I still cannot get over how the Spaniards protested their government after the terrorist attacks in Madrid, claiming that because Spain "allied" with the US in the Iraq war, Spain became a target for al Qaeda. In the US, we did the opposite, yet, applying the principal of universality, one would (naively) assume that because of the wars we supported in the Middle East, the Americans would (therefore) protest the Bush administration for allowing al Qaeda to make the US a target for its retaliation. Oh, yeah, I already said this; I know, but it is still bugging me. It just shows how different those Europeans are from us, doesn't it?
