Serenity with that thing about Waiter

Love or not love, everything what it is spending about the judge Baltasar Garzón, he needs urgently a certain serenity in the analysis and in the opinions. I do not begin to think why this happens, I want only to attend on two matters that today they tear to opinadores and to magistrates: the accusation of Franco's diet and the use of listening in the communications of a few lawyers. It is thought in favor and against that the judge Waiter should have acted correctly in two matters. And, also, it is thought purely and simply on Waiter.

The judge Waiter thinks that the crimes committed by Franco's diet, finished the civil war, they can and they must be judged. Others think that the amnesty law (approved by the Spanish democrats) this performance prevents. One defends that there is a top law that proteje to the human rights and condemnation the crimes against the Humanity. And that both are of full application in this case.

It is a juridical openwork debate. It is a political debate of international transcendency.

Uncomfortable? The most uncomfortable. Because if it is already difficult to re-open pits of shot by the Franco supporters, to raise a universal judgment to those who arranged these executions it is today in almost impossible Spain.

But I speak about legality of the attempt. Is it possible to achieve that the amnesty law is void? Since that the lawyers speak. And that the citizens think. Two lines me temos that are not going to be coincidental.

Yesterday a person with big historical sensibility was saying to me: "the origin of the Mafia is precisely the moment with which the Justice and the Right do not coincide”. I hope that we all should give a return to this idea.

But the judge Waiter has another open front. This matter goes of lawyers. Can be recorded the conversations of a few supposed delinquents with his defense lawyers? Even more: accomplices of his clients can they record defense lawyers conversations possibly?

This matter exceeds me. The first answer would be that the conversations can never be recorded in the jail of a lawyer and his defended one. The second answer would be that the district attorneys have considered important that what there one was speaking important age to specify a crime.

Already that we are before the most important case of corruption of the PP. But I demand that no progressive accent of thinking that to condemn an adversary it is necessary to do it in accordance with the Law.

I do not have the minor doubt that in the PP there are a few scoundrels who have made a profit with the case “Gürtel“. Less doubts I have of that Franco's diet committed atrocious crimes finished the civil war (please, the happened during the war make it separate), but I ask nobody to approach these crimes without a law in the hand.

In a democracy one fights against the Law. There is times that at least not even having the reason are gained. And let's not forget that the mafias originate when the Justice and the Right stop coinciding. Do not be going to be that we are incubating the egg of a terrible snake: a mafia in the world of the Justice. Waiter is an anecdote: all the politicians and the lawyers should think about the transcendency of what we have between hands.

It has to break a Savings bank

I make sure you that I do not understand why the Spanish Bank already does not give a punch in the table of the Spanish finance. It turns out that there are Savings banks that it is impossible that they support the loss of value of his real estate loans, but they announce that they are going to publish benefits. There are Savings banks that it know that can only superlive if they fuse and reduce costs; but managing demagogues, along with politicians who about finance do not know anything (but of despotic power, yes) are opposed to mergers inside or out of his Autonomous region. It has to break a Box.

The businessmen walk asking from knees to them to give them money for his normal activity. I do not speak about the real estate ones. And they obtain not even an euro. Why? Is it that the Boxes (and the banking) does not want to be big enough? Error: the banking and the Boxes gain money being big enough. Then: why are not they big enough? Since why do not they have money to be given.

The whole Spanish financial system is damaged through the fault of the real estate crisis, but the Savings banks (be saved the one who explains it) more.

The Spanish Bank can decide that the property assets of Boxes and banks it is necessary to devaluate 30 %. That to a bank leads him to increasing his own resources or to his loans diversifying. But the Boxes (be saved the one who explains it) are victims of his credit monoculture: the houses. And they do not move.

Now, when the fall of value of his assets presses the balance, they refuse to reduce costs and improve the management by means of mergers.

It cannot be. It cannot be that either the Department of Economy or the Spanish Bank manage to discipline to such an important piece of the Spanish financial system as there are the Boxes.

The citizens have to do in living and live what raisin when his Savings bank with problems has refused to a merger. His savings happen to be protected by a Fund with limits. His personnel goes away to the unemployment. His assets are auctioned judicially. Since that has to happen, in view of the senselessness of certain agents.

