”How dare those uppity Jews actually defend themselves when the romantic freedom fighters we’re protecting try to kill them in wholesale lots!” [IsraelTimes] Pedro Sanchez also calls on international community to stop selling arms to Israel after UNIFIL soldiers were hurt in ground offensive in Lebanon
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez on Monday urged other members of the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
to respond to his country’s and Ireland’s request to suspend the bloc’s free trade agreement with Israel over its actions in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
and Leb
...an Iranian satrapy until recently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
For months, Spain and Ireland have been in talks with other EU countries that want a review of the EU-Israel Association Agreement on the basis that Israel may be breaching the agreement’s human rights
...which are usually entirely different from personal liberty ...
clause.
The agreement stipulates that free trade between the EU and Israel will be "based on respect for human rights and democratic principles" but does not detail what actions would be considered violations of the agreement.
Sanchez’s comments come days after he urged the international community to stop selling weapons to Israel, citing injuries to members of the United Nations
...boodling on the grand scale...
Interim Force in Lebanon.
Four UNIFIL soldiers were maimed on Thursday and Friday by IDF fire as the army was targeting Hezbollah. The IDF said that the two injured on Friday had been warned to take shelter.
A fifth peacekeeper was injured on Friday but the source of the fire is unknown.
After the peacemakers were maimed, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged UNIFIL to withdraw its forces from the combat zone to prevent Hezbollah from using them as human shields.
Sanchez condemned the comments, saying that UNIFIL would not withdraw its forces.
Spain has deployed 650 peacekeepers in Lebanon and a Spanish general leads the UN mission.
"Let me at this point criticize and condemn the attacks that the Israeli armed forces are carrying out on the United Nations mission in Lebanon," Sanchez said on Friday when he called for other countries to stop selling arms to Israel.
Sanchez, who has been critical of Israel throughout its war with Hamas
 ..one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...
in Gaza, said Spain stopped selling weapons to Israel in October 2023 and urged the rest of the world to do the same, claiming it would prevent further escalation in the region.
"I think it is urgent given what is happening in the Middle East that the international community stops exporting weapons to the Israeli government," he said.
Earlier this year, Spain and Ireland formally recognized a Paleostinian state along with Norway in what Sanchez called a decision "for peace, for justice and for coherence."
Much of the international community has been critical of Israel to varying degrees since its war with Hamas broke out on October 7 last year with the terrorist organization’s surprise attack, in which some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, were killed and 251 were taken hostage.
In response to the massacre, Israel launched a ground offensive in Gaza with the proclaimed objectives of dismantling Hamas and getting the hostages back. The Paleostinian enclave has seen much destruction in the year since due to the ongoing warfare.
