I Take Back All That I Said About the Spaniards.
The WSJ had a piece by soon to be former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Anzar who said:
Ours is a battle between freedom, democracy and civilization, on the one hand, and terror on the other. If on September 11 we were all American, on March 11 the whole world was Spanish. Let's maintain this spirit. We cannot just abandon this battle; it is everyone's fight... [T]errorism is not a local phenomenon, confined to particular areas or countries, to be confronted with domestic means alone. On the contrary, terrorism is a global phenomenon, one that crosses borders. And it gains in strength when we think that it is the problem of 'others' and should be taken care of by 'others.'
Mr. Anzar, when I realize men such as your self support this country, I am proud to be an American. And I know that with such courage and honesty, the question in the war against terror is not if we will win, but when.
