Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez stood before the press and disclaimed responsibility for the fifty-seven lives lost when fifty thousand migrants stormed the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, crushed against fences or swallowed by the sea. The socialist leader blamed trafficking gangs and hinted at Moroccan complicity, yet the same government has long preached that borders themselves are immoral and that Europe must atone for its existence by absorbing every claimant.
This is not an accident of administration but the deliberate outworking of an ideology that treats the historic nation as an obstacle to be dissolved. Sánchez and his allies have followed the same path taken by the Biden administration, converting sovereign territory into a corridor for demographic replacement while the managerial priesthood celebrates each new arrival as moral progress.
The City of Man has always sought to erase the distinctions God placed among peoples. Scripture records the division of nations at Babel and the subsequent command to Israel to maintain its inheritance; the undivided Church later defended those inheritances against successive waves of conquest from the seventh century onward.
Spain itself once understood this duty. The Reconquista recovered the peninsula from centuries of Islamic occupation precisely because Christian kings refused to treat their borders as optional or their peoples as interchangeable economic units. Sánchez’s refusal to defend Ceuta inverts that inheritance and accelerates the same civilizational suicide that emptied Constantinople in 1453.
The deaths in the surf are therefore not random tragedies but the predictable harvest of a policy that elevates abstract compassion above the concrete duty of rulers to preserve the households and lands entrusted to them. When a government declares its own frontiers immoral, it invites traffickers to treat human lives as cargo and neighboring states to weaponize migration.
Those who still confess the sovereignty of God over nations must now reject the Dispossessor and his creed. Restoration begins with the plain recognition that lawful borders are not cruelty but the minimal condition for ordered liberty and the survival of Christian peoples.
The faithful remnant cannot outsource this task to supranational bodies or corporate interests that profit from the flow. They must demand leaders who will close the gates, repatriate those who entered unlawfully, and recover the ancient Christian conviction that each nation bears responsibility for its own inheritance before the throne of God.
