Ikurriñas in Madrid?


Here you have Mariano Rajoy, the fella that lost the presidential race due to the lies him and his party (the PP) told the Spaniards and the world after the attacks in Madrid, waving and smiling to the camera.
He led the file and rank of the most backwards members of the Spanish society that today marched in Madrid to demonstrate against the efforts by Prime Minister José Luis Rodriguez Zapatero to achieve a peace treaty that would ensure a cease fire from ETA.
But wait, those are not Spanish flags right next to him!
Correct, those are Ikurriñas, Basque flags.
What was that all about?
One could think that the Falangists were displaying the emblems of those they conquered.
But no, what moved the to to such thing was their desire to legitimize their demonstration by showing a fake concern for the Basque society.
It is amazing the extremes they can go to in their efforts to appear as something they are not.
