Francisco Franco and the Jews

Carry an interesting news, the most far unknown, taken from the book by J. Dumont on Isabella the Catholic, but that, however, regards Francisco Franco:

" There is such an incredible paradox and for all those who viewed only on the basis of superficial elements: it is a very traditional English, whose family originates in those "hasty baptisms" (accused of the usual historical Dumont denies that, with regard to the conversion of approximately 100,000 to 200,000 Jews at the time of their expulsion from Spain in 1492, ed), to come to the rescue of the Jews when they, in our century were threatened. This man had a double line of descent conversation, father and mother: her name was Francisco Franco Bahamonde, two names of families converse. Head of a English Christian and authoritarian rule, had re-established as the state emblem and the symbol of the Catholic Monarchs, the yoke and arrows: the man jumped into the rescue of Jews in danger. Moreover, the Institute of Race SS had reported to Hitler the origins Jewish Franco, a fact noted in a little sweet, even the British Ambassador Samuel Hoare, who called him "officer jew" ..
This man, who considered himself a disciple of and successor, Isabel, did something unheard of in the middle of the triumph of Hitler gave English nationality to the descendants of Jews expelled from Spain, who were numerous in the countries occupied by Nazi Germany, Greece, in particular. The passports that had come to many of them, putting them under the protection of a neutral State, tore them to the deportation of fact: it is estimated that Franco has saved 400,000 Jews as well, sometimes for "direct intervention of the English Government, as noted by the 'Ambassador the United States with him, JHHayes, in his memoirs, wartime missions in Spain. [..] The gratitude in memory of Francisco Franco is celebrated every year on the anniversary of his death, November 20, from the Sephardic Jews (the Jewish inhabitants of the Iberian Peninsula, ed) of a synagogue in Brooklyn, New York, descendants of Jews expelled in 1492: a celebration of gratitude for the many lives of the children of Israel were saved from Franco in a movement of mind as spontaneous as traditional "(J. Dumont, Queen defamation, truth about Isabella the Catholic, PP .98-99)

As usual, some news, though important and significant, are bound in some unavailable and small volume, which is naturally (and rightly) unknown to a popular culture medium, which can not deal with historical insights. For we believe that we learn is a must widely disseminate the contents. Despite his extraordinary work, Francisco Franco, the "Generalisimo" had no recognition, no "TV special", no mention on the books to disclosure popular (and more scientific), no "Schindler's List," but, rather, only misinformation and denigration of his action at all levels. One more proof that history is made by the winners, not losers, and that this study is that very often, unfortunately, a lovely story, but very little true.
