When in the middle of World War II Italy of her own will overthrew her leaders and joined the free world in repelling Nazism, she paid a heavy price for her courage: allies who had been guests on her soil suddenly became spited foes and occupiers. The retreating Germans reacted with acts of unspeakable barbarity from one end of Italy to the other, burning the Roman ships of Nemi, wantonly destroying the fountain of Pesaro, destroying churches and cultural monuments — and, as here remembered, killing civilians in what can only be described as acts, if not a policy, of terrorism.
