In the respected newspaper in Spain: "Trump is scarier than Putin, Netanyahu is scarier than Khamenei
Chanel 12 News (Israel) ^ | 6 April 2026 | Assaf Rosenzweig

Poll in Spain: Trump and Netanyahu are seen as two of the three most dangerous leaders in the world.

Trump was ranked as the biggest threat to world peace, followed by Russian President Putin.

Spaniards perceive Netanyahu as more dangerous to peace than Iran's new leader.

81% of survey respondents said Trump is endangering global peace - more than any other leader.

The Spanish government is considered the most hawkish in Europe against Israel and President Trump's policies. Why it matters: The survey reflects the worsening criticism in Spain towards Israel and the US, also among citizens and not just on behalf of the government.

According to a new survey published in Spain, Spanish citizens are more afraid of US President Donald Trump than Russian President Vladimir Putin, and are more afraid of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.

The survey published today (Monday) in the newspaper El Pais, one of the most widely distributed and popular in the country, asked "which of the following leaders poses a danger to world peace." According to the data, Trump is seen as the biggest threat, followed by Putin. In third place is Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, followed by the new Iranian leader.

The poll reflects widespread rejection by the Spanish public towards Trump, the report said:

63% said that Trump greatly endangers world peace, and another

18% said that he slightly endangers world peace.

52% said that Putin greatly endangers peace, and another

28% said that he endangers it slightly.

46% said that Netanyahu greatly endangers peace in the world, and another 25% said that he endangers it slightly. 33% said that Khamenei Jr. greatly endangers peace in the world, and another 30% said that he endangers it slightly. Also on the list, in order, are North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

The survey article also states that "the findings sharpen the public perception in Spain that Trump is a more destabilizing factor than Putin, despite the war being waged by Russia, and also place Netanyahu ahead of Khamenei in the threat ranking - a figure that illustrates the extent to which Israel's policies are perceived to affect the international situation."

The survey was conducted at a time when Spain is establishing itself as the most hawkish government in the European Union against the war on Iran in particular, and against the policies of President Trump and the State of Israel in general. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has sharply attacked the war in Iran, often speaking out against Trump's actions and against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Last month, Trump threatened to expel Spain from NATO, and also threatened to withdraw from NATO himself, while Spain blocked the movement of American planes on flights related to the war in Iran. The survey raises worrying question marks, proving that the positions against the US and Israel in Spain are not only in the area of support for the anti-Israel government, but also extend to the areas of support for right-wing parties.

A reminder the leader of Spain is so anti-JOooo, Iran thanks him by putting his face with a "thank you" message before launching at Israeli civilians.

It stands to reason.

Spain is considered a “post-Christian” or heavily secularized nation, despite having a deep Catholic heritage and many citizens still identifying as culturally Catholic. While a majority may identify as Christian, only about 18–36% are practicing, with high percentages of non-religious, atheist, or indifferent individuals.

This is like a high school softball coach criticizing the LA Dodgers as being ‘harmful to baseball’:

1. The comments are completely inconsequential.
2. Both the US and the Dodgers act in their own best interests. Not those of Spain or the local high school. Not of anyone else. Both play to win. Others need not apply... nor are they even heard.

Couple of friends are coming back from Spain this week. They had some problems. They said that they would never go back.

Spain hasn’t been relevant since 1588.

“”81% of survey respondents said Trump is endangering global peace - more than any other leader.””

***

Well, I mean... first of all... there is no such thing as “global peace”. Never has been and never will be.

And the irony is... the ones that are really threatening peace, the bent on conquest Islamists, are being given a pass by the globalist ghouls and are being enabled and assisted by Euroweinie globalist “”leaders””.

The lines between evil and good are being drawn quite clearly. Those that choose evil are either self-identifying or being exposed by Trump’s actions and by his very existence these days (lol). It’s all in God’s hands. But the ones that are the real threat are anti-God. They will FAFO.

Many people are afraid of freedom, afraid of being responsible for their own life.

Great, just as we’re headed to Spain for vacation. I found out recently that I can’t even carry a pocket knife in Spain unless I’m actively engaged in a line of work that requires me to use one daily. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

Well, they are adjacent to the Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys in France.

Not surprised.

Spain used to be my favorite European country. That ended decades ago.

And Uncle Walter Commiekite on CBS News was once “the most trusted man in America”.

The now-geriatric boomer idiots who once believed that STILL swallow every bit of swill the liberal media feeds them.

So much for “trusted” sources.
