GLORY TO OUR COMRADE ANTONIO CANEPA and to the partisans of the Volunteer Army for the Independence of Sicily! NO to the hypocritical tricoloured Liberation Day and to the tainted May Day celebrations! World War II (1939-1945). After the facts were cleaned out by the ideologies, our very own Memory was "purified", what is left of the second WORLD WAR is a lethal confrontation between competing Powers, which turned into the division of the World in two parts, of a divided Europe, a divided Germany, a divided Berlin. And in the long-lasting withdrawal of the old colonialist European Empires, that had "won" the war, triggering India's independence, and most of all the foundation of Mao's People's Republic of China. In July 1943 - with Operation Husky - the "Allies" (supported by an efficient Resistance against Nazi- fascism) occupy Sicily. It was the beginning of the end of a Regime, but, as we will see, it was not what the Sicilian Partisans had fought for. The 24th October 1943, beyond the temporary AMGOT (Allied Military Government for Occupied Territories), was also the birthdate of Washington's "SICILY REGION 1" in the Mediterranean, which remains like an "unsaid" under this sky that is populated by foreign planes, assassin drones, dysfunctional saints and a G7 on a tourist trip. This Sicily is a fought-over island, played like a geopolitical card by Rome, the real mafia capital, and its strategic relation with the AmeriKan friend. A treasure island reduced to Europe's poorhouse, with its habitants being forced to emigrate. An island made HOSTAGE that is drifting off course in the tempests of the 21st Century. *** In the crucial 1940s one of the very few intellectuals who lucidly understood, that the essence of the Sicilian question is the problem of the unresolved self-determination of a people, was an already famous young scholar, who was among others a professor of History of International Relations and Treaties at Catania University. He was a cultured and very methodical 30-years old polyglot: Antonio Canepa. In those days' Sicily that was revolting for its sacrosanct right to independence, the COMRADE ANTONIO CANEPA WAS A TRUE LEADER OF THE ANTI-FASCIST RESISTANCE MOVEMENT. First as the political-military leader of the murderous "Gruppo Etna", and later as the "Comandante TOLU' of Giustizia e Libertà" on a mission in the North. The COMRADE ANTONIO CANEPA WAS A TRUE LEADER OF THE SICILIAN ANTI-COLONIALIST RESISTANCE MOVEMENT (as the Comandante Mario Turri of the EVIS - the Army for the Independence of Sicily). He was assassinated in an ambush in Randazzo. It was the 17th of June 1945. His corpse was concealed under State Secret for a decade. To this day his memory is object of taints and miss-information. The concealed truth about Antonio Canepa is the most outrageous scandal in Sicily's last 70 years. The EVIS was not an "army" thought to win a "war". The EVIS was an "armed political party" fighting for a more just peace, on the path of Sicily's socialist (R)evolution. The "military camp" of the EVIS in Cesarò, in Messina province, even had its own traffic sign set up! The EVIS - beyond any reasonable doubt - IS THE CONTINUATION - also physical - of the ANTI-FASCIST RESISTANCE ON OUR ISLAND. THE REAL ONE. THE ONLY ONE that played a political-military role. Canepa's partisan network was deeply rooted within Catania University... and also counted on the trotskyist group "SICILIA ROSSA", that broke out of its clandestine existence on May Day 1945. The EVIS - which was born and died with Canepa - never had any "relationship" with gangs and bandits. If anything, it clashed with organised crime. In one of those clashes the young Francesco Ilardi died. Ilardi was later buried at the Sanctuary of Catania, together with the Comandante and their comrades. The EVIS was predominantly formed by young students, artisans and farmers. They called themselves "comrades". Period. In the chaos that reigned in those years, other groupings such as the gang around Salvatore Giuliano and Salvatore Ferreri had completely different political references -> During the Viterbo trial, Gaspare Pisciotta, a member of Giuliani's outlaw band, mentioned the name of Bernardo Mattarella (politician for the Christian Democrat party, and father of today's Italian president Sergio Mattarella) as well as the OSS-CIA. He was later poisoned as part of OSS-CIA operation "GLADIO". "CANEPA MUST DIE!". THIS DEMAND CAME FROM ROME. It came from within the "anti- fascist" CLN (National Liberation Committee). It was one of the many "showdowns" within the "partisan world", but the bullets came from the newly-founded GLADIO. In the chaos that arised during the post-war period in Sicily, the massacre of Randazzo on 17 June 1945 was the most cynical and politically criminal act - and the most concealed. In the location "Contrada Murazzo Rutto" near Randazzo, at the foot of the Etna, on Sunday, the 17th June 1945, following the orders from the "anti-fascist" government in Rome, the following people were slaughtered in an ambush: comrade professor Antonio Canepa, founder of the Army for the Independence of Sicily, as well as the young EVIS- activists Carmelo Rosano and Giuseppe Lo Giudice. They were Sicilian partisans who had chosen to continue the battle for the liberation of the Sicilian people and its working class. As for the executors, everything leads to the "reformed" SIM, the Italian secret intelligence service, which, following the Armistice of Cassibile on 8th September, had already incorporated nazi-fascist criminals such as Ettore Messana, already a "dirty war"- specialist in Slovenia, and other "patriots" from the Xa Mas (the 10th Assault Vehicle Flotilla) led by Junior Valerio Borghese. Borghese was on of the covert protagonists of Portella della Ginestra massacre, perpetrated against Sicilian civilians during May Day celebrations in 1947 in the town of Piana degli Albanesi. A COVER OPERATION carried out under the auspices of the OSS-CIA by the fake independentist flag of the Ferreri- Giualiano gang, who maybe did not even shoot on that tragic 1st of May 1947 (the ballistic report remains to be studied). Operation GLADIO was born! The FAKE MYTHS against CANEPA and the EVIS are still being exhumed, like badly buried corpses without peace. The EVIS does have its MARTYRS. People like SALVATORE GIULIANO are certainly not part of it. During the post-war chaos the systematic Italian re-occupation of Sicily had to be legitimised, so the myth of the "War on Banditry" was born: the reputation of Sicilian independence activists had to be systematically destroyed by linking them to banditry - and of course - to the Mafia. A load of bullshit, reiterated for the last 70 years! A hypocritical and coarse way to taint their Memory. Meanwhile, seemingly by force of habit: The deafening silence of the "institutions", but also of the ANPI (the National Association of Italian Partisans); the CLN (the National Liberation Committe); and all of the italian "partisanism", subjected and accomplice to a code of silence (it: omertà). The cowardice of the "academic world", and the denigrating attitude against Sicilians, that unites both the leftist historiographical ignorance and the visceral hate of the right-wing literature. Last but not least, the hypocrisy of the tri- coloured trade unions, that offend the Truth by staging every 10 years their "political picnics" at Portella. The conquer of this Truth is owed to the Sicilian People, and sees the (INDEPENDENTIST) SICILIAN LEFT on the front row since decades, thanks to the prophetic path of TerraeLiberazione, bio-political heir of the trotskyist independentist group "SICILIA ROSSA" of 1945. This HISTORICAL AND POLITICAL TRUTH has to be reconquered and defended every day from the FOGS, the MARSH, and the MINE FIELDS of the COLONIALIST SPECTACLE staged by the italianized Sicily. In July 1943 - during Operation Husky - the "Allies" (sustained by an efficient Resistance against nazi-fascism) occupied Sicily. It marks the end of a Regime, but, as we shall see, it was not what the sicilian partisans around Comandante Canepa had fought for. During WWII - this huge slaughterhouse in which the "crisis of 1929" is resolved - the 24th October 1943, beyond the temporary AMGOT, Washington's SICILY REGION 1 in the Mediterranean was born. It pervades like a "non-said"... under a sky populated by foreign airplanes, murderous drones, dysfunctional saints, and the G7 on a tourist trip. For the Sicilian People it's another PAST that does not pass. A past that cannot beunderstood by disregarding the TRUTH about CANEPA: the sicilian PARTISAN, the GREAT PROFESSOR of History of International Relations and Treaties, the geopolitical analyst who - despite the ongoing fascist Regime - studied Trotsky's works with method, and tried to apply them in Sicily in the most resounding fashion: the THEORY-PROGRAMME of the PERMANENT REVOLUTION within the historic-social conditions of an Island Nation that is being exploited and oppressed by a neocolonialist State. The EVIS was the armed political party that legitimised - in the continuity of anti-fascist Resistance - the future of an INDEPENDENSTIST SICILIAN LEFT: independent on every ideological, policy, organisational and operational level. Certainly, with his 100 young people, the guerilla- professor "Mario Turri" did not want to "wage war against Italy", he was not a fool. The EVIS was also not the armed force of the MIS (the Independence Movement of Sicily), whom Canepa knew very well. If anything, Canepa-Mario Turri offered an alternative to the defenseless MIS and had good relations with the League of Young Separatists (it: LGS, Lega Giovanile Separatista) led by Guglielmo Carcaci. The LGS was a practical channel for the LEGITIMATE DEFENSE of the INDEPENDENTIST YOUTH, that was persecuted and tormented by the beastly Italian police force of Salvatore Aldisio, Rome's High Commissioner for Sicily.
