Several weeks ago, you mentioned the term FASCIST in a condescending manner. You are wrong to do this. The three official fascist leaders of the 1930's and 1940's, Mussolini of Italy, Franco of Spain and Salazar of Portugal were not antisemites and protected the Jews during WWII. Mussolini and the Italian people, were not antisemites and when Hitler asked him to hand over all of the Italian Jews for deportation to Nazi-occupied Austria, he flatly said no. It was only until late in the war, when Mussolini was militarily weak and the Nazis occupied Italy that Jews were deported. Franco was the same way despite the fact that the members of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade who fought on the side of the Republic in 1936 were Jews from the lower east side of Manhattan and despite the fact that the German Luftwaffe bombed Guernica to help Spain with its Basque terrorist problem. He refused all Nazi orders to deliver Spanish Jews to Vichy France. Salazar permitted a diplomat, Aristides de Sousa Mendes, to establish a pipeline for Jews to escape from southern France, through Spain to Portugal to wait out the war with the cooperation of Franco. Mendes is listed at Yad Vashem as a righteous gentile. Who cares how Mussolini treated the Libyans or Ethiopians or especially the Albanian Muslim Nazis? We should have had more fascists in Europe in those days; we wouldn't have lost as many Jews!
