    Interesting, Spain had only 1,300 troops in Iraq and pulled out in 2004. The left would have us believe that jihadi terrorist attacks are the result of western meddling, why hit Spain then? In fact France never joined the multi-national force in the first place and have gotten hit by jihadi terrorist attacks worse than anybody in Europe. So is it the meddling or something else?

    Spanish authorities thwarted a second attack or the death count could have been much higher.

    And Belgium or Germany who never was into any war for a long time.

    I would never forgive Muhammed, the quran and anyone who support the muslim terrorist ideology or commited attacks. I know however they don't care of my forgiveness.

    They attack because they are being defeated in the middle east.
    They attack because they think they can provoke us into giving up our values.
    They attack because they want us to hate/fear all Muslims.
    They attack because they want to divide us.

    I don't blame all muslims for all attacks, but I blame Quran and Muhammed for all attacks !

    I consider muslims just as people who follow the wrong ideology.

    They attack, because they want to kill you.

    Lol no they don't. These are nothing more than left wing talking points issued out so that we don't stop importing Muslims, which is what they depend on in order to carry out these attacks.

    But it's ironic that the same people who excoriated Bush for the "they hate us for our freedoms" line are issuing out "they attack us so we give up our values."

    There are also more guns in the hands of U.S. citizens than in any other country.

    The point I'm trying to make is, the attacks aren't in direct relation to the Armies that participated in Iraq.

    That didn't helped. The chaos created by the fall of Saddam Hussein or Muhammar Khadafi gave the possibility for djihadist to rise when those dictators were able to contain that. Those both men were still monster, but not our problem.

    The 2003 attack in Iraq is one of the secundary cause. About the main cause, we can consider the rise of salafist and all the horrors comited by Muhammed or said in the quran.

    Anyway, most of those terrorists are from the maghreb (morroco, algeria, tunisia) so not really related to the iraqian.

    I really don't care if progressives are killed in jihadi attacks in Europe. No point in feeling sorry for the moron that jumps into the lion's den.

    will politicians worldwide, and especially the US be calling for the dramatic overnight of any/all Islamic monuments immediately?

    perhaps I missed that update, didn't watch the "news" today.

    I find it hard to feel any empathy for them, they invited them in and this is what they get.

    I don't want progressives to die, but if they welcome monsters into their homes despite the warning of logical people, who are we to care or stop them ?

    Ah. So now you are openly sympathizing with terrorists as long as they kill progressives?

    I don't want them to die either, but I agree with you. it's hard to feel much empathy when they do it to themselves then cry about it.

    Maybe because when we invited spanish, polish, italian, armenian, russian, portuguese, it was sometimes hard at the beginning but ended well.

    I don't know for the rest of countries, but a lot of european countries developped a monstruous culpability about blaming religious minorities. They didn't understood that muslims aren't jews.

    Hero Spanish cop killed 4 Cambrils terror attack suspects, official says
    August 18, 2017 - A heroic Spanish police officer on Friday single-handedly killed four of the five suspects who were believed to have carried out a terror attack in the Catalan seaside town of Cambrils, a senior police official said. 'Pop pop... and he fell down.'

    Police: Attacks in Spain are linked, took long time to plan
    Aug 18,`17 -- The back-to-back vehicle attacks in Barcelona and a nearby resort had been planned for a long time by an Islamic terrorist cell - and could have been far deadlier had its base not been destroyed by an apparently accidental explosion this week, Spanish officials said Friday.

    Most every Muslim follows the same koran and Muhammad.
