A HUGE VICTORY FOR TERRORISTS

This morning on CNN they were asking whether or not the socialist victory in Spain meant the terrorists were winning. Answer: Definitely. Up until the time of the terrorist (apparently Islamic) attack on those trains in Spain the government of Jose Maria Aznar was holding a dominating lead in the polls. Spain's new leader will be Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero. He is pledging to bring Spain's troops home from Iraq. He will also adopt a foreign policy that is decidedly less friendly to the United States than was Aznar. The new Spanish government will align itself with the European Axis of Weasels, Germany, France, Belgium and other appeasement-oriented countries.

There is no doubt that terrorists are going to consider this to be a victory. How could they not? It's a week before a Spanish election. A man who has been bold and eager in his support for President Bush's war against terror and the liberation of Iraq is enjoying a seeming insurmountable lead in the polls. Terrorists attack ... 200 people die ... 1500 are injured ... and the people go to the polls and vote against Anzar. Many voters said that the terrorist attack was payment for Anzar's support of the United States. So that support is going .. and Islamic terrorism wins.

Today, as a result of the Zapatero victory in Spain, the hand of Islamic terrorism is strengthened.

Clearly the terrorists prefer national leaders who will appease them rather than leaders who will try to locate them and kill them. This would mean that the terrorists would much rather see John sKerry win in the United States than President Bush. I know that's a tough pill to swallow for the Democrats ... but the fact is that in this presidential election they are clearly on the same side as the terrorists. Saying it ain't so won't work. You're just going to have to find a way to accept it and live with it

Now ... here's the more sobering question for you to consider. Do these Islamic terrorists think that the same tactic would work in the United States? Would a deadly terrorist attack in this country help them as it did in Spain? Would voters quickly turn against George Bush and put a man more friendly to them in office? Now I'm not saying that this is the way Americans would react. What I am saying is that this might be the way the Islamic terrorists think you would react. If they do, then the danger of another deadly terrorist attack on America has just become more serious.

I think one could find this same story repeated by many editorials over the next few weeks.
