Mohamed VI and his human projectiles
La munición con la que Marruecos dispara contra España una y otra vez es su propia gente
Imagine the scene. August 7, 2014. A Civil Guard patrol boat spots a group of vessels —two yachts and three jet skis—in suspicious behavior two miles off the Ceuta cape of Punta Almina. The officer in charge asks its occupants to identify themselves. One of them takes off his sunglasses and asks: don't you know who I am? It is none other than Mohamed VI.
The Civil Guard tells him that he does, but that he has to inform his superiors. The King of Morocco, meanwhile, calls Felipe VI, who in turn phones President Mariano Rajoy, and he calls Interior Minister Jorge Fernández Díaz, the one who has just been tried for the alleged clandestine police operation to spy on Luis Bárcenas. For an hour –imagine the scene again, that crossing of glances in the middle of the sea between the King of Morocco and a conscientious Civil Guard officer–, the calls follow one another from bottom to top and top to bottom.
Finally, the agent lets Mohamed VI and his friends go, and a few days later the minister from the Popular Party goes to Tetouan and apologizes profusely to his Moroccan counterpart.
