In Spain, the military started a war to prevent the country of becoming communist. Then they decided to start a fascist regime.
As a rich family, my grandparent suffered in the hands of the "reds", having to spend the war in several forced work camps, losing everything he and his family had. As a catalan intellectual, he then had his culture forbidden by the fascist government (and he didn't suffer too much because, as an ex-prisoner of "the enemy", he had certain privileges).
Am I supposed to be for or against the spanish military, then, considering the historical precedents?
And how can I judge the american army?
