Well, you miss my point... before you could do that... don't you have to get the Muslims to recompense Spain for ousting them from the Iberian pennisula in the first place...

of course before that you need to get the Spanish (Visigoths) to repay the Italians for taking it all away from Rome... and the Italians owe the Cathaginians who had it first...

In other words, there is no way to balance the account sheets. The only thing we can try to do is say "It won't happen again." For the most part, at least we in the various democracies around the world are trying to see it true.