As the things are, the only solution is that a Savings bank that refuses to fuse rupture.

Venezuela, Israel and Iran

It is normal that the international politics topics talk each other with a lot of prudence, with a lot of care. Even with a lot of cynicism. But this way the world works and this way impossible tensions are avoided. We walk these days with a People's Party that wants that the government of Spain is very hard with the government of Venezuela. It is curious that the PP always has ahead the “model Perejil” to be related to a country that has differences with Spain. We already live through similar patriotic tensions when we fight against the rifeños in Morocco years before the Civil war. The PP seems that only he reads the History to repeat it. And that is impossible.

Venezuela is a country that can slide towards the dictatorship, but the mayor of Caracas is still opposing to the government of Hugo Chavez. Spain is right in supporting all the channels opened with that country and much more when there can be touches of presence of ancient or recent members of ETA in this territory. I believe that the things are done well and with prudence. And that the PP goes of radical without the felt minor of the State. To worry only the just thing: when Gustavo de Arístegui is the Secretary of State it will act just as the minister Moratinos. The sorrow is that it is going to be very difficult that the minister of the branch names nobody to Arístegui.

But there is a problem that does not draw into the Spanish public opinion: the possible nuclear rearming of Iran. Worse still, this international risk (and national) considers that it is a problem of Israel. And as it is said that Israel is an enemy of the Palestinians since that thing about Iran enters directly the confusion.

Has anybody in the PP said anything on the problem that represents Iran for the world peace and for the interests of Spain? Nobody. The important thing is Venezuela.

I have said that in international politics there can be certain cynicism doses, but in case of Iran and Spain the doses are “of horse”.

Everybody knows that Iran is a danger for the most dangerous area of the world. But everybody entrusts that - come an extreme situation - the problem will solve his Israel.

There is no strategy decided about blockade to the Iranian nuclear programs. There is always a country slightly more ready than others that sells what is to Iran to gain a few dineros. That one ready is putting us in danger to all. Included to Spain.

It is convenient that it is known that we have soldiers in the area, businessmen in the area and certain ethics for the area. It cannot be that we are spectators of a possible nuclear power in Iran without the voice of Spain being heard round and awkward. It cannot be that a few threats of the president of Venezuela open a showy debate between the Spanish socialist party and the PP and that Iran could enrich uranium turn out to be a news about the page of international events.

Spain should be very round condemning Iran. Just as it should be (as it is doing it) very diplomatically with the infantile points of Chavez and his government.

With Venezuela we stake that the right suffers already dry colonial perspirations. With Iran we stake that half a world (ours) turns to find of face with the terror.

It cannot be. And the most cynical of the question is how we judge Israel. Israel cannot be applauded by his politics with the Palestinians. And I make sure you that I am also ready to discuss the topic somewhere here. But what is not of receipt is that it turns out that we all are scared by the danger that represents the Iranian nuclear power and that we all sleep calm because there Israel is to solve the problem.

In equal Spain some of them have Venezuela badly fitted, others to Israel, but almost they all support silence on Iran. It will be necessary to give him the thought-out one.

A registrar of the anarchistic property!

I am ready to analyze the debate on economy in the Congress of the Deputies. I even am going to punctuate the different interventions. But I cannot for less that to think that the news about the day is the discovery of a new facet of Mariano Rajoy: Mariano Rajoy likes the anarchistic movements. Really that when I listened to it was not giving credit to what it heard. The registrar of the property and leader of the PP, Mariano Rajoy, asked the Socialists that be infuriated and throw Shoemaker.

Rajoy neither raised censoring motion, nor requested early elections, anything of that: he asked the socialistic deputies to remove Rodriguez Zapatero of his responsibility of prime minister. That is to say: I cannot win after two general elections; I cannot win in this Parliament; but I will be able to win (perhaps) if the Spanish socialist party replaces his leader.

The fact is that if it is not listened he does not believe.

In the end, it is this temptation of certain right that there believes proprietress of Spain and of his democratic organization (or of other one). And if it does not happen this way, he asks his adversaries (to the left) that is infuriated against his leaders. It is old, it is known and in these times a useless strategy.

