"The ministry had said the men arrested Tuesday were suspected of recruiting people to send to jihadist training camps in Africa."
From Agence France-Presse:
MADRID: Spain's Interior Ministry said Friday police had arrested a Moroccan man in Barcelona suspected of having links to Al-Qaeda, three days after three other Moroccans were detained for the same reason. The ministry said the man arrested Friday was "presumed linked to the Al-Qaeda cell dismantled this week." The ministry had said the men arrested Tuesday were suspected of recruiting people to send to jihadist training camps in Africa. Morocco is seeking the trio's extradition, the ministry said, adding they were thought to belong to an Al-Qaeda group which claimed responsibility for more than 30 deaths in attacks in Algeria. Al-Qaeda-linked fighters are being trained in countries in the Sahel region such as Mali, Mauritania and Niger.
This week's arrests follow an investigation launched in 2005 after Morocco dismantled a militant network with branches in Spain. The Algerian-based Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat changed its name late last year after it rebranded itself the North African branch of Al-Qaeda.

Is this the same AQ that, after the Madrid train bombings said to Spain, "See what we can do? Now if you just pull out of Iraq we will let you live in peace (The religion of...)? The same benevolent Islamic society that strives to show its "softer side"? Plleeeeeeze!! This is what we knew would happen and yet......blindly we progress, ever plunging towards the chasm that is our demise. Appeasment is the symptom, Islam is the disease. Get your weapons ready and remember, gun control is hitting your target with the first bullet. "Islamophobes of the world, Unite!"

"Among the dead were five Sunni militants (three Saudis, a Chechen and a Lebanese"
I'm tempted to crack a joke about three sows, a chicken, and a lesbian, but that would be in bad taste.

Nothing you or I or any of us could possibly say or do to even closely rival their evil thoughts and deeds in BAD TASTE or rival them in their wanton abject contempt for the basic Humanity of their "fellow" Human Beings on this planet.
They deem themselves so superior and so "pure" whilst they live in our very lands.. availing themselves of all the opportunities and the very comforts which our Societies provide.. our unquestioning friendship and support given so freely with virtually no question nor demand from them in return..
Yes.. they can only see us as weak-minded fools who grovel before them as we cast the Pearls of Our Societies before these coldhearted swine..
