For the first time in six centuries the muezzin's cry echoed over Spanish Granada with the inauguration in that city of a new mosque last week. The call to prayer hadn't been heard in the old capital of Moorish civilization since the last Muslim king was expelled by Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492.

...And they're going to be sorry that they let them back in.

Ain't gonna be as easy to drive them out a second time.

Better hope there's another "El Cid" on the horizon.

I'm positive that the Spanish will be rueing the day that they allowed this. And not in the distant future.......silly, silly Spaniards. Just invite the weasels into the henhouse. Hola!

The Spanish Inquisition? I didn't expect them at all.

Bring back the Spanish Inquisition!

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

All they have to do is read fundamentalist Islamic moaning about getting kicked out in the first place. They still hold a grudge and still believe that every inch taken for Islam is irretrievably Islamic.
