I do not agree with some of the stuff that you usually post Fish, but this summary of the situation is pretty good. Whatever one might think about the war against Iraq, to remove the spanish troops now after the madrid bombings is the worst thing the new socialist governement could possibly do. They give in to those motherfuckers, and removing the troops now will further destabilize the situation in Iraq.

Actually when dealing with those islamic fanatics/terrorists appeasement politics will spell disaster. Why? Because those motherfuckers will only use the easy going of countrys like Germany (yeah my homecountry) to gain more ground. Their final goal is absolutely clear because they talk about it all the time: kill all infidels, worldwide. So when dealing with those assholes it´s us or them, nothing else. I´d say that doesn´t leave much room for appeasement.


And dude, I don´t think it was a matter of letting the defense fall down in Spain. It can happen anywhere, anytime. But I still agree that the terrorists need to be hunted down, rather then hoping they will not attack.

Not in paritcular spain. But europe in general is much more apt to appease aggressors because they really couldn't prosecute this war even if they wanted to. Their thougt process is that you shouldn't disturb the bear because it might eat you. So they are appeasing the terrorists.
