[lbo-talk] London bombings

[andie nachgeborenen]

I hope I am wrong, but the Spanish case was quite
different, Blair is riding high for lots of reasons

in the crude and heavy-handed way that the Spanish
Conservatives did, and no election looms, so Blair can
continue to disregard public opinion as he has in the
past. We'll see. jks