That it is known that the debate has not been useless. I am sure that big agreements are not going to subscribe. But some punctual agreements yes will be signed. I refer, skylight is, to the PP and to the Spanish socialist party.

Who has gained this debate? Since there is no clear winner because there have been two debates. One was on information and measurements, that Shoemaker has won. Other was on sensations and frames of mind and this debate has gained his Rajoy.

What is sure is that Shoemaker knows that his future is much tied to the economic situation and that Rajoy will not dare to say anything that could allow to Financial Times a leading article against Spain.

So, I repeat, it has not been a useless debate: we have amused ourselves and thrilled with Rajoy and have learned with Shoemaker.

The new military men

I believe that the citizens we should pay attention to who our new military men are; the Spanish military men. Because it even does very little, a military man was equal to someone of an extreme right. Because it even does a little more, a military man was a rebellious colonial warrior. And it turns out that today a Spanish military man defends his Constitution and fights in united international conflicts. And even the life can be left in the determination. If the History is not known, equal one does not give him the thought-out one these nor are valued sew.

I understand that all the honest citizens we are turning to how we extract to our economy of a serious crisis. But some of us do not forget that – simultaneously - there are Spanish who are staking the life in many places because this way the Parliament has decided it.

Have you heard some official destined in the Balkans or in Lebanon or in Afghanistan claiming the political power? They are not even heard, it nor happens to the citizens to think that that would be possible.

You complain of subofficials or of officials or of soldiers on his conditions of life or of career, they are; but you complain on why they send them and why, not a word.

To applaud a little more these military men I have to remember that, a very few years ago, other military men in warlike missions in Morocco, considered to destroy what they were considering to be a disorder. And it was simply the most difficult debate of the freedom. And you already know what it spent.

They were they (were) a few traitors and they dishonored his uniforms.

I believe that it is important that the citizens know that today there is practically no military man who has not lived through two experiences: 1st that his life has been close to the death, 2nd that his work has always been inside a few laws.

I understand that for those whom the Armies do not follow closely that thing about, comments as this one can look like strangers. But it should not be like that. Spain has had many dramas of coexistence in which the solution has been military and violent.

That the today military men are not opposite to the democratic system, it is not a news, but it is news. And raisin that there are military men who die in missions that the Parliament entrusts them and of uniform it happens to nobody to doubt our coexistence norm. We cry together.

Read our History and then give a hug to the new military men for his sincere incorporation to the democracy. That already that is the logical thing, but do not believe that the things of the freedom have been easy.

Today we are like all the democratic countries. In Holland a government falls down for the differences on Afghanistan. In the USA it is debated on the war times. In the United Kingdom they walk discussing the Defense expenses. In Spain there is still doubted if we walk in war or in armed humanitarian aid. Since today we are like they: we debate what is, but we do not put in question our democracy.

Spanish citizens, for already a happy time, the military men belong to ours. And texts like this one have not any sense.

Transparence in the House of the King

It seems that the arrival to the Palace of the Operetta of Ramón Iribarren like person in charge of the department of communication, it has produced changes in the way of the Royal house being related to the means and to the citizens. Now we can know the part that should be of the real agenda and can visit in the social networks what from the House is published. It is very well and is opportune, but the bad thing is that the transparence has no tones: the things are transparent or they it are not and the way by half that it has opened mister Iribarren of course is an error.

If he competes for the transparence it has to be with all the consequences. If opaque areas are going to be supported, better not to open the process, not the debate.

Since I am sure that in Spain to open today the debate monarchy, republic is a time of political time, it is therefore I am allowed to think to myself that Ramón Iribarren is going to have problems. And it is going to create problems. Therefore he has advised? No, for remaining by half.

It is not possible to be blind and dull before those who ask which the accounts of the Royal house are and, at the same time, to make the agenda of the Head of the state transparent.

I repeat my idea of that this communication step has been an error: 1st for inopportune, when all those who order something walk of crossed interviews 2nd on instigator, when there are politicians who ask to know the expenses of the first magistracy.

It was sure that someone sold to someone this idea as a progressive idea. And it it is. The bad thing is that everything is a partial idea of that a progressive cannot divide.

