It is after 9 am on Monday. I just read an AOL new article about the train bombing and its fallout in Spain. <br /> <br />Here are some of the results credited to the train bombing: <br /> <br />Spain's ruling party just received a MAJOR defeat in the recent election. <br />The people of Spain voted out the current leader and have elected a man who vows to bring home the Spani***roops from Iraq. They believe that helping the United States in Iraq brought the terriorist attack upon their nation. Therefore they are bringing home their troops when their pledged time is over. <br /> <br />Now get this, Aznar -- Spain's ousted leader -- accomplished the following while in office: <br /> <br />8 straight years of economic growth <br /> <br />cut unemployment in half <br /> <br />made Spain a founding member of the euro single currency <br /> <br />brought a degree of prominence to a long-ignored country. <br /> <br />Aznar's party was favored to win the elections but lost. Why? Credit is given to the train bombings and support of the American led war in Iraq. <br /> <br />The newly elected leaded, Rodriguez Zapatero, vows to fight terrorism. In one way this seems like a defeat to President Bush by losing a country's support in the fight again terrorism. It is hard to tell right now just exactly how this will all pan out. Only history can tell, and it is still undecided. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
