  • A documentary by Silvia Luzi & Luca Bellino - 26'/2015
    Gibraltar is the gateway between Europe and Africa, a small and mountainous peninsula which overlooks the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea in southern Spain. For more than three centuries Gibraltar has been a vital United Kingdom strategic outpost. It is a country of 6.5 square kms with a population of about 28.000 inhabitants, mainly Spanish, Italian, English, Maltese, and Portuguese. It is well known as 'The Rock'.
    Military control of the Strait of Gibraltar has historically been the most important use of Gibraltar, allowing Britain to defend its trade lanes to the East. The British and Gibraltarian governments assert that Gibraltar has been effectively decolonized. On the other hand, the UN Special Committee on Decolonization maintains Gibraltar on its list of Non-Self-Governing Territories. Spain opposes any attempt to remove it from this list and Spanish commentators still describe Gibraltar as a 'colony'.
    The documentary is part of the 'WE ARE REBELS' series.

    Gibraltar governs itself, so its description as a "colony", no matter who uses it, including that wonderful organisation, the UN, is quite ridiculous.
    How would a referendum on "what Gibraltar wants to be" work? There would be many different answers to such a question but a referendum can only address a choice between two clearly defined outcomes.
    In the final analysis, the Gibraltarian people's right to self determination trumps all other arguments.
    A very good documentary, though. Thank you for bringing it to us.

      Well, an Anglo-Dutch army seized it from Spain on behalf of Archduke Charles, a contender in the Spanish War of Succession, and the Brits kept if thereafter.
