An attack on democracy. March 11, 2004 has now been declared Spains 'September 11'. This day will now go down in history as the biggest and most devastating terrorist attack in Spain.Spain's capital is now considered a killing ground. Oh makes me want to wake up again in the morning. What is going to happen tomorrow? How about next week? Bomb after bomb ripped through the rush hour trains. Bodies hung from rooftops of nearby buildings, body bags and make shift memorials were all over the streets. What is going on? First the separatist group called the ETA was blamed. They then came out and said no, it was too complex of a terrorist attack for them. Glad to know they would downgrade to maybe a bus, not a train. They said in a news release they would at least give a warning. Thanks guys. How kind. Next, the al Qaeda claims blame. A stolen van found, an Arabic tape inside. A letter was sent, responsibility was claimed. Thanks guys. The twin towers weren't enough for you? Next what? What is the next bright idea? 200 people dead. Thousands injured. Many more scared for their lives. In a country with only days to an election, timing symbolized an attack on democracy. Nothing can justify such barbarity. This is a battle that shows no sign of end. But oh so glad President Bush was right in there making sure the world knew of his condemnation of terrorism. Last time I checked, half the world calls HIM a terrorist too.
