Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar, a staunch ally of the United States in Iraq, told Congress yesterday that Spain has no desire to turn Europe into a counterweight to American economic and military power.

"The Atlantic relationship strengthens Europeans and Americans alike," Mr. Aznar said at a joint session of Congress.

Yeah it looks like those Baathist dumbasses are finding out something that I've known for many years as my mom's family is from Spain : DON'T EVER PISS OFF A SPANIARD.

As an American of Hispanic extraction, I can say that we have looooong memories. Spaniards once lived under the tender boot of Islamofascism. If we are to fight the Reconquista again, I daresay that the Spanish prefer that it be fought on enemy soil...
