Government Gomorrah
hardest months are waiting for the country. As you can read in the services de ilfattoquotidiano.it, Silvio Berlusconi played all out and now dreams of launching a government-style Gomorrah. The problem of the knight, even though most of the so-called liberal commentators continues to pretend not to notice, is always the same: justice. Indeed, the investigations and trials. Involving him and his friends.
The decision of the Constitutional Court set a hearing for December 14 which will be discussed in the law on legitimate impediment so moved him to break the inertia, to lose all inhibitions, and to begin a furious courtship of a parliamentary opposition, some of which frankly unpresentable. It provides that the Consulta, after seeing a number of its members remain indirectly involved in the scandal of the new P2, there will very little to state what everyone knows and that the Quirinal had better know: the rules that avoid Prime Minister and his ministers to be tried during the term of office is clearly unconstitutional.
The outlook for Berlusconi, then, is to end soon before the Court of Milan to answer for alleged corruption by British lawyer David Mills. Indeed some of the corruption of Mills, as the legal, as agreed upon by the Supreme Court, has certainly collected kickbacks for saying what is false in the courts (and save the prime minister from a conviction in the trial for the old bribes to the Guardia di Finanza).
Berlusconi knows that when they had to start his trial would lead to a ruling within a few weeks. The historic fact has already been found (the 600 thousand dollars given to Mills and deceptive testimony in favor of Knight). It only remains to determine whether the evidence collected from there are enough elements to be condemned as corrupting the leader of the People of Freedom (provisional at this point).
a bad situation, in fact. Also because the investigations on the new P2 blew up, or made uncertain, the friendships on which the Knight had hoped to have the judiciary Milanese.
Hence the idea, brought forth not now, but a few months ago, to find a bank in that part of the UDC, which is recognized in Totò Cuffaro, the convicted former governor of Sicily in the first and second-degree aggravated aiding and abetting the Mafia and now the head of which hangs a request for 10-year sentence for collusion with the Mafia.
The transaction, such as fattoquotidiano.it is capable of detecting Cuffaro began when he gave his assent to the passage of many of his loyalists in the ranks of the new Christian Democratic Secretary of Education, Joseph Pizza, an old tool of the first republic tied to different environments.
As he wrote in L'Espresso that time a substantial part of the DC cards are, however, head to the right arm of Berlusconi, Marcello Dell'Utri, who was sentenced on appeal to seven years for complicity with the Mafia. And so the design Berlusconi becomes evident. Although Cuffaro and Beppe Drago - the other Sicilian UDC leader courted by prime minister - now disprove a passage from the opposition benches to the majority (what else could they do?).
Knight wants to find sufficient numbers in Parliament to secure approval in the House even under the so-called short trial (one that plans to kill all the debates that are not entered into within period of time). Not for nothing today the leader in the PDL of Deputies Committee for Justice, Enrico Costa, has called for the quick review of the process were immediately scheduling in September the resumption of work.
But with 33 members already passed to Fini, Berlusconi is very difficult to believe that the law be able to vote without risking sudden showers every day. Hence the move to get to Cuffaro and a dozen MPs from Calabria, Sicily and Campania related to him. All Members to be added to various members of the mixed group and of the center, as Daniela Melchiorre or Riccardo Villari, already about to change his jacket.
Knight enticed everyone not only with the supply of places and benefices. But even with the promise (very pleasing to the various cliques of Italy) to form a parliamentary committee of inquiry on the use of political justice. A Committee that, as reported today the Republic, will have the same powers of the courts. "We will do a job to anyone who wants to prosecute," he said - according to the newspaper - a hawk of the PDL. If Berlusconi
succeed, in short, the country is a government Gomorrah. Supported by a majority of offenders, suspects and convicted - in the first and second grade - for acts of the mafia (Cosentino, Dell'Utri and Cuffaro) and under investigation for kickbacks and political reconstruction of the secret combinations. All united by one goal: to get away. Forever.
