This document apparently contains an alleged admission of responsibility by ETA regarding the March 2004 attacks. Via Rebelión, in Spanish.

The gist of it is that La Vanguardia and El Periodico de Catalunya omit a paragraph that El Pais misquotes. The original apparently says "the armed actions of 11 March", while El Pais trascribes "the attacks of 11 March".

I have found at least one comment on an online discussion board gleefully pointing out that the fact that 11 March is mentioned is bad for Zapatero.

guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper

At the very least this is being played to the fullest by the Spanish right, and with the veracity of the document in question, this could backfire.  I pointed to the right in general, but the AVT looks like a damn good suspect for a forger, and one suspects that they migt have contacts in the Guardia Civil to plant the text.
