Fascist leader Mussolini

She fought the Fascists of Italy during WW II

She joined the resistance as a youth,at age 14,joining the democratic armed group called “Giustizia e Libertà”(Justice and Liberty). Her father Edoardo Fallaci, a cabinet maker in Florence, was a political activist who fought against the dictatorship of Italian fascist leader Benito Mussolini.He was captured and tortured by the nazis when they conquered Italy. It was then that Fallaci was first exposed to the atrocities of war.

Almost killed by the Brutal Mexican Police

During the 1968 Tlatelolco massacre, prior to the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, Fallaci was shot three times, dragged down stairs by her hair, and left for dead by Mexican police.

What was the 1968 Tlatelolco Massacre?

It was the murder of 200-300 Mexican students in Tlatelolco Plaza,Mexico City,who were protesting against the Mexican government.It happened a few days before the beginning of the Olympics.


An Affair with one of those she Interviewed

In the early 1970s Fallaci had an affair with Alexandros Panagoulis, who was a solitary,brave figure in the Greek resistance against the 1967 dictatorship, having been captured, heavily tortured and imprisoned for his failed assassination attempt on dictator and ex-Colonel Georgios Papadopoulos. Panagoulis died in 1976, under controversial circumstances, in a road accident. Fallaci maintained that Panagoulis was assassinated by the Greek military and her book Un Uomo (A Man) was inspired by his life.

Famous Interview with Henry Kissinger

During her 1972 interview with Henry Kissinger, Kissinger agreed that the Vietnam War was a “useless war” and compared himself to “the cowboy who leads the wagon train by riding ahead alone on his horse.” Kissinger later wrote that it was “the single most disastrous conversation I have ever had with any member of the press.”


Famous Interview with Khomeini

During her 1979 interview with Ayatollah Khomeini, she took off her chador(black veil) in front of him.It is recounted in the 26 September 1979 edition of the Corriere della Sera:

Here is a part:

Oriana Fallaci:

“I still have to ask you a lot of things. About the chador, for example, which I was obliged to wear to come and interview you, and which you impose on Iranian women…… I am not only referring to the dress but to what it represents, I mean the apartheid Iranian women have been forced into after the revolution.

They cannot study at the university with men, they cannot work with men, they cannot swim in the sea or in a swimming-pool with men. They have to do everything separately, wearing their chador. By the way, how can you swim wearing a chador?”
