One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter and all that. Very little had ever been heard of Francisco Javier Iglesias, father of Pablo, until he was branded a terrorist last week. Javier, in the opinion of Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo y Peralta-Ramos, the 13th Marchioness of Casa Fuerte, was (or is) a terrorist.

I won’t get involved into whether or not the Marques of Galapagar’s father was a terrorist or not ( he certainly belonged to a terrorist group ) but you are right in describing Iglesias as ultra intelligent. He can, and does run rings around all current Spanish politicians and is an expert in changing from being a rabble rousing anarquist to a suave diplomat in a matter of seconds. Anyone who underestimates him, as most have done up to now and seem to carry on doing so, are making a grave mistake. Pity his political beliefs aren’t more right winged.
