Report: FBI Finds Link Between 9/11, Madrid Bombs

MADRID (Reuters) - The FBI has established the clearest link yet between the March 11 Madrid train bombings and the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, a Spanish newspaper reported Sunday.


The FBI has told Spanish investigators that one of three men believed to have planned the Sept. 11 attacks from Spain in the summer of 2001 also gave the order to carry out the Madrid blasts, the newspaper ABC reported.

The train bombings killed 191 people and wounded 1,900 three days before a general election. In videotapes, the bombers claimed the attacks in the name of al Qaeda in Europe and said they were in revenge for Spain sending troops to Iraq (news - web sites) and Afghanistan (news - web sites).

Investigators have long concluded that the Sept. 11 attacks were partially planned in Spain in July 2001.

Hijacker Mohammed Atta, believed to have piloted one of the airliners that crashed into New York's World Trade Center, visited Spain two months before the attacks and met two men.

interesting

The FBI believe's this; what a minute...is one of these guys in Portland?

G-Men on the case

:evilgrin:

It's going to take a long time for the FBI to rebuilt their credibility. Their lab has a history of finding the "evidence".

They were Ashcrotch's army -- and now when they should be investigating vote fraud in Ohio -- they can't be bothered. With the bushie mafia in charge I don't have faith that any government organization has time to work for those of us who pay the government's upkeep.
