"Up to two million people have taken part in a demonstration against terror in the Spanish capital Madrid a day after bomb attacks killed nearly 200.

"Spanish editorial writers are demanding answers before voters go to the polls on Sunday, because the culprits' identity might influence people's choice of party.
"The ruling Popular Party campaigned on a hardline stance against ETA but also defied popular opposition by supporting the US-led war against Iraq -- which may have triggered an attack by al-Qaeda.
"Thursday's attack was the worst act of terrorism in modern Spanish history and the deadliest in Europe since the Lockerbie airliner bomb killed 270 in 1988."
