Topic: About 200 Killed, and 1500 wounded in Spain.
Thursday about 200 were killed and 1500 injured in a terrorist attack in Madrid, Spain.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_depth/...ks/default.stm http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2004/madrid.bombing/ About 10 bombs went off in four different trains, almost simultaneously, at three train stations. ETA was first blamed, but an Arabic-language newspaper in London said it received an e-mail claim of responsibility in the name of al Qaeda from the Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigade. The Spanish governemt still has ETA as it's prime suspect, but there are also several other proofs that can link it to Al-Qaeda. ETA has officially denied that they were behind the bombings. The bombs that were used, were also a bit more advanced than the ones normally used by ETA. The terrorist attack happened exactly 2 and a half year after the 11. Sept attacks in USA, this is 912 days after the attack on USA. (It could actually be 911(!) days after if we didn't have a 29 February this year!) This has already been called 311, the Spanish 911........ |
