How the PP Uses the Victims

I found an excellent post about how the PP sees uses and abuses the so called victims of terrorism.

I found it at a blog called Thebadrash.Com, here it is:

The PP loves victims of terrorism

During their time in power as well as during their disgraceful period in opposition, the PP have put nearly all of their energy into dividing Spain. Their constant jibes and threats - targeted against not only the left-wing but against distinct national groups within Spain - have changed this country and have increased tensions between Catalans, Basques, Spaniards, immigrants, conservatives, liberals and socialists.

This is a typical modus operandi for a one-policy party. Political entities of this type have no real philosophy or plan behind them other than the manufacture of fear among the populus. And they’re very successful at it. Intelligent, reserved Spaniards and Catalans whom I know are hesitant to pursue their own political goals because of a perceived threat that if modernisation of this country ‘goes too far’, the right wing will ruin things again.

The PP use this fear to divide the people of Spain. They use it to radicalise Spanish politics. These methods only ever benefit the PP and are all the more disgraceful because they are merely a means to attempt to regain power: as we have made very clear before, the PP does not believe in anything except its own right to control Spain.

To try and derail peace talks between the government and ETA, peace talks which the PP have already agreed to, purely in order to win political points, is the most abhorrent and repulsive act so far committed by this party. Their aim is clearly to gain power at all costs: even if it means that the streets of Spain run with the blood of more victims of terrorism. To call the PP simply power-hungry and divisive is to miss the point. The PP care so little for the people of Spain that they would rather see them dead than alive; if it meant that they controlled la Moncloa. So the question now is whether you’d like to see more victims of terrorism or fewer. The PP know which they’d prefer, and that’s why they’re trying to provoke more violence.


And just to show you how accurate he was with this lines, check this reaction by a Españolista Spaniard:

Fantastic! What a steaming load of biased, overstated, unsubstantiated bollocks!

Any chance of some evidence for your assertions here, Tom? How about quoting official policy on each side and using detailed argument? What about looking at some actual facts, dates, figures, laws?

Do you know anything at all about the subject?

Yes indeed, the post went straight to the rotten heart of the right wingers in Spain.
