Ths soldiers of Spain are not cowards, but unfortunately their current politicians are as well as the supporters of these same politicians.
Fear not. The Spanish will be back in the battle before long, and this time for real. Al Qaeda is not going to be mollified by this act of cowardice and retreat by the Socialists. They will only be emboldened and push too hard.
At some point what is going on will become intolerable to the majority of Spaniards, and the battle will be resumed. This is a fight to the finish and the boil of terrorism in Spain will only continue to suppurate. It will have to be addressed sooner or later before final victory or defeat in Spain.

I'm guessing if we Firebomb all of the Spanish cities and assassinate their Prime Minister, maybe they'll try to appease US and join us in the war on terror again.

"The soldiers of Spain are not cowards,"
I totally agree. We shouldn't pin than name to them due to the action of a new leader who happens to be a total moron!

[The] soldiers of Spain are not cowards... You are certainly correct, and I think that you make an important distinction.
After Vietnam, the socialist Left (including a man who now wants to be POTS) did everything they could to vilify good soldiers who did their jobs honorably. Let's not make that same, inexcusable mistake with the brave soldiers of Spain.
Guys, thanks for the help you've given us. Bravo.
