CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - The Arabic newspaper Al-Quds al-Arabi said Thursday it had received a claim of responsibility for the Madrid train bombings issued by the Brigade of Abu Hafs al-Masri in the name of al-Qaida.
Like I said above, this brigade has made similar claims in the past - including claiming responsibility for the power outage a while ago in New York (!). Just keep that grain of salt in mind.
And I personally think that a van full of detonators and Arabic texts all over the place is a bit too convenient to show up, but time will tell.
Creepy coincidence is that it took place exactly 2.5 years after 9/11.
