Spain Announces Five Arrests in Bombings

From AP:

Spain's interior minister Saturday announced the arrest of five suspects in the Madrid bombings, including three Moroccans.

The other two are Spaniards of "Hindu" origin, minister Angel Acebes said.

The five were arrested in connection with a cell phone inside an explosives-packed gym bag found on one of the bombed commuter trains.

The suspects "could be related to Moroccan extremist groups," the minister said. "But we should not rule out anything. Police are still investigating all avenues. This opens an important avenue."

Islamist reporters at many news agencies including AP, consider it their holy duty to twist news to suit the Islamist cause. In this case the victims are the Hindus, but usually their favourite targets are the Jews. This one item is particularly blatant.

The two indians will turn out to be muslims from India or maybe Kashmir.
Most important thing here is for Spain not to back off and distance itself from the US,just to please the muslim terrorists.
If they`ll do that,they will show the world that giving in to terrorists is safer than resisting them,and we don`t want such a message to be sent out.
Spaniards are hot blooded though and they will want revenge.
