"Spain, who would have thunk it?"

They remember the Reconquista and the fleets of Suleiman.

No fools they.

Oh, I know..but oddly enough, it was the Moorish invasion, and influence in Spain that helped to form and define Spanish culture....but that's NOT today's Arab..no sir....BTW..remember that a last year, Spain and GB almost came to blows about a hunk of rock next to Gilbratar..cynic that I am, I'd suspect that some accomodation has been worked out...I'd look for Gib to return to GB/Spanish dual status, after the war is over...
