That is such an old and tired joke. Originally, it was used in the Cold Ware
days and attributed to the Soviet puppet leader en East Germany.
(The major difference is that your Spanish translation makes no sense at
all: "Almost every unit that can operate, jump or the swimming has already
left the [slang for] blood brother")

In a related story, the U.S. Olympic team is now demanding none of their

Do you realize it was a joke? You probably see those comedy sketches on TV
where people are talking in klingon, and comment "that's not really
klingon".

If anything remotely related to Star Trek appears on our tv, it gets turned
off immediately.
That said, if someone is going to go that far for a joke, it should hold
water.
