Under Aznar, Unemployment fell by 19%, a zero level of deficit was achieved, and inflation fell below 2%. GDP grew, taxes were reduced, and public services improved. State-owned companies were privatised: Iberia Airlines, BBVA, Telefónica, Repsol, Aceralia. Public spending was decreased and uptake of private healthcare increased.

The socialists were utterly demolished in the local elections last week. Looks like the Popular Party may win next year.

“Israel should declare that all capital inflows from Spain into Israel will be tax free for 25 years....”

That’s genius.

Unfortunately, while this article is about Spain, it could just as well have been about many other countries. All this would do is instigate deeper economical reasons to put embargos on Israel, which would play into Europe’s old canards against Jews.

I’m probably taking your suggestion more seriously than you intended it, but I do think Israel needs to fight back in clever ways like that.

Aznar was a good man. I would trust any of those men sitting there. Not like the weak garbage ruining the world today.

It will be governmental, on the national level, not the individual.

Daniel 7:14
He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.

Joel 3:2
I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land.

Obadiah 1:15
“The day of the LORD is near for all nations. As you have done, it will be done to you; your deeds will return upon your own head.

OK Spain then give back the southern borders of your country back to the Arab Muslims in the land they conquered and named New Andalusia a few centuries ago. You frauds!

FReepers?

Standing *against* Israel?

When I first came to Free Republic twelve years ago it was crawling with anti-Semites, some of whom used the names of Nazis as their screen names (though to be fair they were always opposed by philo-Semites here). Eventually most of them were banned (especially after 9/11) but there are still a few "palaeos" here who hate Israel's guts and blame it for all the unrest in the world.

Spain, Spain have you forgotten your endless war of liberation against the Moors? Your ancestors are rolling over in their graves at your perfidy.

Isn’t there a line in the Bible that says ..... The whole world will be against Israel

Zec 12:1 ¶ The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.

Zec 12:2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah [and] against Jerusalem.

Zec 12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
