Cancer of appeasement on the Iberian peninsula, so it seems.

It's times like this when you see who your friends really are.  I'm glad we're finding out that we can't count on most euros so we can plan for it in the future.  Note to Portugal:  When you  come running to us because the islamo-fascists are getting close to achieving their goal of a muslim calphilate in Iberia, don't waste your breath.  Get bent.

Yhe AFP headline (french press agency) is pretty misleading. The IM said if the guard did not have what it required to carry out the mission it would follow that they should withdraw. that is fundementally different from the headline.

No offense to Portugal, but why don't they just paint a big bullseye on their foreheads?! Jeepers.

"If the conflict were to deteriorate and the GNR (national guard) did not have what it required to carry out its mission, the only solution would be to withdraw," he told Antena 1 public radio.

Alternative solution; give the GNR what it needs to carry out its mission.

Brilliant strategery.

By announcing they will withdraw, they have shown their weakness.

They blinked, and now muslims will be all over them...threats, kidnappings, bombings...the usual terrorist activities.

Before this, they probably didn't give a rats a$$ about Portugal.

Nice work.
