As to the Spanish episode, the Turks in 1480 attacked the south Italian city of Otranto. 12, 000 people were killed, the rest made slaves. The Turks killed every cleric in the city and sawed the archbishop in two. So Queen Isabel sent a fleet to Italy. In September of 1480, when it was clear the Turks might do the same to any coastal city, Isabel established the Inquisition. It dealt with the special problem of those who pretended to become Christian, but were not really converted, and might open the gates of the city to the Turks. The Jews and Moslems fought side by side in battle at this time. Muslims and Jews did not fall under the jurisdiction of the Inquisition because they were not baptized. On the other hand: All properly baptized persons, being Christians and members of the Catholic Church, came under the jurisdiction of the Inquisition.

Who was Ferdin and Isabella?
Ferdinand and Isabella, also known as the Catholic Monarchs, were the King and Queen of Spain who financed Christopher Columbus. (She was from Castilla; he was from Aragon.) They also "purified" Spain through the Spanish Inquisition and the Reconquista.
What did Queen Isabella have to do with the Spanish Inquistion?
Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain issued the edicts requiring all Jews and Moslems in Spain to convert, flee, or die. When too many non-Catholics converted, these rulers, among others, were worried that they might not be real Catholics and were secretly practicing their original religions. Therefore King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella created the Holy Inquisition as a tribunal to judge whether faith infractions had occurred. They gave control of the Inquisition to Torquemada and allowed him any means necessary to exact a confession. Most victims of the Inquisition were knowingly tortured in heinous ways with the permission of the Spanish Monarchy. (The Inquisition was only disbanded in the 1830s.)
