always in Italy, the drawers open secret for two reasons: when it's been so long to make the content harmless or to use such content as a weapon against political opponents. The recent revival of "Papello" would seem to lead toward the latter.
According to some newspapers, the list contains a series of mafia-style requests to the State, would constitute evidence of negotiations between the State and Mafia. But in '92 there was an isolated case or previously there were other dealings with organized crime? When
on major Italian newspapers covered the topic was Garibaldi, to justify unclear and controversial aspects of national unification, has written that "given the time were necessary urgent measures" or "was urgent to make Italy any cost "and still" desperate times call for desperate measures "....
short for the national media, the evil deeds of Garibaldi and Cavour and giusticare are to be undertaken.
Among the "justifications" there are some noteworthy that the Risorgimento Professoroni put simplistically and irresponsibly in the background such as the forced liberation of all criminals locked up in prisons in Palermo and Naples regardless of effort, as "being imprisoned by the Bourbons, were necessarily innocent. "
But the story more turbid than the unification of Italy, on which they often conformist historians and journalists have deliberately closed his eyes, was when the forces of Garibaldi-Piedmont anziose to make sure as soon as the final check of the Two Sicilies, establish agreements with the Sicilian crime in Naples (which was not organized) by granting stick to the various heads several places in the institutions.
Thus celebrities for their criminal activities to the police Bourbon became prefects, heads of the National Guard, police, political etc.etc. while common criminals murdered civil servants in order to take the pretty picture posto.Completava the political class Piedmont pretended not to see if it was not directly involved.
That was the moment of institutionalized crime, assuming that today is structured shows.
After this long introduction, we have imagined for a moment what would happen if Falcone and Borsellino had lived in the times of Garibaldi, and if the journalist Alfano and General From the church were killed when Cavour was still alive, surely we should read the pages of newspapers of phrases such as "if it is normal during the trial ongoing unificatorio not everything runs smoothly, especially in these early years when there will be a settlement "
But a really Falcone was killed by the Mafia in 1893, his name was Emanuele Notarbartolo, former president of Banco di Sicilia and the Mayor of Palermo, spent his political career in the fight against corruzione.Fu killed with 27 stab wounds by Matthew Mafia Filippello and Joseph Fontana, on behalf of the deputy apparently colluded Raffaele Palizzolo. This murder was considered the first murder of the mafia.
E 'Needless to say, flipping through the most authoritative journals and texts on the history of the Risorgimento and the Unification of Italy, this important crime is never mentioned except in some cases, on the surface.
negotiations and agreements which were concluded at the time with the mafia, then today would be defined "necessary" but in fact this whole thing is a bloody history of political interests. And this is demonstrated by the fact that the question of Papello and the deal was pulled out only now and certainly not to finally clear the relationship between organized crime and secular part of the state apparatus. If the first attack
result of new revelations have been strangely against mafia members the Left (Violante and Mancino) today read instead attacks on right-wingers (Dell'Utri and Berlusconi)
An attack (strangely) bipartisan?
To answer I need to change the question: Who cares oust both the left and right from Sicily (and therefore from Italy)?
An effective response might have it on Beppe Grillo a few days ago he left to go to a sensational statement in his article forgetful Mafia: "Enough with the comedy, Sicily is declared independent"
