This was not surprising since at the height of Mussolini's reign, in 1938, one in three adult Jews were members of the Fascist Party. This amounted to 10,000 Jews out of Italy's small Jewish population of 47,000.
Maybe try to learn history.

Membership in the Fascist party being required for government employment and contracting, it’s not surprising 1 in 4 Jews were members.
What you and the author leave out is that there were no free elections in Italy after the early 1920s, none after the Acerbo laws of 1925.
In the show elections of the 1930s the Fascists routinely got 95% plus, but if the Jews elected Mussolini gets you off, and if it defines your view of Jews, by all means go for it
