    All seems a bit remote to me. If he'd been clubbed with it & blood was present,maybe. Propaganda if you ask me. Stewy S

    Hard to understand why they would have used one of those jamamatics in the first place, when better ones were available.

    Hello,
    According to some research (not mine), Mussolini has never been killed by italian partisans, but he was shot dead by a british agent named Max Salvadori, sent to Italy from Britain in order to collect two letters sent in 1940 by Churchill to his friend Benito, giving him some good advices on how take on the french...etc....pretty embarrasing at the end of the war....
    Where's the truth ?.......we'll never know for sure...
    Thanks
