Yes, a combined forces attack. Has the Socialist government surrendered yet, and is Osama moving to Toledo or Madrid?
That would be ET AL QUEDA.....
Good thing they elected that wimpy socialist government.
Can you please put your dad on the line? My dad was the king of sheba and all my pure vanity posts get treated as such.

A prime example of how appeasement doesn't work.
Good thing they caved to the terrorists! </sarc >
These reports are obviously inaccurate because Spain is now at peace with everyone.
10:01 PST MADRID, Spain (AP) -- At least one explosive device detonated in Madrid on Friday after a telephone warning from the armed Basque separatist group ETA, reports said.
One device exploded at a gas station near a highway packed with people leaving the city for a long holiday weekend, the news agency Efe said, quoting the manager of the station.
Another agency, Europa Press, said there were two small, separate blasts that caused no injuries. It quoted Interior Ministry officials who did not specify where the blasts took place.
Earlier Friday, the Basque newspaper Gara said it received a call from a person speaking on behalf of ETA who said five explosive devices had been placed at gas stations along major highways leading out of Madrid.

GOOD!
I don't mean to be a heartless pric*, but it's healthy for the rest of the world to see the ROI you get with a PEACE at any cost policy!
This has to be a hoax. Spain, in an agreement with terrorists to not attack Spain again pulled out of Iraq.
This is why you don't put all your Basques in one exit.
(yes, all of the above is just a joke.)
St. James the Greater (Santiago Matamoros) (pray for us!)
Dang. You got zotted. I was just starting to triangulate on you postion and poof. Up in Zot!
We got fresh dead!
It can't be Al Qaeda, since Zappy's pulling out of Iraq was supposed to have appeased them re: Spain.
