El Pais says that extremists plotted attacks across Europe

Well, I suppose we're learning that just because a paper or a politician says it, it isnt necessarily true. Nevertheless this CNN piece summarises all the allegations made against the people arrested in Barcelona last week. Read the piece and draw your own conclusions. Then go back to the post on the Romanian child traffickers from last week and note how the story there has already changed. This is an informant -based story.
