Explosions in Spain
It is said there were 4 explotions on the morning trains into Madrid, Spain. Death toll is, at the moment, 173.... this will probably increase.
The bask seperatist organisation ETA (Euzkadi Ta Azkatasuna) denys they are behind this.
It seems clear, at present time, it is a terrorist attack though even if it is unclear to what happened
........................more to come

yup same here, Batasuna, the political wing of the ETA firmly states the ETA is not responsible for this
it's not their style... normally they phone the police 15 minutes before-hand so that they have time to evacuate the vicinity, that didn't happen now

All will become clear in time, but I have to admit it isn't the style usually adopted by the ETA.
At the same time, it doesn't seem likely that it would be any of the current 'reigning' terrorist movements, it's not their style either. And it would hardly be the target area of a movement such as the Taliban or Hussein loyalists.
We'll just have to wait and see.

they found other bombpackages too, so all in all, it could have been worse... not that it's any comfort

Well, at least those packages should give the investigating authorities some clues as to the origins of the explosives, and who may be involved.

I doubt it was ETA I think Der Soldat had a point. with his comment on it prolly not being any current terrorist organisations. They usualy claim that they have done it. as far as I know no group has claimed these attacks

I really don't know much as ETA goes, but I agree Fire, that it probably wasn't them, due to the whole idea that they warn people before something, and there was no warning.. but there never should have to be a warning because nothing like this should happen...

There are a lot of things that should not have happened but did and, unfortunately, still do
