| Morocco: Islamist Militants Flee To Spain |
| 2006-10-30 |
| Militants with the banned Moroccan Islamist group al-Adl al-Ihsan are increasingly fleeing to Spain to survive an ongoing crackdown by Rabat's authorities, Arab daily 'al-Quds al-Arab' reported on Monday. According to the newspaper, many militants are already part of the 50,000-strong Muslim community living in the south of the country, especially in the Murcia region. The group aims to topple Morocco's monarchy and establish an Islamist state. |

| #3 The group aims to topple Morocco's monarchy and establish an Islamist state. But they wouldn't mind to establish islamic state in al Andalus instead, where they are received with open arms as "political refugees". Anyway, this would lead to a paradoxical situation in a not too distant future where Western Europe would be a part of the taliban-style khaliphate, while Morocco and Tunisia won't. |
