Silvio Berlusconi E La Loggia Massonica P2 1 Uniti nella Libertà, Liberi nell’unità Silvio Berlusconi e la loggia massonica P2 1 La ricevuta dell’adesione. Le lettere A.G.D.G.A.D.U. stanno per «A glo- ria del Grande Architetto dell’Universo», formula con la quale i massoni desi- gnano l’Entità superiore, non meglio specificata. 1 Articolo del 22 giugno 2011 su: http://ilcorsivoquotidiano.net/2011/06/22/massoneria-p2-berlusconi-p3-p4/ . Il titolo all’originale (non proprio super partes) era: «Massoneria: segreti, crimini, bugie e ovviamente Silvio Berlusconi». Noi vogliamo attenerci ai soli dati di fat- to, per cui tutte le frasi polemiche sono state omesse. 1 […Berlusconi è stato] membro della P2 [per cinque anni, prima dello scio- glimento della P2 nel 1982] di Licio Gelli, 2 […] con la tessera 1816, codice E.19.78, gruppo 17, fascicolo 0625. La data di affiliazione è il 26 gennaio 1978. In una famosa intervista, Gelli racconta [oltreché la verità dell’adesione] la cerimonia d’investitura, avvenuta a Roma, in via Condotti, in un lussuoso ap- partamento sopra la gioielleria Bulgari. 3 […] il Governo intervenne creando un’apposita legge, la n. 17, del 25 gen- naio 1982, con la quale sciolse la P2 e rese illegale il funzionamento delle asso- ciazioni segrete con analoghe finalità […]. Il giornalista e politico Massimo Teo- dori, membro della Commissione parlamentare di Tina Anselmi, che creò questa legge, affermò: «La P2 non è stata un’organizzazione per delinquere esterna ai partiti ma interna alla classe dirigente. La posta in gioco per la P2 è stata il pote- re e il suo esercizio illegittimo e occulto con l’uso di ricatti, di rapine su larga scala, di attività eversive e di giganteschi imbrogli finanziari fino al ricorso alla eliminazione fisica» […]. Nella relazione finale della Commissione di Tina Anselmi compariva an- che il nome di Berlusconi»: «…alcuni operatori (Genghini, Fabbri, Berlusconi) trovano appoggi e finanziamenti al di là di ogni merito creditizio». Le due gran- di banche che davano credito a Berlusconi erano la Banca Nazionale del Lavoro e il Monte dei Paschi di Siena, dove durante gli anni ‘70 la P2 era più attiva. Il Monte dei Paschi tra il ‘70 e il ‘79 concedette a Berlusconi 70 miliardi di mutui a tassi fra il 9 e il 9,5%. Sempre nel 1978, il 10 aprile, Berlusconi iniziò una collaborazione quale editorialista con il Corriere della Sera, proprio quando la loggia P2 acquisiva, come dice la Commissione parlamentare d’inchiesta, «il controllo finanziario e gestionale del gruppo Rizzoli» [al quale apparteneva il Corriere]. […] Licio Gelli il 23 novembre 1995 è stato condannato in via definitiva per ripetuti tentativi di depistaggio delle indagini sulla strage di Bologna, sul seque- stro dell’on. Aldo Moro e sulla strage dell’Italicus […].

  • “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.

  • 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.

  • La Complicidad Internacional Claudio Tognonato1
    1 La complicidad internacional Claudio Tognonato1 Introducción Este trabajo nace de una investigación internacional llevada a cabo entre el 2009 y el 2012 por universidades italianas y argentinas. Las conclusiones fueron publicadas en el 2012 en Italia con el nombre de Affari Nostri, diritti umani e rapporti Italia-Argentina 1976-19832. Sucesivamente algunos aspectos de esta investigación fueron volcados en un capítulo del libro Cuentas Pendientes. Los cómplices económicos de la dictadura3. Más allá de ese capítulo buena parte de los temas que fueron abordados por la investigación de Affari nostri todavía no han hecho su ingreso en el debate argentino. El trabajo que aquí presento incluye nuevos elementos. Se trata de una investigación que ofrece nuevas perspectivas históricas al análisis de la violación de los derechos humanos en Argentina. Es importante señalar que, queriendo analizar específicamente el período de la dictadura, en el curso de la investigación, fue indispensable ampliar el segmento histórico. Señalo esto ahora, introduciendo el trabajo, porque terminada la investigación, han surgido nuevos indicios que hacen presumir que ciertas complicidades tratadas en Affari Nostri tal vez no sean sólo historia, sino que, como veremos, están aún presentes. Es por eso que hacer memoria para construir un verdadero Nunca Más, se confirma como una tarea que no puede cesar. El Nunca Más sabemos que no se pronuncia de una vez y para siempre. El pasado, en cuanto pasado, ya no es. Necesita que desde el presente alguien le dé actualidad, de no ser así decae y el presente se construye como si ese pasado no hubiese sido.

