@cozzie2000 I am Spanish and I don't agree with the way we left Iraq, but the whole campaign has been a failure so far. Spanish soldiers were withdrawn because it was an illegal act, aside from UN approval. Unlike that of Afghanistan, where our men still are.

Spain has got far more antiterrorist experience than you, having been suffering relentless attacks since 1960. More than 820 deaths from ETA, those bloody killers to which your media euphemistically refers as "Basque separatist group".

@cozzie2000 can your comments be any more ignorant??? Fighting terrorism cannot be done this way, that's not the way democracy works

[cozzie2000]

Well, I guess the pussies of Spain are trying to ingratiate themselves with the Islamofascists. Not surprising since they turned tail and ran so quickly from Iraq after the first terrorist bomb went off in their country. This is their way of saying to the terrorists, "We love you! We really do! See? We'll prosecute your enemies! Please don't bomb us any more!"

Cowards.

@miguelucho20008 Más fácil me lo pones "majo" He dicho que montesquieu se revuelve en su tumba pero ahora que has dicho eso de los demás países, poco le faltará para convertirse en zombie.

[miguelucho20008]

A ver, "majo". Que el parlamento elija a los jueces no significa que no sean independientes. De hecho, se necesitan acuerdos y negociaciones para la elección definitiva.

Según tu regla de tres, ningún jueces es independiente en ningún sitio del mundo: en UK forman parte de la cámara de los lores, en USA los nomina el presidente, en Italia pueden afiliarse a partidos polícos.

Vete a darle lecciones a otro, porque aquí pinchas en hueso... "majo".

[granudisimo]

A ver, el CGPJ (Consejo General del Poder Judicial), es elegido por el parlamento, así que de independiente nada majo, aquí no hay separación de poderes.

That judge is not independent, There´s no power separation in Spain, the general council of justice power is elected by the parlament, Montesquieu is struggling in his grave.
