Not All Spaniards are Idiots
About 5,000 people gathered outside the conservative Popular Partyâs headquarters in downtown Madrid. Waving Spanish flags and banners, they were protesting the upset win by Socialist leader Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero in Sunday elections that were shaken by terrorist bombings three days earlier. "Zapatero, president of al-Qaida," "Zapatero with terrorism" and "Zapatero resign," they chanted. The protesters dispersed about 30 minutes after the Popular Partyâs defeated candidate, Mariano Rajoy, appeared and applauded at a balcony.Posted by: growler 2004-03-17 |
