Idk about Ireland, I could believe they are actually against it due to their history. But while the people of Spain strongly condemn it, and Spain thus puts out statements opposed, the government still supports it materially. Every so often they claim to stop buying/selling weapons from them, but continue to do so.
Unless I've missed something recently which is entirely possible I guess.
And as for other countries making noise of discontent but continuing support, that's still support. Joe Biden publicly claimed to call for ceasefire all the time, but continued to send weapons and never actually seriously demanded a ceasefire. It's rhetoric to subdues the populace on a topic they strongly disagree with the government.
Exactly, i hate how people think Spain "condemns" Israel because Pedro Sánchez pays some lip service to satisfy it's voting base, but in actual reality they support Israel. Every single time that Pedeo Sánchez has states that they are no longer doing business with Israel, it's proven that they indeed continue doing business with Israel.
People only caring about fucking rhetoric and not reality drives me insane.
Hey you're the person who inspired me to look into Spains record on this like a week ago! I was passively accepting Spains rhetoric and you calling them out in a comment reply to someone else inspired me research deeper. Each one, teach one.
Glad that it didn't fall on deaf ears! I understand that many people fall for the rhetoric since most of the media unveiling the hypocrisy is in spanish, not english.
