When the world‘s worst terror-sponsoring regime puts your words and a message of gratitude on a missile it fires at a civilian target, you might want to reassess your position. Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, this means you.
An Israeli Foreign Ministry official shared footage on X on Monday, apparently showing a man applying a sticker with a quote from Prime Minister Sánchez in several different languages to one of the missiles the Iranian regime has continually launched at civilian targets. “Of course, this war is not only illegal, but also inhuman. Thank you, Prime Minister,” says the English translation. The first sentence is a quote from Sánchez criticizing the joint U.S.-Israeli operation against Iran’s genocidal regime. Israel interspersed the footage of the Sánchez quote on the missile with clips of Iranian strikes on civilians.
The Iranian regime didn’t just praise Spain’s PM @sanchezcastejon - they put his face on a missile.

A missile aimed at civilians.
Where did it land?
Jerusalem? Tel Aviv? Dubai?

Notably, with the strike on the Diego Garcia base, the Iranian regime proved that it has such a long reach that it could even strike European nations like Spain. Yet many of Europe’s governments have acted as if there was no immediate threat from the Iranian regime, despite almost 50 years of terrorism.
Sánchez is continually on the wrong side of history when it comes to Islamic jihad. You would think Spain’s woke government would have learned its lesson with its mistakes regarding Iranian proxy Hamas. One of the vessels in the pro-Hamas “Freedom Flotilla 2,” the Guernica, was from Spain.
In May 2024, mere months after the worst day of slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust (Oct. 7, 2023), the Spanish government approved recognition of a state of Palestine, which has never existed in history. Sánchez repeatedly condemned Israel instead of Hamas for the conflict in Gaza. Even as Hamas tortured Israeli hostages to death without a single Palestinian lifting a finger to help them, Sánchez chose to blame Israel, falsely accusing, “This is not self-defense, it’s not even an attack — it’s the extermination of a defenseless people.”

Then, in September 2025, the Spanish government stepped up its arms embargo and import ban on Israel. In response, Hamas reportedly issued a statement, “We appreciate the Spanish government's decision today to ban arms exports to the Zionist occupation and to close Spanish ports to ships transporting weapons and military systems.”
That’s right, the terrorists who on Oct. 7 burned alive and beheaded babies, performed the most grotesque rapes, gunned down or kidnapped entire families, and gleefully filmed themselves doing it all thanked the Spanish government for its action against Israel and in favor of Gaza terrorists. And somehow that didn’t make Sánchez and Co. reassess their dealings with the fundamentalist Muslim world.
Instead, Sánchez is still making false accusations against Israel as Iranian missiles cause one mass casualty event after another in Israel. Sánchez and the Spanish government are quite literally on the side of genocidal mass murderers who are trying to commit a second Holocaust.
