Thank you for thinking I am not a dill. I am a lot of things, but certainly not a dill. <g> Of course I don't really think you're a bolshie, but to buy into the notion that the Spanish Civil War was fought by noble democratists against evil fascists is bolshie propaganda.

The only fascist forces allied with Franco were the Falangists. The Carlists were reacting to the religious persecution that occurred after Republican laws of 1931 were passed. Franco stood for nation and continuity of tradition. The International Communists and their cohorts were little more than bloodthirsty hoodlums. The mass murder of priests and nuns should give people a clue as to what the war was really about.

Viva Franco! Arriba Espana!
