Spain is just two days away from elections. That country's brave and principled prime minister, Jose Maria Aznar, is not his party's candidate. Nonetheless, his decision to stand by America's side in the War on Terror may have played a role in yesterday's bombing.
The next time somebody refers to the war in Iraq as an act of American unilateralism, I hope somebody shoves a photo of a dead body in the Madrid train station under his nose and demands he apologize to the Spanish dead and wounded.
This means you, John Kerry.
....So many people have forgotten this that it's probably wise to remind them: The only people who are to blame for committing terrorist acts are terrorists.

 President Bush Condems Terrorist Attack in Madrid, 3/11/04 Today I spoke to His Majesty the King of Spain -- Jose Maria Aznar, as well -- about our country's deepest sympathies toward those who lost their life as a result of terrorist bombings in Spain. I told him we weep with the families. We stand strongly with the people of Spain. I appreciate so very much the Spanish government's fight against terror, their resolute stand against terrorist organizations like the ETA. The United States stands with them. Today we ask God's blessings on those who suffer in the great country of Spain.
