Trying to De-(insert culture)-ize is unfortunately a very common practice. One that comes to mind immediately is the early Americans trying their hardest to wash away any Britian culture from America. They went so far as to change the dictionary, change words in how it was spelled in England, and re-wrote them to "Americanize" the language

While the period of Muslim rule in the Iberian Peninsula lasted for centuries (roughly 711 to 1492), genetic studies indicate that the overall contribution of North African and Arab ancestry to the modern Spanish gene pool is relatively limited, with estimates generally ranging from a few percent to around 10%

Moors weren't Arabs..

But Spaniards and Italians look like Persians and Arabs. Same shyt really.

I saw a documentary where an Italian journalist dressed like an Arab migrant and got on a boat full of Arab migrants headed to Italy to experience how Italian authorities mistreat migrants..and no one could tell he was Italian

 

[UncleTomFord15]

Alot of words in Spanish are of Arabic origin.

 

[3rdWorld]

Spain's a racist shythole
