Oriana Fallaci, who went from being an anti-Fascist soldier at the end of WWII to being the Euro version of Louis Farrakhan at the end of her life, has died. I suppose just as college Trotskyites become the intellectual shills for reflexive militarism in their prime, so too is it a short step from fighting Mussolini to adopting his ideals later in life.

Oriana was an anti-fascist in 1943 and an anti-fascist in 2006.

She may well have believed that. As I said, it's a thin line....
