We Are All Spaniards

I wasn't talking about morals. I was talking about reality and history. If
the Arab nations who sponsor these terrorists succeed in their plans, their
own history books will write it off as the Great War for Islamic
Independence during which their freedom fighters performed attack after
attack until the Imperialist Oppressors were finally conquered.

If we sit back and wait for it to happen, we will be written off in history
as the once great, but now fallen American Imperialist Empire.

Perhaps the agenda of modern-day terrorists is not as clear as the
agenda of the Independence fighters who fought for independence and
control of their own countries...

Or, worse yet, perhaps the AGENDA is pretty clear, but the coutries
they are fighting for control of are not...

It has always struck me as the ultimate in obnoxiousness to claim that
fighting for democracy and the rule of law is somehow morally
equivalent to deliberately attacking non-combatants in an attempt to
impose totalitarian rule.

Where is Islam being opressed by a western nation?

In the eyes of Radical Islamists? Are you kidding?

Israel - it exists
UK - it gave the land to Israel
America - it supported Israel
Spain - it supported America

and the list goes on. Remember - the history books I am talking about were
(or will have been) written in the new Arabic Empire...

The Uk gave the land to Israel following a war with Jewish terrorists.
People like Golda Meyer, Begin were all terrorists(freedomfighters).

Again, you're confusing terrorists with rebels.

Rebels fight for territory. Terrorists kill indiscriminately.

(oops, sorry about the prevous incomplete post)

Terrorists don't kill indiscriminately. They employ a very effective tactic of
killing and maiming the enemy. WE say they kill innocents, because it sounds
good. But it is not true. Those who died (and those who survived) the attacks
were guilty, most of them, of not supporting Islamic ideals in the eyes of the
terrorists.

Now, being guilty of that is not (in my eyes) a bad thing. But when one says
"innocent" it is important to say "innocent of what?" and align the answer with
the goals and ideals of the terrorists. Otherwise we are just saying, in
different words, that it was our ox that was gored, and that doesn't really say
much.

The way to defeat terrorism is to have it not work any more. This means
accepting the death and destruction without changing our policy. It means not
being afraid. When you were younger and people taunted you didn't people tell
you "ignore them and they'll go away"? Or if you were on the other side, if
you found that your taunts were ineffective, did you eventually give up?

That's the only way to "win" the war against terrorism. It involves accepting
the losses they inflict, while not inflicting more losses on ourselves.

We do as much to "terrorize" ourselves as they do. I agree with Jose. We
constantly dwell on it, we are riveted to Fox News which exploits it for
ratings, we hold candlelight vigils for "victim's families", and politicians
yap about "keeping us safe" like they can do anything about it.

I simply refuse to be terrorized. If we all did that, we could just declare
the war over.

Agree 100%. We must stay the course, fight the good fight, and not flinch.

Unfortunately, the Spanish just showed that terror will influence elections,
policies, treaties, and troop deployments.

A very, very bad precedent. I fear the world will pay a terrible price for
Spain's actions.
