Not like Spain is causing this. This is Israel and the US.
Spain still supports the Western empire by being in it and benefiting from the exploitation of the periphery. The EU alone has done plenty to support the atrocities in the Middle East, and Spain has, at the very least, witnessed all of that (if not actively participated) and still sees fit to stay in the EU.
Full political and economic support of the US's invasion? Not even ruling out Canadian military involvement in the future? Oh sorry, "regrettable" full support. Like that makes it okay. As a Canadian, Canada's response to this has been disgusting. And especially ironic for a country whose sovereignty the US is also threatening, but I'm sure if you help the leopard hunt other prey they won't turn around and eat your face after.
Canada and every other Western country should be raising hell over this and isolating the US for its unprovoked invasion of another country. Canada got so high and mighty about sanctioning Russia for Ukraine, what makes this different? God forbid you expect moral standards your country has been on a high horse about for the last several years to be equally applied to the West.

So it is not Britain, France, the US, the Soviet Union that destabilized the Middle East. It is the EU, that without an army, a common foreign policy and a common mandate that caused it.
And Spain obviously, those evil apathetic monsters.
NATO bombed Yugoslavia and the middle east, screw you
NATO is not EU
