What will Spain do now?
 

Well now the Islamic extremists are threatining Spain with terrorist actions if they support the US and dont pull out of Iraq AND Afghanistan. They will turn Spain into an "inferno". This after a pledge from Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero to double troops in Afghanistan.

Wasn't it recently stated that Spain is off the Al Qaida hit list because they did the right thing during the election?

Let's see to what degree these scumbags are tolerated and what the new "big mouth" socialist leader of Spain will do. Should be interesting.

Hey Rick,
Don't have a reply for the post but did send you PM on an unrelated topic... your 380SL.. :-)

Seems like this idea was discussed in a recent thread. Spain bowing before terrorists at the election did not appease the terrorists, as intended, but rather demonstrated that Spain is willing to do what terrorists say to do. The same arguments apply for any dealings with Islamic Fundamentalists. Shall we elect a leader supported by Al Queda in an effort to please terror factions? Perhaps if we give them the West Bank, they'll be happy? Perhaps if we pull out of Iraq we can appease their anger? Perhaps if we ...

<shrug> Ultimately, it doesn't matter. Truth is not decided here at the Pelican Board.

How do you say "Neville Chamberlain" en Espanol?

Appeasement simply does not work. In fact, it embodens the extortionists.

Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero ?

Paco!!
Thanks for being such a good sport! Thanks to our friends in Spain for all the help in both Iraq and Afghanistan! We also mourn your losses. Although I think the election was mistake, it was an easy one to make...especially right after such a terrible terrorist attack (heck..we elected Clinton twice). I think we will all learn from this. Great you have caught most of the local terrorists after the railway bombing. Now lets get their masters and punish them too. We are with you buddy! Stay vigilant and safe!
