These posts are based on a text from the Isolated Case portal - text that today has disappeared from the web─, and that based its content on a bill that did not prosper and that Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (ERC) presented in 2017 in Congress. The ERC initiative sought the "recognition of all victims of dictatorship and recovery of Historical Memory. For the Republicans, the Historical Memory law enacted in 2007 by the Government of José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero was insufficient, by not taking into account "all the "retaliated persons" or granting them the "legal status of victims." He group also missed the qualification of 'Crimes against Humanity' for "those carried out with impunity by the Franco regime" or the withdrawal of decorations "awarded to criminals for being criminals." This bill aimed to introduce a series of reforms in the Law of Historical Memory, among them, the one that has been distorted─ according to ERC has explained to Newtral.es, to give rise to the hoax. The specific measure, is found in the modification of article 10 which, in its new wording, established an amount of 135,000 euros "to the beneficiaries of all who died due to Franco's repression in their fight against Francoism until December 27, 1978. This article continues to recognize "the work of armed organizations anti-Francoists against the dictatorship and in favor of the restoration of the democratic legality", as well as the need to grant these people a economic compensation. ![\\"origin](\\"\\") Someone who heard from a neighbor who had read it somewhere: the origin of the hoax about Haitians who eat pets ## Where does the 4.5 billion come from? Throughout the bill, at no time is there any mention of an amount economic for the members of these terrorist organizations, even less the figure of 4.5 billion euros referred to in the Caso text Isolated. An approximate figure to this is the one used by the Government of Mariano Rajoy to veto the ERC proposal, as reported by Europa Press in 2017. According to the PP Executive, raising to 135,000 euros the amounts that the 31,656 beneficiaries of benefits derived from the Civil War were already collecting at that time moment would have increased the expense to 4,273.56 million euros. The Government de Rajoy considered "ambiguous" other provisions included in the ERC proposal. From Esquerra they assure that with "armed anti-Franco organizations" there is no referred to ETA or FRAP, but to the maquis, the guerrillas who followed fighting Francoism after the Civil War. Unidas Podemos presented in July 2018, a similar initiative to provide reparation to victims of Francoism and the Transition that did not prosper either. The text they wrote from The purple group makes it clear that the recognition they ask for also refers "to the members of the Guerrilla Army and the Anti-Franco Guerrilla." ![\\"illa](\\"\\") The ERC bases approve investing Salvador Illa as president of the Generalitat Sources * Proposal for a Law on Recognition of all victims of the dictatorship and Recovery of Historical Memory.
