Van swerves into crowds in Barcelona : 13 reported dead and more than 50 injured

[The SC]

I know it very well, I have lived in Barcelona for couple of months.
Those two side streets are there for taxi, police, and special permit cars.
I couldn't take my car there. there's a huge underground parking at the beginning of the street but very expensive.
I used to park few blocks away and walk.

The Ramblas is usually very crowded in the summer.. happily this happened in the end of summer, otherwise maybe the death toll would have been much higher..

Yesterday Spanish media reported 2 dead, and today 13..

Sad to hear... 13 is too many.

what about those countries ??

He mentions those countries for having close to, if not zero, terrorists attacks due to not having open borders and pro immigration (mainly from Islamic countries) in comparison with western European/EU countries that do.

I have no Idea why Spain has been targeted this time..

RIP to the dead. May the injured recover soon

This may sound like Victim blaming but Europeans will continue to suffer like this till they keep on electing left wing politically correct liberal govts who choose to bury their heads in the sand rather than tackle the problem head on

Indeed the Barcelona attacks were savage and barbaric.

 

[KRAIT]

ISIS claimed the responsibility.

I've posted a link to the source, though if I had found one in English I'd put it here instead for you to read, all I have now is an Hebrew source of which for obvious reason you won't be able to read. http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-5004497,00.html.
For those who are willing you can use Google translate on the entire article but don't expect good results - Hebrew and Google translate aren't "a bird of a flock" so to say...
