Look this "gentleman" , Juan Antonio Samaranch:
Now let's see.. for you to understand it, to say that Samaranch is (or even was) a Fascist would like saying that anyone who ever held a charge in the last years of the Republic of Yugoslavia, was a Maoist.

That was during one of the last governments of General Franco, which was made up in its most part by Christian-Democrat Technocrats, and who were the ones who organized the transition to a Liberal democracy.

Besides, Franco's regime was not "Fascist" but Social-Conservative.

In the video they says that he was appointed as Governor of Catalonia, which he was not. He was appointed in 1973 as Government Deputy for the Province of Barcelona. There is a difference in that detail because the execution of the terrorist which the video implies him in.