Or the House of the King is transparent or it it is not. I can to ceptar that it is not to support a certain mystery dose with this special figure that is the monarchy, but if anybody agrees that it is necessary to be transparent, since it is necessary to be transparent.

The politicians of IU or of ERC now have been loaded with reason when they demand to know the budget accounts of the Royal house. There is no way of which the Government denies them.

Can we meet whom the King receives in Operetta but cannot we know how much costs Operetta? It does not go if possible.

Already that the crisis, the agreements, the intensive life that occupies us do that this matter is much minor. It can be. But that I know the whole world that (and other Socialists as I) we do not open the debate on the transparence in the Royal house, but if this transparence is opened by half, a Socialist who creates in the monarchy thinks that that cannot be.

Or agreed mystery or entire transparence. Stained averages, no. And, all this, in defense of the Monarchy.

Tasks for the Minister of Defense

With very little noise, the minister Carme Chacón is finished legislative works that come unfinished from much behind. Of course, the day that the BOE publishes in a law of rights and duties of the military men, there will have ended a cycle that started after the first democratic elections. Not to be surprised (or yes): the topics that have to do with the military men have been late very much in normalizing in Spain. But there we are civil and military doing that soon we all are like the most democratic countries of the world.

A few days ago there were decorated a few military men who staked the career for fighting for the democracy: those of the UMD. Thirty five years later.

They tell me that there have been meetings between organized subofficials and persons in charge of the Department. Thirty five years later.

Nobody discusses that Spain has to send soldiers to the operation ISAF in Afghanistan to an operation ”in a highly risked stage of conflict and war” (Chacón in the Congress, thirty five years later).

It has cost us thirty five years, but we are already to two fingers of being a country like the others.

Let's suppose that in these months the minister achieves that the laws that modernize our Armed forces end up being approved. Let's give for fact that the Decrees and the Orders will go in the same line. What will the minister Chacón have left for what it remains of the term?

The Defense Department has a characteristic that him differs from all the rest: the Subsecretariat does not deal with the Budgets; only in the Defense Department there is a State Department that takes the accounts, the expenses and the income. It does not happen in any other department.

If we were in times of the cold war it might deduce that it is a copied model of the Soviet one. If we analyze the complicated of the childbearing of the Defense Department, we would extract the conclusion that is a small residual detail of the power of the Armies in the department.

When the minister has a little bit free, that thinks about this curious organization of his department. The consequence is the autonomy of the industry of Defense and the difficulty of fitting it into the general industrial policy of Spain.

The State Department of Defense takes as a principal function to deliver to the military men the weapon that need here and now. Previous, small industrial planning; early forecast, less. The State Department takes as a maximum priority to invent the financial formulae to pay the immediate demands of the Armies. Or the demands to attend "just in case". "Just in case" military man costs to the Spanish much more than the military need.

There we walk buying a few armored cars that will never be used ("just in case") while we run to the markets to buy vehicles RG-31 to what it is and as it is because it is the real need. It is an example.

And already that General Dynamics of shift will tell us that those vehicle necessary have been made in Spain. It will be - obviously - a pious lie. In this of the Defense or the things are defined with time or in the end it is bought what they want to sell to you.

I have heard that the State Department is going to publish a few books balancos on military needs. I do not believe it. Or the minister demands that it should clear up what it is necessary to buy and why or we will not have solution to this inefficient and expensive model that we have.

It is known that in all the countries that have forces fighting in the exterior, the debate on the means is permanent; but here it has not started because the organizational model has not wanted to be designed so that that is possible.

When the minister finishes the legislative works that it has now ahead, it has to sit down with the military men and to ask them: if the foreseeable conflicts are these (the document Sun porch will fix them) what weapon do you need? And then he will say to the Secretary of the State of Defense: there say to him to the ISDEFE and to the CEDETI and to the CEOE that if this weapon can sumistrarnos and when. I simplify very much, of course, but this way it is understood that the current model of provisions of Defense cannot continue; that the current model of organization of the Defense Department cannot continue.

The minister Chacón does not know what I wish one day to finish the important legislative work that it has attacked and to start working with the same enthusiasm and efficacy for the modernization of the model of provisions and organization of our Armed forces.

