DAYUM! Can we hire some of them?............please?.........
I guess “Basque Country” hasn’t caught the woke-marxist-antisemitic plague that has infected the rest of Spain.
Basques have a reputation for their fighting skills but the pro-Hamas crowd decided to FAFO anyway.
Could it be too much too hope for that Greta "How Dare You?" Thunberg was among them?
Well, you can clear out, or we can beat you down.
OK, we’re just gonna stay here and hug on the floor.
‘What happens in Spain STAYS in Spain.’
Who doesn’t already KNOW this? ;)
Basque Independence Now!
Hypocrisy, thy name is Spain!

Trying to “knock some sense” into left wing wackos.
Wait a minute. I thought it was Israel that treated them bad. 😳

That’ll take a much larger baton. 😉
I once saw a documentary about such letters.
Trivia: Ugarte actually says they were signed by General Wegand rather than General De Gaulle.
I went back and listened and he did say Weygand. (11:30 mark in the film)
Wegand => Weygand
The Spanish Police are professional and polite but firm. They want you to know they are in charge and not you. F around with them and they will F you up.
I have been to Spain many times and never had a problem. I was always polite and they were always very professional but firm. If you are a foreigner and speak Spanish they are very pleasant. Last time we went to Spain we spoke no English but rarely. We stayed in hotels where middle class Spaniards stay. I speak Spanish and my wife's first language is Spanish which we speak at home a lot. Spain is a great vacation and the food is excellent. Spaniards are very serious about their food!
Now who would have expected that?
We have French friends I have landed in Bilbao by air, scary night due to weather. our friends said there are no muslims in Basque territory. I thought good for them. also their language is unique and not really traceable to any other. Basque country is beautiful. only a fool like these would land there and think they would be welcomed.
Agree, sent some time in San Sebastian.
