One small voice in the proud tradition of FreeBlogging*

For those who don't know, another round of bombings, this time in Casablanca, Morocco. Stories start below. We report on updates from Yahoo! España (Reuters), Le Monde, Libération, Corriere della Sera, Fox News and the Washington Post below.

We'll note, with some bitterness, that the top of the page, earlier today, said "More Al-Qaeda Strikes Likely." Indeed.

Here's an interesting juxtaposition - headlines on Yahoo! Spain:
Al menos 24 muertos y 60 heridos por explosiones en Marruecos
(At least 24 dead and 60 injured by explosions in Morocco)
Al menos 25 muertos en accidente de turistas alemanes en Francia
(At least 25 dead in accident with German tourists in France)

The 25, plus 24 injured compadres were en route to Spain. As for the bombings, the Reuters story on Yahoo! posits multiple attackers with suicide belts but doesn't give a number.
