Pirates everywhere

I wish the pirates here in Catalonia would be as fun as this one here in one of the Restaurants that nestle against the inner side of the old city wall.

As you know, the reason why I post so little this month is the nervous tension I (and unfortunately millions of others) go thru in these moments. And that I post so little for sure is the smallest and less important consequence of the irresponsible way that the radical group that right now governs Catalonia has decided to take.

The last week I was sitting here in front of the computer with several windows open with news tickers from different political views to get an image of what was going on, while the police helicopters flew low over my house, letting the doors of my wardrobes tremble, making terrible noise from the morning to the evening.

The streets are filled with demonstrations of people wearing flags, shouting loud. Police cars let their sirens sound.

The confabulated reasons of the radical group for their behavior is the repression poor Catalonia receives from what they call the fascist Spanish state. The bitter truth is, that in fact what they really seek is simply instability and creating conflict within Catalonia, Spain, Europe. An internal strategical paper found by the police and published a few days ago reveals their terrifying plans.

For the complete lack of reasonable arguments they must fill the news with "proofs" of this repression, and to be able to do so, they must provoke violent acts from the states side. They were able to provoke some police assaults, but far less than they wished, and far less than they spread. Accusing's of sexual assaults committed by the police could not be proven although there are millions of mobile phones capturing what ever happens. A woman spread the story that policeman had broken all fingers of her hand, one by one, but then tapped her phone with those "broken" fingers and never assisted a hospital or a doctor.

They spread freely invented numbers about the votes of the illegal referendum last 1st of October as if they were facts, while they strictly deny any neutral recount of those alleged votes. There were many, but nobody knows, how many. It is a propaganda war.

Meanwhile they threaten us with the beginning of a new civil war.

It is not a moment that really stimulates my creativity.
