Cornel, And how could you miss our very own Fascist in your list?
The 'honorable' Antonio de Oliveira Salazar was like the other three, also profoundly Roman Catholic. If it were not for the eminent Goan, Prof Froilano De Melo and a few Goans of his eminence who challenged Salazar on the downgrading of equal Portuguese nationality that the Government of the Marquis de Pombal so magnanimously granted Goans in the 18th century, not many Goans outside of Portugal would be Portuguese nationals today.

Words like "fascist" are used loosely by many but also rigorously by scholars. For now, I would prefer to refer to just three particular fascists as firmly recognised in history texts. They were Hitler, Franco and Mussolini. All three were profoundly Roman Catholic much to the chagrin of Gilbert Lawrence of course.
