This is very strange stuff, and it made no headlines or banner news in the past 48 hours from what I can see.
What does Spain think it’s doing? Is the country bored with its new currency and desiring a little imperial action? Where is King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella? (FYI, these are the good folks that expelled both the Moors and the Jews in 1492 from Spain. And they sponsored C. Columbus.) The two countries could actually go to war because of this, but analysts differ. The island, by the way, is “uninhabited” according to the New York Sun’s report today.
