I'd agree, the Spanish Goverment was a Supproter (I wouldn't use the word strong) of the US.
However, even after the election, the attempts at attacks continued, even through the new Spannish Goverment was not as supportive of the US.
Bali. Yes, Australians were killed/injured. But were they the target? or was it just that hit the tourist areas, and you will cause death/injury to Austrailians, they being the majority of tourists there?
The fact remains that there is the ability to recruit in both Bali and Spain. Other Countries have a similar level of support for the US as Australia and Spain, but have not been attacked. Why? Is it because the world doesn't care that much? If no Aussies were killed in Barli, do you think it would have rated more than 2 lines in your morning paper for example?
