| Message | It is obvious that multiparty democracy, which we have tolerated for now in the hope it could be moderated, is nothing more than the road to the tyrannical rule of the largest political parties. Only the sacred, god-given authority of the Imperial Family can defend the masses from the dictatorship of politicians. |
