-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

What was Franco's middle east policy?
I never knew about it, I didn't really think Franco cared much about the middle east in general
Franco has a utilitarian policy regarding the middle East, his commandment of Moroccan troops early in his career probably played a role. Since the Moroccan colonial troops are well treated and played a role in winning the civil war, Franco also granted more political freedom within the Spanish Protectorate . He is also a catholic so his antisemitism drove his policy regarding the treatment of Spanish Jews and not recognizing Israel for the majority of his tenure.
So pretty bad.
As for the PSOE, they refused to call a widespread uprising of the Moroccans in the beginning of the civil war because half of the country is ruled by France, the Republicans don't want to alienate France and its control over the territories.
