What is the difference of Franco and let's say Pinoset?Or Pinoset is a democratic dictator?

From what I know:

Franco never put himself to be subject of voting, he organized some referendums about constitution for example. Pinochet searched for approval of the people, he was a subject of three referendums. He won the first two, lost the last one and allowed to organize free elections reserving for himself the chief of the army post and later became a lifetime Senator. So one cannot say that Pinochet was an enemy of democracy in general. Though neither he was a democrat "no matter what".

Like Franco he did not have a clue about economy, however searching for alternative to communism handed over this sector to liberal Chilean economists educated in Chicago, students of Milton Friedman. I think that their reforms were even better, we in Poland are 100 years behind Chile as far pension system is concentrated. Even socialists which with time handed the power don't dare to reverse these reforms.

Pinochet needed to deal with Chilean clergy which was widely under influence of theology of liberation (condemned by Vatican). Even most of Chilean bishops. He considered them to be simply communists.

Frankly, these veterans from this war shouldn't even be acknowledged by the Polish parliament, if there even are any living today.

There are still 25 veterans of Spanish civil war living In Poland. About a year ago there was a proposal by PiS to take away their privileges and reduce their pensions to minimum. At the same time Spanish parliament has passed a resolution to protect those veterans by giving them a legal help and advice to keep their status as veterans. I never fallowed up on the story so I have no idea on whatever happened.

Ahh, good ol' PiS. That is what it was good for, bringing justice to all the former communist rats.

This is fake story. In fact PiS proposed reduce to minimum pensions of communist oppressors. It turned out that some of them fought in Spanish civil war and western media somehow span this story in this direction. Whether it was part of their anti-PiS campaign, expression of sympathy to ideological friends or just paranoia of ignorants, judge yourself...

I personally don't really believe that those PiS people that pushed this idea truly believe that their original plan could be ever realized. This is just populism.

I prefer the dead nazi rats.

99% of Nazi rats were punished, 99% of commie rats were not punished. Think about it, the latter group is untouchable. Those are two radical parts of the same camp, thus they hate each other much more than they hate their common capitalist enemies.

in the Spanish Civil War

here again, as many times before and after- Poles (same as Serbs and other Slavs) were cannon fodders

Slavs should learn not to waste their strength. Only Slavdom deserve our lives. Only our children! False west not for sure

Surrender your life to Slavia, soul to Christ and honor to nobody!

I presume you do realise that Slavs are not unique in that regard?

By the way - thanks Lesser for the links

one life, one heart, one soul

ok mr sarajevo
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

that for you mr slavic , .......bla bla bla

Is there a time for keeping a distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear

Here she comes
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown

Is there a time to walk for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colors
Different names you find it hard to spell

Is there a time for first communion
A time for east 17
Is there a time to turn the mecca
Is there a time to be a beauty queen

Here she comes
Beauty plays the crown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

ok mr sarajevo

me? Sarajevo? i`m not from Sarajevo

You should ask Serbs of Sarajevo how they were treated from mujaheedines in Sarajevo. Arabic mujaheedines like to torture White Christian woman, girls, boys and man, you know

that for you mr slavic , .......bla bla bla

tell me, tell me... Are you on drugs this evening? Or maybe too much BBC, CNN, AL JAZEERA, ITN and DEUTSCHE WELLE sources

from Stand Up to Your Devil
`Stand Up to Your Devil or he would look upon you`

from Green Roses
`At the crack of the dawn thunder and lightning crossed the way
The shadow of knight waited to see the bright light of the day
Nobody saw his bitter tears through the dark veil of rain
The river of blood under his feet run wild again and again`

from Sindidun
`With heavy cross upon my neck I ran from hands of hangman's will
Yes I've killed I must admit, bombs and guns my friends have been
That's the bid I have to pay, that's my heavy portion of sin`

lyricsmagnet.com/lyrics/ORTHODOX+CELTS.html

you mean this...

Mujahedeen member of Bosnian Muslim Army holds decapitated head of Blagoja Blagojevic as a trophy for the camera in Crni Vrh. Bosnian Muslim Army systematically executed, tortured, and beheaded Bosnian Serbs

Geneva Convention treatment of POWs and enemy combatants violations. Muslim mujahedeen soldier in Bosnian Muslim army stands on the decapitated heads of Bosnian Serb soldeirs Blagoje Blagojevic, Brana Duric, and Nenad Petkovic in Crni Vrh near Teslic.

The charred remains of Milomir Prodanovic, killed in Muslim attack on Podravanje.

Dobrina Prodanovic holds the skull of her 17 year old son, Zivan, killed with 20 others in Ratkovici on June 21, 1992 by Muslim forces and the village was burned.

Geneva Convention violation on the treatment of Bosnian Serbs. Muslims roasted and skewered him on a spear and his body was exhibited in front of a hotel.

not only over Slavic connections but also, unfortunately via NATO Poles are deeply involved in events in former Yugoslavia. They need to know facts

After all, war is war (as, if), Spanish Civil War or Civil War in former Yugoslavia. You wanted war story, you got it

BDW, Spanish soldiers are also involved in events via NATO. Look with how `nice` mujaheedine scum NATO was/is in alliance

pardon

NATO and EU (particularly Germany) started Civil War in former Yugoslavia. Its not even for discussion, its a so big fact

can`t sleep, listen music, surf

friend of mine has been mobilized in army. Arabic Mujaheedines and wehabies appeared in Southern Serbian regions, guerrilla warfare (attack and then retreats on Kosovo where NATO protects them)

Also, Albanian mujas are very active these days, on Kosovo-Metohija and in Moravska (South of Serbia, around Kosovo-Metohija).

all smell on another war. just this time, much bigger then in Bosnia, Krajina
