My paternal grandfather witnessed the crowd's mutilation of Mussolini's corpse. He was stationed in Italy during World War II and served with the U.S. Army Mountain Rangers, He said it was one of the most disturbing things he ever saw.
Its typical among communists. We traded harsh men who cared about their nations and punished those deserving for the very destruction of those nations.
Hitler specified that his body be burned to a crisp after his death because he was afraid that he would be pissed on, shit on, shot full of holes, and hung in a public place where the public could use his corpse as target practice. He also said that he would come back in spirit form and everybody would have to admit that he was right.
He wasn't a wannabe Hitler, he had Italy on lockdown as a fascist nation from 1922 when Hitler was still playing clockwork trains. If anything it was the other way round.
@@baruchben-david4196 Because Italy was controlled by the giuda masons, they did not want Mussolini to win, they used him to control the fascist and stop the communist revolution.
Not just the poison he spoke, but the whirlwind he created killed everyone my grandmother knew in the old country. She immigrated from Sienna as a teen during WW1. She kept in regular contact with friends and family and visited as a young adult between the wars. She went to her grave believing that someone had to have survived from the neighborhood. Nobody did. There was no record of anybody she knew after 1943.
In the 1980s I decorated a house for an old man. We got speaking and it turned out that he was in the crowd when Mussolini was killed. All of his photographs were never used, I’m sure these would be worth hundreds of thousands now for publication. Because of his position in the military and the fact that he should not have been there, he kept them. I have never seen anything on Mussolini or his girlfriend that was so graphic. Truly historic.
Hanging the bodies up by their feet in public wasnt actually to humiliate him post mortem. It was, so the Italians could see with their own eyes, that he was really dead. Tho what followed was predictable.
From what my father told me, they were hung like that to mimick a previous scene where the fascists had left the bodies of people they executed out in the open for the people to see. "You did this to us, now we do this to you."
Fun Fact: Anytime the Ice Cream machine isn't working, the McDonald's at Piazzale Loreto puts Mussolini in the window on a sign reading, "Niente Gelato per Te!", meaning, "No Ice Cream For You!"
My father's family is Italian. Being Italian, he had a very large extended family. During the war, half of them sided with Il Duce and half knew a loser when they saw him. It created a rift in the whole multi-generational family. It was intense and violent at times. There were murders, arson attacks and all manner of brawls. My father and his like minded family members saw the writing on the wall and decided to flee to Canada right when Mussolini came to power. They all stayed together and braved the constant U-boat attacks crossing during the very peak of the battle of the Atlantic. They arrived in Ontario and put down roots. The family feud still exists to this day. And here I am, one of their descendants.

Another case of dictators getting their just desserts is Samuel Doe in Liberia. He was captured by his opponents and videoed as his ears and then fingers were cut off (he was at one point forced to try and eat his fingers). After 12 hours of torture (much of it videoed) he was executed. His naked remains, covered in cigarette burns, had it's head shaved and was put on public display on the streets of Liberia's capital Monrovia.
@@theravenseye9443 This was 1990, a particularly turbulent period in the region. The video was doing the rounds on the internet for a while during the 'wild west ' era of early internet video sharing. It isn't particularly pleasant viewing, (and yes, I have seen the 'edited highlights') Doe was captured by Prince Yormie Johnson, leader of one of the factions in the countries civil war led by Charles Taylor (currently Taylor is residing in HMP Frankland in the UK, convicted of warcrimes and crimes against humanity) can be seen sipping a beer as Does ears are cut off (in context, it was to demonstrate that Doe wasn't protected by black magic) and female 'soldiers' taunt Doe. Doe had been captured by Johnson's men in the headquarters of the ECOMOG peacekeeping force. Johnsons forces drove in to the compound, disarming and executing Doe's entourage one by one outside. Doe expressed concern to the Gambian ECOMOG commander, who assessed the situation, then took cover, leaving Doe to his fate. Johnsons men entered the building, executing any remaining members of Doe's party and shooting Doe in the leg, before taking him away to be tortured and killed. 80 members of Doe's party had been killed and not a single member of the Gambian force was injured. While Taylor initiated the civil war, Johnson now decided he wanted to run the show and this led to the 'second civil war' which was based on warring tribal and ethnic factions, leading to a seven way civil war. In a later truth and reconciliation commission it was recommended that Johnson be barred from holding any governmental posts. As of 2023, he was re-elected a senator. This is a guy who had a reputation for volatility and sadism against those who dared challenge his authority. It's a seedy and sordid period and a lot of the violence is intertribal / magical belief based.

