9/11 - 3/11 Link
From FOX News:Spanish officials made a direct link between the Sept. 11, 2001 attack on the United States and the March 11 attack on trains in Madrid by indicting a Moroccan fugitive believed to have participated in both terror cases.
Judge Baltasar Garzon said Amer Azizi helped organize a meeting in northeast Spain in July 2001 that key plotters in the U.S. attacks, including suspect suicide pilot Mohamed Atta, used to finalize details.
Azizi was initially included in an indictment Garzon handed down in September against Usama bin Laden and 34 other terror suspects. Azizi was charged then with belonging to a terrorist organization.
The new indictment charges Azizi with actually helping plan the Sept. 11 attacks. Garzon accused Azizi of multiple counts of murder — "as many deaths and injuries as were committed" on Sept. 11.
Matt's Chat
Another one down...Mark's Remarks
I think this hold up even under the (snicker, guffaw) tight standards of the Palm Tree arguments, Matt.
The sad part is that Spain caved. They have encouraged more of these attacks. They will be partly responsible for a rise in terror, because they did nothing but turn tail and run. I stand by that statement.
