They destroyed it by pouring concrete on it. That, too, is a terror attack.
Pakistanis Arrested for Vandalising Barcelona Terror Attack Memorial
By Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart News, December 15, 2019:
Four Pakistani nationals were arrested in Barcelona earlier this week after they poured concrete on part of a memorial to the victims of the 2017 Barcelona terror attack.
Story continues below advertisementThe four men poured concrete over a plaque on the La Rambla street which is a memorial to the victims, 16 of whom died, of the Barcelona radical Islamic terror attack. The vandalism took place at around 6 p.m. in the evening and the suspects were soon caught by police just yards away from the site of the crime, Spanish newspaper El Pais reports.
Police were tipped off by a pedestrian who managed to capture the act on their mobile phone and helped identify the Pakistani men who were behind it.
Each of the four men has been charged with harming the memorial and have also been charged under Spanish hate crime legislation due to the nature of the attack. The concrete has since been removed from the memorial.
The memorial itself contains the phrase “May peace cover you, oh city of peace” in Spanish, Catalan, English, and Arabic and lies next to a drawing of the word Barcelona by artist Frederic Amat, along with the date and time of the terrorist attack.
The incident comes just over a year since Stefan Åkerlund, the father of Stockholm terror attack victim Ebba Åkerlund, complained repeatedly to police that a migrant had vandalised his daughter’s grave on multiple occasions.
“I personally caught him in the act of desecration, when he was pouring [candle wax] on Ebba’s grave; the police released him after only one hour in custody,” Åkerlund said.
“That’s what my nightly visits to the graveyard were worth.”
Since the Barcelona attacks, Spain has been on high alert for radical Islamic terrorist plots. Spanish and Moroccan authorities have managed to foil a potential attack on the city of Seville during Holy Week earlier this year.

Deportation sounds good after five years in prison without parole.
Though considered barbaric, but then again these are the people who believe in removing the right hand and left foot for stealing, branding on the hand or arm so they can’t sneak back or are identified as an undesirable to all Western nations.
Of course there will be the wringing of hands by the left and the politically correct, but there is a war of philosophy coming: Islam versus the rest of the world.

I strongly disagree, stephen. Their ideology is the mirror image of the Judeo-Christian tradition. So it should be left hand and right foot.

These are all HIGH QUALITY, HIGH IQ people and if you don’t agree, then you know what you are – phobics etc.. There is a REASON why the UN BANS worldwide IQ RESEARCH!

Spain has a huge Muslim problem and its not getting any better but the people may be waking up given the rise of the VOX Party and allies. It took 700 years to expel the Muslims the first ttime.It may take 7 to do it again.
