it's a horrible and cowardly act aimed at screwing up the spanish elections, matt. i said a prayer this morning when i heard hoping that jarico was nowhere near any of this. i remember hearing last week that a group had contacted the french government and demanded 5 million euros otherwise they'd set off bombs on french rail lines. so i was surprised to hear that the spanish trains had been hit. maybe there's more here than we have been told. regardless, i was a bit heartened to see that overwhelming response from european leaders attacking this heinous act of aggression. may their indignation lead to more than just words and instead to a situation where attacks such as these against innocent civilians are not tolerated.
you might disagree with me here, but it's always been my thought that when dealing with people from whom human life means little or nothing as is apparent here, that one must be merciless. i know two wrongs don't make a right, but if those responsible were to learn first hand that the retribution for such an act was more terrible than even the act itself and that any future acts would bring even worse consequences down upon those who sponsor and support such groups, it would eventually bring an end to such acts. i know, it's not a very christian attitude, but we're not dealing with christians here, i am loathe to even admit that we are dealing with humans.
