FalangeAlso known as Falange Española. Former Spanish Fascist Party, founded in 1933 by José Antonio Primo de Rivera (1903–1936), son of military ruler Miguel Primo de Rivera. It was closely modelled in programme and organization on the Italian fascists and on the Nazis. In 1937, when Franco assumed leadership, it was declared the only legal party, and altered its name to Traditionalist Spanish Phalanx. How to thank TFD for its existence?

Galloway harked back to the 1982 massacre of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon by Falange militiamen under the encouragement of then Israeli Gen.
