“Ninos Rabados”: Spain’s Stolen Children

Some real sick people.

Virtually the same thing happened in Chile during Gen. Augusto Pinochet's years in power. They took the babies and gave them to families who either belonged to his regime or supported it.

On another note, on behalf of all sane Americans I’m apologizing for the idiocy some of my deluded fellow citizens are spewing. From one American to another, I’m begging you – please shut your mouth because you are making all of us look bad. I would suggest that instead of bashing Spain you should try picking up a history book, but the school books don't teach the kids in this country the whole truth.

Considering the number of innocent civilians our military and the CIA has managed to slaughter during their various misadventures, we have no business criticizing Spain for what their country did decades or centuries ago. Look at what the immigrants in this country did to the Native American Indians. And since our schools don’t teach ANY of this: You are about to get a history lesson on those misadventures.

1955 – 1975 The Vietnam War: Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos. Roughly 2 million Vietnamese, 200,000 – 300,000 Cambodians, and 20,000 – 200,000 Laotians die, ostensibly to stop the spread of communism. Actually to line the pockets of scumbags like Lyndon Johnson whose wife owned stock in Bell Helicopter. The scumbags like Johnson literally made a killing, becoming filthy rich over the course of the war.

1954 Guatemala – CIA overthrows democratically elected Jacobo Árbenz in a military coup. He’s replaced with a series of right wing dictators who proceed to kill over 100,000.

1959 Haiti – The US military helps François "Papa Doc" Duvalier become dictator. His personal henchmen the Tontons Macoutes proceed to terrorize the population with machetes. Over 100,000 Haitians killed during the Duvalier reign of terror.

1965 Indonesia – CIA overthrows democratically elected Sukarno with a military coup. His successor General Suharto proceeds to massacre between 500,000 – 1,000,000 civilians. The CIA is more than happy to assist.

1970 Cambodia – CIA overthrows Prince Sahounek. Cambodians loved him because he’d managed to keep them out of Vietnam. He’s replaced by CIA puppet Lon Nol who proceeds to get them involved up to their ears in it. This leads to the rise of the Khmer Rouge who goes on to massacre roughly 1.7 – 2.5 million fellow Cambodians in the killing fields.

1973 Chile - CIA overthrows Salvador Allende. They replace him with General Augusto Pinochet who will go on to torture and murder at least 3,200 of his own countrymen including children as young as 12. God knows how many more are “disappeared”.

1979 Afghanistan – The CIA begins supporting the mudžahedin fighters with money and weapons as soon as the Soviets invade. Some of these fighters go on to become members of Al-Qaeda including one Osama bin Laden. That’s right boys and girls – WE funded him and trained him ourselves!

1980 El Salvador – The Archbishop of San Salvador, Oscar Romero begs President Carter to stop aiding the military government who are busy slaughtering his people. Carter basically gives him the middle finger. Right wing leader Roberto D’Aubuisson proceeds to have Romero shot right through the heart while he’s in the middle of saying Mass. Classy. CIA trained death squads roam the country. By 1992 roughly 63,000 Salvadorans are dead.

2003 – present – Iraq and Afghanistan - because we NEVER learn. At least 753, 399 civilians dead since we decided to “liberate” the Iraqis – and by “Iraqis” we mean their oil – from Saddam.

Total # of deaths the US Government / military are directly or indirectly responsible for:

5,439,599 – 7,019,599 civilians dead.

No George W. Bush - the terrorists don't "hate us for our freedom" - they hate us for crap like this - stuff your dear old dad Poppy Bush was involved in up to HIS ears while he worked for the CIA.

Class Dismissed

This is horrifying! Stealing babies...ugh, it makes me sick! T_T

You need faith to be religious, but you don't need religion to have faith.

It just shows-you how corrupt governments can get, power corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely.

this is sad:(

I feel for those families that had there children stolen. My grandmother had a baby stolen. She heard it cry when it was born and ended up falling asleep because they over doped her up. When she woke up she was told her baby was dead and that is was born dead. However she was never givin a birth or death certificate or even a body to bury. So we all know that that child is out there somewhere with kiddnapers for parents. We all just hope and pray that it has had a good life otherwise and look foward to meeting him/her in heaven.

what a life of lies... definitely, power corrupts... even church. Is SO sad to watch this.

Just when you think things are really really evil along comes something else. Our world has gone to the dogs.

please research how many children go missing yearly in the USA. you will be shocked. also research how many children are stolen from parents by the government , via "family courts".

governments are just a tool of a much larger and sinister entity that exists all around us.

That has to be very disgusting. I can't even think of anything more to say.

Some Catholics stole kids in Spain, some Baptists stole kids in Haiti. Religion has historically been used by some as a cover to commit atrocities. That is why it is important to not trust in labels. Just because you are called a Christian doesn't make you good. Just because you are not called a Christian does not make you bad. I hope these scandals plaguing the Catholic Church do not detract from the many good things its members do around the world.

Rabados means they have a tail. Should read "ROBADOS!"

nah more like socialism. Government decide who is allowed to have children or who not. In china they make abortion shot if girl may get pregnant with second baby. She has nothing to say in it.

Not a very responsible reporting job. You can't just throw out that the Catholic Church may be involved and give no supporting evidence. Keep your eyes open people. You don't have to drag the Catholic church into it for ratings. Horrible atrosity, remember the story is about a dictator, focus on your story and getting your facts straight!

"niños rabados", isn't it "niños rObados", and "GeneraliSSImo"? it's spanish, not italian!

People are responsible for their own actions. There are a lot of evil people that hide behide a denomination and say they are doing the work of Christ. It is not just a Catholic issue. Examine the spirit. You will know them by their works. I am a Christian first and then I associate myself with a denomination. Christ is not the problem - man and our sinful nature are to blame. We have free will to do good or evil in this world.

you are missing the point here people.THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.they helped the nazis get out of germany after ww2 and molested GOD knows how many children and women overs the centuries.the church is corrupt and should held to the law.it is not in touch with GODS word or the teaching of JESUS CHRIST.

Some of the worst crimes in history have been done in the name of God, when it was man's will that was responsible, not God's will.

I was stationed in Spain and they told me to watch my children because they will come up missing. They told me American children were sold for alot of money. Always thought they were just trying to scare me..Now I go Wow!
