They enlisted the help of the Jews to get rid of the Muslims. When that was done, they enlisted Tomás de Torquemada to get rid of the Jews.

Yes, 1492 is when the Kingdom of Spain issued and edict to expel all Jews from the Iberian peninsula and the Spanish Inquisition isn't exactly a bright spot on Spain and the Church...

Under Sharia Law in Spain.

Jews were basically 2nd class citizens and Christians 3rd class citizens. In over 500 years of brutal and misery of the islamic occupation.

When the Moors were finally expelled - people were looking for payback.

Just like we saw against Nazi collaborators in France in WWII in modern history.

The Inquisition was an ecclesiastical court. It had no jurisdiction over Jews.

That’s an oversimplification; many Christians felt the Jewish population was in cahoots with the Arabs.

And it’s been a stain on Spain ever since the Alhambra decree.

The Jews served as the slave traders and tax collectors for the Moors.
