Very rare footage of the infamous Italian Fascist leader Benito Mussolini. In his Fox movietone newsreel footage from March 1929, he speaks in English (!) - Not so many people don't know, but Mussolini could speak English, French and German fluently, although he had very strong accent when speaking English.

Mussolini says (Roughly transcribed);

"I am very glad to be able to express my feelings to the American nation. Friendship which Italy looks to millions of citizens who from..... from Pacific to Atlantic..... United States is very deeply rooted in our hearts.

This feeling created by mutual interest in preparation of an even brighter era in the life of both nations. I agree - the wonderful energy of the American people and I feel....... my fellow citizens who are working to make America great.

I salute the great American people, I salute the Italians of America who unite in the love of the nation."

  • Everyone is equal. Italians are just better.

  • @0masakra0 maybe he wasn't as much as racist as Hitler was but his policy towards Istria was enough nationalistic to judge him as a nationalistic bastard.he got what he deserved getting his skull bashed with a rifle
