...granddaughter of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco, married her Salvadoran boyfriend in what was no doubt an appropriately austere ceremony. In the other, considerably more rambunctious celebration, an actress playing Leticia arrived at the wedding scene in a convertible driven by a Moorish guard (complete with requisite fez). Greeted with fascist salutes and the extravagant leering of a pompous archbishop, the lovely bride was given away by the familiarly paunchy figure of the caudillo himself, "resurrected" for the occasion by a local comedic theater troupe...
...sued the tabloid for invasion of privacy after it posted video footage of him involved in what it frothily described as a "depraved Nazi-style orgy in a torture dungeon." Mosley admitted to participating in the orgy with five hookers but denied any Nazi overtones. The son of 1930s fascist Sir Oswald Mosley and Nazi sympathizer Lady Diana Mitford testified that, in fact, he finds Nazism unerotic. "All my life, I have had hanging over me my antecedents, my parents, and the last thing I want to do in some sexual context is be reminded of it," Mosley said...
...leads has long flirted with secession, even while he and his lieutenants have served key ministerial posts in three governments of the Italian Republic. But his latest act of national scorn has brought down the fury of Berlusconi's other key ally, lower-house president Gianfranco Fini, whose post-Fascist past makes him the leader of the most explicitly patriotic faction in the three-month-old government.

When the government, flailing into dictatorship, incarcerates the sufferers in an abandoned hospital, the doctor's wife feigns blindness and goes with him. Though the government has turned fascist, and sets armed guards around the hospital perimeter, it allows only patients inside; there they must create their own, very fallible social system, trying to keep some semblance of order and humanity while facing an overthrow from the blind ruffians in another ward...
...Israel or Jews, but immigrants. During Berlusconi's last government, Fini was coauthor with rightist Northern League ally Umberto Bossi of a series of severe anti-immigration measures, including instant deportations and requirements that foreigners must have a fixed job to remain in the country. The next time fascist nostalgics or neo-Nazis attack a defenseless man on the street, there is a high probability it will be an immigrant. Such assaults in the past have indeed been aimed at immigrants. And that too is part of Mussolini's legacy...
