Madrid, Spain (AHN) - The Spanish Supreme Court decided on Thursday to acquit five bombers in the 2004 Madrid commuter train blast which killed 191 people and injured 1,800.

An Egyptian, Rabei Osman, was acquitted due to double-jeopardy provisions, he has already been sentenced to an eight-year prison term in Italy. The court said there was insufficient evidence to charge him with mass murder.

The court likewise upheld the acquittal of Basel Ghalyoun, Muhammad Almallah Dabas, Abdelilah el Fadual el Akil and Raul Gonzalez, all of whom had convictions ranging from five to 12 year prison terms.

The sentence of several suspects were reduced, while Antonio Toro was convicted of swapping the explosives used in the attack for drugs and money and sentenced to four years. A second convicted mastermind, Othman el Gnaoui, was cleared of falsification, but was kept in prison for more serious charges.

Now where will they show up with a bomb?....What the hells the matter with the idiots of socialist Europe?

If Obama gets elected he might have ex Gitmo detainees in his cabinet.

You probably have the timeline nailed ~ Leftwingtards (aka Socialists in Spain) planned it. Islamofascists did the job.

Same thing with the Anthrax attack in the US. It's pretty cear that a fairly large segment of American Leftwingtard professionals planned it, got the stuff they needed, and then passed it along to the Islamofascists to make the hit.

They've probably done it this way in other situations as well.

Time to call Barbara Hatch Rosenberg in for a talk; maybe even Obama's little friends too.

Mass murderers in the new Europe now get lighter sentences than the eco-terrorists here in the US...unbelievable!!!

I would not have believed this travesty possible.

A report a day or two ago said Spain’s economy was collapsing.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer former ally.

Spain is Osama’s BIT*H

I so agree....and in my humble opinion...we can look at Europe and see what's ahead for our dear country...all with the deliberate help of our own government. What a bunch of thieving, deceivers we have allowed to get into positions of power...in our Congress, courts...you name it...it's appalling.

After this second sentence on 3/11, only three people are convicted regarding the Madrid Train Bombinngs, Jamal Zougham and Otman El Ganoui, both Muslims; and the Christian miner Trashorras, for supplying the explosives. The rest were convicted for belonging to a terror organization or trafficking with explosives, but not for the attack itself.

Neither Zougham nor El Ganoui were Islamists.

Many Spaniards still don't swallow the official version on the attacks, full of contradictions, and have constituted themselves in an association whose members examine all the official and unofficial documents and information on the case, the Peones Negros. You can check a video on the issue here.

Furthermore, you may check the contradictions on the case here: Search @ Freerep or just clicking on my name.

Regarding Aznar's administration on ETA as perpetrators, you can check this:

Finally, regarding the evidence against Rabei Osman, the Egyptian, you got this:

We report, you decide.

unless someone makes a new movie soon that last line will be lost on most here..

[sheik yerbouty]

All bought and paid for with the blood of the innocent..

[J Aguilar]

3/11, an attack without suicide bombers, is based in a previous one: the Bologna massacre.

They have used the same tactics, although the Italians were lucky for having a truly independent third branch.

[Little Ray]

I don’t have an effin’ clue.
Was this an Islamacist op, an ETA op, or an internal coup?

[muawiyah]

So, a conclusion here might be that Aznar brought in Italian commies to make sure the job got done.

[Travis McGee]

I knew the folks I care about here would get it.

[J Aguilar]

Good question. The attack has no Islamic characteristics, as you can read here:

3/11: The Non-Existent Islamist Character of the Atrocity

ETA did participate in 3/11, although not as perpetrator, but in a previous disinformation campaign, as you can read here:

3/11: The Disinformation Campaign

I think it was an inside job, probably carried out by mercenaries under cover of officials of the Spanish security forces. Surprisingly, Frank Gaffney Jr. pointed out something very similar before we knew a lot of evidence suggesting this, as you can read here:

Spain’s “Terrorgate”?

[reagan_fanatic]

This isn't just acquiescing to terrorism, this is dropping your pants and bending over.

Woe be to Europe if they don't wake up!

[J Aguilar]

No, because the Italian oligarchies behind the Bologna train station massacre are the same to whom Socialist Zapatero, the Spanish prime minister after 3/11, gave the control of the Spanish energy giant ENDESA breaking the Rule of Law, as you can read here:

Spain broke law in Endesa bidding, EU court says

Gracias por la informaccion, J Aguilar.

Odio a los sucios que atacaron a su pais.
