AQ won a skirmish only if you are willing to accept the notion that the Socialists won only because of the bombs No, c2. They wanted Aznar's party out, they got it out. The Socialists were expected to lose, and they won instead. The actual reasons for the vote don't matter. It's still an AQ triumph. We've got to abandon this crazy line of thinking that is being established which suggests that the French, the Germans, and now the Spanish are AQ "appeasers" because they didn't support us in Iraq. No, they're appeasers because they are still clinging to the notion that the terrorists are not their enemy, only the enemy of America & the Joooooooos. So they have chosen to get out of the fight, and sit back, and let America duke it out. You heard it all over in Spain, "This is Aznar's fault. This only happened because of Iraq. We should get out of Iraq, and then they'll let us alone." This is appeasement, and it's a form of stupidity with deadly consequences. Cooperation on the WOT is in their best interests. So it is. But are they willing to give any form of cooperation that will annoy AQ? Or will they only give info that can stay on the hush-hush?
