Building of Dutch newspaper publisher attacked with grenade launcher.
2006-11-08
A print division of publisher PCM in Amsterdam was attacked by a rocket launcher last night. The explosive hit the building around 0030 local time. The powerful blast shook the whole building and could be heard in the surroundings. Nobody was hurt in the attack.
Authorities are looking for clues and witnesses as there is no known threat to the publisher. One of the newspapers printed in the building is the "Volkskrant" which is seen as a moderate left wing newspaper.

#3  Funny that it is in the gun-banning EU that rpg are used in terrorist or criminal attacks (three incidents I can think of without searching in France, one in Belgium, now one in Holland)... and not in the "gun violence riddled" USA.

and...??

Any reasons why "The Ranting People" should get attacked?
