The first articulated example of the growing public outrage against Silvio Berlusconi held today in Milan Palasharp. Convened by the Association for Freedom and Justice, intellectuals like Umberto Eco, Roberto Saviano, the pianist Maurizio Pollini, journalist Concita De Gregorio and Paul Ginsborg, a historian English and Italian citizen, have now demanded the resignation of Prime Minister to some 9,000 people who filled the sports center and several thousand others who have followed the event from the outside screens.
The most ironic and poignant intervention has been to Umberto Eco "I have come here with great skepticism, thinking that however much we yell, Berlusconi never resign. We thought it was only in common with Mubarak a niece, and now we see it has also this defect does not resign. Not even the army is against, "he joked.
"Why not our head of state resigns?" Eco continued amid laughter from the audience. "First, because doing so is in the hands of judges. And secondly because it has members willing to do anything, still have not contributed enough to the pension or have not received enough jewelry. It is well supported.
What we do here, then? We come to defend the honor of Italy ", has continued to applause. "We have come to remind the world that we are a nation of pimps, not all if we had money we would do the same, we are not like those parents who encourage their daughters to go to parties to see what falls out.
Perhaps we are a minority , but no matter. For Fascism only 11 university professors swore no allegiance to the Duce. But they saved the honor of Italy. " The author of The Name of the Rose also explained that are sick of receiving reprimands when traveling abroad. "For months received smiles of solidarity, now look at me wrong and I say 'but why do not you say anything." I am outraged.
Do not know that this fight. Today there are foreign journalists here. Finally you will see that there are Italians who say no, that are different from their brothers worse. Now just about increasing the number of those who are willing to go down the street every day and say no. We do not.
And not because we are of those who go to bed soon. I go to bed late because I read Kant. " Gustavo Zagregelsky, former Constitutional Court judge has opened the ceremony by reading the manifesto Arcore nights and Italian night, which explains what you are looking for mobilization. "Italians want legality, not collusion, they want security, not protection, they want to be citizens, not customers.
They can not over this situation. They do not want to go outside the country to avoid being humiliated." The excitement has reached the stage presence of Roberto Saviano. The palace has been standing up and shouting "Roberto, Roberto." The author of Gomorrah, 30, recalled that "Italian democracy is hostage to the purchase of votes occurs in the south, where a vote costs 50 euros, or 15 when it comes to primaries." The writer added that it must "speak to the other part of the country", which still supports the prime minister, "to avoid the logic of division and find common ground without resolving who is more pure.
We need to rediscover the unity of country. get your hands dirty, get involved, take risks. Resist as did Giovanni Falcone, Paolo Borsellino and others who fought against the state criminal for defending the constitutional values. " Saviano recalled that Italian democracy is not like classical totalitarianism, but added that "anyone who criticizes the government knows it is facing intimidation and the discrediting of mud machine.
Who has used for years for extortion gossip control their political rivals does not feel threatened by any revelation. The idea is to lay the idea that we are all equal, but not true, not all are equal, not all do the same. When we are all equal wins the most 'furbo ', the most mischievous.
" The pianist Maurizio Pollini has reminded so many years' suffering because Italy has a government worthy. " Now a change can be glimpsed a different future, but uncertain, has warned: "Although our dream can be made, there may be a new referendum even more dangerous for our democracy.
We have suffered long the blindness, apathy and indifference and stupidity around us. We have been told lies after another. It is necessary for people to react. But there are things far worse than the holidays: the president has created around him a vast network of corruption. " Pollini has also touched a sensitive issue: "The Mafia has always supported Forza Italia," he remembered.
"Friends of the president have been convicted of complicity with the mafia. It is possible that the mafia is in love with the president and be an unhappy love. But I think this government can fight against the Mafia as much as we need." Pollini also cited also reprisals against journalists.
"Susanna Camusso, leader of the majority union, the CGIL, has gone a step further in criticizing the prime minister." When we say that Berlsuconi should resign for a more just, no think only about the judiciary, but also in social justice. His constant aim is to divide: the workers, students, foreign nationals, their young parents.
" Italy needs to ancient words, added the union, wearing a white scarf in mourning for democracy and freedom "rights, responsibilities, duties, respect people, not separate bodies of the mind. We need an understandable language. We must speak Berlusconi, not girls 18. No one can speak of 'veline' to say nothing of the responsibility and the risk of being subjected to blackmail the president.
We have a serious problem in this country with sexuality. Many men do. And it's not a joke. Women are not people but objects and trade. " Paul Ginsburg, author of Salviamo L'Italia (Save Italy), two years ago obtained Italian citizenship, encouraged by telephone to the Italians to rebel against "the system" to restore democracy and rediscover a new relationship between public and private: "Berlusconi has invited us all to be predators of the public.
Now we must reclaim the public," he said. Through a video, former President Oscar Luigi Scalfaro has asked citizens not to surrender, has called for "freedom and dignity" and recalled that the first premise of a democracy is the independence of the judiciary " . "Berlusconi has the duty to defend against the judiciary above all for respect for constitutional principles."
