Democracy Won in Spain
RECEIVED Mon., March 22, 2004
Dear Editor,
To those who suggest that the elections in Spain are a victory for the terrorists, I say that the terrorists won when the U.S.-led coalition invaded Iraq and gave al Qaeda the ultimate recruiting tool.
The people of Spain have thrown out a leadership that defied the public will by joining the coalition, failed to protect the public from the danger that defiance brought on, then "misled" the public about who was attacking them. It sounds to me like democracy has won in Spain.
