[edit] Ronda was the place where republicans murdered nationalists, by pushing them off the cliffs.
Just the opposite of the "facts" of the article.
This is exactly what Hemmingway describes in his book. The event really took place during the first days of the civil war, before the republicans tasted the nationalists revenge.
The Spanish republican hero in Hemmingways book (Pilar's husbend) describes the massacre, and has some remorse about it. Especially because some of the victims were ordinary peace-loving citizens (while others were bloody aristocrats). The event is described as taking place in a Castilla town, but the cliff-throwing event matches the Ronda story. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.8.117.126 (talk) 15:05, 26 February 2007 (UTC).
