dude was a degenerate born a Catholic, declared himself to be an atheist and openly claimed that Jesus was an insane person. he once told his cabinet that "Islam was a more effective religion than Christianity" and that the "papacy was a malignant tumor in the body of Italy and must 'be rooted out once and for all because there was no room in Rome for both the Pope and himself". I'm just highlighting how openly disgusting and power hungry this guy was. ... his degeneracy also pushed him to openly call for " socialists who accepted religious marriage to be expelled from the party". Mussolini also stated that Fascism would never raise a "Jewish Question" and in an article he wrote he stated "Italy knows no antisemitism and we believe that it will never know it," and then elaborated, "let us hope that Italian Jews will continue to be sensible enough so as not to give rise to antisemitism. in fact, On several occasions, Mussolini spoke positively about Jews and the Zionist movement. In 1934, Mussolini supported the establishment of the Betar Naval Academy in Civitavecchia to train Zionist cadets under the direction of Ze'ev Jabotinsky, while arguing that a Jewish state would be in Italy's interest. ...just another power hungry Crypto-jew in the end. fuck that guy.
