Unknown and Essential. Forgers and the Libertarian Underground

Greetings readers. Here we go again bringing you a range of information concerning the libertarian guerrilla war. First up today, an article about the Málaga-based “Los Pataletes” group. I have built up a fair amount of new information about them and intended to update my earlier entry. But the fact is that when I made to consult the “Andalusian Miscellany” of which it was part, I discovered that the articles published in Diagonal, can no longer be accessed on the net through that server. So I am going to reassess my plans and will try to redeem as much as I can and include them in my entries in El Salto. Given the significant amount of the new material, I shall try to post older entries and punctuate them with newer ones at the rate of at least two per month.
