Britain significantly declared it to be "an assault on the very principle of European democracy".

Will the rest of Europe dismiss it as ``Spain's Problem.''

John Kerry says the threat of terrorism is overblown.

Will the rest of Europe dismiss it as ``Spain's Problem.''

More than likely they'll dismiss it as Bush's problem ("If Bush hadn't antagonized the Middle east by stealing Iraq's oil, this never would have happened!")

They'll also provbably imply, just like they did with us on 9/11, that Spain "had it coming."

Well, it figures. And I suspect they will dismiss it as Spain's problem. Spain staunchly stood by us, defying the European dismissal of 9-11 as somehow deserved. I'm waiting for the first loser to make that connection. And the UK was with us, at least Tony Blair and his supporters. I really doubt Europe gets it yet. What a sad day for Spain and the world. I've heard what Britain and Spain had to say, in denouncing this cowardly act of terrorism, but what of the rest of Europe, the EU? Prayer bump to the victims and survivors and their families.
