      You are old enough to remember BBC, CBC, ABC, even PBS being better media outlets, without the censorship of advertisers, billionaire owner editorial control and at-will employee toadying.
      What makes these outlets poison today is the tribal control and needs of global capital to control narratives.
      Private media is just as bad---and no longer even makes a profit. Even when they did a couple of decades ago, it was through advertising, not subscriptions.

    In hindsight Joaquin Ruiz Jimenez proved to be right in the end. Democracy was achieved by a kind of gentlemen's agreement between the opposition and the more forward-looking elements of Franco's regime. This was the ruptura pactada of the late 1970's during the transition. Of course it also led to the pacto del olvido - the pact of forgetting - whereby the opposition decided to overlook the excesses of brutality during Franco's time and it has only been addressed in the past decade. It's also interesting that the commentator says ETA had not done a great deal, but this was 1969, in only a few short years that would change dramatically, to even include the assassination of Luis Carrero Blanco, Franco's Prime Minister, in 1973.

      ETA was created by the CIA and EU in order to put pressure on Franco to surrender sovereignty and join the EU. They never believed in independence for Basque country, that's a complete lie and just a cover for their true purposes.
      They openly admitted wanting European federalist dictatorship run by commissioners from brussels, which is the same reason Britain recently declared independence because they realised it was a colonial tyranny run by unelected people they cant remove.
      Even Pro EU leftist globalist Wikipedia admits that ETA was merely a group created to use violence to force Franco to surrender to the EU globalist agenda. It makes clear ETA was a euro federalist group.
      Franco would never negotiate on matters of sovereignty, he would be disgusted if he saw how Spain has appeased and surrendered everything to the EU socially liberal globalist tyranny that dictates the peoples lives for the whole of Europe from far away without accountability. He would literally wage a nationalist war of liberation if he saw the treason that's taking place today. Its disgusting.

    Basque Country is the cradle of ancient warriors and knights. They are less likely to be immigrated by Portuguese and Mooro people, so they have light skin, red lips, high noses, deep eyes, and look more elegant than other autonomous regions of Spain.
    Especially, they are a people with a martial spirit and a princely spirit. Typically, A.Bilbao club never buys players originating outside the Basque country. Real Sosiedas as well as 1 opposing team in each Spanish city are royally sponsored vassals.

      They are a handsome people and most of North Spain including the Asturianos look like them. A Basques face tends to have stronger, bigger, robust bones and an Asturianos and often times Galician is daintier and on the pretty side like Emilio Estevez and the Asturianu in my avatar. Catalans are extremely handsome but look more obviously Germanic to me than celtic (Catalan boys I have seen have a diamond shape face often times with light brown hair) but I have seen this to with Asturianus.. That's how I can tell them apart, atleast a Basque and an Asturianu, but most of the North resembles each other probably because they were once related somehow.

      @asturiasceltic3183 10 месяцев назад +1

      If you are talking about the knights from the Reconquest those mainly are in Asturias (the cradle of the Reconquest founded by Don Pelayo) and that's why they have Santo in their surnames as part of a venerated title they were given for being a knight. That is why King Felipe calls himself King Felipe De Todos Los Santos de Bourbon Greca. He is the king of all the Saints especially in Asturias, where he is from. They are a celt-iberian Germanic people with Roman surnames sometimes. There probably were knights in Basqueland but didn't seem to be not given Roman titles. Maybe the Basques wanted to retain their unique surnames.

    "ETA - they want an independant Basque state" ...funny that they only killed in Spain and NOT in France... The Basque country is located in both places and the French republic does not contemplate the secession of any of its territories !! They were conducting military training in front of the eyes and protected by the French security forces. In Spain, 99% of ETA''s total assassinations took place during DEMOCRACY and not in FRANCOIST times whilst in France, they coexisted and continue to coexist within the French Republic without raising a word of discontent, the French Republic is extremely more centralised than Spain, which has 17 autonomous parliaments - the most decentralised country in Europe. Whilst they killed and kidnapped during democracy in Spain, they had a statute of autonomy and a Basque government and parliament and their own special tax collecting agreement within Spain, something only they and Navarre have - something unthinkable in France. Freedom fighters ? Don't make me laugh.

Hundreds of babies were stolen from mothers deemed "unfit". Franco named Juan Carlos his successor and, once in power, he passed a law to forgive and forget all the crimes.

    Orwell, in "Homage to Catalonia" makes a translation error: He translates "Los nacionales" (the nationals) for "the nationalists" (los nacionalistas). Nationalism, can be a strong feeling for your land or ( as a second meaning) a political ideology wich demands a nation to be recognised as such. As for Spain has been a nation since nations, as a political concept, appear in human history, there is no room for spanish nationalist ideology. Both right and left wing ideologies reclaim nationalistic feeling for the land. You can read poets in the exile during Franco´s regime expresing their love for the spanish land. For example Luis Cernuda. The only nationalist ideologies we have in Spain are the Catalan, Basque and Galicians who want to become a nation that, till the present time, has never existed.

    Franco died about six years after this documentary was produced. His death was a blessing for Spain which then moved into the 20th century, 75 years late. Many millions died at Franco’s hands, for simply having “incorrect thoughts” or inconvenient opinions. Tens of thousands suffered torture and cruel, inhuman, abusive imprisonments. Tens of thousands of women were systematically, intentionally and brutally raped in organized rapes dictated and scheduled by the nationalists and carried out by moorish troops because they had “incorrect” thoughts or political opinions. Tens of thousands of babies were taken from their mothers and given to nationalist families. Sound familiar? The mothers were later executed. By the way, the catholic church sanctioned every bit of it.
