Appeasement Doesn't Help Spain

From My Way News:
Police found a bomb Friday under the tracks of Spain's bullet train line between Madrid and Seville, the interior minister said, less than a month after a deadly commuter rail attack that killed 191 people.

Bomb-disposal experts alerted by a railway employee found 22-24 pounds of explosives about 40 miles south of Madrid, Interior Minister Angel Acebes said.

The explosives were connected to a detonator with a 450-foot cable, the minister told a news conference.

Acebes said it was not clear who was behind the bombing. The national news agency Efe quoted police sources as saying preliminary analysis suggested the explosives might be a Spanish brand called Goma 2 Eco, the same used in the March 11 terrorist bombings in Madrid.

Matt's Chat

Pulling out of Iraq didn't help Spain from getting off the target list afterall, eh.

Mark's Remarks


Maybe Spain did not pay attention to the 1930s...oh wait, Franco was in power and they were allies with Hitler, so maybe they did not get the lesson....When you appease, you lose...because the enemy will think you are weak and will continue to attack and take, even as you continue to capitulate....It did not work for Neville Chamberlain and Europe in the 1930s and it is not going to work against the new Nazisim of IslamoFascism in the 2000s. How many more massacres will it take for you to realize this, Spain and Europe? How many more world wars, eh? You can't be weak and wait for the US to come and save you....we are fighting for our own lives right now, and shouldn't you have learned to take some responsibility for yourselves? I mean, England has learned that, even Poland....but of course Poland would, because unlike Spain and France, they did not ally or capitulate with Hitler, they were run over because of your appeasement, so they know....Get the message, before terror strikes again.
