The Ministry of Interior reports on the explosives two weeks later.
ETA Used Amonal or Amosal Mixed with Hexogen to Increase the Destructive Power in the Attack at T-4 [Barajas Airport Terminal #4]
The attack at the parking of the T-4 terminal in the Barajas airport, that perpetrated ETA the last December 30th, was carried out with a mix of explosives, one of inorganic nature, with a nitrate base, like amonal or amosal [or ANFO], and the second, hexogen, as a multiplier of the detonating effect with the objective of increasing the destructive power, according to the information provided this Saturday by the Ministry of Interior through the General Directors Office of the Police and Civil Guard. The hexogen, which is a high power explosive, has been employed in several occasions since 1994 by the terrorist organisation ETA as charge as well as in detonators.
LD (Europa Press) Since the attack, the specialists of the General Offices of the Scientific Police and the Technicians in Explosives Deactivation (TEDAX) have collected +200 samples in the affected area, which are being processed.

Why is this so important? Because the explosive used in 3/11 is still unknown, and according to the main expert on explosives present that day at Atocha station, it was used a high brisance one, such as hexogen.
For instance, amonium nitrate has an approximate detonating speed, related to power and brisance (fragmenting capacity), of 4000 meters per second, Goma-2 ECO 5300 m/s, Tytadin 50 6500 m/s, TNT 6900 m/s and pure hexogen 8300 m/sec.
After such big discussion among the Black Pawns, the private citizens that are investigating the 3/11 massacre, on explosive composition, explosive power, brisance and the effects of the shock wave in metal sheets... is ETA sending a message inside another message to the Zapatero government?

Indeed last months efforts have contributed to an increase in people thinking that the truth about 3/11 is not known, now reaching seven of ten Spaniards. The Justice, Parliament and Police loose confidence, which are close or into single digit values.
The confidence of the Spaniards in the will of the Zapatero government to fully investigate the massacre shrinks, with only the group of people between 45-64 years old, majoritarily thinking so, which well portrays the age group that supports Socialism in Spain. Finally it is especially shameful for our Third Branch that not even the Socialist voters think the 3/11 trial will clarify anything.

I haven't published the temporary conclusion of this issue yet:
Thousands of donations from Spain and abroad.
The two police officers jailed for talking to EL MUNDO go home for Christmas after collecting the CEP their bails.
The two civil servants from the Police jailed for talking to the newspaper EL MUNDO have been released this Sunday, after collecting the bail of 150,000 euro that judge Juan Del Olmo imposed to each one of them. The collection carried out by the Spanish Police Confederation (CEP) [a police union] provoked a massive response, with donations coming from all corners of Spain, from the European Union and even from Latin America, pointed out to LIBERTAD DIGITAL Rodrigo Gavilán. After remaining in Alcalá-Meco prison for 24 days, the police officers that helped to uncover the Goma-2 trafficking plot inside the Police, will stay for Christmas Eve with their family, as it was the objective of the CEP. The Ministry of Interior, however, continues its harassment campaign and had suspended them.
--------------------------------------
By J Aguilar,
It is a nice Christmas tale. The CEP police union collected the first amount, 150,000 euro, in a few days, and came to pay it in order to free its associated, inspector Jesús Parrilla. However, he refused to leave prison if agent Celestino Rivera, associated to SUP pro-socialist police union, remained there. Therefore, CEP set the objective of reaching 300,000 euro collected before Christmas Eve. It seemed impossible in so short amount of time, however, on Saturday 23rd, a businessman, reader of EL MUNDO newspaper, offered to add the remaining 70,000 euro. A Caja Madrid branch office was opened on Sunday only to pay the bails. The checks were on Judge Del Olmos table that same day.
Now both police officers have the problem of feeding their families while they are suspended for defending the goodwill Spaniards from this National-Socialist regime.

The guys stepping on that burning C-4 are lucky to still have all their toes. God watches out for children and idiots.
You carefully stick a thin knife blade between the two plastic halves of the body and twist. With a little work it pops right apart. The case snaps right back together when you are done.
Does Cemtex use Hexogen in it? I'm ignorant as to that explosive. The reason I'm asking, we all know who supplies Cemtex in the world.
You betcha,very effective defensive weapon.
Imagine 100 1/2" steel balls powered by a pound of C-4 (may be off on
exact details)
Overzealous interpretation of counter-mine treaties by military judge advocates caused them to collect all of ours in Afghanistan in 2002.
The odd thing is, the US didn't sign the treaty, and the treaty only bans booby-trap emplacement of the mine, but the military lawyers never miss a chance to do the enemy's work for him.
And yeah, we captured cases and cases of Iranian-made claymore copies; unmarked stuff made for terrorists. The lawyers' pals.

I presume this points to complicity of the Basques in the bombings, which is presumably why the Socialist government has been so eager to do a coverup. Basques and Muslims working together would not be at all surprising.
That's what I thought at first-that it was Spanish dynamite stolen from a native mine. Then I heard it was titadine, a French dynamite popular with ETA. Now, if you believe El Mundo, it was an ANFO/RDX mixture. There's also some confusion about the origins and techniques used for the timers. What can I say, except the Spaniards themselves don't seem to be that confident about the official version.
Sorry, but the Basque people do not have love for Muslims. Someone at ETA who has a college degree in chemistry may have "cooked up" an RDX-based explosive on a homemade basis. I'm surprised many terrorist groups have not tried to use explosives based on ammonium nitrate fertilizer mixed with fuel oil, an explosive that has spectacular results (if you remember the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 and the first World Trade Center attack in 1993).
Not the Basque people, but the Basque terrorists. For whatever reasons, there has been a good deal of cooperation between Islamic terrorists and European Marxist terrorists. They are very far from agreeing with each other, yet the leftists and the Islamists have been working together on many occasions.
This all looks like that Gen. Petain conspiracy jibberish about the OK City bombing. I think the info they had after the attack and the months following was correct. N. African jihadis did it with the stolen dynamite. There's nothing to this, but buzzwords and mystery.
Guess who is providing the Semtex? That is a Soviet made product. So, our red star and sickle buddies are still alive and well in western Europe.

EL MUNDO tells something about that the hexogen detected is a component of RDX or Semtex that could have been purchased in Eastern Europe before the so called "truce".
ETA has an effective supplying network that from Southern France reaches the Balkans and Eastern Europe, and in occasions they contact Middle East groups.

J Aguilar
The old eastern block manufactured Cemtex - a Soviet version of C-4 (at least something like it). Known as a plastique, the material is commonly used by terrorist networks, and Soviet made explosive devices - Like the American PETN, which is virtually everywhere as a propellant and an explosive.
