Fifteen North Africans were arrested in Spain on Monday on suspicion of recruiting volunteers to fight in Iraq and other countries.

Spain’s Interior Ministry said computer material, jihad propaganda and several cell phones were seized during at least five pre-dawn raids throughout Spain. No arms or explosives were discovered.

Thirteen of the 15 were Moroccan and two were from Algeria, according to the statement, which said the group was operating as a cell that allegedly send money and fighters to different terrorist organizations in north Africa, Iraq and other countries.


“The arrests are further evidence that Spain is part of the battlefield of international terrorism,” said Jesus Nunez Villaverde, an expert on the Islamic world and director of a Madrid think-tank, the Institute of Studies on Conflict and Humanitarian Action.

Ha! Muslims want Spain back as part of their Muslim empire.

But that would not have anything to do with Bush?

[5stringJeff]

No... it has to do with the fact that the Muslims owned Spain for about 600 years.

Oh, so the action of terrorists do not always equal the reaction to President Bush?

[5stringJeff]

Not always.
