Reply #5: The Spanish people think just fine [View All]

[Briar]

They weren't deceived into thinking the war on terror and the war on Saddam Hussein were connected. Only right wingers push that line, and slander the Spaniards for kicking out a right wing government which lied to them to try to justify a pre-emptive, illegal war. Unlike the US and UK, Spain did not believe the lies. 90 per cent opposed the war. The election was a triumph for democracy, so of course right wingers and war mongers want to present it as appeasement. They're afraid the British and American people will wake up and do the same. We can only hope so.
