Sad news from Spain, Bomb from ETA terrorist in airport today
 

Here are the news from CNN:

A permanent cease fire with a terrorist organization that failed? Maybe Zapatero should pull troops out of somewhere to appease them.

When we thought that the peace was closer, the motherfucking assassins are back. With this they break the negotiations with the Spanish government and they are back to the only "words" they know, violence without sense.

It's not about politics anymore, they are just a bunch of assassins that can't get back to a standard life in peace. They are too used to kill, steal, kidnap, sell drugs and weapons etc to go back to a normal life. They have even lost the respect from the citizens of their region, what they call their "country".

Who would offer them a job knowing that they have killed innocent people? who will forget? they know it and they will keep killing until all them are in jail or dead.

That is why most of Spanish were against that negotiation with the terrorists by our pussy gobernment, sadly they don't know how to talk and to deal with civilizated people, they just understand messages by the guns.

While i didn't support our troops to be sent to the Iraq "petrol and money" war, I must agree that Zapatero did us a big damage when retiring the troops just after the bombs in Madrid, as he made the terrorist to look as winners and our own goberment as pussies.

To achieve peace with a terrorist organization, you must remove their power. You can do this a number of ways. Appeasement is one way, but there is little incentive for the leaders to stop using their power to advance their cause. You can try to wipe them out, but as we've seen time and time again, this isn't an easy thing to do.

Right now, terrorism is the most popular weapon of the people. It allows any fringe group to make a spectacular entry into the world view. That fact that they kill people is almost irrelevant to the attention that their causes get. ETA giving up their most powerful weapon in today's political climate is a very unlikely scenario. A group of a few thousand changed the way the most powerful nation on earth views the world, and sent fear to every corner of the world. What is the incentive for ETA to walk away now?

We need to learn how to deal with these groups and remove their power. Since we give them the power, we should be able to take it back, but we haven't figured out how to do it yet.

Swiftly and immediately put them down. They cannot be allowed to breath. The moment you even hesitate they see that as a small victory, let alone giving into their demmands. Treat them like the animals they are.

I've yet to see this tactic work, but maybe someone will figure out an acceptable way to do this.

Isn't the problem being able to do this without any collateral damage, when every bit of collateral damage gives support to the terrorists' cause and raises doubt amongst those on the fence? It seems like a tactic that can't win until you can invent ammo/bombs that have the ability to harm only those that are definitely the enemy, which is obviously impossible since you could be standing next to some of them and not know which side they are on.

I think Chuck Norris did it once...

It worked for Israel, until the International community made them pull the horns back in...

Isreal has been fighting terrorisim nonstop since the country was created. They didn't stop terrorisim with force, nor do I think they could.

Could unfettered terrorism in Israel lead to a collapse of the Israeli government?

I don't know, nor am I trying to make the argument that using force against terrorists does not achieve results. My point is that I don't think that massive force alone can end a terrorist threat.