My grandfather documented the whole incident. We then loaned his entire ww2 album to the daily dispatch in East London South Africa where the album was lost for over 40 years. It was then found while they moved offices only to find that half the album had been stolen. No apologies or anything.
My Grandpa was not able to enlist because he had bad hearing, so he remained stateside. Also happy to say my Father was nowhere near Woodstock, although I think a couple of my siblings would have liked to have been there. Funny take though. 😁

My mother’s uncle was with pattons tank division and left us pictures of Mussolini hanging upside down in the town square after his execution. When he returned from the war he went out into the woods to an old hunting camp where he lived alone in isolation for over a year. When he came out he never spoke of what he’d lived thru and went on to operate a successful dairy farm until his passing.
I saw a film with George C Scott , and also a report by SS officers on how he was captured that showed the partisans basically negotiated him into their hands by using a common sense approach. We don’t want to fight and kill your men to get to his lousy soul, just point him out and on. The Germans in full retreat basically weighed the options and said he’s all your’s to the partisans. He was thrown to the wall by partisans and shot not in a gracious way along with his mistress the accounts stated along with eyewitness. He went out ugly.

This is what worries me and it's something groups like antifa, BLM, extreme LGBTQ groups never seem to understand.

This is reactionary to equivalent outrage and hence expectable, so I accept. (BEWARE of false belief!) What better should be 'the' default goal? ZERO OUTRAGE! We humans' seeming FATAL FLAW is insistence on the attempted confounding of the boss, Mother Nature, this causing us to 'never learn,' and so risking being flushed down The Tube of Failed Natural Experiments, to where many billions before us have consigned.

I am a human being, but occasionally, I allow myself to step aside for such people. Barbaric behaviour is punching low, but for such people in history, I'll take a pass. Making this a brutal, but highly enjoyable story. It's a shame that we are more civilised now, when it comes to dealing with the most inhumane. I'm sure there are many today, who wouldn't mind the odd Esso revival meeting being booked for others. Gaddafi and Hussein certainly ended up in holes, before their graves. Fitting for rats. Even Hitler didn't quite manage the dignified self deletion he envisaged. Had he chosen Esso too, he might not have gone out too early, and ended up a half done job, also in a wet hole.

Gaddafi was murdered by Hillary Cl because he was drpping the dollar for oil Today, Libya is more currupt with black men being sold as slaves, and the region was destablized. Gaddafi may not have been perfect, but he was no Mussolini or Hitler. Gaddafi was murdered for criminal reasons by an outside force. Mussolini had justice given to him by his own people
why the blurring ?? We can decide if we want to see them or not on our own, by just closing our eyes. What is the point of telling how he met a terrible end when you blur out that end. Seeing the truth would send a more powerful message of how you will end up if you act like Mussolini.
Because the You Tube Police at Google who happen to be Trump supporters will not allow the showing of any photo or video of what happens to dictators / supreme leaders who meet a very unpleasant end when their citizens catch up with them!

Yep.
Have you noticed McDonalds popularity lately❓ It is now revealing a losing US popularity. The whole globe sees the US as a horrendous problem led by losers, and quite deservedly so.

Excellent short documentary. Shame the other dictators mentioned did not get the same fitting end for their abominable crimes. Sadly, there are still many out there. Thanks RE!

