Fez's "article" is from the American Forces Press Service. Hardly an unbaised source.

a) You mean "didn't happen that way", right?
b) He didn't provide a link.
c) Even that article doesn't say that the crowd was armed, but that the gunmen were hiding inside the crowd. If that would mean that it's ok to open fire on the crowd because of that, casualties in some other conflict not too far away would be in the tens of the thousands.

In some sense, we're...... Although I'm going to be bashed by other spaniards for saying so, I've always wondered why can't be more friends if we both have been suferring terrorism since many years ago.

Oh, no, hardly so, my dear boy. If we'd be talking about Israel, you'd see not only UN resolutions, Kofi Annan's talking head on TV, and/or an american press peon, but probably major international pressure, some economic pressure, etc. It's obviously quite clear that I am not saying that Spain is the same as Israel.

I guess French newspaper Le Monde was wrong when their 9-11 headline ran "We're all Americans now". It should have read "We are all Israelis now".

I wonder how the fact that more terror attacks in Madrid were planned, despite the new PM's pledge to get out of Iraq, would affect the public opinion.

We had to shoot them. They had AK-47s. I don't know if you think having AK-47s is being unarmed, but the Spanish troops opened up after being fired upon. Azazel, you idiot... how can you fly an Israeli flag when you accuse Spanish troops of defending themselves, when Israeli soldiers do the same thing? It is self-defense. If you had a G-36 in one hand and you saw a guy firing an AK-47 at you.. what would you do? Sit there to take a bullet? No.. I would fire my G-36 at every enemy that has an AK-47. You can't even prove your B.S claims anyways. The Spanish troops are marked with a high level of professionalism. If you don't look at the facts here they are, the Spanish troops in Iraq have served in several different missions before including in the Balkans. Our troops know how to deal with the situation when it arises. Your claims are baseless and arrogant.

A border with which the other side, from which you occupied the territories, and built colonies on, doesn't agree. The fact that the colonies are there for a long time, doesn't matter. Here we have colonies that are more than a generation old, too.

There is no comparison with the BS Israel pulls!

You're talking out of your apologist arse as usual Az - what's up, now that Siro doesn't post as often you think you have to fill his shoes...?

Spain would have to be occupying about 70% of Morocco, with settlements riddling the entire country like a dose of the clap and its 'wall' wouldn't actually be on the actual border but tens of miles into Moroccan territory after massive destruction of property...

And that is just scratching the surface!

Your country gets off scott free with murder and 'lebensraum' on a daily basis under the aegis of the US - your country is a nasty evil bully of a nation that lashes out under the slightest excuse!

First time I see Azazel randomly trolling, and the scary part is that he made Fez look reasonable!

The Spanish, American and Salvadorean troops came under fire and fired back-2 of them were killed and twentysomething injured.

Since when colonization is the only pretext for violence? (ignoring for second the issue of Ceuta&Melilla)

You are brutally occupying an independent country, are allied with the American war criminals, deny the populace their freedom of speech and now fire into crowds of civilians. You WILL get attacked, more and more and more.

Islamic terrorism doesnt strike because of reasons that seem logical to you. The terrorists do not seek the life that you seek and they dont have the goals that you have.
You are infidels. Infidels who occupy the land that was once part of the Dar al-Islam, and now attack a Muslim nation. That is all that matters.

Okay, so how do you suggest sealing off every mile of the border?

Eli:

"You are brutally occupying an independent country, are allied with the American war criminals, deny the populace their freedom of speech and now fire into crowds of civilians. You WILL get attacked, more and more and more."

American war criminals? You are lying hypocrite. Brutally occupying an independent country? Since when was Iraq ever independent under Saddam Hussein? Were the Iraqi people ever independent in making decisions for themselves? Freedom of speech? What kind of freedom of speech are you talking about you nescient little ****? The freedom to fire an AK-47 at soldiers? What kind of freedom of speech is that? You are nothing but pathetic. I mean go pick up a different line of trolling because you suck at this.

(Honestly, are you actually being serious about that crap you typed, eli?)