    Secret Societies in Italy: Origins of Propaganda Due about:reader?url=https://www.thegreatcoursesdaily.com/secret-societies-i... thegreatcoursesdaily.com Secret Societies in Italy: Origins of Propaganda Due 9-11 minutes By Richard Spence, Ph.D., University of Idaho Italian politics, after the end of the two world wars, was a very messy spectrum, comprising a number of groups lying on the left or the right, the communists or fascists, or something in between. What was even more fascinating, however, was the presence of secret societies and lodges. One of the better-known ones was the Propaganda Due, or P-2, which had many high-profile names as its members. 1 of 8 2021/05/02, 13:41 Secret Societies in Italy: Origins of Propaganda Due about:reader?url=https://www.thegreatcoursesdaily.com/secret-societies-i... Propaganda Due, or P2, had its roots in masonic lodges, but ran much deeper in reality. It had complex political connections, and was believed to be the secret government of Italy. (Image: Cris Foto/Shutterstock) The Discovery of the P-2 Roster On March 17, 1981, in the Tuscan town of Arezzo, a special anti- corruption force stormed the home of a local mattress manufacturer, Licio Gelli, suspected to have connections to two fugitive bankers: Roberto Calvi and Michele Sindona. Rumored to be members of the secretive Masonic lodge, Propaganda Due, or P-2, Gelli’s papers were expected to hold information about the fugitives. Instead, however, the police found a membership roster for the lodge, consisting of an astounding 962 names. Even more surprising was that the Italian law enforcement agency Guardia di Finanza’s own commander, Orazio Giannini, was also on the list.

Please improve the article, or discuss the issue on the talk page. P2 is the common name for the Italian Freemasonic lodge Propaganda Due (Italian: Propaganda Two). P2 came to public light with the exposure of Michele Sindona and the Banco Ambrosiano scandal, in which the Vatican Bank had many shares. P2 has been involved in Gladio's strategy of tension - Gladio was/is the name of the secret "stay-behind" NATO paramilitary organizations. Between 1965 and 1981, it tried to condition the Italian political process through the penetration of persons of confidence to the inside of the magistracy, the Parliament, the army and the press. Beside Italy, P2 was also active in Uruguay, Brazil and especially in Argentina's "Dirty War" (with Raúl Alberto Lastiri, Argentina's interim president from July 13, 1973 until October 12, 1973; Emilio Massera, who was part from 1976 to 1978 of the military junta led by Jorge Rafael Videla; and José López Rega, minister of Social Welfare in Perón's government and founder of the Argentine Anticommunist Alliance ("Triple A") as members).

  • Terroris, Drugs, and Subversion: the Craxi Dossier
    Click here for Full Issue of EIR Volume 8, Number 39, October 6, 1981 �ITillSpecialReport Terrorism, drugs, , and subversion: the Craxi dossier by Umberto Pascali Bettino Craxi, head of the Italian Socialist Party (PSI), is now preparing to visit Washington for meetings with President Ronald Reagan this fall. What can be the motive for an American President's granting an audience to a man described in Italy as the "new Mussolini"? Craxi has reached an agreement with the U.S. administration, says the Italian press. The upcoming visit will be the equivalent of an "investiture," in which the U.S. government will give its approval for Craxi to ascend to the "Presidency of the Council," i.e., become Italy's new prime minister. America's old allies, ,the conservative, pro-industrial layers of the Italian Christian Democratic Party, seem to have been tossed aside with little ceremony. This dossier will explain that, for Mr. Reagan, Craxi is a political miscalculation which risks the total destabilization of Italy. The nickname given Craxi, "new Mussolini," is no exaggeration. Politically, socially, and economically, Craxi represents precisely what Mussolini represented at the end of the First World War. Fascism then and now Mussolini also came from the ranks of the Socialist Party, indeed, from its far "left" section. After precipitating a civil war in Italy, after destabil­ izing the country's leading institutions with every weapon at his disposal, from corruption to terrorism, Mussolini and his supporters presented themselves as the men of stability, the men of "governability." Thus was Fascism imposed on Italy.

The present research project contributes to the strand of this literature that proposes a quantitative measurement of the value of the political connections of the firms. The previous literature studied the reaction of the stock market to the seizure of power of specific political parties: for instance the National Socialist German Workers’Party in Germany during the Thirties or the National Fascist Party in Italy during the Twenties. We will not focus on the connections between firms and political parties. Our analysis will be devoted to a clandestine organization operating in contravention of Article 18 of the Italian Constitution that prohibits secret associations. The activities of the P2 (the Italian secret Lodge headed by Licio Gelli) emerged during the investigations by public prosecutors on the banker Michele Sindona for the collapse of his bank.
