Suspected Madrid Bomber Indicted for 9/11 Attacks- Anyone surprised?

From FoxNews---MADRID, Spain — Spanish officials made a direct link between the Sept. 11, 2001 attack on the United States and the March 11 attack on trains in Madrid by indicting a Moroccan fugitive believed to have participated in both terror cases.

Judge Baltasar Garzon said Amer Azizi (search) helped organize a meeting in northeast Spain in July 2001 that key plotters in the U.S. attacks, including suspect suicide pilot Mohamed Atta (search), used to finalize details.

Azizi was initially included in an indictment Garzon handed down in September against Usama bin Laden (search) and 34 other terror suspects. Azizi was charged then with belonging to a terrorist organization.

The new indictment charges Azizi with actually helping plan the Sept. 11 attacks. Garzon accused Azizi of multiple counts of murder — "as many deaths and injuries as were committed" on Sept. 11.

If true, not surprising. If false, not surprising. There are enough terrorists to go around; they don't really need to use the same ones for everything.

By the way: the same news is on BBC as well as Fox. I always think it worthwhile to check some other source, since Fox jumps the gun on rumors so often...

BBC jumps the gun as well but they agree with your POV more often so you don't see it

No, Theo is right, it's always better to read more than one news source. It's even better if you read news sources that don't agree with your POV, as well.

I agree with that. But the statement that fox jumps the gun is not unique to fox.
