This document analyzes the impact of the March 11, 2004 Madrid train bombings on the subsequent Spanish national elections held on March 14, 2004. It discusses how the incumbent Popular Party's support for the Iraq War and its mishandling of information after the bombings led to its defeat by the opposition Socialist Party. The Socialist Party withdrew Spanish troops from Iraq after winning the election. The document also discusses the memorialization of the 192 victims of the Madrid bombings.

The document discusses the 2004 Madrid train bombings (known as 11M) and their impact on Spanish politics. It describes how the bombings, carried out by Al Qaeda and killing 192 people, reversed public opinion polls ahead of elections and led to an electoral defeat for the ruling conservative party. The socialists gained power and promptly withdrew Spanish troops from Iraq, reflecting the public's opposition to involvement in the Iraq War that motivated the bombings. Victims' families criticized how politicians and media exploited the attacks for political gain rather than seeking truth and justice.
Power point presentation
A bomb attack in Nazran, Ingushetia killed police officers and others. The bombing damaged claims that the new president was bringing the region under control. The Ingush president, who had recently survived an assassination attempt, blamed western powers for being behind the attack and trying to prevent Russia from becoming a world power again. A second summary discusses the history of the Basque separatist terrorist group ETA in Spain and their goal of independence for the Basque Country. It provides details on the largest terrorist attack in European history on March 11, 2004 in Madrid, which killed 191 people through coordinated bombings on trains during rush hour. The perpetrators were later identified as an Islamist cell through evidence found in bombs

Emergency services were overwhelmed as they tried to help the wounded. In the following days, over 100 people were arrested in connection with the bombings, though it was determined Al Qaeda was not directly involved. A memorial garden was later erected near the bombing site with 191 trees to honor those killed.

The Spanish Civil War had major consequences for Spain and the world. For Spain, it resulted in over 300,000 deaths and nearly 500,000 people forced into exile. It led to a nationalist dictatorship under Franco that lasted until 1975 and isolated Spain internationally for decades. For the world, the war highlighted the struggle between fascism and communism and drew foreign powers like Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and the Soviet Union to intervene on opposite sides.

INTELLECTUAL LIFE UNDER THE SPANISH INQUISITIONDAVID GOODMAN
Intellectual Life under the Spanish Inquisition:
A Continuing Historical Controversy
DAVID GOODMAN
The Open University
Abstract
The effects of the Spanish Inquisition on Spain’s intellectual life have long been a topic
of heated historical controversy. This article surveys the arguments dating from the late
eighteenth century to the present. It illustrates the extreme views held by opposing sides,
views often sustained more by passion and prejudice than by sound historical research.
The results of recent research over the last three decades, explicitly conducted with the
intention of eliminating prejudice, show not only surprising conclusions but also the
complexity and intractability of some of the questions posed relating to the influence of
the Inquisition on Spain.
‘
S
pain is perhaps the most ignorant nation in Europe. What else can
be expected of a people who wait for a monk to give them freedom to
read and to think.’

This infamous outburst, resounding with con-
tempt for Spanish intellectual life, was widely disseminated in print in 1783
through the most ambitious publishing venture of the French Enlighten-
ment, the
Encyclopédie méthodique
, a mammoth universal encyclopaedia
that reached to 196 volumes in quarto (and even then was unfinished).
The caustic words came from Nicolas Masson de Morvilliers, lawyer and
geographer, in his extended article on Spain for the subsection of volumes
of the
Encyclopédie méthodique
entitled ‘Géographie moderne’.
Masson’s contribution consisted of descriptions of Spain’s rivers,
mountains and climatic zones, dispassionate descriptions, interspersed
with volleys of stinging condemnation of Spanish society. Why did Spain
have such an astonishingly low population density? The causes identified
by Masson were emigration to the New World, smallpox and a prodigious
crowd of celibate clergy, whom he designated the useless sector of society.
Above all, Masson blamed the influence of the Spanish Inquisition:
‘Wherever this odious tribunal is established, it restrains liberty of action

