You are right Kent, but please do note that the Spanish goverment was in a very difficult position here, for if they had told the truth then the socialist party would have said the cause of these atacks was due the PP´s coalition with both american and british troops.

The publics reaction to the attack had nothing to do with the govts alleged attempt to disguise the perpetrator.
If the public were supportive if the coalition then it wouldnt have made a difference if it was al quaeda and not basque.
The public were rightly shocked by the train attack but panicked.
Bad enough if spain was the only country involved in the operation.But surrendering and leaving ones coalition partners in the field with a newly inspired enemy is unforgivable.
Decades of refusing to negotiate with terrorists,countless innocent lives lost , and all in vain , because the spanish showed that teror works a treat .
I would be ashamed to call myself spanish.Their cowardice is unsurpassed even by france.

No; it's a response to liars.
Their government told them it was the Basque separatists; the Spanish people learned via the Internet that it was Al Queda.
They were kicking out the admin that lied to them. It has been commonly misinterpreted in the way you suggest.

I don't know enough about what their response was to be able to answer this.
Do you mean the response of the Spanish government? Or that of the electorate? I assume that they didn't all react in exactly the same way? Please be more specific.

Can the response of invading a country in a knee jerk reaction based on lies and false intelligence be called courageous?

Yes it can.
They show the whole world that you can get what you want from Spain by blowing stuff up in Madrid.
They will regret this decision in the future.

More like sympathizers. Many european countries are filled to the brim with people who would love to join this century's version of the nazis.

This seems more a political arguement, not a philosophical one.
