Our school has a Spainih exchange student from Mardid. His dad was supposed to be on one of the trains that were blown up. Something happened though and his dad was running 10 minutes late that morning and he diceded to catch a later train and arrived at the station after the bombs went off. Has anyone claimed responiblity yet? Except USA full support to the Spainards, they supported Iraq. God bless Spain.

well supposedly al-quaida might have done it. some group with links to it claimed it was them in a london paper, i believe. but it is more likely to be the ETA terrorist group, which has done many other lesser terrorist attacks in Spain in the last 10-15 years or so.

Last week or so didn't France get some threats from a group called AZF? The MO's don't much but AZF was threating to blow up the train tracks and some bombs have been found. Time will tell.

A group connected to al-Qaida has claimed responsibility.

That group also claimed responsibility for accidental airplane malfunctions which caused disaster and for the Blackout last summer. They have no credibility.

However, there may be evidence of an al-quaida connection still, this is far beyond the Basque movement's capabilities as proven so far.
