Juan Goytisolo

July 30, 2005

Drawn for an article (written in March) dealing with the hysterical voices (in frames) against migrants arriving from muslim countries into Europe. Prestigious Spanish writer Juan Goytisolo (who resides in Morocco) has another view. He proposes (the rich Westerners) to help those countries to improve its population standards of living in the first place. Now, there is a problem: if poor peoples start to rise their standards, they will compete for energy resources with the rich; so, what’s the point? On the other hand, the “War on Terror” brings lots of funds (and jobs) to the Defence and Spy industries helping our own economies. The choice is clear, isn’t it?

Dibujado para un artículo (escrito en Marzo) sobre las voces histéricas (en recuadro) alzadas contra el arribo a Europa de inmigrantes de los países musulmanes. El prestigioso escritor Juan Goytisolo (quien reside en Marruecos) tiene otra visión. Él propone (a los ricos occidentales) empezar por ayudar a mejorar el estandard de vida de los pueblos de esos países. Pero hay un problema: si la gente pobre mejora su estandard va a competir con los ricos por los recursos energéticos; así que ¿qué sentido tendría?. Por otra parte, la “Guerra contra el Terror” atrae muchos fondos (y puestos de trabajo) a las industrias de Defensa y Espionaje, ayudando a la economía propia. La elección es clara, ¿no?
