“The Black Virus”
“THE BLACK VIRUS” By Giorgio Mottola Consultant Andrea Palladino With the contribution of Norma Ferrara – Simona Peluso Video by Dario D’India – Alfredo Farina Video by Davide Fonda – Tommaso Javidi Editing and graphics by Giorgio Vallati GIORGIO MOTTOLA OFF CAMERA How a video by the news show TGR Leonardo went viral is a rather unusual story. It was extremely difficult to find on search engines. So, for five years the story remained buried in the RAI website's archive – until last month, it had zero views. SIGFRIDO RANUCCI IN THE STUDIO This video appeared on social media and on our mobile phones while we were at home in lockdown, somewhat nettled by the long, enforced quarantine. It was an old TGR Leonardo report, showing Chinese reporters in a lab, experimenting on a strain of coronavirus. And we all shared the same suspicion. The SARS-CoV-2 strain is manmade, the poisoned fruit of Chinese researchers. We all posted it on our profiles, including me, though I pointed out that scientists had excluded any human intervention and that the video was spreading quicker than coronavirus. Who pushed it so far? Who made it go viral? With what intent? And, above all, was it real or fake news? There's a fine line there. GIORGIO MOTTOLA OFF CAMERA If you have a social network profile or just use WhatsApp, while locked away at home you will certainly have seen this video. TGR LEONARDO – FROM 16/11/2015 It's an experiment, sure, but it's worrying. It worries many scientists. A team of Chinese researchers inserts a protein taken from bats into a SARS virus strain, or acute pneumonia, obtained from mice. -
Vinciguerra Inviata Dal Carcere in Cui È Detenuto (Per Scontare L’Ergastolo), Al Sito “Archivio Guerra Politica”, Oggi Non Più Esistente
La “Biblioteca del Covo” è lieta di mettere a disposizione dei propri lettori una parte della corrispondenza di Vincenzo Vinciguerra inviata dal carcere in cui è detenuto (per scontare l’ergastolo), al sito “Archivio Guerra Politica”, oggi non più esistente. Tale documentazione messa a disposizione a titolo gratuito, rappresenta una testimonianza d’eccezione sulla vita politica italiana del Novecento, che è indispensabile rendere di pubblica conoscenza, affinché la memoria collettiva del popolo italiano non venga defraudata della propria Storia. Al termine della corrispondenza di Vinciguerra abbiamo allegato il nostro articolo scritto in risposta alle recensioni che egli fece dei nostri lavori. LA “STRATEGIA DELLA TENSIONE” NELLA CORRISPONDENZA DAL CARCERE DI VINCENZO VINCIGUERRA. OMAGGIO ALLA “COERENZA”! Carcere di Opera, 15 maggio 2007. Dobbiamo rendere omaggio alla coerenza di personaggi come Gianfranco Fini, Franco Maria Servello, Pino Rauti, Gianni Alemanno, Ignazio La Russa, Teodoro Buontempo e tanti altri ancora. Perché non concordiamo con l’industriale Giuseppe Ciarrapico che, sulle pagine del “Corriere della Sera”, li ha definiti con disprezzo “rinnegati” (1). Il disprezzo lo meritano, ma non per quello che proclamano di essere oggi, bensì per quello che hanno affermato di essere per quasi mezzo secolo, durante il quale si sono presentati come gli eredi della Repubblica Sociale Italiana, i vessilliferi di quella bandiera sulla quale i combattenti fascisti avevano scritto la parola “Onore”. Costoro, alla pari di Giorgio Almirante, Arturo Michelini, Pino Romualdi, non hanno rinnegato l’onore, semplicemente perché sono sempre stati incompatibili con esso. Hanno affermato di avere un onore, ma non l’hanno mai avuto. “Sono veramente dispiaciuto – scriveva Gianfranco Fini ai reduci della Repubblica Sociale Italiana – di non poter partecipare…al VI congresso dell’Unione Nazionale Combattenti della Repubblica Sociale Italiana. -

Winston Churchill once called it the Iron Curtain and said it ran from Szczecin on the Baltic Sea to Trieste on the Adriatic Sea. Both sides deployed military power along this line in the expectation of a major combat. The Western European powers created the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) precisely to fight that expected war but the strength they could marshal remained limited. The Soviet Union, and after the mid-1950s the Soviet Bloc, consistently had greater numbers of troops, tanks, planes, guns, and other equipment. This is not the place to pull apart analyses of the military balance, to dissect issues of quantitative versus qualitative, or rigid versus flexible tactics. -

