Welcome

On March 11th, 2004, four commuters were attacked at Madrid. Ten wagons exploded leaving 192 dead people and injuring almost 2000.

All over the world it was believed that it was a terrorist attack perpetrated by AlQaeda in retaliation to Spain's role at Iraq, supporting the military action carried out by USA and UK.

Three days later, spaniards were to vote in an elections day. As a result of those attacks, the ruling party was moved from government since many voters believed they had been lied by their government because the first suspicious was ETA instead of AlQaeda.

Three years later a trial begun against 29 indicted; hearings took over 4 months and after another 4 months, the Court ruling sentenced by october the 31st in 2007.

Shortly after the attacks, some journalists from the second most read newspaper in Spain begun publishing articles revealing serious doubts about the official investigations carried out by Prosecutors.

Since then, many people in Spain are asking for the truth of those attacks.

Among all the journalists who are carrying out independent investigations, there is one whose method could be followed by anyone who wanted to dedicate their time to it.

This man, who wasn't a journalist before 3/11 but a Telecommunications Engineer leading his own company, took the official documents available in the Internet and found out many contradictions inside.

With just a few documents he could show many terrible contradictions and a lot of people could see by themselves that his findings were true.

He begun to publish his investigations in a blog by October 2005 and lots of normal citizens went there to share efforts in order to seek for the truth.

Several months later, after comparing the investigations with a chess game, that group of people decided to call themselves "Black Pawns" because in a chess game the White Player moves first and in 3/11 the first movement was the bombings, so terrorists would be the White Player while people wanting the truth would be the Black Player.

I'm a black pawn and this blog is dedicated to show to the rest of the world what's happening in Spain about those terrible attacks.

This blog is NOT an official Black Pawns blog, it's just MY intent to send an SQS (*) to the world regarding 3/11 Madrid Bombings.

I'm not a native English, so I beg your pardons for my mistakes.
