By Kamel M. – The young Moroccan whose images show him crying and begging a Spanish soldier to let him reach the shore told his adventure to a Moroccan media which was able to find him in his native village of Ksar, in the far north of Morocco. The illegal migrant, who was one of the approximately 10,000 of his fellow citizens who invaded the enclave of Ceuta, explained that he was orphan of father and mother and that he (sur)lives with the woman who left him. took in at the age of six under difficult social conditions.

The teenager had prepared a makeshift buoy in the form of empty plastic bottles to avoid drowning during the perilous crossing from Morocco to Spain, a distance of twenty-seven kilometers. He was believed to be writhing in pain, due to some cramp, but he claimed that he was rather begging the soldier in front of him not to prevent him from treading on Spanish soil and not to force him to turn back, he who, he confided, fled the great poverty in which he lives as well as a majority of Moroccans who are close to starvation.

"The Spaniards welcomed us, they took us to the center [detention], offered us food and clothes, then they sent us back to Morocco", said the young man who does not despair of being able to leave Morocco permanently to be able to "live a decent life in Europe". “Here there is nothing, there are no prospects, there is no work or dignity,” he complained, making sure to add the adjective “busy” each time. after the word “Ceuta”, like a lesson learned by heart, in a Pavlovian way, by the Moroccan regime to its subjects, even if they were oppressed and revolted by the Makhzen and its dictatorship.

The words of this young presage other similar actions in the future, which means that Spain is not at its last invasion which it suspects was planned by Rabat but that it would have lost the control. It is via social networks that Moroccans spread the word, probably manipulated by the secret services who wanted to take revenge on Madrid, which is hosting the Saharawi president in one of its hospitals. It must have escaped the Makhzen that among its subjects who were going to take part in the "blue march", hundreds of them were going to speak to the media about the disastrous economic and social situation that reigns in our western neighbors . Even the French media, which usually serve as a hideout for the predatory monarchical regime of Mohammed VI, could not divert their gaze to the "gigantic achievements" that make Morocco a country "that is advancing by leaps and bounds to the point of competing with the world's major economic powers.

The crisis that resulted from the failed "landing" programmed by the Moroccan authorities sounded the death knell for the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nasser Bourita, who justified this massive influx by "a fatigue of the forces of order after a month of fasting" ( sic). Such ineptitude comes as no surprise, as Moroccan diplomacy is known for its childish behavior.
