#2 ..reiterating the government's goal to combat and end terrorism.

It's only terrorism, for Heaven's sake. Just appease them like ya'll did the last time.

#5 JFM, How much warning time before the blast? Why so many wounded? Was it a crowded plaza?

#6 Hmm. In the 3/11 subway attack they put the explosives in planted backpacks, too. Same method, same people? And this time Eta claimed responsibility. This lends credence to recent claims that the Socialists and police were involved in setting up Azbar's government to influence the election.

They warned beforehand, I don't know by how much. The bomb exploded earlier than announced. Again I don't know by how much and if it could have been a honest mistake (but I suppose that when you warn you also allow for a safety margin) or if if it was deliberate.
