'Moors' seek royal apology 500 years after their exile

From David Sharrock in Tétouan

KING JUAN CARLOS of Spain, who is in Morocco on a state visit, was told yesterday to apologise for the expulsion of three million Spanish Muslims from their homeland half a millennium ago.
The demand, by a prominent Moroccan historian, was made after the royal visitors cancelled a scheduled visit to the city of Tétouan, the former Spanish colonial territory, citing a busy itinerary, although Spanish journalists speculated that the cancellation had more to do with continuing tension between the two nations.

Tétouan was founded and constructed by the millions of Muslims expelled from “alAndalus” by the Catholic monarchs Isabella and Ferdinand after their victory over the last Moorish ruler Boabdil at Granada in 1492.

Mohammad ibn Azzuz Hakim, a leading Moroccan expert on the history of local culture, addressed an open letter to King Juan Carlos on the last of a three-day official visit to Morocco, the first since 1979.

Relations between Morocco and Spain were strained under the conservative José María Aznar, Spain’s previous Prime Minister, with a military spat over the occupation of the tiny and disputed Perejil (Parsley) island by the Moroccans. Señor Aznar sent a commando unit to recover the islet and American diplomats had to intervene.

His Majesty should apologize after the Moors apologize for invading Spain-using treachery- in the first place.

Moors!
Moops!!!
Moors!


But seriously, will the Romans stop apologizing for invading half the known world? And when will the Greeks start apologizing?
