In early April, police cornered terrorists believed responsible for the Madrid train bombing. Facing arrest, the suspects instead chose to set off their explosives, killing themselves plus one police officer. Their sympathizers have taken revenge...against the dead officer:
The coffin and body of special agent Francisco Javier Torronteras were pulled from the tomb in Madrid Sur cemetery in Carabanchel and pushed 1,000 yards in a wheelbarrow before being doused with petrol and set alight.
It seems that pulling out of Iraq is doing little to help Spain in its "peace on terror" campaign.

Behold the power of appeasement.
