These days, thanks to a massive press campaign and a massive political campaign by the left, the idea has spread that there is a racism emergency in Italy and that racism in Italy is on the increase. But is it like this or is it just propaganda? To understand this it is necessary to analyze the data on crimes against foreigners in Italy, of racially motivated crimes and make a comparison with previous years and with abroad.
The first data is to see whether there has been an increase in crimes against foreigners overall (violence, insults, damage, vandalism and other crimes). Taking into account that foreigners have increased, it would be logical to expect a constant increase in crimes against foreigners, but the data says otherwise. Se 2016 they were there 202.000 foreign victims of crime, In the 2017 192.000 and in the first full six months of 2018 85.000 (which multiplied by two is 170.000. Even comparing the first six months of 2017 with the first six months of 2018 let's move on 90.000 a 85.000). Read More
He will have to compensate a defamed entrepreneur
RECIPIENT
The writer and Mondadori did not correct a passage on which the judge had already expressed his opinion
Roberto Saviano and Mondadori Libri were sentenced to jointly pay 15 thousand euros to an entrepreneur, already compensated with 30 thousand euros four years ago due to a sentence that became final. This is because the writer did not rectify the passage in the book “Gomorrah” in which Vincenzo Boccolato, with no criminal record and resident abroad, he is described as a member of a Camorra clan. The lawyers Alessandro Santoro made this known, Sandra Salvigni and Daniela Mirabile, lawyers of Boccolato, who explain that the provision, filed three days ago, it was signed by the judge of the first civil section of Milan Angelo Claudio Ricciardi.
In summary, Saviano and the publishing house decided to continue reprinting the same edition without removing the defamatory expressions sanctioned in the first conviction. Circumstance that the judge assessed as “new defamatory offence”.

Do you know what Turkey's public debt is? Il 30% on GDP. A model country according to the dogmatics of ordoliberalism. And the public deficit? 1.5% on GDP. For the dogmatists of “We remain in the euro because we have a public debt of 130%", the very low Turkish public debt would have been a "guarantee against speculation", e “the attack of the markets”: Instead Turkey was…

They were introduced two reported to the Verona prosecutor's office against the majority councilor Andrea Bacciga who last 26 July in the chamber he addressed some members of the Non una di Meno movement, raising his right arm outstretched, giving rise to a fascist demonstration. The gesture, repeated in the classroom, it was seen by several people: opposition and majority municipal councilors, representatives of the citizens and naturally by the exponents of the movement Not one less, present in the chamber that day because the discussion of two motions proposed by two councilors of the Northern League aimed at giving ample space to Catholic associations to oppose free abortion and to systematize the "burial of unborn children" program, even without the consent of the woman involved and at the expense of public health.
Some activists of Non Una di Meno, movement that at a national level had decided to oppose the approval of the two motions through pressure on social networks, they had decided that day to put on a scene, as has already happened in many other cities and countries around the world, a peaceful protest, whose message was conveyed by clothing. That is, they wore clothes similar to those of the serie tv The Handmaid’s Tale, that is, red tunics and cloaks and white headdresses. In the book and in the series, women dressed in this way live as sexual slaves and living incubators.
Following the events that occurred during the session of 26 July 2018 councilor Bacciga claimed responsibility for his gesture in a tweet in which (following the outcry resulting from his gesture and the public denunciation of Non Una di Meno which asked for his immediate resignation and which anticipated that he would take legal action) quoted Benito Mussolini: “If you acquit me you do me a favor, if you condemn me you do me an honor”.
On his Facebook page, councilor Bacciga also published the mobile phone numbers of two women belonging to the Non Una di Meno movement, numbers still visible as well the sexist and denigrating comments towards them.
In the two complaints presented to the prosecutor's office by the lawyer Federica Panizzo it is believed that the conduct of the City Councilor Andrea Bacciga constitutes the crime referred to in the art. 5 of law no. 645 of the 1952 (the so-called Scelba law). Bacciga, showing off the Roman salute, staged a demonstration of the dissolved fascist party, behavior which is even more serious given that it took place within the City Council chamber and that it was done by a person who was democratically elected according to the rules of the Republic of the Italian State and its Constitution.
The first complaint was presented by Non Una di Meno, the second will be presented in a few days by dozens of citizens, some and some of which belong to associations that have known, by the media, what happened in the City Council meeting of 26 July.
Among the associations there are, for now: Pink Club, planet Milk Verona – LGBT Pianeta Center A.P.S., the Orma trade union association, the Circle of the Rose, l’ANED (National association of former deportees to Nazi camps, Isoline and

Yesterday, our manager Matthew Castagna premiered his book “CATHOLICS AND BETWEEN Europeanism POPULISM – The challenge to nihilism” (SOLFANELLI editions pag. 243) at the national broadcaster, also visible abroad on satellite, Italy channel, host of the show “News Today” of the conductor Gianluca Versace.
Together with him, a well-known forty-year-old communist from Padua, the commentator Aldo Bianchini, the most conciliar journalist and writer Luciano Lincetto and the area beat singer of a sort “hippie left” Gigi Barrichello.
The guests of yesterday morning's episode: Chestnut, Bianchini, Barrichello, Lynx
It certainly cannot be said that Castagna played “at home”, anything but. But he himself explains to us the reason for choosing to go out with her first presentation in this context: “Today television is still, in Italy, the most used means of communication, as demonstrated by expert data and the audience, very high, obtained from the episode, which was followed by an avalanche of orders for the book. I specify that two types of presentations or conferences can be held: where we talk “in house”, and it is certainly a useful method. But if the aim is to reach those who don't think like you, the means is that of cross-examination. This time I was offered this and I gladly accepted. I have another one, simile, at stake, in Verona and three others, in September. Starting from October I am available for further presentations, always writing to christusrex@libero.it“. Read More

Even in France – in relation to the Benalla affair which overwhelmed Macron – the accusations began that, in Italy, were raised by Colle on "Russophiles" and "ultra-sovereignists" who threatened Mattarella's "freedom". With the same methods, the same insinuations and the same clumsiness and carelessness, but peppered with threats (like “the dossier swollen with pages” that…

Carlo Nordio was one of the most respected and prominent investigating magistrates of the last three decades in Italy. Owner of investigations that are as burning as they are fundamental (from the Red Brigades to kidnappings, from the Venetian Tangentopoli to the Mose), he was deputy prosecutor in Venice. His guaranteeist and counter-current positions on the role of the public prosecutor have often earned him praise. We had the opportunity to interview him during "Innocents in handcuffs", the Day dedicated to the victims of judicial errors organized with the Radical Party. What emerged was a long and interesting overview of some of the most delicate aspects of the role of the magistrate in current justice, including judicial errors. This time we publish the part dedicated to the civil liability of the magistrate. Read More
