Reading Experience:

Evidence:

The Daily Telegraph interview with Mussolini makes me sick. What fools they are. Every word M. said was just vague nonsense: anyone who knows Italians can see how he just thinks us fools to be diddled till Sanctions are got rid of and then he has a clear hand - and one can read it in every line: and the D.T. distorts it all into all sorts of peaceful promises.
