Excerpt from The Question of the Adriatic: Fiume, Rieka
Fiume, that gem of the Quarnero, is very Italian. That town has given herself spontaneously to Italy, as independent town and on the basis of the right of the nations to dispose of themselves - say the Italians.
The town of Fiume, with her immediate territory is a geographical, ethnical and historical dependence of Croatia (Yougoslavia). She has her municipal Statute which does not confer to her the character of an autonomous town. She has never been independent. The majority of her inhabitants belong to the Croatian nationality (Yougoslave). She is soldered to Croatia like Marseille - which was a Greek colony - is soldered to France. Allow her to express her opinion freely, and she will vote her incorporation to the country to which she belongs and which constitutes her unique national and economical raison d'etre , answer the Yougoslavs.
Our adversaries and we, we do not speak the same language. All the primordial rules of historical fairness are turned upside down. A vast tissue of mystifications forms the thread of a policy of purely economical imperialism. The voice of truth is stifled by the clamours of propagandists without any scrupules, and, alas by the voice of a nation, badly informed and fanatized in viewed of future political schemes.
Let us see an example of this systematic mystification.
