They are buying time to regroup and to focus their efforts on other targets.
Exactly! They just want to lull Europe into a false sense of (relative) security, so their next attack can be even bigger.
“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

This thread isn't about the war or at least it shouldn't be. It's about the stupidity of Saint Marcus.
It's about European views on terrorism. If you give in to them, they won't kill you. Oh yeah, let's give in to terrorism, lets let 'em win! You wanna see how that works out look at Isreal and Palestine... really seems to be working there.
Japher, calm down, will ya? Actually SM is alone so far with his opinion on the relevance of this "truce", even among his fellow Europeans. This includes commies like Spiffor and Anarchists like me.

Something like this?
You don't frighten us, English American pig-dogs! Go and boil your bottom, sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called Arthur King Dubya President, you and all your silly English k-nnnnniggets American r-rrrrrrockets. Thpppppt! Thppt! Thppt!
They're calling a truce, they're not calling for a truce. That means Europe doesn't have to change anything (Zapatero already decided to pull out the Spanish troops, right?). It's not like any security agencies will actually take a break now, or any other European nations will withdraw any troops.
So they can call their truce all they want... I think that's also what Saint Marcus means.

Or Spain and E.T.A. , Italy and the Red Brigades, Great Britain and the I.R.A. , Germany and Baader Meinhof and the Rote Armee Fraktion, France and Carlos the Jackal....
all instances where 'Europe' DIDN'T give in to terrorism.
I do not for one moment believe that Spain 'gave in' to Al Qaeda- when they wouldn't do so in six decades of struggle with E.T.A. .
Still, I'm sure it suits the opinions of some Americans (and others) to view Europeans as being 'soft' on terror, or more easily influenced than Americans.
After all, the Eurocommies have had so little experience of terrorist atrocities, haven't they?
