Jarres Goes For It

?How is all this turmoil in Europe affecting the flow of Jews, into Palistine?.
IIRC It wasn't till the Arab riots of the 30's, that Britian started tightening up on the numbers allowed, and cracking down on Illegal Imigration.
 
What is the response from other Fascist Internationale backed nations?
Are they sending assisting forces?

No, conspicuous silence on their parts. Finland is suffering from a fair degree of turmoil, and Hungary is willing to abandon Mussolini et al to their fate- Horthy knows which way the wind is blowing.

@DuQuense: little change yet. If anything, Jews in Europe are staying put
 
Pius XI and a number of Cardinals escaped from Rome on 12th October 1926, and made for the coast. He was taken by a fishing vessel out to sea, where the Maltese Premier Ugo Mifsud received him on a British naval vessel out of Valletta (the choice of a Catholic British politician was a key diplomatic move). Other cardinals managed to flee south, whilst some stayed resolutely put.

By the 14th, the Conspiracy of La Spezia clearly had the upper hand. Milan had fallen, and so had Turin. Sicily was in Campioni's hands. In Hungary, Horthy said not a word.

In Austria meanwhile, the battles were getting bloodier. On the 13th October, Seipel's men shelled the working class district of Meidling.
 
By the way, I think I might take this TL up to 1927 and then take a break. I need some fresh thinking, and wouldn't mind switching for a little bit to the Middle Ages for a change.
 
"This is Radio Wien, it is 1300 hours Central European Time, 1200 hours in London, and 0700 hours in New York. The news now.

Chancellor Seipel has declared the Marxist insurgency to be over. Speaking at Floridsdorf, scene of brutal attacks by Bolsheviks on this nation's custodians, he praised the efforts of the police, army, Heimswehr and our Tyrolean brothers in quelling the violence. He announced that President Hainisch has agreed the ban the SPO and other groups linked to the trouble.

In other news, Italy is experiencing further ..."
 
By the 25th October 1926, Austria was returning to some sort of normality. 1400 were dead; the SPO leadership was mostly exiled or imprisoned. Stresemann was handily turning a blind eye.

Seipel was by now in no mood to make any further concessiosn to Germany. Terrified of socialism and liberalism alike, he intended to keep Austria independent and Catholic. To this end, he decided the next move was to become friendly towards Admiral Horthy.
 
Just read this all the way through - well done, sir, very enjoyable. :D Hope to see it continued.

Mussolini is indefatigable. You can't put him down, he's practically undead. :eek: I wonder what his course of action will be now? I doubt Horthy will take him back. Where to run? Finland? Assuming he gets away, of course...
