A document found in the personal computer of Jamal Ahmidan, “The Chinese”, undersigned by the Abu Hafs al Masri brigades and dated March 15, 2004 declares that the March 11 perpetrators intented to remove [Aznar’s] Popular Party from the government.
The document was recently found by police, according to the Cope radio network who has seen it. It says: “those who were suprised for our quick claim of responsibility in the battle of Madrid, let them know that there were other circumstances. In the case of Madrid, the time factor was very important in order to put an end to the government of Aznar the ignoble.
Just more support for what the President and his supporters have been saying all along. You cannot appease these people. You must take the fight to them. Its also supportive of the idea that the war in Iraq is a war against terror. Otherwise, why would the terrorists be attacking American allies in that war?
It also flies in the face of some other news that's making the rounds today: the idea that a war in Iraq is what the terrorists wanted. Again, if war in Iraq was what Osama and other terrorists wanted then why are they attacking nations like Spain and Britain with the apparent goal of making them withdraw from that war?
