If one studies the annals of history they would find that the United States and the Kingdom of Spain have had their fair share of differences in the past, yet if one is looking with a unbiased eye they would see that we have also nurtured a sense of mutual understanding since the founding of the American Republic. In these troubled time many nations have created a number of false pretenses in order to align themselves with an assortment of villainous rebels against the United States; this frankly quite petty. While, the United States has indeed commented transgressions of varying degrees against the Spanish people in the past, this alone does not justify fostering a state of insurrection; in fact it would go against the core teachings of the scripture if one's past sins could not be forgiven. Let it be known across the globe that Spain stands by the President Lincoln in his fight against those that would defy the word of God and terrorize a sovereign state; all those that prescribe to the true faith should abide by the words transcribed in 1 Samuel 15:23,"rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry." I therefore decree that Spain will not recognize this so-called "Confederate States of America" as a sovereign entity and move that any vessel found flying a "Confederate" flag is hereby banned from our ports.
