first of all, ever heard how americans pick up foreign news...not to say anything hurtfull or something, but i heard this thing from this research done in america which said that most people have like no clue what happens in the world outside of america...don't know if its true....but that could cause that they didn't hear about the terrorist attack in spain. Although they probably have heard about this because the word terrorism is in it. Anyway's yeah ive heard of it (dutch) it is really a big deal here in holland, there is almost no other news on tv then that. Almost 200 people died, but they are now also suspecting al quada, really horrible whomever did this. If it was the ETA it was totally stupid, who is going to kill 200 people of his/her own home country, even if they want to get rid of their country........But i doubt it was al quaida, why would they attack Spain, Spain was never really on the surface of any attack to the middle east, they could then better like attack britain or holland........

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot I live in the <i>fake</i> world, because outside the <i>real</i> world, there is clearly another option. :rolleyes: But ya, I heard about a madrid, it's a real shame that this kind of stuff happens.

If this turns political in anyway, I will close it.</i>

laMM: Trust me when I say this. We get our news just like everyone else. And if it's news worthy enough, no matter where in the world it happens, we hear about. Regardless of if people actually watch the news, that's different.

I did hear about it, and it's terrible. My girlfriend is studying abroad in Europe, which I'm not all that thrilled about to begin with, but then when I hear about terrorists and such, it only makes matters so much worse.

Dude, anyone who reads a paper or who watches the news almost instantly knows what's going on outside "America." Wow, whoever did that research is ignorant.

LaMM, that was the most rediculous comment ever . . .

I heard about it as well, terrible news . . . my prayers are with those who perished and those that remain who lived with them.

I regret to say that I've been without TV and PC for awhile and haven't seen anything on it. MY Prayers are in a package deal with Cucumba's.

with enough propoganda and drives put into the media and society, you can get anyone to do anything, and besides, these people are fanatics and will stop at nothing, that's the problem of terrorism, which is about to flood the whole world like a swarm of super locusts
