Falanigster angriper carlister 1942

[Marcus]

Apropå diskussionerna om politiska grupper i Spanien, ett exempel på ett attentat mot carlister av falanigster 1942, med andra ord fem år efter det bildades en enhetsorganisation, förvisso en organisation för alla fick underordna sig Francos reaktionära styre men i teorin var de nu samma organisation.

Despite the official unification of the various Nationalist factions within the party in 1937, tensions continued between dedicated Falangists and other groups, particularly Carlists. Such tensions erupted in violence with the Begoña Incident of August 1942, when hardline Falangist activists attacked a Carlist religious gathering in Bilbao with grenades. The attack and the response of Carlist government ministers (most notably Varela and Galarza) led to a government crisis and caused Franco to dismiss several ministers. Ultimately, six Falangists were convicted of the attack and one, Juan Domínguez, was executed.
