I have 3 fans: Become a Fan. You'll get emails whenever I post articles on OpEd News
I have a Licence in Economics with the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain, and a BA with the UK Open University, and earned an MA in European Literatures and Languages with the University of London, Queen Mary College. I can speak and read several languages.
I grew up under the Franco dictatorship in Spain, and was living in Paris in May 1968. I belong to a leftist tradition, and I am an anti-war and peace activist. I work as an independent and I am the editor of Iron File, a weekly on-line compilation of articles, op-eds, bloggers' comments, etc.
I have espoused the Palestinian cause since I was a student, although I was busier opposing the Spanish and Latin American dictatorships, and of course, the war in Vietnam. Since the Palestinian call for internationals to protect the Palestinian people, in particular since the "Rampart Operation", I have been involved as a priority in solidarity action for Palestine.
I also oppose Western involvement in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya, et cetera.
