Spanish bombs

In the debate over whether it was ETA (as the Spanish seem to be convinced -- for good reasons if today's Economist is right) or Al Quaeda I've seen no-one (I haven't looked very hard) mention it was on March 11th, exactly six months after September 11th. I don't know if this has any significance.

Update: My girlfriend has just informed me that it was on the front-page of today's Metro, read by millions of people. And the Sun. Another four million people. I'll go quietly.
