Islamofascism vs. al Qaeda
A new AP report says that the perpetrators of the 3/11/04 Madrid train bombings were not directed by al-Qaeda, as previously believed (hat tip: Captain Ed):
A two-year probe into the Madrid train bombings concludes the Islamic terrorists who carried out the blasts were homegrown radicals acting on their own rather than at the behest of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network, two senior intelligence officials said.Spain still remains home to a web of radical Algerian, Moroccan and Syrian groups bent on carrying out attacks — and aiding the insurgency against U.S. troops in Iraq — a Spanish intelligence chief and a Western official intimately involved in counterterrorism measures in Spain told The Associated Press.
Ed Morrissey thinks this is bad news for both Spain and the rest of us allied against the Islamofascists: this latest finding reinforces the fact driven home by the London bombings that there are unassimilated Muslim citizens of all the Western European countries who are sufficiently alienated and militant enough to attack their own countrymen.
But in a strategic sense this could be similar to the recent electoral success of Hamas in that, although promising more intractable problems in the short term, it defines the long term problem more clearly. That is to say, it is not only al Qaeda that is our enemy, but worldwide Islamofascism.
Along those lines, I wonder what this discovery will do to the frantic efforts of the Left to disavow any connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda?
