Deadly bombings strike Algerian train station

ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) -- Two bombs in quick succession rocked a train station in Algeria on Sunday, killing several people, including a French engineer and Algerian firefighters and soldiers who responded to the first blast, a security official said.

The security official said 13 people died, but French media are reporting that 12 have been killed.

The first bomb killed a Frenchman working on a renovation project at the station in Beni Amrane, about 60 miles east of the capital, the security official said. The second bomb hit minutes later, as security officials and rescue workers arrived at the scene. Both devices appeared to be remote-controlled.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility. Algeria's al-Qaeda affiliate, al-Qaeda in Islamic North Africa, is known to be active in the area.

Muhammad had a rougher time controlling the media than today's terrorists do. Now Muslims just lie, and the press laps it up. There aren't five journalists in the Free World with the will and wisdom to expose Islam.
