I justed posted on Britain's first steps away from multiculturalism. Unfortunately, that isn't the case with Spain, who caved to terrorists and voted in Liberals because of the pre-election train bombings in Madrid.

Spanish school cancels Christmas for fear of offending Muslims
MADRID (Reuters) - A school in traditionally Catholic Spain has cancelled Christmas celebrations so as not to offend children who are not Christians, ABC newspaper reported on Wednesday.
The Hilarion Gimeno school in Zaragoza said teachers had put forward various reasons for not celebrating Christmas, but ABC said the worry was that Muslim children might be upset.
The school will not put on a nativity play or hand out presents, but pupils will be free to decorate the halls and sing carols.
"We are educators and we want our school programme to advance the personal development of our students as much as possible," the school said.
Christmas celebrations usually last for about a month in Spain, with parties starting in December and running through to January 6 for "Los Reyes", a huge fiesta to celebrate the visit of the three wise men to the new-born Jesus in Bethlehem.
Confront Islam every day.

Bowing to Islamic terror tactics and universal Jihad will "advance the personal development of our students as much as possible"?
Um -- how, EXACTLY?

Spain is getting exactly what it deserves. Don't expect anyone to bail them out either when it gets too hot!
