My grandfather was a prominate European fascist and served with Mussolini... He left our family broke and hungry, I know first hand that's where this delusion lead.

Most wealth and land was appropriated with the fall of the fascists, famine forced the family to migrate, we learned to work with our former enemies, enemies became family and friends, I maybe wrong but I think this is a common post war European story.
