I've Been Thinking:

A Judge in Spain indicted 32 people on charges of belonging to a terrorist organization, it happened yesterday.
All 32 are members in Ansar al Islam, an affiliate of al Qaeda.

Most of those arrested are from the recruitment arm of Ansar al Islam.
Their job is to entice new people to sign on and fight for al Qaeda in Iraq.
Primary goals are fighting the Shiites, fighting Western influences and unseating and destabilizing non-Muslim governments.

Spain is still spinning form the horrific terrorist attacks that left 191 dead and 1824 wounded in Madrid on March 11, 2004.
The government is now actively trying to protect Spaniards from Islamic terror.
Spain's intelligence network is highly advanced and lawmakers are working to change laws and sentences so that convicted terrorist organizers receive serious jail time even before the heinous murderous attacks have been perpetrated.

The Western world has a lot to learn from Spain.
Bravo.
