Re: MERGED - Bombs Found In Spain
 

Looks like Jerrek was right. They are almost certain now it seem that this bomb has close ties to the previous ones in Madrid.

I suppose the 64 million dollar question is Was this bomb planted recently, or was it an overhang from their previous campaign? There was a detonator attached to the bomb, but they haven't said wether it was live or not. I suppose that indicates it was and that it was planted recently, breaking their own word that they would cease hostilities against Spain.

If Jerrek's point of view was based on any *facts* I would have no objection to it. Since he has merely jumped to a conclusion based on absolutely no evidence whatsoever, I take exception.

Re: Bombs sent to spanish media
 

Bit of a moot point now though as it's the same explosives used in the madrid bombing.

Re: Bombs sent to spanish media
 

Ahem:

"MADRID, Spain (AP) †� A Spanish railroad inspector found a 26-pound bomb hidden in a bag on a busy high-speed line Friday, and police said the device may contain the same dynamite used in last month's Madrid train bombings that killed 191 people."

(My emphasis)

I would say, the terrorists arnt here to score political victories and change goverments, so what better way to prove it than to bomb spain again just to prove there point.

There attacks may of changed the european political landscape forever by putting a pro european goverment into spain, but that was never there objective. It was to cause terror, pure and simple.

Shame about the policeman, but good riddance to that **** :mad:

On a side note,

11/09 (Sept11) and now 11/03 (madrid)... Thinking about 11/6 next?

Someone also mentioned Madrid bombing was 911 days after the Sept 11th :O

Well, 912 if you could the leap year..
