I was interested to see your description of the fight against a military uprising in Spain as 'futile' - does this mean that the elected government should NOT have fought against Franco and his fascists - do tell. - (Jim Carroll)
Again another invention by Jim Carroll, where do I describe "the fight against a military uprising in Spain as 'futile'"?? Having gone through my post I can only find one reference to the Spanish Civil War which reads as follows:
"The prospective conflict does not bear thinking about, it would have been absolutely horrendous, you are talking here about something in prospect as great and as destructive as the Spanish Civil War and possibly a damn sight more protracted."
Do you see the word "futile" in that sentence Jim? I certainly cannot – do tell.
I ask again WHAT THREE DAY ULTIMATUM?? Where in Robert Barton's Notes is a three day ultimatum mentioned or referred to? Or is it like me refering to the fighting in the Spanish Civil as being futile a pure invention of Jim Carroll's
