1. See my next two postings about the Italian elections of 1922.

2. False analogy.  The State Department played a major role in the
Vietnam War, but not in the rise of Fascist Italy.  If you were talking
about the Italian Government, it would another matter.  (Of course,
logic never has been a strong point for Tim Sevener.)
