In a basso Destra - militant neo-fascism in Italy

of AltraVita · Tuesday, 31 March 2009 · 2 9 Trackbacks / Pingbacks

Carlo Bonini discussed in "ACAB - All Cops Are Bastards" with great journalistic depth, the different shades of brown Italian fascism today. He makes fascists of the same problem areas on different sides of the same conflict are - as armed and helmeted police force for "law and order" in a blue uniform and black boots against the "picchiatori" the curves of the Roman clubs in black hoodies and black boots. Both parties tight right, the one officially sanctioned and organized by the state, the other in its own self-understanding, the "conscience of the road" and proponents of "direct action". Bonini very precise theme the internal conflict between the political and organizational rights and "free" rights "militant" faction.

Bonini plays the theme in "ACAB" pass OK, this dichotomy between the rights of "the street" and the pig politicians "up there" and indeed, that's the embarrassment of the book, with all-level view of both sides: on one side of the police officers who feel betrayed by the parliamentary rights and sold because they each Sunday to be sent into battle, which have had to answer for as above, from which they can expect in return does not cover, when "something goes wrong. " (Bonini yes, the investigations cited in the G8 summit in Genoa, as well as the obviously false accusation of a Non-Ultras against a police officer in court - in both cases, the civil servants were dismissed from their superiors and politically responsible, like a hot potato.) On the other hand, the skins, and other Nazis Hools the street from the various Fini, Bossi and Berlusconi, of course, keep anything. But both would like to clean up the mess as never stable - exactly the basic feeling of the 20s in Italy, Germany and Spain.

Well, I must note here that the term "fascism" handled differently in Italy than in Germany and the threshold for various reasons, to refer to itself as "fascists", not only significantly lower than in Germany, but also to any moral expected sanctions. Take as an example only Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati, who last fall his admiration for fascism made ​​it clear. The Duce is still considered by many the "good uncle" seen, who has taken care of "legal" and "order", which wanted no war, and under which Italy was still working out and it "could be proud." This contrasts with today's politicians, including the right provenance, which by Gian Antonio Stella and Sergio Rizzo described as a "caste" are unrealistic, corrupt and inefficient. An assessment of joining the "right of the road", which is rather rely on people like Luigi Freddi, whose article in "Il fascio" dated 20.11.1920 clearly corresponds more to the feeling of the road:

"The fist is the synthesis of the theory ... The well-placed punch every senseless controversy to an end, the full advantage of brevity and power savings. There is nothing precise. Nothing is stronger than a summary of pistol shots. He reached the goal yet, with the initial velocity of 300 meters per second. And concludes his work now, seriously ... Highly efficient because it excludes the possibility of a further continuation of the discussion forever. "
"Il pugno è la teoria della sintesi ... Il pugno ben assestato tronca Tues colpo la polémica inutile, a total Vantaggio brevità e della dell'Economia. Nulla di più SINTETICO. Nulla di più e del colpo SINTETICO Rivoltella Tues. Arriva Destinazione a colla Velocità iniziale Tues trecento metric minuto al secondo. I conclude Subito, seriamente ... Efficacissimo perché evita per semper discussione della il riaprirsi. "

Not a coincidence that the above-quoted passage is from the early years, one of many more than "pure" and "unkorrupt" and "strong" glorified fascism in a 29-page manifesto the Lazio Ultras: "Ultras: oltre il tempo. Storie di Barricate lacrimogeni e " . The pamphlet was published on 23 Roberto Sabuzi February 2008, 41 years, Lazio fan was found. Better known as "He Capitano" . What matters is not the fact that express right ultras in a theoretical work, which is absolutely new quality, that a new "fascism of the road" organized, ideologically and advertises. A manifesto that Bonini describes himself so :

"A hug an original idea of fascism from the early days of anarchy with the spirit of resistance and the need for a new kind of illegality in the curves, which revived the original meaning of the ultra-thoughts while hiding the new directions that are different from that thought inspiration, the need to step out of the 'ghetto' of the stadium and carry out the 'revolt' in the streets. "
"Un abbraccio tra una forma Tues fascismo primordial, delle origini, e il ribellismo anarchico; di una nuova forma urgenza l'di 'clandestinità' che nelle curve recuperi le origini del 'pensiero ultras' rendendo invisibile le sigle nuove quel che pensiero a si ispirano; la necessita Tues rompere il 'ghetto' dello Stadio by esportare nelle piazzas 'La Rivolta' "

Action instead of taking over political power also. Back to the roots. Raw, violent, revolutionary struggle on the streets. Departure from the perceived to be corrupt and soft parliamentary privileges. All this under a revival of the original Ultra-thought (cohesion, loyalty, honor) and rejecting all that is at the moment so adorned with the label "ultra". Simplicity, anger, impulse.

