Entry: D'Annunzio, Mussolini, and the Fate of Empires Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/dannunzio_mussolini_and_the_fate_of_empires#5418 Post contents: @ Mr. Earley Your correction is well taken. I could be completely wrong, reminescing from the times when I heard Italian soldiers telling us that Graziani was " il Maresciale senza coglioni". Italians, when motivated, are excellent fighters. Those who participated in guerrilas (mostly Communist) in the Balkans were superb guerrilleros. Of course, as Luigi Brazini explains, they are not normally inclined to risk their lives for some abstract common causes. Sent at: 2008 08 21
