Although Spain has a
“Ministry of Defense”, in Spainistan we rightly call it the “Minister of War”,
which is exactly his final aim and raison
d’etre. Five months ago, the Partido Popular took government in Spain; the
Government Cabinet was nominated soon and with no few surprises, that we will
also elaborate in future posts.
Probably
one of the most stricking surprises was the nomination of the Spainistani
Minister of War. His name is Pedro Morenés (see picture) and, what was our
surprise when we discovered that this
guy has been regularly linked to the production and selling of some of the most
socially controversial and rejected weapons existing!!!. We are talking
here serious business: nuclear weapons
and cluster bombs.
Mr. (Mr.?)
Morenés was the President of MBDA Spain. MBDA is a multinational enterprise
that builds ASMP-A missiles, nuclear-type missiles. Actually, MBDA is owned by
three of the enterprises that de facto
produce nuclear weapons: EADS, BAE
Systems and Finmeccanica. The last one is participated in a 2.01% by the Lybian Investment Authority (LIA) under
the former Gadafi Govnerment which, by the way, did very lucrative busniness
with this dictator.
In fact,
this is not the last link between the Minister of War Mr. Morenés and Gadafi:
to our surprise, Morenés was advisor to
Instalaza, a Spainistan company producing and selling cluster bombs just before it was forbidden by law. This company
sold bombs to Gadafi, and they were used against the civil population in Libia,
as shown by Human Rights Watch.
The
conclusion is straightforward: Spainistan has a Minister of War that directly
contributed to the production and selling of nuclear weapons and cluster bombs,
and that indirectly, yet with a strong cause-effect relationship, contributed
to the killing of civilians in Libya
via his friend Gadafi. Finally,
difficult to see how this monster will keep his impartiality and neutrality versus the Spainistani
Military-Industrial conglomerate...
Shame on
Spainistan,
A hurt
