There were 546 reported incidents of Islamophobia in Spain in 2017, according to a report released Friday by the Citizens Platform Against Islamophobia (PCI). [ ]
The most frequent type of incident cited were those of defamation, slander, and libel, in which Muslim men were accused of being violent, sexist, chauvinists, pedophiles, backwards, intolerant, or terrorists, while Muslim women were characterized as being submissive, oppressed, ignorant, or backwards.
The second leading category of incidents was those of discrimination or negation of rights. The report used the European Unions definition of discrimination, citing it as the conduct, action, or omission by which a person is treated less favorably than another in a comparable situation and when an apparently neutral provision, criterion, or practice places people at a particular disadvantage with respect to others.
Other types of attack include harassment, organized campaigns, fake news, verbal and written threats, and property damage.
The rising trends in incidents occurred both online and on the streets. Of the 546 cases, 160 of them occurred offline and 386 of them occurred online on social media platforms and various news sites.
According to the report, Catalonia leads in the latter category with the most number of Islamophobic incidents reported in the last year. Of the 160 total incidents that occurred offline, 31.88 percent of them occurred in Catalonia.

Probably a wise idea .... they lived under it for a couple of centuries .... they understand what Mad Mo hell really is.
If Europe still had soccer hooligans, they could beat the crap out of the Citizens Platform Against Islamophobia while shouting Allah akbar! It would drive the pussy-hat cops crazy investigating the incident.

In other words, telling the truth about Islam.
Spain is the number one target of the Islamic irredentists since their expulsion in 1492.
The Moroccan extremists are the worst, followed by the Algerian moslems. Those are the ones to watch if there is terrorism in Spain.
