Diego,
My guess would be if JDS had lived in your country, CITR wouldn't have been quite so innocent, as
i guess that the 'phonie-rate' would be somewhat higher.
I'm not really shocked that they approve of the wedding, if the Dutch, which can with some right occupy
some more highground, COMPLETELY ignore the implications of this wedding, nothing can shock me
anymore.
Did you know that apperently the Queen rejected the former girlfriend, because HER father did
some tax-evasion/fraude? Makes one think, doesn't it?
On the lighter side:
I meet a lot of you country men-and women here in Holland/Europe, at least I can understand their
castellano, unlike the Spanish which do a good job of hacking and swallowing it up ;-)

Dear Zazie, I can top your embarassment. Take this from
someone whose mail address ends with ".ar".
Being 25 myself, in this country, I feel that my generation's
most corresponding geistliche Zeitgenossen are the sons of
alleged Nazi soldiers. We have inherited some form of guilt,
an we deal with it by means of social condemnation of known
unconvicted perpetrators, since decisive legal actions are no
longer viable.
Surely you have heard about the "escraches", that is, public,
shameful exposure of criminals from that time, wherever it is
possible. Still, some people find something quite unfulfilling
in this procedure, something with the sour aftertaste of
retaliation.
It might shock you to know that most people here approve of
the marriage of Maxima, too. I can understand why your crown
prince may entertain no doubts about the marriage. Why should
he, if the courts in his father-in-law's country have ruled in his
favour? The whole issue is very irritating.
I am pleased to know that you have strong ethical convictions.
Maybe all we have left is Scottie's injunction, "Dou YOU read
any history?". And we should take that capital YOU very, very
seriously.
