Its blatant propaganda to get people to lose sympathy towards Spain as it is going against US interests. And as I'm scrolling down the comments, I can see it works. So many people are "shocked" and "upset" that spain would do this. Or claiming it's being done for that sweet Iranian oil or at least for passage through the straight.
No, Spain is just going back to the pre-war situation as every other country will sooner or later. But the other countries haven't been as much of a pain like Spain was so they aren't getting an article about it.

You’re not wrong about the killing children with impunity. Spain is part of the EU and Israel has a population smaller than North Carolina. Attacking a Spanish embassy would have repercussions both immediate and long term. Israel’s long term geopolitical security depends on Israel remaining an ally of the western world. America has shown its political can change drastically election to election and it is no longer a safe bet as a long term partner. That leaves the EU and a handful of countries like Canada and Australia. It would be shortsighted to attack a Spanish embassy.
The US on the other hand would be able to do it without a second thought and further their speedrun into being a geopolitical leper colony without allies

At the risk of sounding like a d***, it may shock you to learn that Spain already has embassies “all throughout the world”.
I don’t think it’s fair to say that Spain is “protecting Iran”. Spain has an embassy in Iran. Bombing it would be extremely illegal. Spain’s embassy predates this war by more than 100 years. Keeping your embassy open isn’t exactly a wild thing to do. Targeting that embassy on the other hand would be insane

And even before this big one, they would constantly kill and imprison political opponents and protesters. It was a constant human rights abuses.
Outside of political prisoners, they would also execute KIDS, literally only country that still has capital punishment for kids and it would be for shit like "crime against religion".
So their kill rate was always high. When they came to power they killed like something like 5-20k depending on who you ask. And not the kind of "we killed militia" type of thing, but legit just teens with no weapons whom they deemed not to be commited to Islamic Republic enough.

There is no clear, agreed-upon estimate for the death toll from the 2026 Iran massacres during the protests. Official Iranian government figures stand at 3,117 deaths (including about 200 security forces), but independent sources and human rights groups report much higher numbers, with verified counts around 7,000 and estimates up to 36,500.

Y’all ignorant folks go listen to Sanchez’s speeches. He’s giving constant rallies, interviews, and press conferences railing against the illegality of Trump’s war and Israel’s strikes on Lebanon. It’s not a cynical economical decision. Our PM is a committed anti fascist and Europe’s most vocal critic of Trump, Musk, the Gaza genocide, misogyny, fascism.
His whole slogan for his stance on the US Iran war is that the US is asking for accolades and praise for throwing a bucket of water on the raging inferno it started.

Some people don’t have principles. They treat politics like a team sport and their morality is based on “which side” and not actions. Complexity has no place, just a simple black and white, us vs them, good guy vs bad guy narrative — an easy, polarized binary applied to every situation. So easy you don’t even have to learn anything.
And some(many) of those comments are fresh astroturf attempting to amplify that type of thinking and make people easily influenced and controlled.

US regime is the worst thing in the world right now . Killing thousands and not even everyday american profits. Just big Corps. Controled by mad dog Netanyahu.

Israel and the US together have murdered far far more civilians in Gaza alone, nevermind every other violent adventure they have waged the past 80 years.

Why 30.000 and not 45.000 as others say ? Or 60.000 ?
Anyway, what you think will happen to your country when you enter existential war ? They are gonna let you vote or debate about things ? No. It will be on marital law.
And all I see is Iranians protest for their country every day, and willing to die to protect their infrastructure as they showed us 2 days ago.
I do not need to agree with them. I do not. I do respect their fight for their freedom as they see it.

Well, then you should have read the actual article instead of the comments. Spain is absolutely not giving express citizenship to anyone, they are giving a 1 year work permit. From that work permit to potential citizenship it takes 10 years of flawless behaviour.

Anti-Trumpism makes sense but supporting an oppressive authoritarian state that just killed thousands of unarmed citizens makes no sense.

Makes sense when you remember that Iran financed party leaders of the spanish government coalition.

Spain you’ve been very sensible and a voice of reason lately, but I don’t think this is a wise move

Well if Israel bombed a synagogue in the Tehran , im sure they'll bomb the Spanish embassy to get back at the criticism they've received from Spain

Americans aren't fully aware of what is going to happen to their future and livelihood. Or they are aware and would rather ignore it. No bad deed goes unpunished.
