The international oligarchies might want to continue the
Strategy of Tension in Spain to support their Socialist puppets.
It will probably end in the hands of ETA.

Other such operations of the French establisment:
French capture Eta suspects. Most of the eight tons of dynamite stolen were never recovered, but utilized to murder Spaniards.
As you can read, France is ETA's supermarket for explosives, they simply have to enter and get what they want:
Nitromethane stolen in Fall 2007
Not only explosives, also guns:
Eta reportedly steal 350 guns in France
It is shameful that the French establishment and international oligarchies keep providing cover to a terror group in order to keep Spain as a colony.
Ben Laden learnt a lot from these guys.

Too bad for the Spanish people, that the Spanish courts
have just last week given a ‘green light’ for terror there.

Half a pound was apparently used to destroy Pan Am flight 103.

Let's not minimize: Used in the right manner 28 kilos of plastique can do a huge amount of damage and cause a huge amount of loss of life.
It has twice the explosive power of TNT, is malleable, and can be molded into small apparently innocuous items. It has virtually no odour which makes it hard to detect by sniffer dogs or sniffer equipment.
Less than half a kilo of Semtex bought down a Boeing &$& over Lockerbie Scotland in December 1988

A whole 61lbs... Woo. First, it's 61 pounds. Second, even 6 pounds of that stuff could do some major damage.

I'd look at those crazy Swiss.
I'd think with over 600 pounds of semtex is worrisome. The detonators being stolen is just icing on the cake.
The French and all the Europeans should be cr#pping in their pants cause you could be a busy little bee for 10-15 years with that much semtex. That stuff is really stable if you store it right, or so I've been told. PLUS the detonators..... which is the important thing for little newbie bomb makers.
There's probably enough Semtex floating around Europe, Northern Ireland, Asia and South America to have fun.... but with ready made detonators, ya got real problems.
I wonder if it was the stuff in sheets or bricks?

Is Semtex the same as C4 and I don’t mean C4 Corvette?
