I read it over and over here and in the media and from Ashcroft today, that Al-qaeda did the Madrid terror attack. Even this week, in the FBI apology article for the fingerprinting mistake CBS has the connection at the end of the article:
"The bombings were blamed on Islamic militants with possible links to al Qaeda." But the FBI and other intel specialists say that is just so much nonsense. So why does Mueller stand beside Ashcroft and let him make that association again without correcting him?
Thanks to
whatreallyhappened.com for keeping this story on the front page. He reaches a lot of people. Without constantly reminding people that there is no proven link, the media whores can keep the booga-booga propaganda going, and make even well informed people start accepting this as fact. I'm so sick of the propaganda screaming out from the headlines everytime I look at a newspaper. It's sickening that they can get away with it.
Officials: Group tying self to blasts may not be realBy Bryan Bender

WASHINGTON -- A group purporting to be part of Al Qaeda that claimed responsibility for the Madrid train bombings and warned of a looming attack on the United States seems to be a phantom organization, according to US intelligence officials and terrorism specialists.
...US intelligence officials do not know whether the group exists.
...Another US intelligence official said, "This group, organization, or whatever it is, is a phantom."
...Larry Mefford, executive assistant director for counterterrorism at the FBI, told Congress that the group's terrorism claims were "wishful thinking."
..."We have no information confirming the actual existence of this group," Mefford said, adding that the group also has claimed responsibility on Internet sites for the Aug. 5, 2003, bombing of the Marriott hotel in Jakarta, Indonesia.
...Venzke said: "They started claiming responsibility for just about everything in the world. We've never been able to determine if it is just one person sitting at a computer having fun or if it really is a group."
