All those "infoibate" truths about the massacres wanted by Tito.

From the new American president who admires Tito to the decoration of the Quirinale still pinned on the Marshal's chest, up to the foibe discovered in Slovenia, the denied justice and the outrages to the martyrs of the...
45 years ago the Treaty of Osimo
November 10, 1975, Treaty of Osimo: if September 8 outrages you, this date should make you scream with rage by Davide Rossi and Lorenzo Salimbeni - 10/11/2020 Source: l'Adige The end of the First World War in November 1918 did not mean the immediate pacification of the Continent, tormented by nationalist claims eager to overturn the borders and by revolutionary ferments inspired by the Bolshevik revolution. Gabriele d'Annunzio's expedition to Fiume at the head of his legionaries represented for Italy the most striking appendix of the conflict, while military missions were located in various crisis areas (Carinthia, Silesia, etc.) and a significant...
Anachronistic red star in Fiume
The decision by Mayor Vojko Obersnel to place a giant red star on a city skyscraper, as part of the initiatives of Rijeka European Capital of Culture 2020, has caused dismay not only among many residents of the capital of Carnaro, but also within the world of Istrian, Rijeka and Dalmatian exiles and the native Italian community. This communist symbol is supposed to commemorate the fallen partisans around Rijeka in the final phase of the Second World War, but the numbers of victims during those battles have been inflated and, above all, no reference has been made to what happened after those battles. Undoubtedly, the entry of the...
Tito's Partisans in the Resistance
“Describing the role of the Yugoslav partisans in the Italian Resistance goes far beyond the study of the dramatic chapter of the Civil War. In fact, it means immersing oneself in the analysis of an area of the world, the Balkans, in which ethnic conflict surpasses diatribes and ideological clashes” says Marco Petrelli, journalist and author of I partigiani di Tito nella Resistenza Italiana (Mursia, 162 pages, Euro 17,00). Source: Agrpress - 05/09/2020 On the date of the communication of the Armistice with the Anglo-Americans, thousands of prisoners of war and civilians from enemy countries were interned on Italian soil. Among them, many Slavs who fell into the hands of the Axis forces...
The foiba of the kids
Bones, skulls pierced by a bullet, but also small crosses and many buttons have come to light from the new sinkhole discovered in Slovenia. by Fausto Biloslavo - 27/08/2020 - Source: Il Giornale Bones, skulls pierced by a bullet, but also small crosses and many buttons have come to light from the new sinkhole discovered in Slovenia. The umpteenth horror of Tito's executioners, who massacred at the end of the war not only the Italians, but a quarter of a million Slavs who fought alongside the Nazis. But there were also anti-communist Chetnik partisans. The blood of the vanquished, but this time it is the massacre of the "innocents". Of the remains of 250 victims exhumed in the forest of...

The action of the OZNA (later UDBA) continued even after June 1945
TRIESTE – “Liberation Day from Yugoslav Occupation”. June 12, 1945 is only the beginning of a long struggle to re-establish democracy and bring Trieste back to Italy. After June 12, 1945, which marks the beginning of the liberation from the Yugoslav nightmare, there was no real peace and security in Trieste not only for the Italians, but also for elements of the Slovenian minority not in line with Tito's communists. From new archive documents and journalistic sources of the time, it can be deduced how for a long time, in Trieste and in other parts of Italy, the various Yugoslav sections for the Defense of the People (OZNA and then...

Official celebrations for the solemn anniversary of June 12, newly established by the respective municipal administrations to commemorate the day in 1945 when the occupation of the Yugoslav partisan troops ended, took place today in Trieste, Gorizia and Monfalcone.

The initiative was launched by the Mayor of Trieste Roberto Dipiazza, whose council approved his proposal to establish the "Liberation Day of the City of...
After June 12, 1945, Tito's massacres continued
The entry of Yugoslav troops into Trieste, Gorizia, Fiume and Istria at the beginning of May 1945 completed the transformation of a national liberation struggle into an expansionist project that went beyond the internationally recognized borders of pre-war Yugoslavia. This is why June 12, 1945 can be considered a liberation for Trieste and Gorizia from the violent and mournful presence of Josip Broz “Tito”’s partisans. On the 16th, Pola also experienced a temporary liberation, but for the rest of Istria and Fiume, the process of absorption into the nascent... continued under the formal guise of the Yugoslav military administration.
