WASHINGTON (CNN) -- This week's deadly train bombings in Spain will not lead to a rise in the U.S. color-coded terror threat alert system, a Department of Homeland Security spokesman said Friday.
"Based on the current intelligence, we have no specific indicators that terrorist groups are considering such an attack in the U.S. in the near term," said department spokesman Brian Roehrkasse.

Yep.
I recall that graphic.
Most people thought it had to do with Wall Street.

Using a Google translator, I saw that a lot of the sites had to do with political issues and AZF response to them.

I can see why you would mention Aznar but I've been convinced since first seeing that photo, that the face on the bull is GWB. Others have mentioned that it looks like Qaddafi, but to me, it's GW.
Osama striking the President through Wall Street.

Makes good sense.
All the copies of it I've seen are way too small to say for sure who it is.

I agree with you - I always thought the head on the bull was our President, and the far-reaching consequences of 9/11 on our stock market.
But something in my mind keeps making the connection to the running of the bulls in Spain. Does anyone know when this takes place? I know it draws a great number of tourists and residents alike. Of course, this may all be for naught, as Spain has already been struck, and I fear AQ is likely to be on to their next target...

Arab militant vows attacks on Russia - Jazeera
Sat 13 March, 2004 16:02
DUBAI (Reuters) - Arab television channel Al Jazeera has broadcast a videotape of the man it says is the leader of Arab fighters in Chechnya, vowing to stage a new wave of attacks inside Russia.
Abu al-Waleed, said by the Kremlin of being among those behind last month's bombing on the Moscow underground, added that his campaign might depend on the outcome of Russia's coming presidential polls.
"The enemies of God drop mines in the forests and, God willing, we will return them to the Russians and they will find them on their land and in the midst of their families," said the bearded man who was standing in a forest.
"But perhaps we may wait a little to see the upcoming elections. If they elect someone who declares war on Chechnya, then the Russians are declaring war against the Chechens and by God we will send them these (mines)... Not only these but also things that did not cross their minds," he said.
The man, wearing military fatigues and a beret and speaking in Arabic, was shown picking up a "butterfly" mine from foliage. He said his fighters had found hundreds of them.
"We will return these to you (Russians)...You will, God willing, see hundreds of people crippled," he said.
Officials at Qatar-based Al Jazeera were not immediately available on Saturday to comment on when or how they received the videotape.
Security has been tightened across Russia ahead of Sunday's elections and extra troops have been stationed along the border of Chechnya, where rebels have long been fighting Russian rule.
The Kremlin blames Chechen rebels for a spate of attacks including a suicide bombing which killed close to 50 people on a train in southern Russia before last December's parliamentary polls and the attack on the underground, which killed around 40.
The Kremlin believes Abu al-Waleed was also among those behind the 1999 apartment bombings across Russia that prompted President Vladimir Putin to send troops back into Chechnya.

is this the man in the bull? Not sure, I don't believe I ever found a full-sized copy of the bull picture. I just backed-up 900 MB of Jihadist stuff I've download over the last 6 months. Let me do some digging and see if I have a larger version.

Would love to know what the connection is with this group with the Spain terrorists?
Same group?
An attempt to raise money for the next attack?