Place is not only a fact to be explained in the broader frame of space, but it is also a reality to be clarified and understood from the perspectives of the people who have given it meaning. (Yi-Fu Tuan Space and Place, 1979: 387) The current protest movement isn’t about the past; it is about today and tomorrow. It started because a new generation wanted to defend Gezi Park, a public green space, against the violent, abusive manner in which the government sought to sacrifice it to the gods of neo-liberalism and neo- Ottomanism with a plan to build a replica of Ottoman barracks, a shopping mall and apartments (Edhem Eldem, ‘Turkey’s False Nostalgia’, New York Times, 2013). -

Davis IERES Occasional Papers, no. 2, May 15, 2019 Transnational History of the Far Right Series Transnational History of the Far Right Series A Collective Research Project led by Marlene Laruelle At a time when global political dynamics seem to be moving in favor of illiberal regimes around the world, this re- search project seeks to fill in some of the blank pages in the contemporary history of the far right, with a particular focus on the transnational dimensions of far-right movements in the broader Europe/Eurasia region. Of all European elections, the one scheduled for May 23-26, 2019, which will decide the composition of the 9th European Parliament, may be the most unpredictable, as well as the most important, in the history of the European Union. Far-right forces may gain unprecedented ground, with polls suggesting that they will win up to one-fifth of the 705 seats that will make up the European parliament after Brexit.1 The outcome of the election will have a profound impact not only on the political environment in Europe, but also on the trans- atlantic and Euro-Russian relationships. -
Operation Greif and the Trial of the “Most Dangerous Man in Europe.”
Operation Greif and the Trial of the “Most Dangerous Man in Europe.” A disheveled George S. Patton reported to Dwight Eisenhower with unsettling news from the front. “Ike, I’ve never seen such a goddamn foul-up! The Krauts are infiltrating behind our lines, raising hell, cutting wires and turning around road signs!”1 Such was the characteristic response in the aftermath of Operation Greif, orchestrated by Germany’s top commando, Otto Skorzeny. Through his actions during the Ardennes Offensive of 1944, and his acquittal while on trial, Skorzeny effectively utilized disinformation and covert operations to both earn his credibility and infamous reputation. Born in Vienna in 1908, Skorzeny led a mundane life during the years of the First World War. Despite his inability to concentrate on his studies, he managed to graduate in 1931 from the Technischen Hochschule in Wien with an engineering degree.2 His participation in the Schlagende Verbindungen (dueling societies) during his academic career gave Skorzeny the reputation of being a fierce fighter and resulted in his characteristic scars that covered both sides of his face. With the unification of Austria into Germany in 1938, Skorzeny had his first contact with the Nazi party. While visiting Vienna, he came upon Austrian President Miklas in the midst of an attempt on his life by Nazi roughnecks. Skorzeny, always a man of action, blocked the way of the would-be assassins and ended the confrontation. Word spread across the Germany of the bold Austrian who had saved the President’s life on a whim. 1 Glenn B Infield, Skorzeny (New York: St. -

