The facts. Silvio Berlusconi is facing a trial for bribery of a lawyer, the Englishman Mills, who took 600,000 euros to produce a false testimony in favour of the Italian premier. Mills was convicted of the crime, but Berlusconi was not tried, because of a law machined just in time, to suit him: the "Lodo Alfano", named after the Minister of Justice, which gave immunity to the four highest charges of the Italian political system (the President of the Republic, the Presidents of the two chambers, and the Premier). With the Lodo Alfano, Berlusconi got shielded from two other misdemeanor accusations.
It so happens that the Lodo Alfano was canceled a month ago by a court which decided that the law is illegal -as Berlusconi's opposers had repeatedly claimed-, since it goes against the Italian Constitution. Now, with the Lodo Alfano off the board, Berlusconi is almost certain of being convicted if he is tried -Mills was bribed to falsely testify in his favour, and this is an established fact. The first session is already being scheduled, and he claimed that his institutional duties prevent him from attending in the near future. In the meantime he asked his lawyers to put together a law to cancel his trial for good.
The law was justified by the government with the excuse that the judiciary system needs to be simplified, and to make trials shorter. They did their best to make it look like urgent business for our Country, in a moment when unemployment is at a record high, and the foreign debt has reached an appalling 115% of the gross national product. The project of law establishes that after two years, if the trial has not ended, your crime goes untried and you get away with it. And it is retroactive! Now, with the law in place, Berlusconi would get rid of all the accusations once and for all. But unfortunately, as always happens with laws made ad personam, this wreaks havoc in the whole system. Because if the law passes, hundreds of ongoing trials will be canceled.
I am with Pierferdinando Casini this time. Casini is the leader of UDC, a catholic party inspired by the "Christian Democracy" which governed Italy for 40 years after WWII. He is not a person of which I have high esteem. But he said it best: let us make the Lodo Alfano a constitutional law, give Berlusconi what he wants, and forget the issue. Because here there is more at stake than the reputation of our shameful prime minister: the whole system will collapse. Judges will be forced to deal with the urgent administration, and corrupt politicians, criminal organizations, massive frauds will acquire total immunity.
The fight that the Berlusconi government has moved to magistrates in Italy since Berlusconi got to power is a shameful thing by itself -he calls honest judges who do their duty in silence for a modest income "dangerous communists" because they investigate on notitiae criminis related to him- but this law is horrible. Italy is not renowned for a well-working judiciary system, but Italy is about to become a banana republic -if it is not already one.
and it's still not enough for bloody aggressive socialists like you, is it?
Don't you have any homework to do? School's on tomorrow, you know.
Berlusconi's incredible. Ingrid Rowland has an article on Italian politics in the current New York Review of Books here.
If you have the time, I'd be interested in any specific criticisms of Rowland's article. (I can't comment about details of Italian politics, but I wonder if you're being completely fair in saying the article is on gossip. True, she brings up some gossipy elements -- but it seems to me her main point is the political dysfunction.)
Also not of "juridical importance" as the article says are the large sums of money: nobody can, nor is, charging Marrazzo for that, because there is simply no proof. For the cocaine it's another matter, admittedly.
The article calls "dictator" Vladimir Putin, which is a stretch. Calls Fini "far and away the most capable politician in circulation" which is partisan, to say the least. Mentions Napoli's camorra without explaining that Berlusconi's candidate as governor of the region, Cosentino, is indicted of camorrism.
Overall, the article looks quite leaned on the right-wing side of the matter. No space is given to the question of the moment, i.e. the fact that Berlusconi is trying to avoid being processed, and is at war with magistrates. A rather skewed view.
Thanks. (I wonder if the article's not taking up Berlusconi's latest attempt to avoid the law is due to when the article was written. )
This is a huge surrealistic joke, right? A person about to make a whole country collapse just to save his ass (has he considered declaring war against Libya so that Italy enters a state of emergency and all trials are frozen?). Or maybe he's thought this up just to trick you accept the Lodo Alfano, hm?
As it says: Jöns Jakob Berzelius coined the name kakodyl (later changed to cacodyl) for the dimethylarsinyl radical, (CH3)2As, from the Greek kakodes (evil-smelling) and hyle (matter).Nevertheless, his repeated attacks on Berlusconi carry little weight with me. Firstly, he seems to pride himself on being of the left, so he is biased beforehand; moreover, this tinkering with the law is characteristic of many rulers beloved of those who consider the USA to be the devil that they don't believe in. Also, Berlusconi's association with the Pope will bias the author even further, since he is of the Lennonist persuasion ("Imagine there's no heaven" - a miserific song if ever there was one).
Morever, in this matter the author comes across as so cheerless that he is almost making me feel sympathy for Berlusconi, malgré moi. He would be much better taking a leaf out of the book of Totò, and renaming an undergarment after his target, doing a take on "La Cammesella". Something like this (alas I'm not fluent in Neapolitan):
Levate stu Berluscone! ...
Berluscone, gnerno', gnerno'!
You can Totò's version of the song on http://open.spotify.com/track/6dgAJjDy6Zt7bTdPIci6HH - highly recommended.

I will teach you how a hedge fund insider trades the forex market
About This Gig
Please do NOT order any gigs without contacting me first. Make sure to read everything on this page and watch our short videos at the bottom. There is much more information (and our trade performance) on these videos.
1) For five years, I worked for one of the first high-frequency quant-funds in the world. And our team has been managing money (profitably) for the last 10 years. Including during the financial crisis of 2008.
2) In 2014, one of our strategies reached 1426 consecutive wins. And this was verified by Guinness World Records (see video).
3) Our best day this year was on January 16th. The same day the SNB removed the floor against the Euro. Large banks and hedge-funds around the world lost billions, including Citigroup, Barclays and Deutsche. But we were properly hedged and made several thousand pips during the event (see video).
Watch the videos below and see the proof for yourself. Then let me know if there is anything we can assist with. I am sure that we can create a custom-offer for you.
Best of Luck!
