A nice comparison

Read Benito Mussolini's Fascist Manifesto. There is not a SINGLE ONE of the seventeen policies that would apply to radical Islam. Not one! I highly doubt any radical Muslim wants the secular state to seize all the possessions of the Islamic clergy or to grant women's suffrage; radical Islam is closer to the complete opposite of fascism than it is to being a form of it.

Note that one of the line items of the Fascist Manifesto is "A national policy intended to peacefully further the Italian national culture in the world."

Only a fool would believe that the next Fascists will come wearing blackshirts and speaking Italian.

Obviously only a fool would believe that the United States is even close to becoming a fascist state. The United States hasn't even taken the first steps towards seizing the possessions of the religious congregations and the abolition of all the bishoprics. We don't even have the slightest hope of abolishing the Senate yet.
