At this point, there will be no one who has not seen the tremendous images of the entry into Ceuta of more than seventy thousand people.
The figure is almost equal to the population of Arrecife, and with that comparison, perhaps we can get a more accurate idea of what that entry meant, by thinking that all of Arrecife was practically emptied instantaneously.
But there is also another case with very similar figures: the murders committed by Netanyahu's genocidal regime in Gaza.
If it is difficult to imagine Arrecife suddenly becoming empty, imagining more than seventy thousand dead is completely impossible, and perhaps that is why, because the number of dead overwhelms us, the Zionist massacre is becoming merely a bitter memory.
A memory revived now precisely by the entry into Ceuta. Revived by seeing how hatred spreads, how the weakest are dehumanized.
For the right, the seventy thousand dead in Gaza had no value whatsoever in the face of Israel's sacred right to deliberately confuse its right to exist with its intention to eliminate the Palestinian people.
Likewise, for the right, our right to control and defend our borders has no limits and can be imposed over the obligation to protect minors and grant dignified treatment to those who have entered our country irregularly, while their possible expulsion is processed, in accordance with the norm.
But the truth is that neither Israel's right to defense, nor ours to defend our borders, are without limits, and they have a very clear one in the respect for Human Rights.
Perhaps that is why some insist on completely dehumanizing both the seventy thousand in Gaza and the seventy thousand in Ceuta, giving free rein to their hatred, their racism, and their xenophobia disguised, in this case, as defense of the Homeland.
I wonder if those who sow hatred have ever thought about the day after they achieve their goals. I don't know if in their delirium they think they will be able to reap the hatred they have sown or if they intend to continue living with hatred.
I am left with the doubt of whether they are stupid or evil.
