without conditions.
They bombard you with endless misinformation like India.
That really says a lot, doesn't it?
