From the Spanish-language El Mundo, with thanks to Alex. My rough translation of part of the article:
Four prisoners of Kosovar Albanian origin were wounded after suffering a violent attack at the hands of Islamist inmates in the Penitentiary Center of Mansilla de las Mulas in León, because of their refusal to observe Ramadan. The incident took place at 7:30PM on Thursday in Module 6, when a group of between 16 and 18 prisoners of Arab race, armed with the steel dinner trays, attacked "with unusual violence" the four Kosovar Albanians....Mansilla de las Mulas, in which one third of the 1,500 inmates is Muslim, is one of the jails identified by prison unions as potentially dangerous for the formation of integrist groups. The national secretary of ACAIP and representative of the union in Mansilla, Valentin Flames, characterized the event as "tremendously grave" and denounced the violence of the aggressors, who acted as one, totally organized and without fear of anything.
Flames also said that the problems in the prison get worse during Ramadan.
Ramadan - a time for prayer and reflection.
Spain is not a dhimmi nation; it's too spineless to even be called a dhimmi. It's a sub-dhimmi nation. Spain would have to grow a backbone even to get to the point of being called "dhimmi."
tomorrow's news- Infidels are found by supreme court to be guilty, sentenced to steel-tray beating.
So much for the rants by Muslims that non-Muslims are the biggest proportion of persons
in the jails.
With about 1 percent of the population they now make up about 33 percent of this jails inmate population,when minorities in Canada want to make public comments that are racist and untrue,they
blame all the crime and social ills on native born white people,but then when they want money from the Government a magical study pops up and show visible minorities and immigrants as victims of systemic racism that creates the high unemployment rates and poverty that in turn causes the disproportional numbers in the jail populations.
Why even a University Professor asserted that Canadian born citizens have a lower education and earn less the immigrants,they also are the largest group in prisons. This man still has his job and the facts show that unskilled immigrants with pooe English skills earn about 60 percent of Canadian born citizens.
Ramadan is the Holy month,but Holy to Muslims doesn't mean peace and tolerance,it's obsession and wageing war against a perceived injustice.
Don't wait until the Statue of Liberty has a Hijab on it by Muslims that were offended at her
exposed face. The jail riots and overall violence seems to be more a sex-starved Muslim men that can't control their lust,and a psychological disorder along with paranoia causes pre-emptive violence to stop any future attacks on Islam.
"Ramadan - a time for prayer and reflection" or we'll kill you!
Isn't there something in the Koran about there being no compulsion in religion?
feralee,
Isn't there some Moslem who's going to ask where that particular passage can be found in the Koran?
If he is pointed to it, he will begin to explain that there is no compulsion in religion in Islam. (Omitting that this is true as long as the religion is Islam and everyone observes it.)
I think these actions come under the 'enjoining good and forbidding evil' rubric. If muzzies don't attack other muzzies for their shortcomings, they are bad muzzies and will be punished:
"Allah the Most High said: Let there be among you a community who enjoin good and forbid evil; it is they that shall be successful, [3:104] and: You are the best community that has ever been brought forth for mankind: you enjoin good and forbid evil, and you believe in God, [3:110] and: Those who repent, those who worship, those who praise, those who persevere, those who bow down, those who prostrate, and those who enjoin good and forbid evil, [9:112] and: Those of the Israelites who were unbelievers have already been cursed on the tongue of David and Jesus, son of Mary, for they were disobedient, and transgressed. They did not forbid one another from committing the evil that they wrought. What they used to do was foul indeed. [5:79] The Qur'an is full of passages which treat of this subject.
Muslim relates on the authority of Abu Sa`id (radhiallahu `anhu) that the Prophet sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam said, "Whoever sees something evil should change it with his hand. If he cannot, then with his tongue; and if he cannot do even that, then in his heart. That is the weakest degree of faith."
He also relates on the authority of Ibn Mas`ud that the Prophet (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) said, "There was not a single Prophet among those who were sent before me who did not have apostles and companions and followed his Sunna and obeyed his commands. But afterwards other generations came whose words belied their deeds, and whose deeds were not in accordance with what they commanded others to do. Whoever struggles against the with his hand is a believer. Whoever struggles against them with his tongue is a believer. And whoever struggles against them with his heart is a believer. But when none of these things are done, then not a single mustard's seed weight of faith is present."

In the gospel according to Mo, violence (hand) is the first resort. So these prisoners were merely practicing their religion.
Spain, in spite of her recent vote, does not deserve the grief she is getting now. If it were not for Spain's spine, Muslims would never have been pushed out of the Iberian penisula and would have perhaps taken over the rest of Europe. Viva España and may Spaniards come to their senses.
Lumping them in with the French, esp. considering how much moral support Aznar gave the U.S., shows a lack of distinction between two very different Eur. countries.
Spain demonstrated plenty of courage during centuries, in the struggle to free herself from an invasion. We were also lucky in that the UN and television were not there to enforce the politically correct interpretation of reality: things might have turned out very differently.
Regardless of the current public image of Spain, even how there are plenty of Spaniards who do not support the idea that appeasing the intolerant and the agressive is an option worth exploring; who realize that appearing weak is the perfect way to provoke further attacks upon yourself.
In this specific case, the prison system in Spain is run by a woman, Ms. Mercedes Gallizo, who has not only ignore the problem as long as possible, but has also taken disciplinary measures against those of her subordinates who voiced concerns about the obvious and friendly contacts between moslem inmates and ETA terrorists in prison. She has also actively disregarded the growing insolence of moslem inmates who have managed to turn common areas, such as libraries and commonal rooms, into prayer rooms for their exclusive use, and into which female prison guards are not allowed.
What can I say? The Socialist party in goverment appoint this person and keeps her in her post. Yes, millions of spineless Spaniards voted Socialist in the last elections, held 3 days after a massacre. But as it turns, 10 million people voted for PP, Mr. Aznar's party, and this means that the outcome was very close, even with the heavy duty manipulation of the voters that went on during those 3 days.
That so many people are aware (in a higher or lesser degree) of the problem faced by Spain in particular and the Western world in general is remarkable, since the pressure exerted in Spain via TV and printed press is enormous. One really has to give very little about political correctness to stand up to this pressure. And yes, may we all come back to our senses.
