BREAKING: Spain’s DEFIANT President Pedro Sanchez on Trump’s ceasefire: “We will not applaud those who set the world on fire.” Spanish President Pedro Sanchez just delivered the single best response to Trump’s ceasefire announcement that any leader on earth has given.

While others offered polite diplomatic nods, Sanchez went for the jugular:

“Ceasefires are always good news. Especially if they lead to a just and lasting peace. But this momentary relief cannot make us forget the chaos, the destruction, and the lives lost.”

And then the line that will be remembered: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.”
That is the whole story of this war in one sentence.

Trump started this war without congressional authorization. He bombed schools, universities, pharmaceutical factories, vaccine research centers, a music school, and a synagogue.

He killed thousands of civilians. He sent American service members into harm’s way with so little planning that their families fled Bahrain with backpacks and had to beg for toothpaste when they landed. He drove gas to $4.30 a gallon.

He cratered global markets. He threatened to destroy “a whole civilization” on social media before breakfast. He alienated every ally America has.

And now he wants credit for the ceasefire.

This is the man who declared “Power Plant Day.” Who wrote “Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards.” Who mocked Islam on Easter morning. Who fired the Army’s top general out of paranoia during a war. Whose spiritual advisers told him the bombing was fulfilling biblical prophecy.

Forty days of devastation. Thousands dead. Historic institutions reduced to rubble. Billions of taxpayer dollars burned.

And none of it needed to happen. Not a single day of it. He chose this.

Sanchez is right. You don’t get to start the fire and then take a bow for calling the fire department.
