#3 "The consensus ... is a 'soft' power approach based on prevention â not like the United States has in mind, but (rather) with engagement with North African Muslim nations, economic development, assimilating and integrating immigrants into host nations,"

In other words, let the muslims in and pay them to take over Andalusia. This time the conquest won't be as quick, but it will be more complete. Better a western European country fall sooner than later so as to act as a example and warning to the rest.

#6 Spanish participants said last week that governments must address the causes of terrorism to defeat it ....

Root cause of terrorism = terrorists. I see only two governments that have made serious commitments to addressing the root cause of terrorism.

#10 --Terrorism experts and heads of state and government will tackle some of the core questions in the war on terror during a four-day conference beginning Tuesday and timed to coincide with the anniversary of the deadly train bombings in Madrid. --

How do we stop the Americans?
