"Ecco le persone da colpire". The shock list of anti-fascists

An antagonistic blog from Emilia indicates centre-right politicians and party headquarters. The first bombs exploded. Bignami (Fi): serious threats
Of Giuseppe De Lorenzo
« Get out of the way, o li leveremo noi». The threat, not even too veiled, is contained in the antagonist blog «Emilia Anti-fascist», from the subtitle of as trump memory but in a partisan sauce: «Making Emilia Red Again».
Making Emilia red again. Intimidation could be classified as the ravings of some fanatic, except that the social centers themselves have released a detailed dossier with names, surnames, addresses and movements of all the right-wing realities in Modena, Reggio Emilia, Carpi and Bologna. A real witch hunt against those who don't think like them. Including parliamentarians, city ​​councilors and ordinary citizens.
The dossier too closely resembles the gloomy files drawn up by Avanguardia Operaia in the Years of Lead. Then the "comrades" put together 10 thousand files with photos and data of alleged neo-fascist militants. Today the antagonists do the same, providing timely online descriptions of the activities not only of far-right groups such as Forza Nuova and CasaPound. But also of Forza Italia, League, Brothers of Italy and various student associations. The goal? Create an "increasingly participatory mobilization against the neo-fascist presence" in Emilia. Mobilization that, according to what is written in the blog, provides for the implementation of «violent actions that can be considered right on a strategic level». Translated: hitting a "comrade" is not a crime. Read More

Merkel, Macron alongside May: war on Russia!

Of Maurizio Blondet
Merkel's government has sided with London in accusing Russia of poisoning former spy Skripal. Indeed, he was the first of the new grand coalition government. The Minister of Defense, Ursula von der Leyen: “Now it is essential that we stand firmly alongside the English”. According to DWN, this serves to prepare the German public for new and more serious sanctions against Moscow, not only economic but political, so as to make Russia a pariah state. Macron also took sides. Obviously, Nikki Haley. There are signs that the West is preparing to expel Russia from the UN Security Council, that the Soviet Union gained with the bloody victory of the Second World War.
As for the nerve agent that May accuses the Russians of having used, il Novichok, it was produced by a Russian chemist who fled to the USA since 1994, Vir Mirzanyanov. Who published the formula in the autobiographical book, “State Secrets: An Insider’s Chronicle of the Russian Chemical Weapons Program” (2008) in which he tells how he heroically opposed Putin's power by fleeing abroad..

“Only Russia could be behind the “, says the Inventor and former Russian chemist Vil Mirzayanov in a TV interview from his $1 mln. home in the US.

The point is that the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), that is, the supranational body that controls chemical-biological weapons, In the 2013 expressed doubts about the very existence of Novichok and his Scientific Advisory Board advised against using the components indicated by Mirzayanov in his book, in the list of precursors to be subject to prohibition and production control.
Still in 2016 the doctor Robin Black, head of the Porton Down Detection Laboratory, the British chemical warfare agent production centre, published an article in a scientific journal in which he argued that the very existence of Novichock was very little certain, based only on the assertions of its purported inventor, il sulladato Mirzayanov.

The great loser is the pro-European myth

Of Gianpasquale Santomassimo
The great loser is the pro-European myth
To all those who carry out very complicated and political analyses, who believe that a certain party has lost boatloads of votes because of a wrong little word on TV, for an incorrect goal in the program, for that indigestible candidate etc., a simple truth must be remembered: that the bulk of the electorate orients themselves and thinks in a much simpler way. If the "left" has become indigestible and unvotable in the eyes of voters, this will have concentric repercussions, from Renzi to Grasso and even further to the left.
The distinctions that political enthusiasts make, splitting hairs in four, they have no value and are not intelligible to the common voter. It is a question of understanding why there has been such a broad and probably definitive rejection of what has been considered "left" in recent decades. An unsurprising phenomenon, and that comes from quite far away, by a reversal of roles and representation of classes and lifestyles, plastically depicted by all the vote analyzes of recent years, which pitted the satisfied wealthy people of the city centers against the people of the suburbs who expressed a need for rebellion and protection at the same time.
It's not as if there was a lack of offers of possible claims, also very varied, even if of poor quality: at this point the question from the left was missing, let's say. The whole left (moderate, radical, antagonist) it was perceived and judged by the electorate as an integral part of a system that needed to be changed.
We are also witnessing in Italy the collapse of the liberal left which had long been hegemonic with its vision of the world. The so-called "radical left" itself had been nothing other than the extreme wing of this widespread ideology, very sensitive to the issues of civil rights and "humanitarian" battles, effectively inert in the field of social rights.
And also complicit in the construction of the pro-European myth, which is the great defeat of this consultation in the background. The Democratic Party is an integral part of the pro-European establishment, his left-wing critics are very often askari of the "more Europe"..
We are not only faced with euros and rules, but also a very powerful and pervasive overall ideology, a vast political and cultural front, convinced that "more Europe" is the solution to the problems that Europe itself has posed with its crazy implementation. It would involve undertaking a long-term effort to demystify - as was once said - the results of a hegemony built with many decades of massive use of cultural resources, media, economical, but which rests on very fragile historical and theoretical foundations, witnessed by that embarrassing document that went down in history as the "Ventotene manifesto".
The problem with left-wing Europeanism is that it is no longer just a replacement ideology for the twentieth-century ones that collapsed in 1989 and it is no longer just a "civil religion" imposed on subjects by the establishment. But now it is a real religion, with its dogmas, his acts of blind and absolute faith, the creed because it is absurd (I think because it's absurd) and also a massive dose of human sacrifice. At least start asking the problem, discuss it openly and secularly on the left, it will certainly be a positive thing (as well as necessary).
Without rethinking everything it will be impossible to start again. I don't have any great illusions, the Republic will continue to rave about populism and "sovereignism", the left will continue to treat the popular masses who express discomfort with their living conditions as fascists and racists, will continue to discuss "security obsessions" and imagine that "multiculturalism" is a gala lunch free of lacerations and dramas. The defense of the national interest will be left to the right, and even the exercise of the constitutional sovereignty for which we had voted 4 December of 2016.
«We are not interested in national sovereignty, we are internationalists" declares the leader of an electoral list that received 1.1%. One wonders since when this position, who even ignores the meaning of the words, and which would be impossible to explain to the Cubans, to the Vietnamese, but also to the Kurds and any other people, has become commonplace on the Italian left.
Instead of evoking the People we should at least start talking to them. When we decide to do it it will never be too late.
