There's still very strong muslim influences in Spain, dating back from the days the Mores were in charge. They don't live an easy life, Spain can be pretty racist. I've seen the Guardia Civil in action against dark skin colored people who roam the boulevards of places like Benidorm and Fuengirola. They beat you up first and ask questions later. Must be an attitude remaining from the Franco era or something. All in all this isn't going to improve things for the local muslim population.
