The type of explosives confiscated from the ETA was not even close to the type used in the attack:

"In snowy pre-dawn darkness, the Civil Guard stopped a small truck and found 1,100 lbs of potassium chloride compound, 66 lbs of dynamite and 99 yards of core fuse and an electrical detonator."

>>But it sounds like the explosives were obtained in Spain through Spanish sources..<< what I read somewhere (German press most probably, quoting some kind of a journalistic grapewine) that the stuff is a routine in construction and that (certainly just a hypothesis) it could have been collected through a series of small,below-the-alert-level steals on construction sites. Id give it a C (I mean for the procurement mode)
