1. Did not Spain NOT want to help in this Iraq war ?
I saw it as the people did not want it but the rulers did and the polls were saying that before the election. It seems to pay for our govt to say the train thing made them pull out when the people did want out or never to go in in the first place. It has never seemed to me that Can wanted to get into this Iraq either. So just what do you mean?

With the chance of a probush right wing party or an anbush liberal party winning the election on June 28. Is there a chance of outsiders screwing around?

4. Spaniards Had Already Made Up Their Minds.
Prior to the bombings the polls were already indicating a close election. What put the Spanish people over the top was then-Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar lying to his people for the last time.
If you recall, Aznar lied about the perpetrators being the Basque separatists when the investigation pointed to Islamic radicals.
Aznar also supported the U.S. in Iraq, when the populace of Spain was approximately 90% against the war before it even began.

No Swede, Spain was not swayed, nor will the Canadians be.
