The Maginot Line of the PSOE

Summary by Málaga Hoy
The Maginot line was the great defensive bet of France after the First World War: fortifications, tunnels and concrete on the German border, baptized by André Maginot. It seemed impregnable. But in 1940 Hitler did not attack her head-on: he surrounded her by Belgium and the Ardennes. Since then, the expression defines a clever defense that reassures his own and fails when reality enters the flank.
