nacmat I think you need to have open dialog with these groups otherwise you have no chance of changing anything in the future. The situation with the IRA in Northern Ireland only got better when talks opened properly between all sides.

ya...
ERC, la verdad, no son muy radicales... no mucho mas que el PNV... solo que con ideas un poco mas de izquierdas... no buscan romper con españa, sino mas bien respeto por las diferencias culturales... quiza si que hubo un poco de radicalizacion del discurso... pero fue como autodefensa ante la agresividad de la polÃtica del PP...
que Carod hablara con eta fue mas una chuleada suya que cosa del partido, y es que se le estan subiendo los humos... pero a mi me parece bien... apostar por el diálogo pacifico... ... aunque quiza no era el momento...
anyway, ahora empieza un panorama nuevo y soy optimista... zapatero me cae bien y esperemos qu ese inicie una etapa nueva y no volvamos a los tiempos del PSOE post-transicion...

yep, I'm sure that's an accurate description of Marx, the American Left, Spanish people, the Prime Minister of Spain, etc. --
Actually, its probably more an accurate description of you. That is, without the 'want peace' part.

xanatos you know whats your problem.
your too busy sucking nacmats dick and every other socialist left extremist in this thread to realize whats really going on in the world. lets take ego out of the equation for a second. no where in this country has socialism every aspired to anything but a self profiting gov't which takes no concern about others well being. that be the case not only has spain lost a functioning economy, they're in no position to get any assistance from the US unless they appoint another candidate and for that alone to take place hmm its not easy to say the least. so please stop being saying things are better now. it hasn't even been a week since the bombing. i suppose spains past history as a socialist party plays no part in logic.
to make it plain and simple for you to understand
people voted out of fear for the wrong reasons. they will regret it. the people who died in that train deserve better.

Ra! ra! go! constructive critisism! go!
I think when we get to the point where we're calling each other wank-stains and bot-floggers back and forth it's time to take a breather.
Shame since there's some worthy opinions in here, from what I read. Didn't read it all cos, frankly, political debate bores the tits off me, but I thought that starting out by calling the Spanish people spineless was a bit tactless.

Yeah, you're right, socialism doesn't work... but you know what does?
Stopping terrorism through aggressive war and occupation! Remember how Israel stopped terror by occupying the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 1967? Or how we stopped Al Qaeda from (repeatedly) hitting Turkey and Spain by outsting the Saddam Hussein regime from power last year. I don't know why the Spaniards just won't get that through their cocksucking communist skulls? I don't know why so many Europeans have trouble with the concept of neverending warfare to stop terror on our soils, its really so simple. Maybe the Spaniards will wake up next election, but by then I'm sure the communist prime minister will already have assumed full dictatorial control.

oo stick you!
Anyway, being a student and avid follower of politics, i must refer the right honourable gentleman to Bernstien's Revisionism.
In about the 1920s, a new form of socialism had arrived. While Marx had said that socialism could happen through the ballot box, the real social was a revolutionary creed.
Bernstien had the revolutionary idea that capitalism could be 'tamed' rather than abolished. Therefore, collectivisation of industry could be replaced by careful 'nationalisation' (see 1945's Atlee Labour government), while private industry could still work. Therefore, european social democracy was flavoured by a more progresive liberal stand point. Therefore, the individual could realise their potential, with the state being positive in this, i.e. NHS, welfare state etc....
Then, as the new right politics influenced by Adam Smith's 18th century, social democracy around Europe began to fail, as the long boom of the 1960s died. With the rise of Thatcher and Reagan, the left had to rethink its aims.
Therefore, a 'New' revisionism was created. Now, capitalism was less and less controlled, and the industries that were privatised stayed privatised. Rights and responsibilties were now the aim of the game. The 'socialist' government of Blair now was based on the ideology of communitarian liberalism. Where the individual is part of a community, and has rights, i.e. the right to work, health etc, but also responsibilities, to get into and stay in employment, pay taxes and generally give back to the community.
Therefore, when you say that they have got a 'communist' government, it would be wise to think that the term is a contenous one, and not a blanket term for a government that doesn't rely on the free market to help everyone.

it is a bit silly, and not very helpful really in this 'adult' discussion about the reprucussions of the sunday's election result.
While i would agree that you can really negociate with these terrorists, it isnt really wise to stoke the polarised Islamic world with dubious wars, an aggressive media that paints anyone who wears a turban as a 'suspect' and Guantanamo bay.

this whole idea of Spain bowing for the terrorists is so incredibly patronising.
it leaves me gasping for air.
the people of Spain voted democratically. the larger part of the people wanted political change.
there is NO way that anyone can prove that the Spanish were voting out of 'fear'.
completely ridiculous.

Isn't Tony Blair also a socialist and Chirac more rightwing? If so then it doesn't really matter wether you're left- or rightwing where issues like the war and occupation are concerned, does it? Anyway I don't think anyone can convince the other to change their opinion on a messageboard like this one.

spain is not sleeping with the enemy.
Zapatero has said he is committed to the war against terror, and bush has said they they are looking forward to working together.
See yahoo news
Zapatero is not committed to the US occupation of iraq, but that is a completely different issue to the war against terror ... unless you watch fox news etc ....
If you want to know why its a different issue, read chomsky

Tony made one mistake, he brought WMD into the equation over Iraq. It gave the opposers some argument to use against him. It was a weak and unnessary thing to do; it was always about the humanitarian issue. He felt he needed more of a reason to do what always needed to be done. That was his mistake.
