One goal of this channel is to teach people that much of what they learned in school and from news media is false. A good example is propaganda that Italian leader Benito Mussolini was a dictator. This is false, Italy’s dictator during World War II was Victor Emmanuel III who appointed Mussolini as prime minister in 1922 then dismissed and arrested him in 1943. He was king of Italy and part of European royalty so was excused from blame for bloody events. His commoner henchman Benito Mussolini was deemed responsible and characterized as an evil dictator. Victor Emmanuel was never charged with war crimes and this axis dictator remained king of Italy until 1946 when he retired to live in luxury in British held Alexandria.

Very interesting. I like this classic quote from Mussolini:
“If I am moving forward follw me. If I am standing still push me.
If I am moving backward shoot me.”
In the Spanish War of Independence against the French, in the middle of combat, a Spanish soldier asks his captain: “Sir, in case of retreat, where are we going?” To which the captain answers: “To the cemetery!”
