| May 24, 2019 at 19:04 | comment | added | Ricardolindo | As for your two objections: 1. Hitler could very easily convert the Spanish socialists and communists into fascists, he had done that with many German socialists and communists and it appears that he believed that very few of the Reds were really communists, read books.google.com/… and books.google.com/…. The Falange was also part of hi plans, though, the quotes in those pages say that Hitler believed the Reds and the Falangists would ally and overthrow Franco with his support. | |
| May 24, 2019 at 18:54 | comment | added | Ricardolindo | Sorry but this incomplete quote already shows very clearly that Hitler was talking about the Reds and the complete quote, along with the context, that, it appears in, shows it even more clearly, please, read my post in alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/… for the complete quote and its context. | |

As for opposition to Franco government, the most relevant to it happened in the middle of the Civil War, when Franco issued the Unification Decree (which merged all of his side political parties into Falange Española de las JONS, under his control. There a number of falangist (most notably Manuel Hedilla) opposed this movement and were persecuted by the regime. Anything about reading minds is... | |
| Mar 11, 2017 at 16:40 | comment | added | SJuan76 | Certainly the quote refers to "the Reds" as being the idealistic side. As to what would be "the other side" that would "start [the whole thing] again" with Hitler's support, it depends heavily of what did Hitler actually knew about the Spanish situation. Did he know how serious the repression was? The details of political infighting? Was he deluding himself? From my POV I find it more rational (if that means anything when applied to Hitler) to believe that he was thinking about Falange, specially since the May 1941 crisis by which the most Falangist, pro-Axis ministers wer dismissed... | |
| Mar 11, 2017 at 15:41 | comment | added | Anguepa | Thank you for the detailed response. I did know that many Falange members believed Franco had betrayed their idea of a fascist revolution once he rised to power. I haven't heard though of any clear opposition to Francoism from Falangistas that Hitler could be appealing to. I do know that even important figures in Falange like Sánchez Mazas went on to have a position in the new goverment and never opposed Franco. Secondly, there is something about the quote, it feels like he is talking about "the Reds". Do you truly think this is improbable? | |
