I´m spanish and I can´t thank enough all these brave men and women, their sacrifice and the way they gave everything they had, up to their very own lifes for the cause "la causa" is just astonishing, specially in our days. The words of that woman at the end nearly brought tears to my eyes. Gracias y salud donde quiera que estéis.

yes i know about the red terror in spain it was mostly carried out by stalinists against democratic socialists, anarchists and trotskyists...george orwell devotes several brilliant passages to it in "homage to catalonia" :D
i think you misunderstood my comment, i wasn't defending the soviets

Morally there is practically no distinction between fascism and communism; practically in the context of ww2 however, there was a temporary but significant difference. i wasn't defending communism in any way. but "even a broken clock is right twice a day"
The communists betrayed the Republic. I won't condemn individual communists, but my sympathies are with the anarchists.
But anyone who opposed fascism at that time has my respect, whatever their political affiliation.
