All this hypocrisy in a mere 48 hours.

Have you noticed that suddenly they have forgot all interest in knowing the "truth" about the attack? Now they donīt care about the police investigations or anything.

Terrorists have achieved everything they wanted.
- They kill people they hate.
- They terorize the other people who are alive.
- They change a government who would pursue them, effectively gaining more freedom of action.
- And they demosntrate that terror works
Spain people have what they deserve. Iīm just sorry for the 9,5 million of Spanish who donīt deserve it.

I will truly cry when there is another terrorist attack in Madrid or some other part of Spain because this government proves its gross incompetence when in the face of terrorism.
I will now wave a US flag next to my name. I am too much in disgrace to fly the flag of my own country. The flag seen in my room has also been folded away.

You seriously believe Zapatero will stop the antiterrorist police and secret services to operate? You seriously think there will be no extra effort done to find and arrest the culprits of this attack? You seriously believe there won't be steps taken to avoid further attacks to happen?

I am sorry, but it is lovely for the Spaniards who support the right, besides getting rid of things that would identify them as being from Spain, moan about how their country has been sold out by their own people! Damn those stupid voters! Things were better under the Franco dictatorship, no doubt!
Give it a rest.
Aznar could not keep Spain safe- why should the voters give his party a go?

Sadly, he must think that, no?
But then of course, the opposition won, and they must be evil and not care about spain-otherwise, they would not be the opposition?

I don't belong to "they" then. If anything, I'll be damn glad if ETA's guilt is proven, as it would mean Al Qaeda's isn't that developed in Spain for now.

Get your head out of your arse. Aznar tried his best and the PSOE couldn't of done any better. To say he is responsible, is to show your true arrogance.

He did? Hmm, so many terrorist attacks that killed 200 people at one go happen in the 8 years prior to Aznar?
You say the attack could not be stopped? Then it does not matter which party won..see fez, you claims are inconsistent- becuase if there was ntohing that could be done to stop the attack, obviously Iraq was not the solution, and the voters , the vast supermayority of which were uneasy and unhappy with that whole mess, no longer had any reason, vis a vi security, to vote for the PP- after all, they could not keep Spain safe from AQ-LIKE YOU SAID.

It didn't happen that way. I don't know what I would be feeling.
The PP means = Stronger approach towards terrorism
The PSOE means = Weaker approach towards terrorism

Wow, finally a sensible post
Yes, terrorism is a threat extremely difficult to avert, and yes it is pretty stupid to say this attack was Aznar's fault, or the next attack will be Zapatero's fault (as I expect you and OliverFa to say when it'll happen).
This attack was the terrorists' fault. They are the culprits, they must be punished, and they must be rooted out. I think the main difference between Aznar and Zapatero in this regard is that I expect Zapatero to focus more on the prevention part, while Aznar would have focused more on the "boink some heads" part.

I didn't say anything like that. I said the PP took the fight to Al Qaeda. The PSOE is just going to box in the country which won't work.

I wish both sides would put politics aside and not screw over a whole country because dick-waivers on both sides of the Atlantic would rather seem 'right' than actually help out.

The PM is just reflecting the opinion of the Spanish people. Do you think that we the Spanish care about Irak? Do you think that we care about anything else that ourselves? The only thing that we want is that terrorists leave us in peace and go kill someone else. As long as we can keep life we donīt mind if we have to become arab fundamentalists or to betray our friends. We are the only important thing. The only reason we have voted him is because with him there will be no more bombs. Well... at least until USA are fully destroyed. But probably they will manage to destroy terrorists, so letīs let them put the dead people, not we.
(I say "we" because Iīm accepting the elections results )

Oh, yes, of course-cause involvement in Iarq did so much to keep Spain from those Iraqi WMD's, and degraded AQ;s ability to attack Spain..... wait, no, none of that is true...
Aznar and his government can claim that he did a good job in curbing ETA- hopefully the new gov. will keep the anti-terrorism policies against ETA while ebing more open to the demands of mainstream Basque parties.

Somehow I doubt that.
"is that I expect Zapatero to focus more on the prevention part, while Aznar would have focused more on the "boink some heads" part."
No. Aznar was the one who took a harder line on domestic terrorism in the country. Zapatero's positions were not even clearly defined before the election date.

No. Because it's well known that the American Democrats, the Spanish Socialists and the British Tories, err, I mean, Labour Party, are a front for international Islamo-Commie-Fascist terrorism.
Only the American Republicans and the Spanish Conservatives and the British Socialists, err, sorry, Conservatives, represent the pure unalloyed democratic will of the people. Thus it has been, is, and ever shall be, despite people like Reagan making deals with Iran and bankrolling terrorists.
Only liberals or commie symps do things like that.

With the open boarders in Europe and the vast variety in nationality, coupled with US military presence in Afghanistan and Iraq, then Europe is the natural place for AQ to grow. Sadly, I predict that this is the first of a series of terror acts that Europe will suffer. I certainly hope I am wrong.
While the guilt of ETA may be a good thing on the world stage, it would certainly be a devastating escalation for the Spanish people. AQ probably hit their best shot and will be done in Spain for some time...ETA could just be getting started. For the Spanish people's sake I hope it was AQ.

Well... for starting he is going to retire Spanish troops from Irak.
Later, he will continue aligning with France and Germany to criticize Mr. Bush for everything he does.
I hope Blair can make he change her mind, but I doubt.
He will stop fighting the root of terrorism, so terrorism is in better condition now. And coward Spanish will suffer the loss of liberty of increased security measures that sooner or later will fail again. Itīs impossible to protect everything. Supermarkets, football stadiums, buses, cinemas, schools...
Well... At least I will see it from UK, but this doesnīt mean that I wonīt feel sorry for those cowards.

Liberation issues again. If all the coalition partners pull out, Al Qaeda will see an opportunity to exploit the situation and we will have tons of terrorists everywhere.

The last thing I saw a religious preacher did was ask for $5 in a "generous pledge" to help his bank account in Zurich, erhm, some starving kids in Zimbabwe.

It's really sad when people so blinded by political ideology can't admit they are wrong. AZNAR COULD NOT KEEP SPAIN SAFE... that's why his government is gone.

The only reason we have voted him is because with him there will be no more bombs. Well... at least until USA are fully destroyed. But probably they will manage to destroy terrorists, so letīs let them put the dead people, not we.
(I say "we" because Iīm accepting the elections results )

Do you think the American people, or the British people care about Iraq? Do you think the populace of any state outside of Iraq gives three licks about Iraq? Every electorate that backed the war (oh so few) did it for purely selfish reasons (we are afraid!). Now we have one people for new selfish reasons saying , nah, lets leave. I think many Iraqis might appriciate the Spaniards for leaving...so hey, you guys are thinking about Iraq!

It's what your predicted and, apparently, wanted. You where basically routing for a change in the political atmosphere as soon as the attack happened.
