Remember, a few articles later was a remark that the Area Handbook was in fact more accurate than it appeared to be at this point. Why are you always so fast in picking up anything that may show the US government to be evil, but never the USSR? -- "We are going to give a little something, a few little years more, to socialism, because socialism is defunct.

The State Department played a major role in the Vietnam War, but not in the rise of Fascist Italy. If you were talking about the Italian Government, it would another matter. (Of course, logic never has been a strong point for Tim Sevener.)
