lpv:translated text	"As they deal with the same subject, Questions Nos 2 and 3 will be taken together: What does the Council think about the terrorist attacks in Casablanca which killed 41 people, including a number of Union citizens, and injured many others? Since the attacks took place after the war waged by the United States and its allies in Iraq, does it consider it significant that many of the dead and injured were in an establishment linked to a Member State? What political measures will the Council consider taking in order to avert or limit the danger of such terrorist acts? Question No 2 by Josu Ortuondo Larrea (): Five suicide attacks in Casablanca on 17 May 2003 left 41 people dead and around a hundred injured, including a number of Spanish citizens. The targets included the Casa de España and the Spanish Chamber of Commerce, with another attack taking place near an Italian restaurant. Whilst the Spanish Government denied any link between these attacks and its support for the Iraq war, prominent writers have expressed the opposite view in the Spanish press. Antonio Gala wrote that 'terrorism cannot be fought with terrorism, whether national or international in origin', and F. López Agudín pointed out that 'it was inevitable that an illegal war, a blatant form of state terrorism, would strengthen Islamic terrorism'. Similar opinions have appeared in other European media. Mr Rodríguez Zapatero said: 'I fear that, regrettably, we will be proved right in saying that the most worrying weapon of mass destruction is the hatred and fanaticism which this war could provoke'. As well as condemning these acts and expressing my solidarity with the victims, I would ask the Council whether it has assessed these attacks against European targets? Does it consider the statements which we have all heard from certain heads of government, claiming that the world is safer today and there is less risk of terrorist attack, to be valid? Question No 3 by Camilo Nogueira Román , who is replaced by Josu Ortuondo Larrea ():"@en1
