NOTHING TODAY

Studying for finals and all...

But just one thing:
Spain's interior minister Saturday announced the arrest of five suspects in the Madrid bombings, including three Moroccans.

The other two are Spaniards of "Hindu" origin, minister Angel Acebes said.

The five were arrested in connection with a cell phone inside an explosives-packed gym bag found on one of the bombed commuter trains.

The suspects "could be related to Moroccan extremist groups," the minister said. "But we should not rule out anything. Police are still investigating all avenues. This opens an important avenue."
Wait a minute . . . arrests!?!?

[andrewsullivan] Don't the Spanish understand? They're at war! There are no "arrests" in war! Why aren't detainee camps being set up in the Azores? Clearly they are morally unserious about terrorism. [/andrewsullivan]
