MADRID, Spain (AP) - Spain's interior minister Saturday announced the arrest of five suspects in the Madrid bombings, including three Moroccans.

The other two are Spaniards of "Hindu" origin, minister Angel Acebes said.

The five were arrested in connection with a cell phone inside an explosives-packed gym bag found on one of the bombed commuter trains.

The suspects "could be related to Moroccan extremist groups," the minister said. "But we should not rule out anything. Police are still investigating all avenues. This opens an important avenue."

<<<MORE than a thousand people held a protest in Madrid today to blame this week's bombs in the capital on the government's unpopular decision to support the US war on Iraq.>>>

Amazing how the connection of any series of dots - terrorism, forest fires, endangered species, pollution, ozone depletion. Illegal immigrants, corporate greed, unemployment figures- they all lead to the steps of that little white house in Washington DC.

Whoopie-doo, a whole thousand.

The photo in this link is a better reflection of the real sentiment at the latest terrorist sucker punch against innocent people going about their lives.