It does thirty five years a Defense Department was organized to the measurement of a few circustancias, it is already a time to put it in equality foot with the others.

Storms, flu A and economy

It is something that attracts attention of me for days: the Shoemaker's government has an aptitude to answer to any challenge that it could harm to the citizenship with a rapidity worthy of applause. We have lived through a very serious health challenge (the flu A) and the answer has been efficient and noisily coordinated. We have lived through a “perfect thunderstorm” from Canaries up to Fuenterrabía and the strategy of notice and prevention has been modélica. But with the economy some raisin therefore the things are not so efficient.

All the Socialists we are spending difficult moments it explains to the citizens what we do. It is a foolery, but the difficult thing is to explain what we do if what we do changes every fifteen days. It is not easy to tell why a thing freezes today and is defrosted on the following day.

Any lefts person can defend without problems that there is an agreement before the crisis. Even more, it is a big idea of political strategy. But what is very complicated is to rectify the messages every week.

Any lefts person can defend that it is necessary to try that the defenseless ones in the crisis have protection. But what is very difficult to defend is that that is done one day with the VAT and other without any VAT.

Any lefts person can understand that, with a life that gets longer, the pensions have to be calculated of another form. But what is very complicated to explain is that this proposal is not done in the institution that corresponds and without giving too many voices.

Any lefts person can understand that the crisis forces for that, which have insured salaries (the officials, for example), wait a little before asking for wage increases. But what turns out to be uncomfortable is that it is said today that the salaries are agreed and one declares tomorrow that them it is necessary to check the casualty.

It is impressive how this weekend the government has done pedagogics of the risk before a “perfect thunderstorm”. It is of applauding how the government has taken the possible pandemic of the flu A. Pero is incomprehensible that the government does not know afrontarde an equal form of simple the challenge of the economic crisis.

Someone in Moncloa should learn of the things well done before flu and thunderstorms. This crisis (like all the things in the life) can be simplified so that the citizens understand it.

I do it here, with the consequent risks on having simplified.

1st This crisis comes from a financial disorder produced by the banking of investments.

2nd This crisis does that countries as Spain are 15 % less rich. Assets placed us without value and we have not been efficient.

3rd This crisis does that countries as China become 15 % richer. They have been efficient and have had a model of public banking without contaminations.

4th to go out of this crisis it is necessary to accept some complicated things: a) that while the financial system does not have balanced balances there cannot be credit; b) that all the tourist services that we give it is convenient that it is 15 % cheaper; c) that all the products that we export it would be good that were 15 % cheaper; d) that the banking will invent risky assets again and that the Central banks are not capable of controlling the imagination of the markets; e) that - in case of Spain - it would be essential to count with a bank property of the State: it is not necessary to nationalize, is enough to hope that a series of financial institutions should be to the limit; f) that it is not possible to understand the ineffectiveness of the department of the Housing before the challenge of putting housings in rent on the market: Spain has never taken an occasion as this one to modify buy traditions.

5th it is not necessary to impress with the attitudes of the markets: it is necessary to understand them. I would like that there were in the departments nations who knew how there work the finance and the real estate agencies and the Stock Exchanges. Please, that nobody believe that meeting in Moncloa bankers or real estate or with markets operators the decisive thing is, no: they also in these meetings will sell his theories.

Naturally that it is necessary to listen to all and to applaud many people. But always to distrust.

6th The left has to realize very well that, to fight against this crisis (and others), it is necessary to meet very well the actors, the damaged ones, the hardware of the market and the possibilities of action of the modern State.

There are many pesoes who know what it spends in the managerial world, there are many pesoes who know of the drama of the unemployment, there are many pesoes that know the submerged economy, there are some pesoes that know the world of the finance, there are many pesoes that are ready to help so that the things are done by efficiency and of a progressive form.

But it is clear that (logically) Shoemaker does not read this blog.

The Government moves card

We already have some more concrete ideas on what topics they are going to write the parties in dialogue form. In parallel, the social agents already have ahead the proposals of the CEOE on a possible contract without indemnification. Simultaneously, in the Agreement of Toledo one is beginning analyzing the idea of reducing the global cost of the pensions route more worn out time or more calculated years. Equal some of you think that it is a little late; it can be, but the serious thing is that we already have ideas and concrete projects. Now to hurry up in the dialogue and the agreement, that the financial markets and the idle ones do not wait.

