(回答先: 事前情報？スペイン内務省は数日前にテロリスト攻撃に対する防衛線を張っていた 投稿者 HAARP 日時 2004 年 3 月 18 日 06:18:17)
こちらは警戒を緩めていたという話：ガーディアン
スペイン内務省はETAに対しては警戒を事前に強め、「イスラム系テロリスト」には警戒を緩めていたということになるのだろうか？？
どさくさに紛れて、「ヨーロッパ」の警察組織の相互協力を強めるべきなどとも書いてある。
EU警察も視野に入っているのかも知れない。
ここでは関係ないが、アイルランドを議長国とするEU憲法の採択期限は「6月30日」と報道されている。
CPAのイラク統治権委譲の期限も6月30日。7月からはイラクの国連実験統治とEU警察超国家が始まるのだろうか。
311はその下準備だった？

Spain accused of easing up on terror watch
Signs emerge of serious intelligence and security failures before bombings

Spain cut the number of police units responsible for watching radical Islamists in the months before last week's Madrid bombings, reducing numbers by up to a half in some cities and sending them back to ordinary police work, it was claimed yesterday.
A report in the newspaper El Mundo emerged amid numerous signs of serious police and intelligence failures in the run-up to the attacks that killed 201 commuters.
They include allegations that:
・Spanish police possessed phone taps linking a prime suspect in the bombings, the Moroccan Jamal Zougam, with Mohamed Fizazi, a jailed leader of the May bombings in Casablanca, Morocco;
・Arguments between Morocco and Spain over the island of Perejil, fishing rights and immigration had seriously hampered coordination on shared terrorism threats;
・Paperwork that should have allowed police to trace the sale in Spain of the explosives used in the attacks has reportedly gone missing; and
・Spanish police knew that Mr Zougam was closely connected to Salaheddine Benyaiche, another north African Islamist also imprisoned in Morocco for the Casablanca attacks.
It has also been revealed that of six other people now being hunted by Spanish police in connection with the blasts, the majority were already well-known for radical Islamist connections.
Last night, a Spanish interior ministry spokesman would neither confirm nor deny the reported reduction in the number of police devoted to watching Islamists.
But observers believe that a picture of missed intelligence opportunities and a failure to keep tabs on key figures is now emerging in the aftermath of the bombings.
The connection with Fizazi was revealed yesterday by a French lawyer, Jean-Charles Brisard, representing September 11 victims, who has access to Spanish police records.
In a phone call with a suspected leader of a Madrid-based al-Qaida cell that Spanish police monitored in August 2001, Mr Zougam said he had met Fizazi.
"On Friday, I went to see Fizazi and I told him that if he needed money we could help him with our brothers," Mr Zougam says, according to Mr Brisard.
Fizazi was one of 87 people sentenced in Morocco last August for their part in the Casablanca bombings last May which killed 45 people, including 12 suicide bombers.
He was ordered to serve 30 years in prison. He previously preached at a mosque in Hamburg frequented by some of the September 11 hijackers.
Mr Zougam's connections to militant Islamists were well known to both Spanish and French police and to intelligence services in Morocco. His Madrid apartment had been searched in 2001, turning up a videotape that included an interview with Osama bin Laden.
His half-brother Mohamed Chaoui, who has also been arrested, also features on Spanish police wiretaps of the suspected Madrid cell, according to Mr Brisard.
So far police have arrested three Moroccans, including Mr Zougam and Mr Chaoui, and two Indians in their search for the bombers.
Last night, police in the Basque city of San Sebastian said they had detained an Algerian man who allegedly talked about a terrorist attack in Madrid two months before it happened.
Another Algerian named Said Arel is also reportedly wanted by police, along with five other Moroccans, all of whom are well known to Spanish police but have disappeared from Madrid in recent days.
Police sources said no international arrest warrants had been issued, despite reports that many of the bombers may have fled the country. Another avenue for investigating the bombings - tracing the route followed by the Spanish-made Goma 2 explosives used between the factory door and the Madrid train bombs - has reportedly been hampered because the paper trail it should have left behind is incomplete.
The 100 to 150 kilos of explosives used in the bombs may have been exported to Saudi Arabia, Syria or Mauritania before being smuggled back into the country via Morocco across the Strait of Gibraltar, police sources said.
Another area of failure appears, according to Aboubakr Jamai, editor of the Casablanca-based Le Journal, to be political rows that have prevented Morocco and Spain coordinating anti-terrorism efforts properly.
"There was little cooperation between the Moroccan and Spanish authorities because of political disputes between the two countries over Perejil island and fishing rights," he said.
In an effort to regain the initiative in the fight against Islamist terror groups, anti-terrorism chiefs from around Europe will travel to Madrid this week to study implications of the bombings.
The German chancellor, Gerhard Schr單er, played down talk of creating a "European CIA" yesterday, saying the priority was to boost cooperation between existing intelligence services. Belgium, Austria and the Netherlands have all called for the creation of some kind of EU intelligence body.
The French president, Jacques Chirac, claimed the major intelligence agencies in Europe had over the past 18 months set aside previous reluctance to work together in the face of the new threat.
But one Italian terrorism expert yesterday warned that coordination between European countries was far from efficient, with important information sometimes failing to make it from one European police force to another.
