Mussolini. He tried, but......

Joke. He lost every fight he started because his army didn't want to fight.

Really? I've never heard of a leader without blood on his hands.

Blood can be spoiled for justice not revenge, self defense not invasion, sincerity in a leader is the most important trait he has to have.

I just I was wrong to assume these sayings of mine translate of well. By "blood on hands" I mean to indicate injustice in a killing, not necessarily that killing has taken place. But I agree with you sincerity is an incredibly important trait.
