Is That All It Takes?

So, if the U.S. would just admit it was actually Socialist, and vowed to pull its troops from Iraq unless the UN was in charge, would Al-Qaeda leave us alone?

“Al-Qaeda group calls truce in Spain: report." From the article.

"Because of this decision, the leadership has decided to stop all operations within the Spanish territories… until we know the intentions of the new government that has promised to withdraw Spanish troops from Iraq,” the statement said."

John Kerry is probably licking his lips and scheming over how to use this type of claptrap for his advantage.

Via Andrew Sullivan.

Update: Thomas Friedman thinks this is a fantasy.

"The notion that Spain can separate itself from Al Qaeda’s onslaught on Western civilization by pulling its troops from Iraq is a fantasy."

  1. Here’s what I observed from the situation in Spain:

    (a little) Anarchy + Democracy = Socialism

    Which is exactly what always happens when you introduce some Anarchy into the system.
