zzata military security, the army in the streets. The symbolism of Berlusconi muscle "emergency" and the points of friction with the social fabric in our country. From the Val di Susa Chiaiano

Peter Orsatti

"We hope by July to rid the streets of all the waste," said the Chairman of the Board Silvio Berlusconi before an audience of young entrepreneurs in relation to waste emergency in Naples. By July. Without taking into account that there is, to date, no place to focus tensions and protests of local people. This is the promise. Meanwhile, Defence Minister Ignazio La Russa voiced publicly that "our military is ready to intervene" in Naples. What military for months as the Army Engineers is engaged in Campania in relation to its garbage crisis? There is talk of a large part of those 3000 for soldiers to guard our cities? Meanwhile in the towns of Naples (Marano, Giugliano, Quality, other centers of the north of Naples and the Vesuvius) firefighters had to perform 55 operations in a single night to extinguish fires and waste continue protests future landfill Chiaiano. In particular here we focus the fears of clashes. The local residents are gearing up to "hold" any office or evictions. And the militarization of statements made by the same Berlusconi and Interior Minister Roberto Maroni immediately after the establishment of the executive certainly do not help to lower the voltage level. But fears management on a whole muscle and order not only stops in Naples and Campania. The previous Berlusconi government's 2001-2006 does not bode well. The facts of the G8 summit in Genoa, the violence in the Bolzaneto barracks and in the Diaz school, the widely documented beatings of unarmed demonstrators, are still present in the collective memory of our country. And that just among the many processes that are blocked by the current rules included "the sly" in the security decree there is just the process of the violence attributed to the police in those days certainly not reassuring. "What about the process Bolzaneto - says MEP Vittorio Agnoletto - is the most obvious. We are talking about first sentence on the perpetrators of the violence. Well, the verdict is scheduled for July 21, the decree must be approved by 24. We are sure you will do everything to approve it at the proper time to delay. Doing so at the last minute to publish in the Official Journal. In other words: Saturday, July 19? It is precisely this fear that the week of action in Genoa will continue until the ruling, and will involve all those organizations and international associations to fight for civil rights such as Amnesty International. How then, what happened in the square, at Bolzaneto and Diaz can not remain a merely Italian. " As for the process to Diaz, however, il decreto avrà certamente l’effetto di sospendere la sentenza. Secondo Agnoletto «una vergogna, visto che mentre si continua a non individuare le responsabilità di quello successo a loro, chi aveva diretto le operazioni durante il G8 è stato promosso».

Agnoletto non lo dice direttamente, ma anche la “militarizzazione” voluta dall’attuale esecutivo può diventare deflagrante. Non solo nel caso di Genova, ma anche su vertenze locali come la Tav in Val Di Susa. «Questo decreto, l’uso di questo simbolismo di militarizzare il conflitto sociale, è la fine della Costituzione repubblicana così come l’abbiamo intesa fino a oggi. È evidente che si aims to divide the real from the formal constitution. In Val di Susa will come to the paradox with the army to prevent access to the legitimate owners of the land. " This scenario, actually scary, is not that far away. It is clear that the executive, and loyal to Prime Minister Antonio Tajani, current Minister of Transport, did not hide his intentions of stepping up to the start of work. Why do not you want to lose European funds and, thanks to the vetoes that has characterized the management of the whole affair Tav, was never really sought an alternative possibility to that indicated by the Fs and the Ministry of Public Works. Within six months at the most - these are the most reliable forecasts - the crisis riesploderà Tav. And the answer to the protests of local committees will be muscle, it is written in the statements made by the majority and the government since the election campaign.

Even if you have not lowered the level of "attention" by the No Dal Molin movement in Vicenza, a small victory for the Tar recent ruling, which blocked for now the date of commencement of works (scheduled for July 1 ) to expand the U.S. base, has given new breath after months of conflict. "Above all, he restored confidence to the city - says the committee Olol Jackson Vicenza - showing that there is an alternative, a possibility to prevent the doubling of the base. These days the Mayor, on behalf of the TAR, has welcomed the indication to stop the reclamation works "because the expansion of basic preparatory" and this is another step forward. " But a strained as the one announced a few days ago the usual hyper-active Defense Minister Ignazio La Russa, and a rise in conflict with the component of the social movement, is also a concern in Vicenza. "But there will be more difficult to force the hand - Jackson says - even the Americans. Chiaiano or with those of the Val di Susa attempt will be to make them go from being "poor, ignorant" to justify the use of force. Peasants on the one hand, slightly less than that of the other Camorra: so have them and they are defining. But here the situation, thanks to the decision of the TAR, is completely different. Here, even the Americans will have difficulty explaining to the media around the world that breaks the head of a community center of any Casarini ugly and bad, but the lady Rose of the Presidio of seventy years. "

The social tension is becoming one of the nodes of conflict in the coming months. It will also close on some inevitable processes such as water privatization, the Government has already declared that, in practice, to consider a moratorium on privatization passed by the Senate in the last term paper and want to accelerate this process of liberalization and deregulation. The icing on the cake of the conflict near future the front of the school and the Civil Service, with 150,000 jobs deemed redundant and will disappear in the sea of \u200b\u200bBerlusconi "world order".
