[lbo-talk] “The Most Serious Suspension of Democratic Rights in a Western Country since World War II

[Nicholas Roberts]

Police officials initially stated that the raid had come in response to
attacks on security forces by protestors, and that weapons were found at
the Armando Diaz school. The Cassation judgment rejected this version of
events. Rather, demonstrators, many of whom were sleeping when the raid
began, had not reacted violently, but the police had tried to incriminate
them by planting firebombs and staging a knife attack.

The recent judgment is particularly significant in that it concludes
definitively that the highest levels of the Italian police force were
directly involved in the attempted cover-up that followed the events at the
Diaz school. Fifteen senior officers, including figures such as the current
head of the anti-crime department and the chief of the Central Operative
Service, were convicted for falsifying evidence. Due to an earlier law
designed to reduce inmate numbers, none of the officers are likely to spend
any time in prison. However, the conviction means they automatically will
be suspended from duty for five years, effectively beheading the Italian
police force.

Gianfranco Fini, currently speaker of Rome Parliament, is still the most
powerful fascist politician in Europe but since his breakup with
Berlusconi, he is biding his time and staying below the radar. When Fini is
quiet, he is planning his path to become prime minister. The fascists are
allowing the Monti Government to be seen to fail before they offer their
extreme right wing policies on law, Public Order and Immigration. Fini's
view of Europe and the EU is that Italy should leave union of states. This
is where he finds common ground with Cameroon who also wants to leave but
for the different reasons of protecting the bankers in the city of London.
