Just today is a sad day in my native country. Just today is the 80th anniversary of the Bombing of Gernika.
I have been silent lately, but I want you see how the fascism remains living in the Spanish right of the PP, and as consequence in Spain.
I commented sometime the ties between the current PP and the old regimen of Francisco Franco. One of the most evident cases of the last years has been the relation between José Utrera Molina, who was father in law of Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón. I commented it here before.
I know it is difficult to realize how the fascism remains present in the current PP, but at least, maybe you can find it more trustable if you see it with your own eyes.
Jose Utrera Molina died the last April 22 with 91 years old. The Spanish law, and the PP enforcing it allowed not to prosecute this man as a criminal of the Francoist dictatorship. Like he was. Spanish victims had to go to Argentina to try to prosecute this man, between others. But the Spain of the PP of Rajoy obeyed not the Interpol order of arrest of this man coming from Argentina. And this man died unpunished, protected by the Spanish government of the PP of Rajoy.
This is a clip of his funeral the last week: Pure fascism, the last week in Málaga, Spain. The people must see it to understand what has been happening in Spain with the PP.
Note that it is possible to identify Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón in the images, near the car.
This was the died man in 1973 in a massive “convention” of the Spanish fascists:
Now a little example of how the Spanish fascism does still its propaganda (Licinio de la Fuente died in 2015 also unpunished:
And finally, how the deceased fascist was strongly praised by Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón in a extreme right TV channel in Spain:
Of course Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón has himself strong family ties with the Francoism:
His father: José María Ruiz Gallardón
His Grand-father: Victor Ruiz Albeniz
This is far from being an isolate case in Spain, the Spanish PP is plagued of people like Alberto Ruiz-Gallardon. Just also the last week:

Also, every July 18 and every November 20 we see the same fascist apologies done publicly.
I really can not understand the support of the Democratic Party to the PP to keep the gouvernment in Spain. I’m very pissed because of it. In the mind of many millions of persons that suffered the Spanish fascism, it only damages the image of the Democratic Party and the US.
PS: Sorry if some links are in Spanish but there are things that have not traslation. Some times is not easy to find decent sources in English. You can have a better knowledge using an online traslator or with the help of a friend Spanish speaker.
