I would welcome all necessary sanctions to stop Israel in Gaza, but I am wondering how much of Mr. Sanchez’ ongoing focus on this issue is owed to his own fight for political survival. He contracted China’s Huawei for Spain’s wiretap system. In August, his government started to investigate the judge who charged Mr. Sanchez’ wife with corruption, while Mr. Sanchez’ government has been facing another corruption scandal implicating senior figures in his own party since the start of this year.

As much as I agree with him regarding Israel, I don’t buy into his moral stand.