I am going to try to tell to you of what the thing consists. The first thing that it is necessary to realize very well is that the origin of the crisis is a financier and, the second thing, that in Spain this crisis reinforces for the ludicrous housing construction volume. Consequence: what it is necessary to do is to stabilize the Spanish financial system and to try to relieve the brutal unemployment of the sector of the construction.

Measurements proposed by the Government on the financial system and the liquidity of the companies: 1st, the Government will collaborate with the Spanish Bank to accelerate the restructuring of our financial system. 2nd, the Intituto of Official Credit (ICO) will be able to grant credit of up to 200.000 € to pymes and autonomous assuming the risk. There will be a private bank that (for contest) will assume the intermediation role. 3rd, The Administration will have to attend to the invoices in 30 days and the big companies with the pymes or autómos in 60 days.

Measurements proposed by the Government to support the employment in the sector of the construction: 1st, the VAT is exempted to 8 % in the rehabilitation of the housings and in the modifications that improve the energy efficiency. 2nd, 2.000 buildings of the General Administration and of the CCAA will be able to be rehabilitated by the funds of this Plan.3ª, the ICO will give resources to the promoters of housings of Official Protection.

Measurements of technological promotion: 1st, subsidy of even of 250 million € for businessmen who develop digital contents. 2nd, credit of 250 mill. of € to install Internet lines ultrarrápido. 3rd, commitment to come to 2,5%del GDP in investment I+D.

Reinforced competition: 1st, I support to the car eléctrico.2ª, review of the subsidies to the renewable energies. 3rd, collaboration with the private enterprises in the development of the railroad network.

There is more, but I believe that this is the principal thing so that we could continue the debate during these next weeks and know about what it is everyone who thinks.

You already know that I have the bravery of asking Shoemaker to read my blog. And it is logical that it does not do it. But, with this list of proposals, it seemed that it has seen it in some moment.

The management one has his logic

The idea of a contract of employment without social coverage for the young people, has produced a rejection mediático notably. It seems logical to me and I applaud the frightened answer of almost the whole world. I say of almost the whole world for a reason: do you think that the CEOE or mister Díaz Ferrán have gone crazy? I am afraid that we do not realize how important it is to understand the market and the control panel of the market. Sincerely: the difference between rights and lefts is precisely there.

Suppose that there is an impressive apple harvest. The prices of the apples will go down in a little time. Suppose that they skimp the oranges for the frosts of these days. The prices of the oranges will rise. Will anybody complain? Someone can be that yes, but the general opinion, no.

Now we have a tremendous workpeople offer in the unemployment. As never. And many, much young people or immigrants. Simultaneously, we have a small or very specializing employment demand. Result: the wages of the workpeople without employment should go down.

Let's see if this is understood: this happens in terms of bought cigar. That's why the CEOE (or Díaz Ferrán) has done the proposal that has done, because it understands and lives through the market.

Pongámonos in the skin of the CEOE. A businessman wants to hire a few workpeople to paint a few housings. It goes to the tail of the INEM and asks: do you want employment six months for 540 € a month? Here I do not say already any more and wait for answers of nations who are in the tail of the INEM.

Since this is what there has thought the CEOE (or mister Díaz Ferrán): if many people want work and there is few job vacancy the wages have to go down.

Do not doubt it: if an unemployed man of long duration has the possibility of working and of receiving a money, he will accept what is to attend to his needs.

And here the State and the left enters scene: or the market is corrected or we can come up to unsuspected situations of defenselessness of a worker.

Already that hurts that we have to pay (for example) a higher VAT soon, but when you pay it, you will be giving money to the State so that he could keep on paying something to the idle some who - otherwise - would get enthusiastic with the market and would be placed for what they wanted to pay to them.

The equal slavery might return with a certain logic of the market. Let's think.

