B. Preston at the JunkYardBlog has some news of the recent happenings between the recently elected Socialist leaders of Spain and the ETA separatists.
He starts out very simply with something those of us on the right side of the blogosphere know all to well,
Put a Socialist in power, screw up your country.
Basque separatist terrorists ETA have waged a bloody war against Spanish rule for decades. Zapatero, who took power after Spanish citizens were cowed into replacing a more conservative government by the Madrid bombings last year, came into office promising them the moon in exchange for their support. They’re holding them to his promises, demanding more, and withholding support. That’s what terrorists do. Because of all this, Zapatero is basically screwed.
If you�ve ever wanted to tour Spain, now might be a good time.
