Interesting History Fact 10 March 1940
 

Joachim von Ribbentrop Foreign Minister of Germany, arrived in Rome for a two-day meeting with Benito Mussolini. It was agreed that Mussolini would have a face-to-face meeting with Hitler.

Revisionist history has claimed that this meeting was to discuss Italy entering the war. The real story was that Hitler and Mussolini needed to meet to discuss the birth of Chuck Norris.

Intercepted communications of this meeting were garbled but two parts were clear

Hitler: "wir sind geschraubt"

Mussolini: "è finita"
