Spain hates our "nationalism" and calls us "nazis" but in fact we only try to keep alive our culture, the fascits here are them.

Thank you very much. ||*||

We only want to be free. It's esay to understant. We have our ancient language and history. We aren't spaniards, we are catalans. How Spaniards can explain that we are forced to speak spanish? We are forced to pay the highest taxes in Spain? Or that we are forced to live in a state that never respect our culture? We only fight to have our state. And we fight pacefully. Thanks Peter, best regards from barcelona and Visca catalunya Lliure.

By the way: Thank you so much for your interest towards Catalonia and its reality. It would be so nice that all the foreigners had, at least, just an slightly interested about the country as you have (and I include the Spanish people who move to Catalonia). We are subjected to a huge secular injustice, which has never been solved and it gets worse one day after another.

Greetings!

Despite the obvious historical facts behind us, the main reason of the independence is the fiscal deficit, that keeps Catalonia in a very uncomfortable and unfair position within Spain. But it's not only due the money: Spain (it includes its Government and a large representation of its society -althought not all of it-), has never respected the catalan reality and has never made any effort to solve it. So, my answer is clear: VISCA CATALUNYA!

Artur Mas, premier of Catalonia, talked last monday in an article in Financial Times about "divorce" between Catalonia and Spain if the central government were to refuse the new economic deal that is demanded from Catalonia. “So our project in the short term is fiscal sovereignty ... In the longer term, we’ll see” he said."

Hey Peter!

I studied for a year in the US, and I also tried to spread the Independence message but I didn't succeed as much as your friends did! I was very glad to hear your words, and I just want to let you know that over here we keep working for our independence. You can asure your friends this: independence time is coming soon.

Per la resta, avui en dia ser català i no ser independentista és ser massoquista, treballem tots junts per la independència. UNIU-VOS A SI! Visca Catalunya lliure!
