After WWII, a lot of fascists were more comfortable in a country that tolerated (and for a while even practiced) fascism because they were so unwelcome (to put it mildly)Quote:

And, in those two countries (Italy and France), the fascisti had money to buy their way into Argentina. Germans did too, although most of them died before they got a chance to get over there.
Prior to the war, Argentina was a place that Italian immigrants went to flee persecution. So not all of the Italian or German names from Argentina are descendants of the
losers of WWII. It was just a place that immigrants in if they had money.

1. Cory Joseph should be back up PG the rest of the season(after 1 good game)
2. Why isn't Mills the 2nd string PG(after his first game back)
3. Splitter and Ayres for Greg Monroe at trade deadline
4. Jeff Ayres trade for Andray Blatche
5. Why is Ayres still on the team? The FO are idiots
6. Manu should've retired in the offseason
