A movement to rehabilitate the legacy of Benito Mussolini as an Italian hero is gathering momentum, breaking a 50-year taboo surrounding Italy's fascist leader.
Today, a resurgent nationalism has continued to gloss over the more shameful parts of Italian history, while at the same time allowing fascist apologists to exalt Italy's most notorious 20th leader.
A interesting article. Somewhat frighting in that the word " nationalism " is being used. This is the same format Hitler used in creating the Nazi Party. Create a sense of one pride, one country, one language, one flag, that is Nationalism. This is the seed to creating another revolution not only in Italy but in Germany. I have worked in both countries and I can tell you that this sense of pride is still there waiting for the day to come that this ideology to take center stage once more.
However, at the same time, I do wish that Americans had a sense of " Nationalism " here. And it still might come to that, and if it does, it might be too late,,, Until then, Press 1 for English.
