"War on Terror" or War on Truth?

Dear Ewen MacAskill,

In “Iraq war seen as biggest threat to peace” (Ewen MacAskill, diplomatic editor, Guardian, Wednesday June 14, 2006) you write:

One of the sharpest declines in support for the US has been in Spain. Only 23% of the Spaniards polled expressed positive views of the US, down from 41% last year. Even though Madrid suffered a large death toll from an al-Qaida attack two years ago, only about one in four supports the "war on terrorism".

Earlier this year, the Associated Press reported:

Madrid train bombings probe finds no al-Qaeda link
MADRID (AP) — A two-year probe into the Madrid train bombings concludes the Islamic terrorists who carried out the blasts were homegrown radicals acting on their own rather than at the behest of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda network, two senior intelligence officials said. (...) The intelligence chief said there were no phone calls between the Madrid bombers and al-Qaeda and no money transfers. The Western official said the plotters had links to other Islamic radicals in Western Europe, but the plan was hatched and organized in Spain. "This was not an al-Qaeda operation," he said. "It was homegrown."

Maybe you have new evidence to write “Madrid suffered a large death toll from an al-Qaida attack two years ago” ?

If you do, will you present it to your readers? If not, will you publish a correction?

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards,
