:stupid --Spain just handed Al Queda thier first real victory in this war. If this happens in London, Blair's gonna be in trouble and we could see them fold too.......Fog

To me, there is little doubt this was the trial run... and Spain did absolutely the worst thing they could do in response.

Now, I can, unfortunately, predict with some ease that because of the outcome in Spain, every coalition country facing elections, including the United States, will see similar attacks timed to get precisely the same outcome.

What the Spaniards SHOULD have done was to double their commitment of troops, effective immediately, while warning the AQ's that further attacks would result in an even greater commitment.

No wonder they could never defeat the English.

****ing socialists.

Agreed.

In the next world war the loosers get France and Spain.

Ok... so the Socalist won?

A few news article clips.....

MADRID (Reuters) - After massive outpourings of grief and anger on Spain's streets the previous two nights, the country's emotions took a new turn on Sunday as Socialist supporters rejoiced at their stunning electoral upset.

(Socalism works..... ask any Frenchman. :histerica )

---

Voters apparently punished the ruling center-right Popular Party (PP) over the government's handling of the bombings. The government insisted armed Basque separatist group ETA was the prime suspect even as mounting evidence pointed to al Qaeda.

(What? They don't have newspapers in Spain? :wacko )

---

An estimated 11 million people had swarmed onto Spain's streets on Friday in a show of solidarity against terrorism, and on Saturday protests turned violent outside the offices of the ruling Popular Party.

(Such good lil pacifist that they are...... :shrug )

---

"Soldiers come home," they said, a reference to Zapatero's pledge to bring back Spain's 1,300 troops in Iraq unless there is a greater United Nations mandate.

(The ultimate form of European support..... "RUN AWAY! :bs )

______________

In a subsequent article.......

---

Poland vowed to keep its 2,400 troops in Iraq. Warsaw commands a 9,000-strong division of troops from 24 nations, including 1,300 Spanish soldiers, in a central-south zone.

"Revising our positions on Iraq after terrorist attacks would be to admit that terrorists are stronger and that they are right," Prime Minister Leszek Miller said. (Go Poland! :beer )

Poland's ambassador to NATO said Warsaw was ready to retain its command of a stabilization force beyond July 1, when Spain was to have taken over.

(Spain would have taken over on July 1? :shocked Imagine now how that would have worked out... maybe Spain tucking their nubby lil tails between their legs and running like cowardly dogs is actually a good thing for the troops of the countries committed to wipe out terrorism.)

----

The Dutch government said it would not be cowed into withdrawing its 1,100 troops from Iraq and that the attacks should not affect deliberations on extending their mandate.

"We cannot leave a country like Iraq on its own," Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende said on Dutch television. "Because of terror you can't just say: now we say no to them."

(Hooray for the lil guys! :thumbup )

Lessee... How's that saying go....

"Kill em all... Let _INSERT YOUR PARTICULAR DIETY HERE_ sort them out"

God Bless the US Armed Forces and the troops from all the other countries that have refused to bow to cowardly actions of the al Queda and any other low life scum that insists on murdering innocents. :thumbup

:usa

Ok.... stepping down off the soap box now.

amen brotha

I was reported on CNN today, that Spain was going to withdraw there entire Army. It was estimated that a Trailways bus was all that was needed.

So much for help anyway.

fawkin cocksuckers. one victory is all the terrorists need to fuel their fire. why can't they see that?

I think this is very odd, 2 days before the attack, the socialist were getting wiped and had no shot, but when the attack happened, the socialist won like 2 days later, I wonder if the socialist governemnt had something to do with al-qaeda, etc... This may seem weird, or im being an a-hole, but it just dosent add up. Spain people have no backbone and there scraed to fight terriosim, its to bad, the only way we can contain or stop terrioism is war not "peace" (not doing anything)

I think it could happen here to get Kerry President because he has no national defense, or it could happen if Kerry was to somehow win, then the terrioist would attack knowing Kerry wont go after them, Im scared shitless if Kerry is to become Presidnet in a time of terrioism :brownbag

long live fascism

Im scared shitless if Kerry is to become Presidnet in a time of terrioism :brownbag

I may not agree w/ Bush 100% of the time, but I agree that Kerry is frightning in these times. 8 years ago he would have made a great Clinton replacement but these days I don't think he's the man for the job-----Fog

They lose a couple hundred lives and they back out. We lose thousands an we are still in the game.

Yeah, but think of the population difference.

Real victory? By who's standards? Anytime those cowards strike, it's checked as a victory in their book, weather the person being attacked acknowledges or not.

To me, there is little doubt this was the trial run... and Spain did absolutely the worst thing they could do in response.

You couldn't be more correct. It's sad and scary.

It was reported on CNN today, that Spain was going to withdraw there entire Army. It was estimated that a Trailways bus was all that was needed.

Hahaha! It's too bad. I think maybe they were just jumping on the band wagon in the first place.

one victory is all the terrorists need to fuel their fire. why can't they see that?

Yes it does fuel the fire, but the real issue is that as long as there are any of those cocksuckers standing, there will be war. They aren't going to back down. They feel that strongly about their beliefs, and will fight until every last one of them are dead. Sad, but true.


I'm not supporting Spain's desicion at all. I'm just trying to clear up some possible confusion.

The sky is falling!!

I agree with you, but this was probably their biggest victory. Spain has basiclly "surrendered" to them. By withdrawling thier troops and support they have in effect said "do what you want, where you want just leave US alone". With this kind of success they will plan more attacks to coinicide with elections in other countries to test their will to see things thru.......I just think it bad policy to give in to these thugs. Fog

Al Queda isn't going to care that Spain is withdrawing their troops. They are still 'infidels' in the eyes of the radical muslems.

Yeah, but think of the population difference.

True. So that means when they pull their troop (not troops) out, no one will be able to tell.

I still they are a bunch of pussies not matter what the population difference is. They just need to bone more to make more. :toothless

They are setting the stage to other countries, al-qeada will bomb your countries, and will assume you will pull your troops, if usa gets bomben I hope and think Bush will clear up the middle east REAL quick

Ok , here we go . Not defending Spain , but what is the difference between what they are doing and what the United States did in 1974 . We bailed out of Viet Nam because Nixon made a promise that if he was elected he would pull our troops out . And he did . We left thousands of our allies ( the South Vietnamese ) to be slaughtered . Hell we were physically kicking them off our helicopters as they were taking off from roof tops . It's all political , then and now . Do what you promise as a politician and get re-elected . **** the consequences . And it will never change . :banghead

i still think fascism is a viable option for america.

What Spain did was the worst thing they could do. Really I think this has nothing to do with the war in Iraq. Why would al-quida care? Dont you think they would be more pissed when we rolled into Afghanastan? I think there just trying to make us lose all of our allies plain and simple.

The difference is that we weren't bullied out, we left because Nixon wanted to. Spain on the other hand feels threatened*, so they have decided to quit. Is that a cover for something else? Maybe, but prolly not. Spain is a small country any more, and coming to or leaving the war really only makes a difference to Spain. Allthough, it does impact future events. No predictions nessecary, because I'm sure everyone can see where it will go.
