Today at 6:30 (GMT, 7:30 (AM) in Spain) thirteen bombs blasted three metropolitan trains. 200 victims died, 34 were deadly injured and more than 1450 were wounded. Among them, as you can imagine, even children going to school. This happened at important stations in Madrid (Atocha was the most affected).
The European Parliament set European Terrorism Victims' Day on 11-M in support to all victims of this terrible act.
As you'll read in the newspapers or in following liks, politicians blame the terrorist group Freedom for the Basque Country (aka ETA) but the political wing of ETA blames the Islamic Resistance Al-Qaeda. Nothing's sure for now.
Al-Qaeda claimed the crime at a British newspaper
(latest stats: 7350 days, 9 hours, 7 minutes, 44 seconds ago)
Anyway, I just want to express my condolences to all victims and their families
RECQUIESCAT IN PACE
