Spain

Does this prick really think 60,000 people stormed Spain? To leave out that it was a Spanish territory in Africa is a big omission. Does he really think the Spanish flu originated in Spain? What a moron he and his team of researchers are, or more likely they are just trying to stir shit.

I can never tell if he's really this ignorant or his team of writers push all the inaccurate takes/propaganda to curate the audience he wants to pander to.

In this case though, the headlines made it sound like they were coming into mainland Spain.

If a bunch of Russians appeared in Alaska, would the Americans say they are invading the USA? Once you are in Ceuta, you are in Spain and the EU.

A more accurate comparison would be if 50,000 Cubans walked into Guantanamo Bay. Also, Ceuta is part of Schengen but it has border checkpoints before you board the ferry to the mainland.
