Raymond > I was aware that the Washington Post had a serious pro-Israel bias, but I wasn't clear on how it is all in the family.

Very interesting story, thanks. Incredible how it all ties up but I suppose that's what happens at the "top". And it's also incredible how dangerous too much money and power are to the well-being of any human being. I imagine that's what finished off her husband.

Actually, although her father was Jewish, she wasn't and, in fact, was brought up as a Lutheran. So it's surprising that this article calls her a Jewish socialite. I see she was also a pillar of the liberal establishment. Certainly a very interesting and powerful person and a very accomplished woman.

>>>The events of March 11 suddenly opened the eyes of the Spanish people to the fact that the 'war on terrorism' was not what it had seemed to be, and the only real war was by the American neocons against all the peoples of the world, including the Spanish people. Aznar's lies, and his obvious disinclination to do anything that would protect the average person from the effects of terrorism, made clear that the whole 'war on terrorism' was itself a massive lie.<<<
