Ethan Hunt took us in 1996 to vibrate in some unlikely, fun, novel, modern and technological scenarios. In that project, 80 million dollars were invested and 458 million were raised, almost six times more. Quite a success. 22 years later and after 5 films, the sixth installment was released with an investment of 178 million and a collection, for now, of 791 million, about 4.5 times more. 6 successes in 22 years and a trail of fun, laughter, popcorn and the magic that always surrounds movie afternoons. As for the formula, it is as simple as that people like that good and evil are differentiated and that in the end, the good guys always win by giving important lessons to the bad guys. Having lived that rewarding experience, we are satisfied to have a drink and until next time, which may be in three or four years after which we will voluntarily fall back into the same scheme, no matter how much that proposal is the seventh, it will not matter. Because the Mission Impossible saga is reliable, predictable and, therefore, a safe bet regarding the expectations with which you go to see it.
But what film does the PSOE offer to Spaniards in the electoral campaign for the general election on April 28, 2019? From the outset, the Party that boasts of a centuries-old antiquity hides its very dark stage from its foundation to the present. Starting with some moment of its devilish history, we begin with the Tragic Week of Barcelona in which in 1909 the socialist terrorist Francisco Ferrer said: "We are not interested in making good workers and employees, good merchants. We want to destroy the current society from its beginnings." This terrorist led killings and desecrations of tombs. The following year, 1910, Pablo Iglesias described Ferrer as a "man of ideas" and stated: "The PSOE comes to look here (to Congress), to this body of an eminently bourgeois character, what utility it can find, but the totality of its ideal is not here. The totality must be obtained in another way. My party is in legality while it allows it to acquire what it needs; outside when it does not allow it to achieve its aspirations." The founder of the PSOE, in addition, threatened the president of the Government of Spain, Antonio Maura, with death, who 15 days later received three shots. Eight years later and in line with the Russian revolution, the PSOE tried to destabilize Spain by promoting violent revolts in the so-called Bolshevik Triennium 1918-1921. The story continues and takes us to 1923 and the PSOE's support for Primo de Rivera's coup. In 1931, some senior leaders of the PSOE denied women the right to vote. In 1934, the PSOE led a coup d'état against the Second Republic, as it was still determined to implement a Marxist-Leninist totalitarian system in Spain like Stalin's in the USSR. In 1936, the PSOE joined the Popular Front with the unwavering objective of ending democracy and embracing the dictatorship of the proletariat, leading the Spanish to civil war. In that year, it directly participates in the checas that murdered more than 60,000 Spanish civilians and steals 510 tons of gold from the vault of the Bank of Spain for a value today that could exceed 20,000 million. Already in the present democratic stage, a government of the PSOE practiced state terrorism murdering and making corpses disappear in quicklime and starred in countless cases of corruption turning the socialists into the most corrupt Party in the history of Spain. And, finally, the PSOE has shown in the last 40 years that every time it has abandoned power, it has left behind very serious situations of economic recession, record unemployment rates and skyrocketing debt and deficit figures. After all, misery for the Spanish.
Although the perverse historical events starring the PSOE, which I have just related above and which the socialists so carefully hide, could in themselves constitute the script for a horror film, there is one that I have not included and that I have reserved to expose below: the current president of the Government of Spain, of the PSOE, was so 10 months ago thanks to those who shortly before led a coup d'état trying to end our country, coup plotters who are being tried for rebellion in the Supreme Court. In addition to those, the current president was supported in his arrival to power, without the vote of the Spanish, by a Chavista communist Party whose leader was financed by an Islamic fundamentalist country and by those who have led to an absolute economic and humanitarian chaos to Venezuela, despite having been an oil power. The lethal counterparts, and unacceptable for Spain, that are demanded by those who made the enlightened one of the PSOE president are evident, who, to top it off, plans to reissue the same pacts with the same enemies of Spain to continue governing after the elections.
The Mission Impossible that Ethan Hunt offers us, installment after installment, is child's play compared to the one offered to us by Pedro Sánchez, since the truly impossible thing about the 2nd is that some Spaniard votes for him, given the nauseating past that the PSOE script has and, above all, the damn future that it poses. I hope this opinion article does not self-destruct, nor is it destroyed by anyone, in five seconds. But, you never know.
