Of all the things that are falling apart lately, with the world increasingly turned upside down by the crossfire between Israel and the United States against Iran, and Iran against everyone, with the world economy in suspense due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the price of oil (and with it the possible inflation of everything else), here we are calculating whether ‘No to war’ will mobilize the progressive vote if President Sánchez decides to call elections.
It is exhausting, really, that we have to see everything with the sanchismo/anti-sanchismo axis. Until the risk of a third world war. Let’s see. A torpedo fired by a US submarine has sunk an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, the first torpedo in combat launched by the US since the Second World War, while we calculate whether when Sánchez stands up to Trump he is actually calculating an electoral ‘super Sunday’ this spring that will coincide the Andalusian elections, the Catalan elections and the general elections. And, be careful, maybe that’s what he’s doing. Using foreign policy for internal problems is a very Spanish vice.
Meanwhile, the NATO defense system has shot down an Iranian missile heading into Turkish airspace and Greek fighters have taken off from Cyprus over suspicious objects from Lebanon. And the United States is encouraging the Iraqi Kurds to enter the conflict against Iran. A hornet’s nest that increases the risk of a civil war if the ayatollah regime ends up completely collapsing.
Now he tries to follow the chaos of global geopolitics, comparing it with the calendar of Ábalos in the Supreme Court, the succession of Yolanda Díaz in Sumar and how out of place this would catch Junqueras and Puigdemont. Not about Iran, about Super Sunday.
If Sánchez’s calculations are electoral, he will be interested to know that Pete Hegseth, the former Fox presenter turned Secretary of Defense, or rather, Secretary of War,… Hegseth recognizes that the conflict is going to last longer than expected. Eight weeks now. Let’s see how that fits with the Andalusian ones.
Moral?
The war gets out of control
here the Spanish exception continues
