SPAIN SURRENDERS TO MUSLIM TERRORISTS

Thank you!

What makes us sick is the fact that the media pounds in "the loss of one of our most
important allies in the war against terror." Please, 1200 service men?

This drum-beat has hit an air-pocket though (at least for the alert news-consumer).

Only with the recent meeting of Dubya with the Prime Minister of The
Netherlands did I know that there are as many Dutch soldiers in Iraq
with the Coalition...as Spain has.

These are tough times...but we contiue to find out which countries are really solid friends
and which ones have a questionable national IQ.
(as in the Spaniards throwing out Aznar's PP party that cut unemployment IN HALF,
from 22% to 11% and has just blown away the economic growth projections for Spain.
Not only did the majority of Spaniards chose the way of the coward, they also
chose the path of the beggar.)

You are so right... read on....

Al-Qaida Barks, The Spanish Fly
March 17, 2004

AFTER A terrorist attack by al-Qaida that left hundreds of their fellow
countrymen dead, Spanish voters immediately voted to give the terrorists
what they want -- a Socialist government that opposes America's war on
terrorism. Al-Qaida has changed a government.

Until the bombings last week, the center-right Popular Party of outgoing
Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar had been sailing to victory. But then the
al-Qaida bombs went off and Spaniards turned out in droves to vote against
the government that had been a staunch Bush ally in the war on terrorism. (I
guess it's OK for a Spanish Socialist to "politicize" a terrorist attack
just to get elected.)

In a videotaped message, the al-Qaida "military commander" for Europe
claimed credit for the bombings, saying that the terrorist attack was meant
to punish Spain for supporting the war in Iraq. The message came as a total
shock to liberals who have been furiously insisting that Iraq had absolutely
nothing to do with al-Qaida.

Apparently al-Qaida didn't think so. After the Madrid bombings, it looks
like liberals and terrorists will have to powwow on whether there was an
Iraq/al-Qaida link. Two hundred dead Spaniards say there was.

The New York Times called the Spanish election "an exercise in healthy
democracy." And an ATM withdrawal with a gun to your head is a "routine
banking transaction." Instead of vowing to fight the people who killed their
fellow citizens, the Spanish decided to vote with al-Qaida on the war. A
murdering terrorist organization said, "Jump!" and an entire country
answered, "How high?"

One Spaniard who decided to switch his vote in reaction to the bombings told
the Times: "Maybe the Socialists will get our troops out of Iraq and
al-Qaida will forget about Spain so we will be less frightened." That's the
fighting spirit! If the violent Basque separatist group only killed more
people, Spain would surely give them what they want, too.

After his stunning upset victory, Socialist Party leader Jose Luis Rodriguez
Zapatero vowed to withdraw Spanish troops from Iraq if the United States
does not turn over Iraq to the United Nations. He also vowed that all of
Spain's remaining trains will run on time.

Zapatero said the war with Iraq had "only caused violence" and "there were
no reasons for it." One reason for the war, which would seem to be a
sufficient reason for a more manly country, is that the people who just
slaughtered 200 Spaniards didn't like it.

But, like the Democrats, the Spanish hate George Bush more than they hate
the terrorists. Zapatero said the war in Iraq was based on "lies" and called
on President Bush and Tony Blair to "do some reflection and self-criticism."
So don't think of the Spanish election as a setback for freedom -- think of
it as a preview of life under President John Kerry!

What kind of lunatic would blame Bush for 200 Spaniards killed by al-Qaida
bombs? Oh wait -- Howard Dean just did. Summarizing the views of Socialists
everywhere, Dean said: "The president was the one who dragged our troops to
Iraq, which apparently has been a factor in the death of 200 Spaniards over
the weekend."

Yes, with 1,700 dead or injured Spaniards, George Bush certainly has some
explaining to do. What have the terrorists ever done besides kill and maim
thousands of innocent civilians? Bush isn't fully funding "No Child Left
Behind," for God's sake!

Before he was put into office because he supported policies favored by
al-Qaida terrorists, appeasement candidate Zapatero said: "I want Kerry to
win." Kerry is also supported by North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il, who
broadcasts Kerry speeches over Radio Pyongyang with favorable commentary.

So now Kerry really does have two foreign leaders on record supporting him:
a Socialist terrorist-appeaser and a Marxist mass murderer who dresses like
Bea Arthur.

Zapatero predicted that his own victory would help the anti-war party "in
the duel between Bush and Kerry." Would you mind repeating that, sir? I was
distracted by that large white flag you're waving.

However Spain's election affects Americans, we can be sure that Spain's
surrender to terrorism hasn't been lost on the terrorists. It's difficult to
imagine the American people responding to a new terrorist attack by deciding
to placate the terrorists, as the Spanish did. A mollusk wouldn't react that
way to an attack. Only a liberal could be so perverse.

No matter how many of our European allies may surrender to the terrorists,
America will never be alone. This is a country founded in a covenant with
God by people who had to flee Europe to do it.

Sailing to the New World in 1630 on the ship Arabella, the Puritans' leader
and governor, John Winthrop, said Americans were entering into a covenant
with God to create a "city upon a hill." We would be judged by all the world
if we ever broke that covenant. But if we walked with God, "We shall find
that the God of Israel is among us, when 10 of us shall be able to resist a
thousand of our enemies." He has intervened in our affairs before, such as
in 1776, 1861 and 1980.

With the Spanish election, we are witnessing a capitulation to savagery that
makes full-scale war inevitable. The Democratic candidate wants to represent
godless Europeans. The Republican candidate wants to represent Americans. As
Winthrop said: "The eyes of all people are upon us."

from the fine article:

Just as with the doubting Gideon...the masses are being winnowed to find the
warriors who will carry the day.

(as in finding the warriors who would, instinctively, keep their hands on their
weapons while getting a drink of water from the river... for those who
are unfamiliar with the story)
