Among the falsehoods and devergonzadas licking of the heroes of the Spanish-American homeland, certainly the worst occurred last Saturday. The fact achieved unbearable indignity being a report of Weekly Report Spanish public television, TVE, on the eve of Columbus Day.
"200 years of independence and 500 of oppression, draw the current map of latin america" ​​. So begins the story, falsehood after falsehood and they know that is a lie. Let's take.
"200 years of independence," he says, I wonder if those who did not belong to the burquesía Creole, if the Spanish, the Indians lived if the alleged independence. The local bourgeoisie well represented by these heroes of independence, skipped any external control to seize political power, as the economic already had it. Uncontrolled, did what they wanted in the name of their new homeland, expropriated, expelled and exterminated he wanted. Yes, read well, exterminated, see for example the king's ear or the "conquest" of the desert and on the ticket of 100 Argentine pesos.

Does the desert is conquered by soldiers?

But he also did something regrettable, sold the supposed freedom of their nation to others. Because the bad guys are the Spanish. He went to England first, their friends involved, it is logical because most of the founding fathers were Masons dependent English lodges, very nationalistic indeed what a coincidence!. Proof of submission to the British Empire is for example the independence of Chile , the War of the Triple Alliance or the creation of macrocephaly Aires. Then came the U.S., there is no need to elaborate known to all.
He also said "500 years of oppression" from 1492 is clear, it seems that did not live before the pre-Columbian peoples oppressed. Just living in permanent war, submitting to one another. It has a rationale: there was no beef cattle, so the amounts needed to feed large cities such as Tenochtitlan came from the prisoners. Yes, the sacrifices, the design of their weapons and everything else were to do that so. But gentlemen is that the Spanish were the first to apply what we would call human rights upon arrival. Isabella first with recognizing the rights of Spanish subjects somo Indians and later with Charles V and his Board of Valladolid . The Indians and other people were protected by law against abuse of power that had, as now and in Europe itself. Chiefs of the place and governors should account for their abuses finally the latter on impeachments before the King himself. There was oppression, especially of the English and French raided the coastal towns, destroying what was built by Spain. Cities rose, showed them a common language, defended them, I took the plow, the wheel, the alphabet and a myriad of improvements comparable to Roman legacy ... What left the English and French? Nothing but genocide and war. That does oppression. I encourage you to know how people lived in Lima in the eighteenth century, there was no city equal.
Above are in conflict, recognizing oppression in the daughters of Spain, yes very independent. Go away hear the horn!
At least recognized in the report that the historiography of Latin American nations, in relation to their heroes, not all truthful and that little speech deberiera of heroes and do not believe anyone.
The rest of the story and saw it. The topic was interesting, but what really struck me was that two Spanish journalists, were able to synthesize and use in one sentence all those stereotypes about the passage from Spain to America. Stereotypes created by the Dutch in the black legend, maintained by the English and refried for freedom lovers like Hugo Chavez Bolivarian. But who are those who have perpetrated such nastiness?:

Look, ladies and ladies, I do not care, I felt an indescribable disgust on hearing such a phrase in my television, because I'm Spanish. I am very proud of the legacy of my nation and I'm tired of that cowardly appeasement sheeplike and falsehoods made by genuine rabble. I would urge that go along with that deliverer and his advisers agorilado ETA or to devote his time to truly innovative reports. I recommend for example that some research along the lines of pre-Columbian cannibalism and its impact the organization of such companies. They could also try to uncover the relationship of the heroes with English Freemasonry and a criminal as Miranda, and discover which was the elimination, I say unfortunate end, each of them.
I guess they will not do any of these things, it is politically incorrect, especially with the policy that they filled the manger. Should apologize, there are brothers overseas more Spanish than you. Juntaletras, apesebradas, treacherous and cowardly, in my not being Spanish makes me sick, you disgust me.

PS2: For shame, besides good stick travel, study or read a bit please.

Today I'm going down to the mud, I'm going to muddy a great time, but boldly headed, something that people without any moral guts or dares to do. I'm thinking: Zapatero and Rajoy.

The first and no surprise, a guy who can not run despite presiding over our government, someone who is great and everything that makes decisions only statesman (yes, the kind that hurts but you have to do for the general good) when powerful people tell who knows what. For several years I've been making decisions detrimental to the country (Nice) and even his own party (abortion for minors) without any explanation, but they were good times and impact, well seasoned by similar means, is minimal. Now things are so bad that they throw outside the ears. I was glad it was decided to take the bull by the horns for "the good of the country" as he said. Unfortunately it is so cowardly that momentum deflated like a balloon day. He has already shown it.
The second without having to show their ways of governing, but by their attitudes and shows that it is worse. He has lost two elections and lost a third. He who boasts of a patriot, knowing that a character is uncharismatic and vacillating leading his party, is unable to be set aside to provide an alternative to the useless that governs us. But can the ambition and pride. If something noble or patriotic party would have cleared the rabble, which had been renovated and run off after muddy. With a pair. But of course their goal is not Spain, not to offer a valid alternative is to go to the History of Zapatero's hand as one of the worst politicians who have given birth to Spain, which is saying something!.

The cycle is finished, it is perceived, something comes and looks very ugly. We can only seek an alternative to these cowardly to threaten his crib and be forced to change the model and their attitudes. Get carried away by the stream is another option, but we Forewarned is forearmed: Run for your lives!.

Interesting publication. Perhaps expensive and bulky but it is one of those little treasures that any lover of history you would like. The Atlas of Spanish explorers is a creation of the Spanish Geographic Society after years of painstaking work.

The book is structured chronologically, from ancient times today. It is designed for use encyclopedic, but also as a book of second reading to deepen those adventures that both leave us speechless. The publisher responsible for editing is Geoplaneta (linked to Lonely Planet) and the painful price is 45 €, but the good pay.

As one of the authors, is a vindication of our scouts, people who give them soup with both English boasted waves. "We know not to sell," said the same. Well, let's do it and for this we must first know what we've been swiped in our education.

Well, we have before us the second lecture of the series " The Spain-century modern ocean and underwater treasure Spanish "organized by the Royal Academy of History . Masterfully led by D. Luis Suarez Fernandez spoke on The Iberian Sea at the time of discovery, and it was found that the maritime domain was not unique to the Golden Ages of England and as we have been led to believe, but the Castilian and Aragonese sea were very powerful, to the point of walking by the Thames subjecting the English will. And whoever wants to hear, let him hear:
