Spain: Blogger Summoned to Court for Supporting Israel
Via LGF comes this stunning news: Galician blogger charged for supporting Israel
Galician blogger Alejandro de Llano has told in his blog that he has been charged with the great crime of supporting Israel and being against the Palestinian people.Two years ago, the Galician nationalist Major of Oleiros (in the photo) began a campaign whose slogan was "Stop the beast. Sharon murderer" and "Stop to new Nazis". The Major is known for his love for Castro (was watched over by CIA because of his friendship with Castro) and Palestinians. The campaign also included T-shirts with Anti0US and anti-Sharon for 6 (euros-RD) and it also pictured US flag in a higyenic paper with the legend "USAme", which in Spanish is "USE me". Very respectable.[...]
The blogger's orginal post (in Spanish) can be found here. My translation follows:
"Two years ago the Major of the Corunian municipality of Oleiros, who is also a friend of Fidel Castro, organized a campaign using public money against the democratic State of Israel. In response to those actions, I sent an email expressing my opinion on the matter. Today I've received a summons from the penal court where I'm summoned to depose as the accused for the crime of "being in favor of Israel and against the Palestinian People". What do you think?"
To repeat; this is stunning news. In Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero's Spain, it may now be a crime to support the State of Israel.
