O.P. RE: Madrid train blasts

A lot of historians would disagree with that... it was one of the first uses of bombs which caused true mass destruction, and the town was quite literally razed to the ground in a matter of a few air raids, civilians and all. It wasn't really provoked either; Hitler's main intent was to see how effective the raids would be, and the only victory was yet again evading the league of nations
In the sight of German it was a kind of terrorism (All what the Nazis did was terrorism before 1938). But there's no doubt among historians that Hitler was willing to support with it the National Front leaded by Franco during the Civil War. Guernica was a powerful Republican city so it was an important step for the National Front.

RE: Madrid train blasts
dwergs says:
Last week's rail bomb attacks in Madrid have claimed the lives of 200 people and injured more than 1,400. People are expressing their sympathies for the victims of this disaster by putting a lowercase "x" in front of their MSN Messenger display names. They're told to do so by a "chain instant message" (call it SPIM if you want) forwarded via MSN Messenger from contact to contact. Another version of the message commands the letter l instead, which stands for Liberty.
A more recent, rather humorous instant chain message claims "x" is a serious insult in the Timbuktu language and asks to replace the letter with "y".
Jokes aside, Mess.be's thoughts are with the victims and their families.

O.P. RE: Madrid train blasts
I just want to remind everyone that our hearts are still bleeding one year after this terrible and unfair tragedy.
We all were in that train, and a little piece of everyone's life was taken away.

Yeah, we know and still can't believe something like this happened
I remember that day, I had to study for History, just as when the 11-S attacks happened...