Domestic populist policies are the current Hungarian response to Europe’s refugee crisis. In the past two years, anti-immigrant movements and hatred of Islam have been important subjects in society. Certain voters in Europe feel unsupported by current governments and policies, so they seek solutions to change things.
03. coup. short version. without video
The February 23, 1981 coup attempt in Spain aimed to overthrow the democratic transition. Led by Colonel Tejero, General Milans del Bosch, and General Armada, the coup involved storming the Parliament building and deploying troops in Valencia. However, King Juan Carlos defended democracy in a televised speech, ordering the military to support the legitimate government. Most Spaniards demonstrated in favor of democracy. The coup leaders and supporters were later arrested and sentenced to prison terms.
Current State of Censorship & Surveillance in Spain
Spain has experienced significant censorship and government surveillance in recent years. The 2014 Gag Law made many forms of protest illegal and increased penalties. The government has also conducted surveillance operations like Cesicat and Pandora/Mate that profiled activists, lawyers, protesters and journalists. A documentary called "Dead City" explored these issues of censorship and control of dissent in Spain since the 1930s Spanish Civil War. There is now greater public discussion of police corruption and torture of protesters in Catalonia and Spain.
Restoration of Monarchy in Spain between 1874 to 1931
Between 1874 and 1931 in Spain:
1. The monarchy was restored under King Alfonso XII after the overthrow of the First Spanish Republic. Antonio Cánovas de Castillo established a constitutional monarchy with limited suffrage.
2. During this period, Spain struggled with problems like caciquismo (political corruption), latifundismo (unequal land distribution), illiteracy, and the rise of regional nationalist movements.
3. In the early 20th century, dissatisfaction with the monarchy increased as left-wing ideologies like anarchism and socialism gained popularity. The dictatorship of Primo de Rivera ruled from 1923-1930 amid unrest, until the establishment of the Second Spanish

This document summarizes the similarities and differences between the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution and the 2013 Million People March protest in the Philippines. Both movements saw large numbers of Filipinos uniting for political change - the 1986 revolution sought to end Ferdinand Marcos' authoritarian rule and restore democracy, while the 2013 march aimed to abolish the controversial Priority Development Assistance Fund or "pork barrel" system due to corruption scandals. While the Million People March hoped for one million participants, only thousands attended, compared to the millions that participated in EDSA I. However, the 2013 protest utilized social media and involved coordinated rallies nationwide. The document reflects on how some political figures switched sides between supporting the pro-dem

Mexico is the second most dangerous country for journalists after Iraq. Since 2000, 57 journalists have been killed in Mexico, most of which remain unsolved. Drug trafficking has become a $19 billion industry in Mexico, employing over 500,000 people. Journalists face threats, kidnappings, and killings for their coverage of the drug war and cartels. Their work is also impacted by self-censorship due to fears of retribution. Solutions proposed include protecting journalists, combating corruption, and informing the public while verifying information and taking safety precautions.

This document summarizes a passage about Germany's recent recognition of the Armenian genocide and the political context surrounding it. It discusses how Germany became the 27th country to officially acknowledge the genocide, angering Turkey. While Turkey recalled its ambassador to Germany and may take further action, full deterioration of German-Turkish relations is unlikely due to economic ties. The passage also examines why the US has failed to recognize the genocide for over 100 years, despite some domestic support, due to lobbying efforts from Armenian and Turkish interest groups.

The document summarizes the history and current state of media in Mexico. It describes how media evolved from propaganda tools during independence wars and political conflicts in the 19th century to becoming more pluralistic and privatized in the late 20th century. However, investigative journalism remains limited, with most coverage focused on "infotainment" like scandals and crime events. The document also provides statistics on current Mexican news consumption habits, with television being the main source of news for most citizens.

The rise of nationalism in europe
Nationalism emerged in 19th century Europe and led to the establishment of nation-states in place of multi-national empires. French revolutionaries promoted French nationalism through symbols like the flag and language. Liberal nationalism promoted individual freedom and representative government but excluded many groups. After 1815 conservative forces sought to preserve traditional institutions. Nationalist movements in places like Germany and Italy led to the unification of those countries, often through warfare. The rise of romanticism in the 1800s fostered national identity through folk culture. Economic hardship fueled popular revolts with nationalist overtones. By 1900, European imperialism and nationalism interacted in complex ways around the world.
The Neo-Genocide of Afrikaners
News24 reports on March 20, 2009 that approximately 30 South Africans are arrested in Brazil each month on charges of smuggling narcotic drugs. South Africa emerged as a key position in the global business of the smuggling with narcotics.
On February 4, 1994 a farmer in the Ogies district, near Witbank in Mpumalanga, was brutally murdered.

