Black day in Madrid

11 Mar 2004

The cowardly attacks perpetrated this morning in Madrid made 192 dead and 1,400 wounded. While officials remain cautious about the perpetrators, hints point to the terrorist group Al Quaeda.

I'm devastated and disgusted. I hope that humanity will eventually overcome all extremism, notably those which have no respect for human life and know nothing but destruction.

P.S. I find this post from Diego particularly moving: how long must we sing this song? (via Erik.)

Well said. I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Rent a flat in Paris

Going to the City of lights for a short stay? I have a flat to rent in Paris. Roomy (up to 6 people), comfortable, calm, fully furnished, modern, with broadband internet, private terrasse, garden and parking… You'll love it (I did when I lived there!). Visit appartement-jardin-paris.com for more information and booking.
