#2 all you need to know about the origins of that mosque --when Arabs invaded in the early 8th century, they tore down the church of Saint Vincent and began building their great mosque...

There is a generic response to be used whenever Moslems demand this or that in the name of the Koran, Peace, and Past Glory. Nuts!

Is that in reference to the (dreaded) Crusades, to getting your arses handed to ya by King Ferdinand, or more recent "confrontations" like train bombings in Madrid? Methinks the only "confrontation" the Spaniards should bury is the one presented to them by that train bombing.

#8 And ironically, Aisha, mother of the last Moorish Sultan Boabdil settled the Granada matter long ago..
