Isle of Bile

It may just be me, but I can't really see how Spain has much claim to a tiny, uninhabited mound of dirt 600 yards off the shore of Morocco when Spain is what, a hundred or so miles away.

This is clearly not a Falklands island size conflict or contention of claims. C'mon Spain, just give 'em back the little dirtbag isle. Would it kill ya? But Morocco should be polite, though, and ask first before trying to steal it away.

Heck, just build a dirt causeway to the island and claim it's part of the mainland now. That might do it.

Correction. 200 yards off shore.
