An anarchist group has targeted prominent Roman Catholics in Spain using bombs hidden in boxes of sex toys....They targeted the archbishop of Pamplona, Francisco Perez, and the headteacher of a private school belonging to the ultra-conservative Legionnaires of Christ movement in Madrid....The archbishop told EFE that he vaguely recalled receiving a package that contained powder that police removed. "We didn't give it much importance, but later it was said to be a bomb," he said....

....Police in Spain believe the group probably only has five members, but authorities have expressed concern that extremist groups could take advantage of widespread disillusionment as unemployment in the country hits 26 percent.

the Artisans Club for New Uses for Coffee, claimed to have made a bomb out of an espresso coffee machine packed with gunpowder and shrapnel that was planted at a bank branch,

Now there is something you don't see everyday.

Recently a bomb inside a pressure cooker left outside a public prosecutor’s office was detonated by bomb squad officers.

Was there a sale on pressure cookers recently. /s

Or maybe these groups are working from the same play book,

Sounds like a more militant FEMEN type group.

I must have missed something. How are “prominment Roman Catholics” responsible for 26% unemployment?

The true face of homo-fascism. Yes, even here in the US.

Hi Alex- this is too bizarre. It reads like a onion satire site. Very dark and weird. Any other sources for this “dark joke.” Strange.

I wonder if this group will make it onto the Army's list of extremist radicals like along with Christians.

I won't expect so.
