13 dead in van attack in Barcelona
There may have been a car attack by a jihadist in Spain a few months earlier, but now it's happened again, and in an area where there's a kosher restaurant (Hat tip: Hot Air):
A terrorist-driven van plowed through a crowded pedestrian plaza in the heart of Barcelona on Thursday afternoon, killing at least 13 people dead and injuring dozens, the latest in a series of low-tech attacks in European cities.Will this convince Spain in turn that their own willingness to allow Muslim migrants into the country along with those they already got? They're going to have to start doing some serious thinking, and also expel many from their country. As Geert Wilders has said, the west has to de-Islamize their societies.
Catalan authorities said they had arrested one man for the attack in Las Ramblas during the height of the tourist season. They said they expected the number of deaths to rise.
"My most serious condemnation to the terrorist attack in Barcelona," Catalan's Interior Minister Joaquim Forn tweeted just before night fell on the city. "We can confirm 13 deaths and more than 50 wounded."