Solidarity's list of victims reports as follows:
"Johannes George Prinsloo (64) of the farm Wildebeestfontein was assaulted by three men. Prinsloo was tortured for hours - his toe and finger nails were pulled out with a pair of pliers. He was stabbed and burned with heated firing tongs or stoking iron, all over his body. His corpse was covered in whip lashes. His torturers forced the late Mr. Prinsloo to lie on burning coals. He died of multiple injuries. An inquest found that his genitals were bruised, his neck and skull were broken and his teeth were smashed. His spleen was also torn."
This is only one of the gruesome murders that devastate the Afrikaner community. The debate whether these incidents are politically motivated, is irrelevant. According to the American Armed Forces these are typical injuries sustained in war, and genocides. The white South African community is blissfully unaware that they are involved in, and the targets of, one the most grisly revolutionary wars within living memory. They are also unaware of the fact that they are perceived to be the enemy, as well as the target of terrorists.
Years of communist inspired state-propaganda and psychological warfare against the Afrikaner is taking its toll.
This ignorance is primarily due to the Marxist government's control and manipulation of the media. That the media is important to the Marxist ANC/SACP alliance government is proven by resolution 9, as taken in Pietersburg (Polokwane) regarding the SABC:
Resolution 9, number 25 states: "The public broadcaster, the SABC, continues to play a critical role in shaping opinions of our Nation and therefore remains an important role player in the National Democratic Revolution."
The ANC was interweaved with communism since 1928 and with the help and under instruction of the KOMINTERN (the Russia based, international management of global communism) deliberately and purposefully worked to establish a black, communist government in South Africa.
Terrorism, international terrorism as well as international organizations like the United Nations, terrorism states and strategically based communists in Western intelligence services, under which Britain’s M15's executive chief, were instruments in the ANC’s communist struggle. Over a period of 66 years it collaborated to establish a black communist government in South Africa.

The rise of nationalism in europe
Nationalism emerged in 19th century Europe and led to the establishment of nation-states in place of multi-national empires. French revolutionaries promoted French nationalism through symbols like the flag and language. Liberal nationalism promoted individual freedom and representative government but excluded many groups. After 1815 conservative forces sought to preserve traditional institutions. Nationalist movements in places like Germany and Italy led to the unification of those countries, often through warfare. The rise of romanticism in the 1800s fostered national identity through folk culture. Economic hardship fueled popular revolts with nationalist overtones. By 1900, European imperialism and nationalism interacted in complex ways around the world.
The Neo-Genocide of Afrikaners
News24 reports on March 20, 2009 that approximately 30 South Africans are arrested in Brazil each month on charges of smuggling narcotic drugs. South Africa emerged as a key position in the global business of the smuggling with narcotics.
On February 4, 1994 a farmer in the Ogies district, near Witbank in Mpumalanga, was brutally murdered.

Solidarity's list of victims reports as follows:
"Johannes George Prinsloo (64) of the farm Wildebeestfontein was assaulted by three men. Prinsloo was tortured for hours - his toe and finger nails were pulled out with a pair of pliers. He was stabbed and burned with heated firing tongs or stoking iron, all over his body. His corpse was covered in whip lashes. His torturers forced the late Mr. Prinsloo to lie on burning coals. He died of multiple injuries. An inquest found that his genitals were bruised, his neck and skull were broken and his teeth were smashed. His spleen was also torn."
This is only one of the gruesome murders that devastate the Afrikaner community. The debate whether these incidents are politically motivated, is irrelevant. According to the American Armed Forces these are typical injuries sustained in war, and genocides. The white South African community is blissfully unaware that they are involved in, and the targets of, one the most grisly revolutionary wars within living memory. They are also unaware of the fact that they are perceived to be the enemy, as well as the target of terrorists.
Years of communist inspired state-propaganda and psychological warfare against the Afrikaner is taking its toll.
This ignorance is primarily due to the Marxist government's control and manipulation of the media. That the media is important to the Marxist ANC/SACP alliance government is proven by resolution 9, as taken in Pietersburg (Polokwane) regarding the SABC:
Resolution 9, number 25 states: "The public broadcaster, the SABC, continues to play a critical role in shaping opinions of our Nation and therefore remains an important role player in the National Democratic Revolution."
The ANC was interweaved with communism since 1928 and with the help and under instruction of the KOMINTERN (the Russia based, international management of global communism) deliberately and purposefully worked to establish a black, communist government in South Africa.
Terrorism, international terrorism as well as international organizations like the United Nations, terrorism states and strategically based communists in Western intelligence services, under which Britain’s M15's executive chief, were instruments in the ANC’s communist struggle. Over a period of 66 years it collaborated to establish a black communist government in South Africa.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
