The leftist Sumar and IU parties threatened to leave the government if the contract was executed, so the “socdem” PSOE has canceled the contract.

    The bloodlust of the west is genuinely incredible; as if munition supplies from the United States, Germany and the UK are somehow not sufficient to wreck the lives of countless Palestinians

    No, EVERYONE has to pitch in for the slaughter, otherwise what happens? The ADL makes a snide comment on social media or some dipshit zionist deputy minister rants about how the Spanish are “moorish dogs”

    The fuckin mindless insanity of fascism

      It’s the other way around — Spain was purchasing bullets from Israel in order for Spain to fulfill its commitment of 2% GDP toward military spending for NATO.

      They’re still wrong, but for different reasons.

      The center left socdem party has the most seats in the coalition and leads the government, they canceled the deal so that the far-left junior partners wouldn’t pull support and collapse the government probably. No purging or taking power is happening.

      And if the government did collapse and elections happened the left (divided between Sumar and Podemos) wouldn’t really gain from it, and it could very well lead to a right-wing majority.
