Condolences for the Innocent of Madrid

Spock | 12.03.2004 19:29 | Anti-militarism | Indymedia | World

I would like to take the opportunity of the open forum of Indymedia to send my deepest Condolences for the 200 innocent people who died in Madrid at the hands of terrorists who have no morals. If you would like to leave your signs of respect, leave a comment.

A Victim of the Terror Atrocities

Responsible?


This is yet another example of terrorism hitting soceity and civilisation and murdering of innocent civilians. But was ETA responsible?

Terrorist experts are suggesting this was the work of Osama Bin Laden's terror and murder organisation Al Qaeda. There are many more pointers towards a Al Qaeda terror attack rather than ETA. Firstly, it bears all the hallmarks of the disgraceful terror group, fronted by terror imbecile Bin Laden. The attack was was unexpected, low-tech and with the aim of inflicting mass casualties. The bombs were all packed on trains for mass-murder. There was also no warning. ETA generally warn of attacks, to prevent the risk of killing lots of innocent civilians. They are only interested in getting their cause into the news, and to be heard. Al Qaeda however are based on terror and murder.

The attack was also well co-ordinated, like other Al-Qaeda atrocities, like September the 11th. While ETA, prefer to assassinate politicians and soldiers. Regional terror groups such as the ETA the IRA and the PLO always hesitate from inflicting mass casualties because it's not in their political interest to do so. The largest ever death count by ETA was in the low 20s.

Al-Qaeda do have a motif for this repulsive crime. They can stir up even more trouble in Spain between ETA and the Spanish Government. This could lead to the Spanish Government saying to the US, 'we can't support your war on terror, were too busy with are own'. It could scare the likes of France & Germany supporting the US in anti-terrorist campaigns in the future.

Other evidence in support of Al-Qaeda carrying out the deaths of innocent civilians include a van used in the attack with a tape of verses from the Koran in a stolen van containing seven detonators. They even claim to have carried out the attack exactly 911 days after September the 11th.

These terrorists must be brought to justice, and tried for their crimes.

The innocent on those trains and around them, did not deserve to die. These villians will be found, and they will receive punishment for this plague they have brought upon the planet.

I send my condolences to the people of Spain.

Live Long and Prosper to the people who survived or witnessed the attacks. The world is with you.

Spock