Intolleranza: Come il vento

The parliamentary group is in my view, largely irrelevant to the observed shift to the right in Italy. Politicians - all politicians - in Italy are widely seen as venal and spineless actors who live in Wolkenkuckuksheim and see that they stuff their pockets can corrupt, inefficient, unreliable. It is a myth parroted in Germany like to think that the Italians would be stupid not to see through Berlusconi - who choose the Psycho Dwarf, because he is the only one of anything can move, the only one who is able to act. There is simply no working alternatives in Italy (Prodi docet) and the Italian electorate behaves as more pragmatic than you would expect from Germany. It is just a myth, that parliamentary rights would be excluded: no right Ultrà, Naziskin no, no "Cuorenero" would probably claim to feel overwhelmed by the Salon fascists as above represented.

Dente di Lupo: Calci e pugni

Italy is not Germany. And which in Germany means a contradiction, it must still be one long. Italy has a 2000 year old tradition of compromise, Rumwurschtelns, Handaufhaltens, doing business and is far less calibrated to fixed ideological systems. You can - depending on the point of view - either call or just as corrupt as the opportunistic and non-dogmatic and pragmatic. The italiano medio does not keep long on theoretical considerations, but to see with whom he comes alliances as quickly and efficiently to its destination. On the site itself will need parliamentary and fighting right and just as long as they keep each other well from: The politicians need the infantry to do the dirty work, for example, illegal Roma camp burn down - the foot soldiers need the politicians to create a climate you can undisturbed flaring in the Roma camp. This does not mean that both sides do not loathe and distrust towards deeply.

And as long to move the institutional political rights and the radical militant right in beautiful symbiosis with the Italian daily and one of her incredible success has indicated (in addition to political suicide for the Left of course) that they have succeeded, the angry youth movement and the set-established political rights if not calibrated to unite yet at a certain truce. And that surprised no one in Italy just photos (see below) on which the Milan Mayor Moratti - after all, daughter of the murdered in Dachau partisan Paolo Brichetto Arnaboldi - is shown smiling in a photograph with Roberto Jonghi Lavarini, founder of the Milanese neo-circle "Cuore Nero "shows, the focus of the militant right and has always been promoted by the rulers of the" National Alliance ". From Lavarini (called "Black Baron" / "Il barone nero"), leader of the committee "by Destra Milano" and supporters of the South African "Germanic rights," there are still more photos. With Europe Minister Ronchi, for example.

It was just that Lavarini, founded jointly with Alessandro "Todo" Todisco, leader of the Inter Ultras "Irriducibili" Hammer Skins and the first right centro sociale Milan. Against "Todo" is under investigation for his involvement in the attack on the Roman ultras police barracks after the shooting death of the Lazio fan Gabriele Sandri in November 2007 . "The Nazis were our allies and we respect them.." says Todisco . Probably would Lavarini him not to speak again, the remaining diligent in contact with the German NPD maintains and other right-wing European parties.

And on it goes in the grassroots fascist manifesto the Lazio Ultras:

"We are Roman Ultras and we want to express our discomfort (sometimes disgust) towards an environment where we no longer feel we belong. (...) In the cruelty and harshness of the repression applied by the dealer of the 'opium for the people' (football), the gardeners of the social barbarism, the insidiousness of the pseudo-Ultras, before the God of money, dissolve connections that seemed to last forever and still cause irreparable fractures. "
"Siamo Roman ultras e il nostro vogliamo manifestar disagio (a volte disgusto) nei Confronti di un ambiente più che non ci appartiene (...) Nell'inesorabilità e nella durezza di una repressione invocata Dagli 'spacciatori dell'oppio dei Popoli" (il calcio ), dai seminatori Tues incultura sociale, dalla meschinità degli ultras pseudo-, di Dio Denaro fronte al, Legami fino a ieri indissolubili si sciolgono provocando fratture insanabili ".