The historical memory (with affection)

There have been located and identified the remains of several republicans shot in Malaga. His remains have been dedicated to his relatives in an exciting act in the Cultural club of Madrid. And I have remembered Alfonso Ussía. He is an intelligent personage, with humor and clearly of rights. He writes in “The Reason”. And he always remembers his grandfather, writer Muñoz Seca, who was shot in Paracuellos del Jarama (Madrid). I suppose that it is a bravery, but I would like debating with Alfonso Ussía on that thing about the historical memory.

When Alfonso Ussía or I land in the Cards airport we see to our right (in south configuration) an enormous white cross identical with the soil with the nearby hillocks. They have told me that it is the imperishable memory of the shot ones in Paracuellos del Jarama during the civil war. They were of rights.

When Alfonso Ussía or I land in the airport of Malaga we see nothing especially showy neither to rights nor to lefts. But it turns out that there is a common grave of shot with more than 2.000 remains. They were of lefts.

The pain is equal for all, but the political analysis of the dead persons is not equal.

The whole tremendous debate that departs from a few ideas and ends with a few rifles, has in Spain three different moments.

1st The Republic. I accept that he excited and frustrated to some. I accept that there were bullets of a side and of other. But there was a democratic Justice and an effort to achieve coexistence and freedom. A few military men closed the door.

2nd The civil war. Here it is possible to think what should love because an entire war is a war without limits. Swiss limits can be remembered, but the barbarism of the war has been it is and it will be difficult to channel. Each of the edicts has heroic situations and moments of shame.

3rd The postwar period. In this time, only there is a culprit of the pain: the pro-Franco dictatorship. Alfonso Ussía is right in remembering that they left his grandfather without life for his ideas. Franco's diet recognized it and we still remember it on having landed in Cards. Pero Alfonso Ussía (who is a gentleman) should admit that if he is lucky to be able to honor his grandfather, there are others that (for example in Malaga) wanted to do the same. They were not famous grandparents, but they were grandparents.

Whenever the historical memory criticizes that thing about, more I realize that there is the right the one that he does not want to remember. It is a sorrow. That not, that it is not a question of any discrimination strategy. That not. That Alfonso Ussía is not going to convince me in his ideas, but he can convince me in his pain.

Alfonso Ussía has to write one day in The Reason that understands that defeated in the civil war they should want to find his dead persons.

And this day we will begin understanding that that thing about the historical memory does not go with living but with dead persons.

Catalonia: do not become independent!

I do not live there, but I visit it. There are days that give desire of cutting mooring ropes and declaring themselves independent. I do not go of prank. I speak about Catalonia and speak about Spain. Minor topics are not any of the two. To fit Catalonia in Spain is possibly the best thing that can be done by Spain and by Catalonia. Already that many people think that Shoemaker has complicated the things with that thing about the Estatut. Pero Zapatero is the first prime minister of Spain who has found out that without Catalonia Spain is less than we think.

I understand that it is not easy to accept, but Catalonia has the best enterprising children, the best professionals in the matters of the future, the best technical staff in the technologies that approach. Catalonia has nations who understand the tomorrow.

Let's see if we understand each other: I need and demand that we all should be proud Spanish of Catalonia.

The strategy of demonstrating that you are Spanish by means of criticizing Catalonia must end already same. Good Spanish is the one that considers Catalonia to be one of the fundamental pieces of Spain.

For example, I do not like that the Catalan businessman mister Lara encourages with his newspaper “The Reason” the independence movement of Catalonia. This good person who is mister Maruenda (governing today of “The Reason”,) he has not found out about the strategy of his employer. Sometimes it happens. Lara wants to dominate an independent Catalonia because one believes that to be a proprietor of the small thing, guarantees to dominate the big thing. It is possible to mistake. For that he devotes himself to excite to the rights more complicated that still exist in Spain. Equal mister Lara is a good businessman, but of course it is a Spanish evil and the worst Catalan.

It seems very important to me that a campaign begins in all the means (of rights and of lefts) that they ask to Catalonia it not to become independent.

The fact is that Spain without Catalonia they remain almost dry. The fact is that Catalonia out of Spain is an anecdote Yugoslavian type.

Please, let's work so that Catalonia does not become independent. Because without Catalonia, Spain is small. Because without Spain, Catalonia is almost not at all,