Romans 6.23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Another case of dictators getting their just desserts is Samuel Doe in Liberia. He was captured by his opponents and videoed as his ears and then fingers were cut off (he was at one point forced to try and eat his fingers). After 12 hours of torture (much of it videoed) he was executed. His naked remains, covered in cigarette burns, had it's head shaved and was put on public display on the streets of Liberia's capital Monrovia.
!!!!!!!! When was this?
@@theravenseye9443 This was 1990, a particularly turbulent period in the region. The video was doing the rounds on the internet for a while during the 'wild west ' era of early internet video sharing. It isn't particularly pleasant viewing, (and yes, I have seen the 'edited highlights') Doe was captured by Prince Yormie Johnson, leader of one of the factions in the countries civil war led by Charles Taylor (currently Taylor is residing in HMP Frankland in the UK, convicted of warcrimes and crimes against humanity) can be seen sipping a beer as Does ears are cut off (in context, it was to demonstrate that Doe wasn't protected by black magic) and female 'soldiers' taunt Doe.
Doe had been captured by Johnson's men in the headquarters of the ECOMOG peacekeeping force. Johnsons forces drove in to the compound, disarming and executing Doe's entourage one by one outside. Doe expressed concern to the Gambian ECOMOG commander, who assessed the situation, then took cover, leaving Doe to his fate. Johnsons men entered the building, executing any remaining members of Doe's party and shooting Doe in the leg, before taking him away to be tortured and killed. 80 members of Doe's party had been killed and not a single member of the Gambian force was injured.
While Taylor initiated the civil war, Johnson now decided he wanted to run the show and this led to the 'second civil war' which was based on warring tribal and ethnic factions, leading to a seven way civil war.
In a later truth and reconciliation commission it was recommended that Johnson be barred from holding any governmental posts. As of 2023, he was re-elected a senator. This is a guy who had a reputation for volatility and sadism against those who dared challenge his authority.
It's a seedy and sordid period and a lot of the violence is intertribal / magical belief based.

My grandfather was not at the gas station and did not see Mussolini hung up by his feet...nor did he take any pictures
It seems like every American’s grandfather was there and their fathers were at Woodstock.
No, just one of my grandfathers, and he was in Germany, not Italy
My Grandpa was not able to enlist because he had bad hearing, so he remained stateside. Also happy to say my Father was nowhere near Woodstock, although I think a couple of my siblings would have liked to have been there. Funny take though. 😁
My ex- father in law was in the South African army and arrived when he had been strung up! I was witness to his personal photos of the event. He fought against the Desert Fox and was in the Battle of El Alamein.

@jeffjones3040 same as Donald's is to us the real American people ,DJT is IL Duce reincarnate
Just like the arrogants who imprisoned us in our homes for 2 years.
My mother’s uncle was with pattons tank division and left us pictures of Mussolini hanging upside down in the town square after his execution. When he returned from the war he went out into the woods to an old hunting camp where he lived alone in isolation for over a year. When he came out he never spoke of what he’d lived thru and went on to operate a successful dairy farm until his passing.
I saw a film with George C Scott , and also a report by SS officers on how he was captured that showed the partisans basically negotiated him into their hands by using a common sense approach.
We don’t want to fight and kill your men to get to his lousy soul, just point him out and on.
The Germans in full retreat basically weighed the options and said he’s all your’s to the partisans. He was thrown to the wall by partisans and shot not in a gracious way along with his mistress the accounts stated along with eyewitness. He went out ugly.

This is what worries me and it's something groups like antifa, BLM, extreme LGBTQ groups never seem to understand. The majority of people who support these groups just want equality but like any other group the f***wits shout the loudest. In time the msg portrayed goes from one of equality to one of us vs them. Not long after that many people who previously supported them find out their thought of as an enemy and resentment grows and grows. The end result is some right evil bastard like il dulce, Hitler, Amin I mean pick your favourite dictator comes along and says " We need to sort these people out and I'm the one to do it!"

I am a human being, but occasionally, I allow myself to step aside for such people. Barbaric behaviour is punching low, but for such people in history, I'll take a pass. Making this a brutal, but highly enjoyable story. It's a shame that we are more civilised now, when it comes to dealing with the most inhumane. I'm sure there are many today, who wouldn't mind the odd Esso revival meeting being booked for others. Gaddafi and Hussein certainly ended up in holes, before their graves. Fitting for rats. Even Hitler didn't quite manage the dignified self deletion he envisaged. Had he chosen Esso too, he might not have gone out too early, and ended up a half done job, also in a wet hole.
