Murder in Madrid

At least 60 people have been killed in commuter-train bombings. The Basque separatists of ETA are the prime suspects - "The Limey" is thrilled, I'm sure - but officials have not ruled out Al-Qaida involvement.

Update: the death toll is now 131.

Update II: Barcelona-based Iberian Notes has much, much more. They're convinced ETA is responsible.

CNN says 173 have been killed, and over 600 injured.
