Scaramella also mentions en passant an alleged American CIA agent, Lou Palumbo who together with a certain General Gordievskij apparently put together the false accusations against Prodi.
A second conversation is with the former prosecutor of Naples, Augusto Cordova. The conversation reveals that the Sismi was aware of the Scaramella plots to frame Prodi.
You might want to cross-post the excerpts I just posted here from today's CNN interview with Scaramella. Those whom the Gods wish to destroy They first make mad. -- Euripides
As mentioned yesterday, Scaramella and his lawyer denied having any lists of Italian reporters and politicians to the written press. In the evening on national television during the program Porta a porta, a notoriously pro-Berlusconi program, Scaramella asserted again that he had tapes, videos and documents once again against the usual, well-known Italians.
During his 23 minute conversation, Scaramella alleges that he has been helped by Senator-for-life, Giulio Andreotti. He also declares that he has direct contact with Berlusconi who is informed of his schemes. Scaramella further plans to make the revelations against Prodi by using Russian writers such as KGB colonel Gordievskij and Bukovskij. Supposedly by publishing his fraudulent claims abroad, he could evoke international copyrights, whereas if the material were published in Italy, his charges would amount to calumny and false accusations.
He declares that he negotiated payola with Berlusconi, an appointment to prestigious international positions with the UN or the NATO. He asserts that Berlusconi offered him a seat in parliament.
According to Scaramella, the trap was contrived by Gordievskij together with the NY cop and alleged CIA agent, Lou Palumbo.
A second conversation with the controversial Agostino Cordova, advisor to the Mitrokhin Commission, clearly indicates that Cordova is perfectly aware of scheme to launch false accusations.
The president of the Senate, Franco Marini, has been served an immediate reply to his attacks against the press.
May they continue.
