When Politics Interfere with the War on Terror:
Quote:Non-Spaniards in the West are generally shocked to learn that any major section of Spanish political opinion would blame the Basques, rather than Islamists, for the March 11 atrocity. The Basque fascists of ETA are certainly bloody-minded enough to kill, and may bear responsibility for some ancillary involvement in the case. But trustworthy Spanish experts decry the spread of conspiracy theories, which assert a specific agreement between the opposition Socialists, the Basque fascists, and Islamists to remove Aznar from power by an act of terror. In the U.S., many have criticized ex-President Bill Clinton and President George W. Bush for their handling of the al-Qaida menace, but nobody except marginal, paranoid types alleges that Clinton or Bush deliberately conspired with bin Ladin in the mass murder of September 11, 2001.Un artículo interesante.
