Spanish Prime Minister Takes Sides in Mid-East Conflict

13:21 H | Topics: Controversia - Politics - Spain

zapatero.jpgAs the conflict between Israel and Lebanon continues to escalate, one Spanish Prime Minister is making his position on the situation known and is taking some heat for it. Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero was recently photographed wearing a Palestinian scarf. This combined with his comments that Israel is using "abusive force which does not allow innocent human beings to defend themselves" has people calling the Socialist prime minister an anti-Semite. It certainly is a complex history that Israel has with its neighbors, however doesn't it seem that whenever anyone criticizes Israel they are called an anti-Semite?
