Catalunya calls today to the World.

To all Cucumers who live in countries under some kind of oppression or abuse, as well as to those who live in freedom, I ask heartily to give us, Catalans, a hand divulgating this link:

[THIS ONE]

Maybe you could send it to some friends and relatives... We just want to be known and understood.

Your knowledge is --or will be-- freedom for us.

Thanks a lot!

I've posted this link on my Facebook wall

Look at this, cucumers:

This

"...don’t provoke the lion, because he will show the ferocity proven over centuries." This is a real threatening of violence, where does he think he is, this guy, back in 1936? or at the time of the Inquisition?
These old ganaches (military in general) are always ready to crush people!

... We are all hallucinating down here, Franck.
Fortunately, we do not believe that this can happen anymore, being as we are in the European Union… But feelings are growing more than warm.

Here I post the complete quotation, and the link to “The Telegraph” (quoted paper):

"The risks of a misjudgement are growing. The king caused irritation in Catalonia this week by warning against the seduction of “chimeras” – his first such crisis intervention since 1981.
A serving army officer, Colonel Francisco Alaman, has fuelled the flames by comparing the crisis with 1936 – when Gen Francisco Franco seized power – and by vowing to crush Catalan nationalists, described as “vultures”.
“Independence for Catalunya? Over my dead body. Spain is not Yugoslavia or Belgium. Even if the lion is sleeping, don’t provoke the lion, because he will show the ferocity proven over centuries,” he said.
Retired Lt-Gen Pedro Pitarch, a former army chief, said the words reflect “deeply-rooted thinking in large parts of the armed forces”. He also accused Madrid of bungling the Catalan drama disastrously.
“Are we looking at a failed state?” he asked. Investors holding Spanish debt are listening carefully."

It's on my Facebook wall.

That's very kind of you, MÃ¥ddie !
Thanks a lot !

You are welcome. I am actually glad to meet a Catalan here, and not to mention one who is a good friend of Franck's.

Let's just hope the video will get the attention you need.

I do not know what to think about Catalunya asking for its own independence... it leaves me a bit puzzled, it reminds me a lot of our secessionist and racist party "Lega Nord"

We are not a party, Alex; we are a whole people. We are a Nation.
And I can assure you that we are not racists !!
Catalonia has always been -for many centuries- a country of shelter, welcome and well-being for immigrants from Spain and from all over the world.
Ask a bit around!
Please!!!
