I repeat, I never said Clancy says bad things about Spanish, but wrong ones... I haven't to apollogice to him.
And yes, Arnavisca is my favourite team menber in Rainbow Six game
Unfortunatelly, the Spanish civil war was the field of training of the German army... and the Legion Condor and the bombing of Guernica is one of the worst pages in our history...
The famous Picasso picture "el Guernica" is a tribute to that...

Well, that example about the Stukas is a great mistake: he invented the Park (the real is no in Barcelona, but in Tarragona, a city close), and he invented the atraction. There isn't any atraction in any Park in Spain about Stukas... so, Clancy invented the atraction and then he critics the Spanish for having bad memory and create an atraction about Stukas...
Rainbow Six begins with Spanish terrorists kidnaping an American 777!
That is one thing that Spanish terrorists never did. In fact, they have been allways very carefull about attacking foreign citizens in order to mantain the international opinion away.
And never kidnaped a plane. But is a novel, is not much important despite is suposed to be as acurate as possible to reality...
But then is when they say that the terrorist will be in a jail in America, and John Clark thinks that they (the terrorists) should consider themselves lucky because in Spain the thing would be worst!!
Spanish jails are not famous precisely for being dangerous and the Spanish police is very carefull when dealing with terrorists because they use any sign of abuse of force to denounce torture...
And I will finish with this point because is completely off-topic and I'm sure many people is boring with this.
And yes, Spain lives with football. Is called here "el deporte Rey" (the King sport). I don't understand why, because we are world champions in handball, indoor-soccer, waterpolo, medallist in basket; F1, motoGP and Rallie and tennis champions... but the entire country paralizes when we play football!!
I do love football and i practice it. (well soccer for the Americans)
About the world cup... we decided to get Zidane his last oportunity...
(joking), I don't know why, but we allways go to World cups and Eurocups as one of the favourites... and allways go home after the first round...
