Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Mussolini had a lifelong fear of the Evil Eye and refused to sit beside anyone he suspected possessed this sinister influence;Www@QuestionHome@Com

Mussolini feared the evil eye and he was not alone!. It was and still is a potent symbol of bad luck and evil events in Italy and Sicily!. Mussolini frequently was seen to ward off the evil eye is by using a hand gesture known as the "Italian horn" or "corno", a hand with index and little finger extended!. That gesture has been used since Roman times as a way to protect oneself from malocchia, the curse of the evil eye!.

Another way to protect yourself is to wear a charm, usually made of red coral, in the shape of the corna!. This is thought to bring good luck and protection from other evils as well!. Mussolini wore one at all times, around his wrist or his neck, and it was commented upon by British and American diplomats who met him in the 1920s and 30s!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
