This October 12 is celebrated on Columbus Day, the day of the English and Spain as a nation. This day celebrates Columbus, a guy who probably was not English, was in error to a continent that had arrived 500 years before Leif Eriksson. Does this casualty defines us as English? Is this day worthy of celebration? Would we be less English if the ships of Columbus had been sunk in the Atlantic? Do you collect this day, the essence of our Celtic and Iberian roots, the Greco-Roman civilization instilled by the Romans, or the input and tdo-cultural by the Germanic peoples and Afro-Asian (Phoenicians, Carthaginians , Arabs and Berbers ) that have passed through Spain? 3000 years of history reduced to a boating accident . I will not celebrate the day in Spain this October 12, will celebrate a week later, on 19 October. This October 19 met 540 years of marriage between Isabella and Ferdinand, the current kings who shaped the English nation, heir to the Visigothic Hispania Roman. I think this date, the marriage of these kings, symbolizing the birth of our modern nation, and should be declared a National Day of Spain.

difference between xenophobia and anti-cyclical migration

The other day my cousin told me at his headquarters military civilian staff is composed entirely of Muslim immigrants. Immediately I was struck by terror at the irresponsibility of the English government. Firstly, it is outrageous that four million unemployed, the State give preference to immigrants than English. In addition, taking into account the particular conditions in military barracks, in reference to national security and our own soldiers, I believe that including Muslim foreigners as civil staff is a double irresponsibility. Obviously, you can not criminalize an entire religious community by the act of a few, but we can act so irresponsible with the safety of soldiers, putting "any" in a position easily accessible to privileged information. No one would think, for example, relocating ETA prisoners in such work. Well, it can certainly PSOE that comes to mind. And in this sense I think that civilian personnel of the military barracks should be beautifully chosen, whether Muslim, Christian or atheist.
However, I noticed that the discussion becomes to another issue that is much more trivial. My cousin argued his disapproval of Muslim workers barracks with veil. I, however, I supported his right, provided it was from his personal freedom to wear it. The veil is part of their culture. For example, I'm English here in Spain, but I was when I visited Morocco. Under any circumstances by anyone admit that I demanded that, to be in another country for any reason, acquire the habits of that country. That would mean giving up my nation, the history of my people and my habits. I am English in Spain and wherever you go. Similarly, I believe that it is wrong to force people from other nations to renounce their culture, history and identity by being in Spain. Many repudiate the immigrants, not because they are foreign, but because they are different. This is xenophobia, and is inadmissible. All peoples have the right to exist freely and maintain their own identity and culture.
I oppose frontally to immigration, for reasons already explained in another post ( About migration processes), but I have nothing against immigrants or against their culture and their home villages . It should not be confused her opposition to migration xenophobia.
