There is a "case Battisti, the Italian slopes, the inaction of France, the Brazilian prison. But there is also, and above all, the clinical case of the gauche Alps, or rather that environment that one day very Parisian inspired by Che Guevara and another to Voltaire, relaxed ride between exotic and drives great principles of revolutionary democracy.The support committee for Cesare Battisti found themselves illustrious names, or at least well known: first, the writer Fred Vargas, who has bankrolled and protected, and has even found a bank in the Elysee première dame, Carla Bruni, all 'origin - apparently - the meeting with the Brazilian Justice Minister Tarso Genro, who explained the nature of "victim" of the character in question.
Along with Fred Vargas immediately appeared Bernard Henri Levy, philosopher and essayist, noisy musketeer in the service of human rights in Bosnia to Georgia, passing through Russia and Pakistan. Levy, his goodness, refrains from ruling on the guilt or otherwise of Baptists. But does not hesitate to report it, very imaginative, that of Baptists in Italy you want to make the emblem of the years of lead, using it as a scapegoat for the whole season of terrorism, and thus the poor victim of "persecution" and " electoral calculations.
Levy then clings to what he calls the "strange" Italian, according to him contrary to European law: you can judge a person in absentia, and that if the fugitive is arrested is not entitled to a whole new process in its presence, As the sentence has become final. It looks good, Levy, remembered by the evasion of Baptists in '81 and the fact that during the various levels of courts, Italian law provides for the presence of defense of the fugitive, as in fact occurred.
Under the protection of the City of Light to support Baptists were also Philippe Sollers, the guru of French literature and publishing, which at a later time, to tell the truth, tempered his fiery purpose, after he realized that he had not married a great cause, but a great horse shit which does not control the sketches.
And then Gilles Perrault, writer and "communist" radical beliefs, designers such as Bilal, and slow and even senior officials of the League for Human Rights. There was less than the capital's Socialist mayor, Bertrand Delanoe, said that after Battisti "under the protection" of the City, yet in recent days straparlava of "presumption of innocence." The signatures in favor of Baptists, after all, were about 12 thousand: the literary and intellectual than a few thousand souls as white as ignorant.
Why was this year that has accompanied these efforts for the release of Baptists: the mystification constant and accurate for the most recent Italian history. We also put its Erri De Luca when he wrote in Le Monde: "France needed a revolution to change the monarchy into a republic. Italy has needed the shock of the revolutionary '70s, to secure a democracy ....
" Battisti's case was submitted to the ordeal of a man representative of "a generation of losers." Levy himself has likened the Italy of the 70s to Britain to grips with the problem of Ireland, or France during the Algerian war. In short, in Italy in those years, there would be a civil war, and Baptists, like other "refugees" would only be wrong to have lost it.
Baptists and the company would fight against the fascist P2 and regurgitation: none of these intellectuals has bothered to explain (given that no one took the trouble to understand, thirty years ago) that the "fighters" shot in the back of University Teachers , judges, journalists, trade unionists.
O butchers and jewelers, as in the case of Baptists. In this vision, ass, and Romantic Italy is told with drama in Chile, where the Red Brigades touches the role of "resistance". This is the breeding ground of the movement support Baptists, one that allowed him to scram from Paris and arrive in Brazil, which reinforced and legitimized his fabrications by the media, who has sanctified as a writer, so untouchable caste Saint Germain des Prés.
