Las bombas de racimo MAT-120, fabricadas por la compañía Instalaza en 2007, fueron usadas por las tropas de Gadafi para bombardear Misrata. Estos bancos y cajas fueron: Cajalón, Caja España, Caja del Mediterraneo, Bankinter, Ibercaja, Banco popular, Sabadell y la Caixa. Esto afirma el estudio que publicita la organizción SETEM. BBVA, Santander y Bankia y otros 11 invirtieron casi 2 billones de Euros en 19 empresas fabricantes de armas. Entre estas parece haber fabricantes de armas químicas, biológicas, bombas de racimo y minas antipersonas.Los mismos que le piden su nómina, que publicitan sonrisas y cuentas ahorro. No era suficiente con poner en riesgo el sistema financiero con bonos basura e inversiones disparatadas.
SETEM also reveals that 14 Spanish banks, among them BBVA, Santander and Bankia, invested almost 2 billion € in 19 major manufacturers of controversial arms that cause thousands of civilian deaths around the world. Among those highlighted are chemical and biological weapons, cluster bombs and anti-personnel mines.
SETEM has confirmed this morning in the presentation of their new campaign "Banca Limpia" (Clean Banking) that the cluster bombs MAT-120 manufactured by the Spanish company Instalaza in 2007 and used by Gaddafi to bomb Misrata in Libya, were financed by at least 8 Spanish banks: Cajalón (Grupo Caja Rural), Caja España, Caja Mediterráneo, Bankinter, Ibercaja, Banco Popular, Sabadell and La Caixa.
The confirmation of this news triggered the presentation in Spain of the report "Dirty Business: Spanish banks that finance controversial weapons" that confirms that from 2006 to the present, 14 Spanish banks have beenfinancially and economically involved in 19 of the leading manufacturers of controversial weapons that cause hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths worldwide.
