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.

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.)
