The Spanish Civil War
Certainly, during the cold war, the governments of the United States supported dictatorships only because these were anti-communist, without mattering that they were, mainly, undemocratic. History has demonstrated that was an error and there is many examples of it . In Spain, many people of my...- Sierra Charriba

The Spanish Civil War
Yes, the bad guys won...but later they were defeated by the Soviet Union, the United States of America and the Great Britain. The survivors did not accept that they had lost, and then decided to punish the spanish people with almost forty years of dictatorship.- Sierra Charriba

The Spanish Civil War
Anselmo, you can look for "good side" of all dictators an, probably, you will find it anything fine in Franco, Hitler Mussolini, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Saddam!, etcc.. But they were DICTATORS. Franco killed and jailed thousands of spanish, during and after the war. He was a criminal. History said...- Sierra Charriba

The Spanish Civil War
I believe that is better to forget the quest for the "definitive book" about SCW and to read several simply good books. There are very good Spanish authors writing books about SCW of great objectivity (Moradiellos, Casanova) but they do not have the attractiveness and fame of Hugh Thomas or...- Sierra Charriba

Reenacting Spanish Civil War
I agree completely. If France and Great Britain had understood truely, during the Thirties, the danger that supposed the fascism, perhaps World War II had been avoided or been very different. But only they were scared of the Comunism, and that blinded its eyes until it was too much behind...- Sierra Charriba

Reenacting Spanish Civil War
I was lucky to be a friend of Emilio Alvarez, a.k.a. "Pinocho", one of the commanders of the Spanish guerrillas who entered Spain from France, in the so-called invasion of the Ar?°n valley, which is the episode to which the movie "El laberinto del fauno" refers, although in a very little...- Sierra Charriba

Reenacting Spanish Civil War
Really, we have had some problems but we have been able to reunite reenactors of both sides, each one with its ideology. It is certain that in Spain the ideological passions are marked, but in ¬°Ay, Carmela! we never spoke of policy and we respected all the people although we reject the ideas of...- Sierra Charriba

Nice photo! I have never used my FED camera, although the salesman says that he works perfectly. I am not an expert photographer, I only know to use my Canon digital camera.
