What is relevant is what the terrorists perceive. They have now seen that
"Bomb+Massive Casualties=Troops out of the Middle East."

No matter how you cut it, there is nothing good here. We are all much more
vulnerable, thanks to the Spanish.


The first part is certainly true, but I'm not sure the last bit is.
Given that attacking the U.S. resulted in two shooting wars, plus
manifold other actions against terrorism, I don't think that the U.S.
is the next logical target. Surely Italy is. Or, if the message is
"all crusaders bad", then France.

Well we do have an election in November and with their success in Spain I
would very surprised if we don't have a major terrorism attempt in the US in
October.

Well, maybe not (the result, anyway). It's said, and rightfully so I
believe, that the only reason LBJ was elected, in 1964, was to refuse
justification for the JFK assassination.

At the time of his death JFK was looking at losing re-election; his
"satisfaction rating" was down around 30%. I wonder if that was a motivator
for LBJ?

The Democrats will be praying very hard against that possibility!
