AQ Calls For The Re-Conquest Of Spain

Madrid-The emergence of a new al-Qaeda-linked organization in Northern Africa is alarming Spain, which is concerned about Islamists' calls for the reconquest of the country they regard as a lost part of the Muslim world.

"We will not be in peace until we set our foot again in our
beloved al-Andalus," al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb said on claiming responsibility or an attack which killed at least 24 people in Algiers on Wednesday.

Al-Andalus is the Moorish name for Spain, parts of which were ruled by Muslims for about eight centuries until the last Moorish bastion, Granada, succumbed to the Christian Reconquest in 1492.

Nice. And they still want to build the tunnel?
