Blame Pedro Sanchez for Ceuta. Not Spain
The invasion of the Spanish city of Ceuta by tens of thousands of young, marauding Moroccans is, like Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, a tale of how the future could look unless one takes action in the present.
TL;DR
- Tens of thousands of Moroccans invaded the Spanish city of Ceuta.
- Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's policies, including an amnesty for illegal immigrants and statements from his minister of equality, are cited as contributing factors.
- A recent Spanish Supreme Court ruling that migrants arriving by sea cannot be deported without due process is also mentioned as a potential catalyst.
- The article criticizes Sanchez's leftist political stances, including his past criticisms of the Trump administration and Israel.
- It distinguishes between Sanchez's government and the Spanish people, arguing that the former does not represent the latter.
- The potential for a future Spanish government to be more pro-American is noted, based on polling data.
- The author advises against vilifying Spain and suggests learning from the Ceuta incident rather than attacking a NATO ally.
