A very short reminder that Italy celebrates a general election later this year. It has been many years since the writers' group Luther Blisset and the parallel associated group "Q" and others burst on an underground scene articulating anarcho-syndicalist and "hard core" post marxist analysis. & their thoughts have too "been internalised". Their product branding found its mark, regardless of whether or not the targetted consumer agreed or not. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4"Eleven casualties, including dead, resulted from the clashes," a Libyan government statement said.
or
"The number of dead is not official, or definitive, because until the clashes are over it's hard to say. But there are certainly about 10 (dead)."
Italy's ambassador to Tripoli, Francesco Trupiano, told Reuters.
Yes indeed "the clashes aren't over". & there is no sign of them ending is there?
Meanwhile back home in SPQR land, mr Berlusconi has made up for asking Alessandra Mussolini to join his winning team (yet again) by also asking Roberto Calderoli of the Northern League to resign for being a fascist and xenophobe and provoking the muslim minority in Italy.
Which of course Mussolini doesn't do, she just rubs history in the face of socialists, communists, jews and others. There's far too much rubbing peoples' faces in it these days if you ask me
(which no-one does).
Of course Bengazi doesn't get in the news much. I remember when Reagan bombed it using the USAF without advising any of his european partners, (not even the brits were given advance notice)
that attack occured on the 14th of April 1986. Amongst the 60 who died were the daughter of Ghadaffi the then dictator of Libya but now an ally in the war on terror whoi does well in opinion polls.
Included in the injured were members of the European engineering and construction community including one Irish.
"The Italian reform minister who angered Muslims by wearing a T-shirt decorated with Western media cartoons satirising the Prophet Muhammad has resigned.
Roberto Calderoli stepped down a day after rioting outside the Italian consulate in the Libyan city of Benghazi led to at least 10 deaths. Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi had also claimed to urge him to go."

students of European fascism & Italian language can also hear Berlusconi making a statement at that page by clicking on the section "BBC NEWS: VIDEO AND AUDIO Hear Silvio Berlusconi distance his government from Calderoli"
Ghadaffi has spoken
1) Berlusconi's line up for the Italian general elections have visited the pope Ratzinger for approval.
& he + gave it.
2) Alessandra Mussolini has said "better a fascist than a homosexual [slang to the effect]" in a TV interview.

3) prosecutors in the latest moves to do Berlusconi for corruption reject moves by Mr B to brush it under the carpet as usual till after election day.
http://www.swissinfo.org/sen/swissinfo.html?siteSect=14...26000
but he has the blessing +
That members of the Berlusconi coalition (which has suffered a split now that one party has conceded defeat) are engaged in attempts to buy Senators ahead of the official opening of the newly elected upper house, which due to constitutional safeguards may only happen when the new Italian president is elected ______________ or appointed by an extra-ordinary Senate meeting).

We do not have a word for rule by Mafia and criminals. We need one. The russian trend was to describe such as "oligarchy" in the immediate post Soviet Union period.

Time to dust off the 2005 best-seller by Guiseppe Caruso, "Chi ha ucciso Silvio Berlusconi?"
which translated means :-"who killed Berlusconi?" just to like earth those bad bad feelings.

Its also time to wonder - Has the Irish Government phoned Prodi to congratulate him?
Have the parties of the Irish Left phoned the parties of the Left in Italy to congratulate them, and further to confirm their support for legitimate government?
