We are all Spaniards today.

As a percentage of Spanish population, the horrendous terrorist attack on
Madrid has now actually injured and killed more people than the World
Trade
Center attacks did to America in 2001.

Terrorism must be stopped, whatever the cost. Whether it was Basque
separatists or Muslim extremists is irrelevant -- the animals who take
pleasure in this kind of carnage must be hunted down and killed.

I have searched in vain to determine how many airplane pilots are in
Spain,
but I'm sure there must be at least one of you lurking on this newsgroup
today. Rest assured that all Americans stand with you, that we will
remember our allies, and that we will help you find the swine who
perpetrated this atrocity.

Jay,

Noble sentiments to be sure,

However, the Spanish people themselves don't seem to want to "be Spaniards"
as they promptly gave the "bum's rush" to the ruling party that has been
perceived as getting them attacked in the first place.

I think the attackers got exactly what they were aiming for in Spain and
IMO, if John Kerry gets elected President, they will have acheived a similar
gain in the US.

My $0.02 worth,
