Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... -

paiktis, your story seems to indicate that Morocco recognizes Spanish sovereignty over Ceuta and Melilla. The CIA handbook says otherwise:
[QUOTE]Spain controls five places of sovereignty (plazas de soberania) on and off the coast of Morocco - the coastal enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla which Morocco contests, as well as the islands of Penon de Alhucemas, Penon de Velez de la Gomera, and Islas Chafarinas [\QUOTE]
If Morocco goes after either enclave, there will be a war between Spain and Morocco.http://tools.wikimedia.de/~gmaxwell/jorbis/JOrbisPlayer.php?path=John+Williams+The+Imperial+M arch+from+The+Empire+Strikes+Back.ogg&wiki=enComment

Morocco won't stand much of a chance. Furthermore, even if Spain somehow manages to lose the rest of the EU will step in.If Morocco goes after either enclave, there will be a war between Spain and Morocco.Quod Me Nutrit Me DestruitComment

I can't believe that Maghribu is that dumb. That must mean sth else. Perhaps by provoking Spanish attack, Maroccans
wish to obtain sth else... But Marocco isn't anti-European...

Ceuta and Melilla are small Spanish enclaves on the African coast. If Morocco is escallating its territorial claims to the use of force, the most likely targets are these two towns. This is why the situation really is serious.http://tools.wikimedia.de/~gmaxwell/jorbis/JOrbisPlayer.php?path=John+Williams+The+Imperial+M arch+from+The+Empire+Strikes+Back.ogg&wiki=enComment

A reply to whoever asked about the military strength of Morocco: I visited the country last year for 5 weeks, and was most of the times in the Western Sahara, which is essentially occupied territory (think Palestine) by the Moroccans. Their military strength is huge, especially in the Sahara. I can't say how modern their army is, but in shear numbers I guess they'll match Spain easily. Those bluehelmets have some function there, they 'try to pacify the region' since 1975 (If only they would do something, instead of spending dollars on whiskey in 5 star hotels).
Not only was Spain the first country to colonize Morocco before they traded it to France, they are also the biggest supporters of Polisario, the main resistance movement of the region. Okay, there has been little armed conflict in the Sahara the past years, but diplomatically the tensions are growing.
This could very well have been a move by Hassan II to shift attention from the Western Sahara even more, and far from the joke people think it is. Sure, a tiny island of little strategic importance can only be a provocation, but I guess that was exactly what they tried to do: Morocco is Europe minded, and has very good relations with France, but due to the support of Polisario there is not one 'true' Moroccan who likes Spain. Conflict within the EU on the issue could have been the only goal...

It must be one of those small pocket carriers.
