To the Arab Population
By Benito Mussolini
Our august, great, powerful Sovereign, His Majesty King Vittorio Emanuele III, who the Supreme God graciously protects and whom all the people deeply love, deigned to send me to this definitively Italian land. I know that you are obedient to the laws of my august Lord and King.
So be it today, tomorrow and forever. By obeying the august Sovereign of Italy, you will be protected by its just laws. His Majesty the King and the Italian government, which I have the honor of presiding over, desire that this land—which is filled with so many immortal remains of Rome—return to being rich, prosperous and happy. May the Supreme God of peace and war protect you.
Long live the King! Long live the King! Long live the King!
