#1 Hear, hear! Because of the evil Bushitler, some 50 million people in Afghanistan and Iraq are no longer living under the boot heel of totalitarian thugs. That's gotta be some kind of internation crime, right? These are definitely the enlightened Euros we should be courting as 'allies'. I wonder how you say "I'm gobsmacked" in Spanish?

#2 If the Muslim posterior that Garzon is kissing so enthusiastically would just bend over another degree or two, he'd be able to see daylight.

#6 Judge Garzon is under a disciplanry investigation for his acts during the investigation of Madrid bombings.


It goes like that.

A high-ranking policemen produced a false analyis from explosives found. The theree experts who had done the rael analysis (BTW their conclusions didn't adjust to what the socilaist governemnt waants to heart) reported the falsification and Judge Garzon stepped in a filed (falsofication of official documents) where he has no authority and had the experts arrested in a highly irregular form (no lawyer assitance during the interrogatory, use of decalarations who had been done before they were told their rights).

The arbitrary arrest prolonged for weeks while Garzon used every trick legal and paralegal (going into a tour in South America) to keep the case in his handds and the experts in jail in face of the demands of the judge who had authority and should have been handling the case.

The experts were finally released (not by Garzon) and a three weeks ago the policve chief who falsifioed the documants has been formally accused of falsification and is awaiting trial.

I forgot: Judge Garzon has had a political carreer: number two in the socialist list for Madrid.

#9 So now they're saying "650,000 deaths"? Why not just all-out and declare we've depopulated Iraq?

#14 Go check out Publiuspundit.com for pictures of the MASSIVE rally the oposition party had in Madrid against the Socialists.

The reason the Socialists want to arrest the opposition is because they would win a free election if it were held today.

#15 Tellya what Spain. If you folks weren't a bunch of yellow f*cking cowards who tucked tail and ran when your trains were bombed, I'd have alot easier time listening when you talk. As it is, just shut the hell up and crawl back to your hiding place. Leave the real world to those with a spine. It's too dangerous for you.

#21 The right to declare and institute a war against an enemy of a nation is one of several sovereign rights. This turd in a punchbowl wants to strip the United States of one of its sovereign rights. That is an act of war. I suggest we show our disapproval of Spain's behavior by pulling all our military from Spain, and running an arclight strike down through the heart of Madrid - on a Saturday afternoon. Let's see what Spain thinks about the rights of sovereign nations THEN.

#22 Start easy, OP. First denounce the Vichy government of Spain as not legitimate and withdraw our ambassador.

Note that Garzon hasn't tried to extradite Castro or Mugabe. Wonder why that is...
