Reporter: Mr. Mammijan, what do you think about the idea that all of what has been called Vasconia is the ancestral homeland of the Snefaldian people?
Mammijan: It is not an idea, of course, it is historical fact. I should say the Luwite people, though, if using their proper name.
R: Luwite only? Not the Neeri, for instance?
M: Of course not. The Neeri did not originate in the north. And the Bajeong are foreign invaders who arrived in the 15th century. The Luwite people migrated over the Velnar mountains, in waves, and it is now being confirmed through careful examination of evidence that they originated in what is now Laneria and the Caldan Union, as well as some of the smaller, more insignificant nations in the area. They called it Vasconia.
R: It must be a very exciting thing to see, as this evidence appears.
M: Naturally. Discovering where our people originated strikes at the very heart of national pride. It's only a pity there are no Luwite here to reclaim their homeland.
R: Please elaborate.
M: Well, our people were forced away, weren't they? We were forced to leave these lands and create a strong, vibrant nation in what is now Snefaldia. There are no Luwites left to retake their ancestral lands, so it of course will fall to Snefaldia to restore those lands.
R: Do you mean that Snefaldia should conquer those lands?
M: What other way to do it is there? Of course it has to be conquest, that is the way of history. One race doesn't give way voluntarily when another comes calling for their land back. We must do it by force. It's a question of the national future, our identity, of our blood and of our soil. If Snefaldia is to shape the future, with our culture and our system, we cannot do it without expanding our national idea to its natural conclusion, the return of the ancestral homelands of the Snefaldian people, those lands sung of in ancient poems and hymns, back to the embrace of our motherland."

...so now, I am advocating the violent overthrow of the state. I state a historical fact, and a reality of the historical record, and the technocrats who crow about the freedom of speech in their nation want to deny me a visa. They are always too quick to judge. What did I say in my speeches, in my interviews? Have I said I support the overthrow of the Caldan or the Excalbian governments? Have I called on the Snefaldian state to invade those lands with their armies? Of course I haven't! But I state a historical reality: that blood and soil are intrinsic to the being of the people, and that conflict over those things is natural in the defense and advancement of a nation, and they ride roughshod over my right to speak.
It's a dangerous time, isn't it, when bureaucrats are willing to twist the words of scholars because because what I say is inconvenient. Let's discuss the fate of all the native peoples displaced and murdered when the foreign invaders whose children now rule in, say, Excalbia, Laneria, Caldas, and Leagran. Will I be permitted to discuss those historical injustices or will a call for their justice be the grounds on which my visas are revoked?
Let us be perfectly clear: this is hypocrisy of the highest order, saying "we defend the right to speak" and then turning round to say "but only those things that are acceptable to us are you permitted to say!" If the Minister of State thinks she's going to cow me in staying silent by inventing lies about me calling for the overthrown of the Excalbian state, she needs to think twice."
