FASCISM MAKING A BIG COMEBACK IN ITALY: NOT GOOD NEWS
Italy Lifts Postwar Ban on Return of Royal Males By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ROME, July 11 (AP) ˜ Italy's male royalty, banned from entering the country since 1948, may finally be allowed home, after Parliament today lifted a constitutional ban imposed as punishment for the family's support of Mussolini.
The House of Savoy, exiled for 56 years mainly in Switzerland, has battled to overturn the ban, calling it a human rights violation. The royals have renounced any claim to the throne, and many Italians say they would not be bothered by their return.
"I want to express my joy and that of my son for this brilliant success," Victor Emmanuel, 65, son of Italy's last king, Umberto II, told Italian state television from his villa on the French island of Corsica.
The action today in the lower Chamber of Deputies was the last of four successful votes ˜ two in each house of Parliament ˜ needed to amend the postwar Constitution, which bars male members of the House of Savoy from Italian soil.
One possible glitch remains, however. The second round of parliamentary voting failed to garner a two-thirds majority, so a referendum on the question could be called if supported by enough voters or legislators. Experts say this appears unlikely.
Victor Emmanuel was 9 when he left Italy. His son, Emmanuel Filiberto, now 30, was born and reared in Switzerland, and has never been to Italy.
The ban came shortly after World War II, when Italians looked for culprits for the devastation their country suffered during Fascist rule and the war. Among those deemed guilty was King Victor Emmanuel III, a figurehead monarch during Mussolini's rule.
On May 9, 1946, Victor Emmanuel abdicated in favor of his son Umberto II. But Umberto lasted only a month before a referendum in which Italians voted to scrap the monarchy and make the country a republic. Two years later, the new Constitution barred Umberto and his male descendants from Italy.

The Royal House of Savoy An Introduction
From its earliest memory, their history would plunge the Savoys time and again into the very vortex of European conflict and intrigue. Yet, amazingly, they almost always succeeded in extricating their dynasty from disaster or near-disaster, to continue their royal procession through the centuries. http://www.regalis.com/reg/savhistory.htm
In 1577 a Jesuit seminary was opened at Lucerne, Switzerland, allegedly to counter the activities of John Calvin and the Protestants centered in Geneva, but there is some evidence to suggest that it was more a move to bring influence from the Milanese black nobility families into Switzerland, and to conspire with the Italian Savoy black nobility families against others in Italy seeking to undermine the government. http://www.sullybuttes.net/users/teacher/notable.htm
