The list of victims of mafia violence is unfortunately infinito.Spesso we were told that if they had to die because the state is also, we too, we have not been to the end that we should be. They have seen the oppression, the
easy wealth and unjust, the purchase of democracy, the squander of death and violence, the market institutions.
And you are turned away. They have sought justice. For this I am dead. We, however, too many times we have suffered and practiced, rather than break the yoke of mediation and accommodation. We have not offended enough
injustice. We were not quite "live." And these things we repeat the hope that fewer and fewer are left alone those who insist on doing their duty and do not become - not isolated - an easier target for riminalità mafia.
words in the wind, useless and empty when Giulio Andreotti, a man who was seven times prime minister and minister 22 times, dare to say that George Ambrosoli was killed because "if the person was looking for." Shiver the cynicism with which you plan to sell off a model of honesty and civic morality, now universally recognized as Ambrosoli.
But the cynicism of Andreotti, as ruthless, does not explain everything. A light left on the words of the "statesman" the casts of the Court of Palermo who acquitted the accused of association with the Sicilian Mafia (warning:
the sentence will then be reversed on appeal, which will be demonstrated - until 1980 - the existence of the offense but prescribed, and this ruling will then be confirmed to the Supreme Court, but in the first instance, the sentence was an acquittal, for that very reason given by judges technically listed among the least disagreeable to the accused).
Well, considering what happened to Michele Sindona, bankruptcies linked to the Sicilian Mafia, condemned the murder as a principal Ambrosoli, the Court wrote that Andreotti in Palermo
destined to Sindona "a continued its involvement in a period when he held important positions in government. "
was "active" its "commitment to the solution of problems of an economic-financial and judicial order" Sindona and to take advantage of the "design to evade the consequences of their conduct."
If "the interests of Sindona not prevail this depended to a large extent, a sense of duty, honesty and courage of the lawyer Giorgio Ambrosoli
who was killed on the orders of Sindona, precisely because of its rojects firm opposition to the rescue.
CABINET OF THE REPUBLIC developed entourage of the financier in Sicily, for which, however, mobilized Senator Andreotti, certain politicians, mafia circles and representatives of the P2 masonic lodge.
Andreotti, "even in the period in which clothed the posts of minister and chairman of the Council will strive for Sindona, against whom the Italian judicial authorities had issued since October 24, 1974 an arrest warrant for fraudulent bankruptcy."
"The essential meaning of the intervention by Senator Andreotti explained (though not the specific terms of it) was known by the mafia references Sindona.
Thus, the cynicism of today - Andreotti - is inextricably intertwined with the ancient "benvolenza" to Sindona, while Ambrosoli (
honest representative of a public interest in the improvement of a situation degenerated) was forced - more and more isolated - to deal with a shady system of conspiracies, plots and protections.
It is certain that if the "Julius" Ambrosoli not hesitate to say that "if the person was looking for" (mumbling out a "f ra understanding"!), It becomes increasingly difficult to address an issue still of crucial importance ie
expected to be canceled by politics and by all those who continue to maintain profitable relationships, business or trade, the environment and the Mafia entourage. The Chronicles
offer - this opaque world - a cross-section is still shocking. That there are still people in the world "legal" (sometimes with responsibility for institutional relief), arranged to intrigue and engage with the mafia and / or paramafiosi as if nothing had happened, absolutely "normal" is a disgrace that should make your hair stand at all. Instead
who is caught red-handed can always hope in the solidarity of its leaders
cordata, both local and national, while those that are always indignant less, and still less will they hear the words of Andreotti on Ambrosoli. But as always we will meet again: to cry one more dead and
together our democracy seriously crippled and incomplete.
Fortunately help us to resist many of the documentaries "We are History" by Giovanni Minoli, like that (in fact dedicated to the life and death of George Ambrosoli) which is "enhanced" by the incredible words of Andreotti. Although it is difficult to understand why programs of this quality (which is certainly the hunger for news would reward people with good listening) are relegated to late night
.
But perhaps even too easy understand ...
