#1 It was not tens of thousands but over a million. There is quite simple gauge for a demonstration in Madrid: the capacity of the Santiago Bernbeu stadium (100,00 seats). Governmnt pretended it was only 250,00 demonstrators (last time it told it was under 100,000) and that doesn't hold water (see above).

Now the ~~Tass agency~~ had let it into a ùmere tens of thousands.

And it was not only about ETA: there were lots of placards telling "We want to know" since the more it is known about the MAdrid bombings the more itr looks like there was something shady in it: for instance from 40 suspects, thirty four were police confidents. How can it be that tghe police didn't learn what it was happenning? Or could it be that the police (did I mention that the police people who controlled the confidents are socialists?) decided to not prevent it? A thing who could explain the speed and coordination of the socialist propaganda machine in exploiting the events.

#2 Interesting, JFM. That incident raised a lot of red flags for me ... it will be a good thing if it did so for Spaniards as well, even if belatedly.
