Bomb Attacks Were Planned in Internet Cafe
(Telegraph-UK) The four bombers are believed to have received weapons training in Pakistan and at al-Qaeda camps in Afghanistan. As many as 1,000 Turks have trained in Islamist terrorist camps in the past decade. Al-Qaeda operatives are believed to have made their way to Turkey to help design the bombs and fuses, picking the targets and planning the missions. They also taught the Turkish cells how to communicate via encrypted messages posted on the Internet.
