I do believe things in Colombia are worse than here. But it is not fair to compare Italy to a third-world country, unless we assume Italy is also a third-word country… We have to compare Italy to Germany, to Sweden…

If things are like that in italy, imagine how they are in Colombia, where I’m from. If this criminal now works for your goverment, imagine the cousin of PABLO ESCOBAR, the biggest kingpin of all time, as the closest advisor of Alvaro Uribe, our democratically electecdpresident (a guy also with a very dark past, tied to right wing paramilitaries and the Medellin-Cartel).

This is a GREAT blog! I’m Italian and not proud.

Sometimes I think most of Italians are stupid and I don’t wanna be one of them.

I posted a link to your blog on my Facebook page to let Italians understand how the world sees us, because when I tell them (my friends and people I know) they don’t believe it.

Keep up the good work. Italy is a beautiful country to visit, not to live in.

Dear Carlo,

I have made some reseach about this subject. I found some rumors regarding Gladio’s role on this incident.

As Gladio is an NATO sponsored organization, I guess this rumor was something created by leftist organizations themselves, as way to minimize their own guilty on the matter.

Regards.

Dear gufodotto,

Although your comments are far from receiving my endorsement, they are welcomed.

First of all, let me clarify one aspect of my original post: it is about politics, not religion, neither morality. And this makes a huge difference.

As an individual, as a Catholic, I truly believe we should forgive every individual. But as a political being, I understand the State can not be ruled by religion. Not even by my own religion.

A State needs the rule of the law. Without law, no individual would be safe to profess his/her political beliefs nor religion. It is the law which assures the continuity of a society in the long run.

What Mario Moretti did was an attack to the Italian society. And, as a society, Italy can not harbor those who attempts to destroy it. Terrorism is not a “youngster wrongdoing.” There is no political murderer, there is just a murderer.

In a democratic country like Italy, one should vote, not shoot.

Regards.

Are you saying that we should never forgive somebody who’s done a mistake in his/her life? The guy was misguided, as many youngsters are, made some seriously big erroras, and started paying for them. He was well behaved, since he was obviously not violent by nature but only for political reasons. If he repented and he’s able to function as a normal member of sociaety, the better. The very fact that he’s working within the institution possibly means that he may be trying to compensate for what he’s done. Although I doubt that this will ever be achieved.

I rather think that the poor Hinkley is being mistreated, if he really is in the situation you describe. But hey, it ain’t my country so I put no word in it.
