Al Qaeda thought we would fold after 9/11. This is due to the (non)reaction to all the previous terror attacks.

After this political victory, you can be assured they will try it again.

The Belmont Club talks about how this Spanish election demonstrates the extent to which European Socialists and Islamofacists are joined at the hip.

Once again, Neal is right on the money. The appeasers thought they were safe from Hitler, and you see where it got them. We will have to save europe's sorry asses once again. (Sorry for the language, but it best describes my feelings on this subject)

From "El Mundo": la "transfusión roja" del electorado de izquierdas hacia el PSOE " the "red transfussion of the leftist electorate towards the PSOE (socialist party). Those are the anti-war crowd: the socialist, the leftist, the "reds". Please, America, watch and learn! We do not want to make the same mistake in November.

BTW, the first "action" from the socialist president-to-be was to assure the world that the Spanish troops in Iraq will leave as soon as he is inaugurated. What a sad, sad day.

One of the tragedies emerging from the terror attack is that in a reaction to the terror attacks, the Spanish people turned to the SOCIALISTS! Socialism is like alcohol. Whatever problem you have, alcohol makes it worse!

Europe is in serious trouble. If they pulled the same thing in Britain I have serious doubts that their electorate wouldn't do the same. We may end up the only major dog in this fight at some point. I think American voters would react differently. We have a little bit of fight in us, according to our history.

One of our fellow posters predicted yesterday that in 20 years the EU will be an Islamicist satelite. Today I'm inclined to put the number at 10.

Did Turkey's backing down from a fight keep the terrorists off of them? Did Turkey refusing to support us keep the terrorists off of them? No, it just left Turkey without a friend.

Spain has done the same now.

The Madrid bombing definitely influenced the direction of the election in Spain.

Al-Qaeda will definitely try to do something (or many things) to influence the US elections in November.

The al-Qaeda warning that they were 90% ready for a major attack on the US should be taken seriously now.

Kerry seems to fit the al-Qaeda preferences very well. Clinton played the appeasement game for 8 years. The Clinton cut-and-run travesty in Somolia, early on the Clinton watch, just emboldened bin Laden and the direct result was the atrocities of 9-11.

Kerry, based on his voting record, previous speeches and positions, etc., would turn our security over to the UN and reinstall appeasement and placation as our foreign policy.

This has to be galling for Spanish men, who generally see themselves as heroic, "Toreador" types. Methinks they will now have to come up with some symbolic gesture (e.g. offering to send a few hundred troops to some other "war on terror" trouble spot) in order to salve their wounded egos.

chose to hold those who oppose terrorists responsible .....

Spain's Socialist Party prime minister-elect says he will pull troops out of Iraq - unless the UN takes charge.

"I'd like to see our troops dispersed
through the world only at the directive of the United Nations."

"The first thing I will do when I am elected is to go to the United States and support John Kerry"

The real victors in yesterday's Spanish elections are the terrorists responsible for last week's murderous attacks on Madrid's rail system. A likely withdrawal of Spanish troops from Iraq can only embolden Al-Qaida and its ilk to conduct further attacks against the United States and our allies in Iraq.

Imagine what a Kerry victory in November would do to the now-uplifted morale of these terrorists.
