A group of Iberian organizations active in the field of care for victims of terrorism called on the Spanish political parties not to agree to the parliamentary proposal to “naturalize” the leaders of the “Polisario Front” and to grant them pensions from taxpayers’ money.
These organizations have warned that the leaders of the “Polisario Front” will try to benefit from the aforementioned proposal, which concerns the granting of Spanish citizenship to the displaced in the southern provinces of Morocco, by falsifying their personal data in order to benefit from retirement pensions for life.
The same organizations called on all political parties represented in Parliament to oppose the proposal, considering its “contemptuous and humiliating meanings for the victims of terrorism in the Canary Islands,” stressing that “the Polisario Front launched violent terrorist attacks on Spanish citizens.”
the Andalusian Association of Victims of Terrorism, the Canarian Association of Victims of Terrorism, the Catalan Association of Victims of Terrorist Organizations, and the Murcian Association of Victims of Terrorism, pointed out that “the leaders of the Polisario Front launched more than 300 terrorist attacks against Spanish civilian workers, most of whom hail from the Canary Islands, during the period from 1974 to 1987.
The widows and orphans of the victims of terrorist attacks never benefited from retirement pensions, according to the same source.
