Benito Mussolini was the closest thing to Abraham Lincoln and Moses in the 20th century if there ever was such a person. Bottom line is, Mussolini was a slave abolitionist and a founder of a Religion like Muhammad (he just was more kind) , and a Prophet like Moses (just more gentle) and altruistic like Jesus (just more against slavery, and Jesus didn't have much success until centuries after his death).
Arguably Benito was more successful than Christ during his lifetime. Sure, he was hung upside down and used as target practice. But Jesus wore a crown of thorns and was nailed to a bit of wood. It happens to the best of us. The Duce had not a diploma or qualifications or military might and shed no blood and received no votes yet became Prime minister and replaced Democracy with God's gift to man (Fascism).
To me that alone is success, not to mention creating independent Vatican City state, making Saint Francis of Assisi patron Saint of Italy, having friends like Nobel peace prize winner Tagore and Gandhi, creating economic miracles in multiple countries, saving Spain from Communist takeover, getting shot in the face and surviving five assasination attempts, creating jobs, lowering unemployment, and putting more money in everyone's pockets. That's a remarkable person with extremely rare gifts for accomplishing what would be impossible for well over 99% of leaders.
He and Abraham Lincoln were also killed in cold blood without trial despite being innocent of war crimes.
Benito Mussolini abolished some of the worst treatment of black Africans I ever heard of. The Ethiopian Empire practiced the most barbaric slavery I know of during Benito's lifetime. After the battle of Adwa for instance, Emperor Menelik amputated a hand and a foot off every black prisoner and they crawled to a river to drink water and slowly die without food or healthcare and exposure to the elements.
Slavery in Ethiopia existed for centuries, going as far back as 1495 B.C. 20th century Ethiopian Emperors owned thousands of slaves.
Benito put an end to such practices and brought Ethiopia better health care and education as an Italian colony which officially made him Caesar of a resurrected Roman Empire.
Another reason Benito invaded Ethiopia was to rule the house of Solomon. King Solomon had many wives, and one was the Queen of Sheba from Ethiopia. Their son became the first Ethiopian Emperor of the house of Solomon. The Ethiopian Empire was essentially another Israel, dynasty of King David, fascinating place to Mussolini , with the Lion of Judah, the star of David, the cross on it's flag...
Benito saw ancient Israel , the bride of Yahweh, as the Fascist state in all but name. Israel means Mussolini, for Mussolini became Jacob, and Jacob became Israel, and his descendents became the first fascist state, so the Duce wished to be Caesar of three Israel's.
The Catholic Church claimed to be Israel, so Benito gave the Catholic Church land for their own fascist nation, Vatican City state , with the Lateral treaty, 1929. Mussolini created Israel, for he wished to be like King Cyrus the great and build Israel.
With his conquest of Ethiopia he was officially 20th century Caesar
