Mussolini: The Rise And Fall Of The Dictator Who Wanted A New Roman Empire | Full Documentary

Papa Doc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n28SNnGNAzM His speeches leave Italy bewitched. But behind all Benito Mussolini’s bluster and posturing lies a dark heart of violence and brutality. This is the story of Il Duce, the Boss and how his love of Italy inspires an epic rise to power…but whose devotion to inflicting fear ultimately brings his country to its knees. He beats and rapes women, orders his fascist black shirts to beat and kill his political opponents, yet his loved at home and admired abroad. Churchill calls him a genius whilst President Roosevelt says he is ‘deeply impressed by him’. He famously reduces unemployment and makes the trains run on time. But he then ruthlessly drops mustard gas on Libya and Ethiopia, becomes enthralled by Adolf Hitler and his ideas and drags his country into a war they are hopelessly unprepared for - and becomes complicit in the Holocaust. -- Welcome to the official Get.factual youtube channel! 🌍 We are a documentary streaming channel covering history, science, technology, and nature.
