In a statement sent to al-Hayat(London Arabic Newpaper(?)), the Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades who claimed responsibility for the Spanish bombings, called on its "European units" to stop all operations.
The way Reuters typically puts out its web version, you usually get to the best material on the second page towards the bottom. That's where I find much of my material for this blog..the last few paragraphs of articles are usually a good place to hide otherwise embarassing facts, or in this case, speculation.
The statement to al-Hayat reportedly reads:
link to articleWE WANT BUSH TO WIN
The statement said it supported President Bush in his reelection campaign, and would prefer him to win in November rather than the Democratic candidate John Kerry, as it was not possible to find a leader "more foolish than you (Bush), who deals with matters by force rather than with wisdom."
In comments addressed to Bush, the group said:
"Kerry will kill our nation while it sleeps because he and the Democrats have the cunning to embellish blasphemy and present it to the Arab and Muslim nation as civilization."
"Because of this we desire you (Bush) to be elected."
You make the call. Truth is truly stranger than fiction. If this is indeed truth.
