The donkey of the minister

Yesterday, the Audiencia Nacional (the Spanish Court) published a debatable judgement over the manipulation on the reports of the scientific department of the Spanish police on the terrorists attacks on the 11-March on Madrid. I am not a legal expert to analyze the judgement, but for me is extremely clear, by reading it, that the reports of the experts were manipulated or changed.

First, let me express that I do not believe on Justice on Spain. Justice, specially on this type of matters, is extremely politicized. What can one expect from the Justice on a country on which the political afiliation (on a strict or on a figurative sense) is more inportant that the facts themselves? What can one expect from a Justice on a country where the judges are more know that their judgements? What can one expect from the Justice in Spain when the judges, specially on the Supreme Court, are elected by the political colour than by their knowledge, when there are judges from other countries that entered on the judiciary career on Spain from the back door? Nothing but political judgements.

Mr. Rubalcaba, the PSOE spokesman that violated the reflection day on March, 13th that year, insisting on “Spain does not deserve a government that lies”, is violating again the common sense. Mr. Rubalcaba (and media like El País) are defying the PP (Partido Popular) to forget that facts, to desist in the attempt, in the need, of knowing all the truth about those attacks. Why?

It is clear that the truth, most likely, will not benefit the PSOE. Were the socialists who violated the reflection day on March, 13th. Where the socialists (Mr. Zapatero in front of them) who called the media insisting on distracting the attention and hindering the work of the Aznar government, whom they were asking for real time information. Where the SER radio station who said that rests of islamic terrorists were found on the trains with several underpants. So… who is hiding the truth? Who is looking to know anything about the terrorists attacks?

The ask of Mr. Rubalcaba to “stoop the donkey” (to desist) is applicable to him. He has a donkey, with a police inspector face, from which he does not want to stoop. But there is not a problem for a person who lives on the manipulation and the lie. The next step will be, as it as be on another similar affair, to promote inspectos to the position of admirals, or generals.
