MARBLE AGAINST THE MARSH
( translated from the fcb page ItalExit Taurinorum )
August 14, 2018 The collapse of the Genoa Bridge an absurd tragedy that killed 43 compatriots destroying entire families throwing all of Italy into despair and destroying with excruciating pain all the families of those who lost their lives on that cursed day. 12 days before the collapse I crossed that bridge with my grandson, I was going towards Tuscany, I remember I had goosebumps at the thought of having passed over that bridge a kind of 'minefield' and that only fate or the good God had spared life to us as to many others but the fatality of the inevitable damned collapse has remained powerless. I remember the heavy thunderstorms that were hitting right in that area, in Tuscany in the Argentario area where I was, it will arrive on the following day, that mid-August ( National Celebration in Italy ) I did my best to pass it well doing all the best I can to do of that day a special one but nothing could distract me from listening the radio news, from the information and from the desire to follow the news from the iphone, a part of me was distracted astonished I looked at my nephew and especially my sister with the rest of the family who joined us just before the 15th of August, I thought it could have happened to them.
Today's newspapers are almost all stuck on the change of direction of the government's provisions on anti-covid restrictions to be adopted on all national transport, especially trains, between Minister of Health Speranza, who is not a doctor and De Micheli, a degree in Political Science, a small internal short circuit, in terms of mutual information / collaboration, has caused inconvenience to thousands of Italians who have found themselves without the possibility of being able to leave for the holidays, many commuters, many others on their way to reach the village house and a good portion of people who can however despite everything still to go on vacation.
As usual, this government messes up and only generates confusion and nervousness, despite having contracted the decisions to be taken on what to do to thousands of committees of experts and technicians.
The reactions of the people present at the state funeral were of opposite effect when the ex-Minister of Defense Pinotti appeared, who is born in Genoa and the then secretary of the Democratic Party, Martina, controversies followed in the denials on the day after newspapers etc.etc. not even in such a tragic situation they had the decency to close their mouths to stop for a moment that media propaganda which in essence has become the 'Political Making' in Italy. For the inauguration of the new bridge, today's journal of Genoa Il Secolo XIX titled 'They did it, by putting the photo of a worker in the center of the frontpage and writing the names of each of the workers who worked on the very modern project that Renzo Piano donated to his city, the former Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Toninelli like his predecessor Del Rio at most could draw a triangle and yet they played the role of that Ministry.
The umpteenth association of relatives of 'Victims of the State' made his voice heard, the government wanted to celebrate with great pomp the inauguration of the new bridge, they decided, as is understandable, to desert the ceremony but they also asked President Mattarella to intervene to reduce the current executive's' political media propaganda 'aspirations, the meeting will take place separately, therefore, while the mainstream will give live reporting of the event defined by Conte' The Symbol of an Italy that starts again' at 6.30 pm and so on the usual sentences of circumstance, from one celebration to another, yesterday the 40th celebration of Bologna train station bombing, for many people, relatives of victims it's the moments of remembrance and bitterness follow one another over the years while for others it's a knot in the throat throbbing. During the years changed gov and different ones have attended these celebration moment, a lot of today's Politicians were just children when trains, planes etc. etc. jumped in Italy. The same people who had taken the applause and selfies during the funeral of the victims of the collapse brought back to the actual coalition government that Democratic Party 'Pro EU Policis of cuts and cuts here and there' which has great political responsibilities and not only about the management of infrastructure of the country in general in the past 20 years A dramatic day that should have triggered a People's Uprising rather than celebrations in Great Style as they would have liked to do and as they will do anyway with the mainstream services that will follow the inauguration of the umpteenth 'State Massacre' without guilty at bars and without responsibility for a political class that instead has a thousand faults and two thousand responsibilities as well. Italy is a beautiful but delicate country for natural reasons at the same time it needs constant maintenance of its infrastructures, when nature is not there to hit is almost always certain of the lack of man, from that world of politics of incapable, scoundrels and various businessmen whom I generally define as 'Eat Treacherous Bread'.
During the Fascist period, the whole of Italy was redesigned, swampy areas disappeared forever, solid bridges and infrastructures built with all the trappings, thanks to the use of the best minds that the Nation had and that Fascism had involved in government direct action , even the foundation of new cities, the Italy of Italo Balbo's transnational flights which, from the Orbetello lagoon, where I was at that moment, left on August 12, 1933 in that historic and exceptional undertaking,it was the second flight , celebrated on his arrival in Chigago and New York as a divine Giulioo Cesare. ( BLM and Antifa would like to smash the toponymy dedicated to him Balbo avenue in N.Y. Chigago..... ) The image in the world of Italy of national and world primacy of the challenges against the wild forces of nature of pure sporting competitions, of the avant-garde that emerges and asserts itself despite everything in self-sufficiency Autarchy or as was and it's still said of the 'Marble against the Marsh' despite over the years the force of nature has not managed to destroy those infrastructures built during Fascism time while what have been built after collapsed at the first strike and this is worth more than any media pimp of this or that newspaper or TV.
