Spain....similar immigration issue to the US?

    I have read some articles that Spain is facing similar immigration issues to that going on in the US? But instead of recieving Mexicans they are receving mostly Morroccans. What other groups are trying to get into spain and maybe the rest of Europe?

Immigration is just a sign of the times. The EU in many respects is far worse off than the US. The EU has a large problem with immigrants refusing to integrate, and thus the immigrants can't get jobs.

The immigration reform that's taken place in the Netherlands reflects the this problem. I've read a few articles about Germany and thier failed integration plan. They now have large amounts of unemployed and un-assimilated immigrants.

Then there's also the issue that you've mentioned Maharbbal. Some people can't afford to immigrate, and have to resort to illegitimate ways. It's the same with the US. Immigrants hire criminals to illegally transport them across the border. If the transporters get spooked, they just abandon the immigrants (in the middle of teh mexican desert many times). Plus, you've got the sex trade and anrcotics trafficking to worry about.

I think a necessary step is to force immigrants to integrate and learn the language and history of the country they are entering before allowing them to enter.

here's an article about Germany's integration problems...
