Spain Arrests Moroccan in Mallorca 'Linked' to IS Group
[AnNahar] Spanish police said Tuesday they had detained a Moroccan man in the Mediterranean island resort of Palma de Mallorca suspected of recruiting jihadists for the Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (IS) group. "A police probe revealed that the accused had close contact with established murderous Moslems involved with ISIS who are currently located in Syria," they said in a statement using a synonym for IS. They added that the man used virtual platforms to recruit new jihadists for Syria and Iraq, "encouraging them and facilitating their trip to the conflict zone so that they could join the ranks of ISIS." The operation was launched as part of a probe opened by Spain's National Court, which specializes in extremism cases. Spanish police regularly announce the detention of people suspected of having links with jihadist groups, although it is unclear exactly how many have been held so far this year. Last year, the interior ministry said it had tossed in the clink I ain't sayin' nuttin' widdout me mout'piece! around 100 suspected jihadists. Since June Spain has been on a heightened anti-terror alert -- level four of a possible five -- following attacks in La Belle France, Tunisia and Kuwait on the same day.
