@barkingmad33 Franco was not a fascist, not all dictators are fascists.

A ver Patapalo, empezando por H y la otra palabra por M, cómo se llamaban los líderes alemán e italiano que apoyaban a Paquito el chocolatero de "El Ferrol del Caudillo"?

There is an interesting story about this movie in the book "The Breaking Point: Hemingway, dos Passos, and the Murder of Jose Robles"
-
What you forget to mentioned is that the Popular Front was backed by Stalin that tried to imposed his communist revolution with blood too. The left ended up being as criminals as the Franco regime.
-
It wasn't the British government that flew Franco in, but a freelance British pilot.
-
another good case of the British government being twats.
-
Kennedy's father and other Irish-American catholics donated money to Franco because he was "defending the catholic church".

Soon after the Loyalist cause was lost, and Franco installed, the Governments of UK and USA readily recognized his dictatorship until his death in the 1970s.

An interesting aspect of history that has been so effectively buried in America, is that untrained young men & women left campuses and jobs to fight for popular democracy (a pure American ideal)in Spain in 1937. They were members of the Lincoln Brigade. In the late 40s & 50s, they were hounded by the FBI as "premature anti-fascists", aka communists, during the McCarthy era.

Francisco Franco, the fascist General of the rebels fighting against the duly elected democratic government is Spain, was backed by Spanish monarchists, the Catholic Church, the fascist regimes in Italy and Germany. His National Guard was heavily supplimented by Moorish mercenaries from northern Africa with fascist money. Franco was flown into Spain by the British Government.
