Islamic Invasion of Spain Renewed

Muslims invaded Spain in 711 and conquered almost all of that country. They held Spain for centuries, until the Christian Reconquest finally drove out the last of the Muslims in 1492. The Reconquest has always been regarded as a glorious chapter in Spanish history, but its current far-left, socialist government seems to be on the other side.
Spain’s government had already given 500,000 illegal aliens, mostly Muslims, legal status in that country. That was the context for yesterday’s attack by Moroccans on the Spanish territory of Ceuta, which Bill Glahn wrote about here. Suddenly, thousands of Moroccans swam or boated around Spain’s fence into Cueta. Why did this happen all at once? They seem to have gotten word that the Spanish authorities wouldn’t stop them.
As usual in these cases, the “migrants” were nearly all military-age men. This wasn’t a migration, it was an invasion, as in 711. And Spain’s government seems to be on board with it.

The socialists and communists in Spain certainly bear some of the blame for Spain’s predicament, but the globalists (whether in Spain or elsewhere) bear a large portion of the blame also. The European Union is inherently tyrannical in its demands that member nations throw open their borders, and long-time EU policy has been driven by globalism, the dominant ideology today amongst the western ruling class and billionaire oligarchs.
The goal of globalism is the erasure of European civilization and the destruction of her peoples. The Muslims are just the particular weapon that the elites have chosen for this act of civilizational homicide.

Older readers may remember when the news aired Osama Bin Laden’s videos, the Al-Qaeda leader spoke of today’s country of Spain as “Al-Andalus.” That is the Arabic name for Spain and Portugal, the Iberian nations under Islamic rule for nearly eight hundred years, from 711 to 1492 AD. Finally, Christian Spain kicked them out under the reign of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella the same year Columbus sailed for the New World.
Bin Laden referred to Spain by that name because once the believers – the sons of Allah – control a land, it is theirs forever. To Bin Laden and millions of other devout Muslims, Spain is still rightfully theirs. And they are acting upon that basis to turn this long held dream into reality. The West had better wake up, because the soldiers of Allah are nothing if not determined.

Indeed. Muslims, like Democrats, never forget what side they are on.

Spain, like many other European nations, has been captured by a hostile elite – a ruling class who have betrayed their own birthright to the ideology of globalism. The leader of Spain was recently photographed with Alex Soros, the son of billionaire trouble-maker George Soros. Alex is rumored to be even more fanatical than his father about transforming Europe into something ordinary people won’t recognize. Starting to get the picture? Hope so, because it sure isn’t pretty.
To use an analogy, the Muslims and other military-age men swarming ashore at Ceuta are the murder weapon, but the globalists are the ones holding it. They’re the ones pulling the trigger of that particular gun.

Fortunately Alex Soros is marrying a 40-year-old women, and so is removing his genes from the gene pool. Doesn’t help us much, but future generations will profit from it.
