The incident has been unanimously condemned although De Pietro also called attention to the obvious: Berlusconi is exasperating the situation at all costs. In the end this act of violence is exactly what Berlusconi wants. He will exploit it to the hilt.
Since then, wherever the little Silvio goes this word is sure to go.
Actually, Berlusconi visited Lukachenko recently- hailed him as a great democrat, loved by his people- and received four dossiers on Italy and the Eastern bloc. Three dossiers deal with WWII. The last dossier smells surprisingly similar to the farragoes produced by the Mitrokhin commission alleging that the Italian Communist Party colluded with the communist satellite states to foster terrorism in Italy. I suppose he asked Luk if he could slip in a fourth dossier...
We are being browbeaten by the media about our supposed crimes for months now.
Berlusconi will pull out these dossiers under elections just as he did in 2006. Same tired script.
PS. The robes are red for all the blood judges have sacrificed in the name of the law.
Any hope this tactic is not so effective with younger voters?

Schell was the incumbent yet lost in the first round of the election. I always saw a connection between the two. When the citizenry are attacking you in public it's hard to be seen as a legitimate leader.