The Judicial Truth 2_BULL-INTRO1P017-028 3/10/07 15:04 Page 18 2_BULL-INTRO1P017-028 3/10/07 15:04 Page 19 Introduction to Part I Stragismo, as discussed in Chapter 1, refers to a bombing campaign which started in the late 1960s and lasted for several years, causing a high toll in terms of the number of people killed and wounded. Initially, investigations targeted extreme- left, especially anarchist, groups (the so-called ‘red trail’), since the available evi- dence appeared to point in their direction. Later investigations started to probe an alternative path, the so-called ‘black trail’, which pointed the finger at extreme- right groups as the culprits for the massacres, albeit acting in ways that would pin the blame upon the extreme left. In connection to this discovery, investigating magistrates also brought to light the existence of a strategy, which became widely known as the Strategy of Tension, whose aim was to create an atmosphere of sub- version and fear in the country so as to promote a turn to an authoritarian type of government. Since the strategy was mainly directed at containing communism in Italy (especially in the light of the formation of centre-left governments from 1963, and increasing unrest on the part of students and workers in 1968 and 1969), it was an essential part of this strategy that the threat of political subversion should be seen as coming from the left, not from the right. This explained to many why much of the early evidence had appeared to point in the direction of anarchist groups. -
Conversations with Francesco Cossiga
Bulletin of Italian Politics Vol. 2, No. 2, 2010, 141-162 Conversations with Francesco Cossiga Alison Jamieson The article is an extract from five exclusive interviews, recorded over several months in 2009, with former Italian president, Francesco Cossiga, who died on 17 August 2010. Born in 1928 in Sardinia, Cossiga was a life Senator in the Italian parliament, to which he was first elected for the Christian Democratic Party in 1958. His second cousin, Enrico Berlinguer, was secretary of the Italian Communist party from 1972 until his death in 1984. Cossiga held the offices of interior minister, prime minister, speaker of the Senate and president of the republic. He resigned as interior minister on 9 May 1978 after the murder of Aldo Moro, but returned as prime minister from August 1979 till October 1980. Considered a specialist in the areas of intelligence and security, Cossiga was proud of his association with the secret Stay Behind network known as Gladio, and took credit for setting up Italy’s anti-terrorist rapid response units. Church and State The first of five recorded conversations with President Cossiga occurred on the thirty-fifth anniversary of the divorce referendum. I began by asking him about the political significance of the vote, which had returned a large majority in favour of retaining divorce. The victories of the Christian Democratic party in 1947 and 1948 were erroneously seen as those of the Catholic Church and of Catholicism. The victories were due to a more complex series of factors: many non-believers voted DC, most Italian Jews voted DC while the others voted for the Republican Party. -
Nicolae Ceaușescu Portrayed by the Italian Press (1968-1974)*
HUMANITIES - Anno IV, Numero 8, Dicembre 2015 DOI: 10.6092/2240-7715/2015.2.144-160 Francesco Magno NICOLAE CEAUȘESCU PORTRAYED BY THE ITALIAN PRESS (1968-1974)* Abstract Il contributo si concentra sui modi in cui Nicolae Ceauşescu e la Romania comunista furono presentati al pubblico italiano dalla stampa nazionale, sia di partito che d’opinione, tra il 1968 e il 1974, periodo in cui il leader romeno godette indubbiamente di un ampio apprezzamento nel mondo occidentale. In particolare, viene messo in luce come gli interessi di diversi gruppi di potere, sia politici che economici, influenzassero in quegli anni l’immagine e il giudizio che della Romania comunista erano offerti dalla stampa italiana. Alcuni giornali, tra i quali soprattutto «l’Unità» e «La Stampa», espressioni di mondi e interessi contrapposti, si distinsero allora nell’opera di manipolazione della verità a proposito di Nicolae Ceauşescu e del suo regime in Romania, omettendo o sfumando le informazioni sui caratteri autoritari del sistema o esaltandone in maniera strumentale i meriti e le “aperture”. °°°°° The ways in which Nicolae Ceaușescu and communist Romania have been portrayed in Italian public discourse are various and complex. They do not follow any kind of ideological coherence, but only political and economical opportunism. The biggest mistake would be to imagine Nicolae Ceaușescu being praised and appreciated in communist and left wing newspapers and, at the same time, denigrated and criticised in conservative ones. The main aim of this paper is to demonstrate how ideological distinctions did not always count in the report of Romanian facts and how, behind the articles that * This paper has been presented at the Session of Scientific Communications held at the Faculty of History of the University of Alba Iulia (Romania) on 16th November 2014. -
Anton Maegerle / Heribert Schiedel Krude Allianz Das Arabisch-Islamistische Bündnis Mit Deutschen Und Österreichischen Rechtsextremisten
www.doew.at Anton Maegerle / Heribert Schiedel Krude Allianz Das arabisch-islamistische Bündnis mit deutschen und österreichischen Rechtsextremisten Neues von ganz rechts, November 2001 „Die Deutschen wissen, wie man es macht, um die Juden loszuwerden.“ (M. A. al-Husseini, Mufti von Jerusalem, 1943 bewundernd in Berlin) Seit den Terrorakten gegen die USA wird über mögliche Vernetzungen zwi- schen deutschsprachigen Rechtsextremisten und islamistischen Fundamentalis- ten spekuliert. Denn die von klerikalfaschistischen Islamisten verursachten Ter- rorszenarien in New York und Washington könnten in ihrer Dramaturgie auch einem braunen Drehbuch entstammen. New York „in Schutt und Asche legen“ wollte kurz vor dem Ende der NS- Herrschaft Reichsführer SS Heinrich Himmler. „Die Amerikaner“, so Himmler, „müssen auch etwas vom Krieg zu spüren bekommen.“ Der „psychologische Effekt wäre enorm. Ich bin überzeugt, dass es die Amerikaner nicht ertragen könnten, in ihrem eigenen Land angegriffen zu werden.“ Adolf Hitler selbst fällte im März 1941 die Bemerkung, man müsse mit Terrorangriffen auf ameri- kanische Millionenstädte „den Juden“ eine „Lektion“ erteilen. Und gegenüber Albert Speer malte er „wie in einem Delirium sich und uns den Untergang New Yorks in Flammenstürmen“ aus. Antisemitische Vernichtungsphantasien 47 Jahre später lässt der Hitler-Verehrer William L.

INTRODUCTION Prior to the trial, by an American military commission entitled "Military Government Court,"' of Otto Skorzeny and his codefendants,2 which trial took place in Dachau between August 18 and September 8, 1947, and ended with an acquittal of all the defendants, the international law on legitimacy or illegitimacy of the use of enemy uniforms as a stratagem was not settled in so far as use outside open combat was con- cerned, as will be later on discussed at some length. One writer has expressed the view that the outcome of that trial supports the view "that such deception is permissible if not done in battle."8 However, this is not necessarily so.
