When Spanish voters ousted the ruling Conservative Popular Party from power in the wake of an apparent Islamic bomb attack against riders on Spanish trains, this was interpreted by many as a bid to forestall further terror attacks. Voters were presumably agreeing to terrorist demands that they defeat a party that supported the US effort to overthrow Saddam Hussein and free the Iraqi people from his reign of terror.

However, voters ignored Islam's 600—year old grievance against the Spanish people for expelling the Moors and frustrating Islamic rule in their toehold on Europe.

Today, another bomb was found on a  Spanish train. How will the Spanish people respond now? Will they now let all Islamists who want to colonize Spain come back?

Alternatively, will "education by murder" take hold in Spain? This war, and that is what it is, has nothing to do with Iraq or Israel. It has to do with the survival of Western Civilization, whose success stands as a mortal threat to extreme Islam.
