MADRID (Reuters) - Police arrested seven suspected Islamic militants in raids across Spain on Monday to foil a planned bomb attack on the High Court, judicial sources said.

 

 

 

The arrests came seven months after train bombs killed 191 people in Madrid.

 

The seven suspects, including four Algerians and one Moroccan, were arrested in the southern region of Andalusia, the Mediterranean city of Valencia and Madrid.

 

Further arrests could be made in the coming hours as part of the operation against a radical and violent Muslim network, the Interior Ministry said in a statement.

 

Crusading Judge Baltasar Garzon ordered the arrests as part of his inquiry into Islamic militant cells in Spain.

 

The suspects had been in contact with other individuals in Europe, the United States and Australia, the statement said.

 

Well those voters who put in the Socialists thinking that it would reduce risks of terror attacks sure got their vote's worth.

 

For the record, I don't believe that most of those who switched votes did it with the "Pulling out of Iraq = saftey" mentality. But this should be a blow to those that DO have the mentality (Spanish or otherwise)

It SHOULD make their current gov't think twice about its current path...

 

But it probably won't.

Is this honestly the best response you have to this?
