Healing or justice?
The New York Times headline on the opening of the Madrid Terror Trial is almost comic: "Hopes for Healing as Spain's Terror Triral Begins"
Even by Times standards, this is a delusional take on the trial of suspects in The Madrid train bombing that just started.
A trial is a healing process... meant to what? Bring together Islamists and victims in some sort of judicial therapy session that will bring about reconciliation and peace?
Hopes for healing? -how about hopes for justice?
