The translation of that diagramm published by EL MUNDO last week is here:

1. Reference of the report: The report revealed yesterday by EL MUNDO has the same reference numbers that the one handed over by the Interior Ministry to the judge Del Olmo.

[Del Olmo is the investigating judge in the 3/11 case]

2. Purpose of the report: in the orginal it is asked -Study, Analysis, and Forensic Report-. However, in the one sent to the judge it is only asked an "analysis of the samples".

3. Number of forensic experts: the original report points out that the analysis have been endowed to two experts of the National Police Corps and a technician. Nevertheless, in the second one, only one expert shows, moreover, he is not one of the previous.

4. Analytical techniques: in the report unveiled yesterday nine trials are carried out, while in the one from Interior [Ministry] only six are shown. Meaningfully, the "Bibliographic study" has been removed.

[Bibliographic study means searching files related to other cases looking for coincidences].

5. Different observations: in the original one it appears five observations. The first one points out that the substance found (boric acid) had been identified in the that same laboratory related to a search in a ETA hide-out. The third observation warns that the use of this substance by terrorists is very uncommon, and therefore it is possible that there be a link between the perpetrators of both events. Both observations have been supressed in the writing send to the National High Court [where the Office of Judge Del Olmo is].

6. Incongruity in the text: in the report that is included in the summary [of the 3/11 case], it is not understandable that it is said that "the first two pages" are signed, as this writing is composed of only two pages. In addition, plural is used: "signatures", but only one person signs it. The forger may have committed a mistake as he copied the phrase from the original document.

7. Date: the original report was signed on March 21, the one sent to the judge, the day 22.

Sadly, I don't think there is anything more translated, JerseyHighlander; but I'll do my best to keep all of you informed, now that not only American, but the international media as a whole does not dare to reflect what really is happening in Spain.

GladesGuru, I think this guys learnt these public opinion manipulation techniques from Joseph Stalin and Joseph Goebbels.

For instance, yesterday they tried to divert mounting pressure on 3/11 announicing that the Princess of Asturias is again pregnant, which means a Constitutional reform if she has a daughter again. Today all the Spanish media, even EL MUNDO, had to reflect the matter as main news.
