Nothing is accidental in politics. Still less if behind are the allies of a Government designed for ideological confrontation , not for administrative effectiveness, as has become evident after the negligent management of the health crisis. For this reason, after the last extension of the state of alarm and with the de-escalation already in its last phases, the populist and independence partners of Sánchez have returned to their objectives, taking advantage of the moment of uncertainty and the absence of an alternative majority capable of preventing their purposes, which go through the breakdown of the Transition consensus and questioning the symbols of national sovereignty .

The first to act was the State Attorney General's Office. Without there being any news in the investigations that Anticorruption has been carrying out for years on the case of the AVE commissions to Mecca , Dolores Delgado signed a decree in which he left the investigative measures in the hands of the Supreme Court prosecutors , thus giving way to Podemos, ERC and EH Bildu to redouble their attacks on the Crown . All of them are joined by their contempt for the parliamentary monarchy, as guarantor of the unity of the State and its permanence. And in this sense, despite episodes such as the withdrawal of the portrait of the King Emeritus from the Navarrese Parliament, they do not seek so much to know what happened, but to harm Felipe VI as much as possible , whom they have put in the spotlight from their firm and forceful speech against the coup in Catalonia.

The next target is Felipe González . Our readers know that this newspaper has been very critical of the socialist management during the years in which he was at the head of the Government, mainly due to the dirty war orchestrated from it to combat ETA terrorism. But using a CIA document, which had been declassified since 2011, to request, as EH Bildu will do, a commission of inquiry into the GAL - uncovered by journalists from Diario 16 and EL MUNDO - is still an opportunistic operation that, a Once again, its objective is not to clarify the truth, but to wear down the former president, at the moment when he has begun to show his discrepancies with the coalition government and with allies such as Rufián and Otegi. González, with all his shortcomings as a ruler, is undoubtedly a benchmark of social democracy who cannot but be critical of those who seek to end a national project whose achievements are, in part, his merit. This conception of democratic socialism is incompatible with socialism of the 21st century, which was invented by the leader Hugo Chávez and has been adopted by Iglesias and Sánchez himself. No, nothing is accidental in politics.
