Nutbar Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi (may his spellings be many) tried to shake down Italy for some protection money following riots in Libya, and Beautiful Atrocities notices this eye-opening response from Benito Mussolini’s granddaughter Alessandra.
Mussolini was speaking after Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi threatened further attacks on Italians if Tripoli’s compensation claim for decades of colonisation remained unheeded.
“If it hadn’t been for my grandfather they would still be riding camels with turbans on their heads,” said Mussolini, whose far-right political group has signed a pre-election pact with Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi ahead of April 9 polls.
“They are the ones who should be paying us compensation, because it was a positive colonisation. Fascism exported democracy, as well as roads, houses and schools,” she said.