Eh gia, pseudo-Ultras and the God of money . Against the background, I wonder no longer, the explosive force "Ultras me: oltre il tempo. Had Storie di Barricate lacrimogeni e "curves in the Roman and Napolitan. A radically shortened summary for everything in politics, curve, football was perceived as obnoxious and what is better still, a guide to action.

After the arson attack on "Cuorenero" on 11.04.2007 to thank the men from the neighborhood Maggiore Cemetery for the support of parliamentarians Paola Frassinetti, Alessandra Mussolini, and Maria Stella Gelmini and especially Carlo Fidanza, Vice President of "Catholic Action giovani". They need each other. More than that, but you need the "boys from the curve." And then there is some overlap between the leaders of the Milanese neo-Nazis and the capos of the two curves Milan: Luca Cassani, former Fossa dei Leoni and today at the Guerrieri (Milan). Alessandro "peso" Pozzoli, former National Alliance and Fossa dei Leoni, today also Guerrieri. Alberto Pozzoli, former capo of the Inter Ultras, indicted for arson attack on a Roma camp in December 2006. And that's just Milan ...

"The most conscious core of the Lazio Ultras has a theoretical background which enables him to recognize in the mythic-fascist group spirit, the essence of a behavior that aims to be an answer, in the proud consciousness of the existence of any political sterility (the ' policy 'is rejected by the rebels as a place of grim games of the type of capitalism and mercantilism, necessarily fall into the logic of capital accumulation of intrigue and lies. "
"Il nucleo più consapevole degli ultras Lazio (...) ha un retro terra teorico che lo porta ad identificare nello squadrismo mistico-fascista L'Essenza di una condotta surface vuole essere una risposta, nella fiera consapevolezza di una sterilità politica contingente (la 'politica' quanto è rifiutata dai Ribelli in Place of Tenebrosi Giochi di tipo capitalistico e mercantilistico, inevitabilmente scaduti a LogiChem Tues Tues accumulazione denaro fondate su intrighi menzogne ​​e) ".

The philosophers have only interpreted the world differently, the point is to change it.

Legittima offesa "Legittima offesa"

"We estimate, without a doubt, much of our associates, with whom we share the radicalism setting the barricade fighters mentality that this is not by chance seen in the first row in the fight, in addition to the oppressed and the excluded (...) For the boys, the fascist squads 1919 and 1920, the rebellion was against uniforms, morals, against the hypocrisy and the weakness of the bourgeoisie. And so we need not wonder that when the call to arms is heard, the battle cry, like a challenge remains in the entire world antifschistische, this classic of 'Duce, Duce'. "
"Riserviamo Stima, senza ombra Tues dubbio, a Quei 'compagni' di cui condividiamo la mentalità radical study, barricadera, che li porta non a caso in prima fila nella lotta a Fianco degli oppressi e degli emarginati (...) As i giovani delle squadre fasciste e del 1919 del 1920 il farsi una fascisti divenne ribellione ai Costumi, alla morale, all ipocrisie all e della debolezze Borghesia. Non può così stupire che quando parte 'la carica all guardie' il grido Tues battaglia, come una sfida intera al mondo Antifascista, riman il classico 'Duce, Duce'. "

zeta zero alfa: front dell'essere

One need not sympathize with what is going on in these heads, it may not approve and we can not resign before that. But what you can do in any case, the angry young men is to ignore out there that went into the 20s and 30s wrong in Germany and Italy already thoroughly. Not for nothing, there are increasing voices of critical journalists and filmmakers who deal very well with the phenomenon of urban violence on the right. Carlo Bonini, filmmaker Claudio Lazzaro ("Nazi Rock"), Mario Capello ("Ho Il Cuore Nero") or Paolo Berizzi ("Bande Nere"), to name a few. Lazzaro and Bonini has the charge of the Stockholm syndrome introduced - to the great emotional closeness to the subject. I do not know how you could have such an instinctive, primäremozionalen, pure rage approaching differently or better. To fight them without understanding them is not working. In the economically weak, corruption-ridden, intellectually paralyzed Italy winds up rage of a generation of marginalized down a path that appears against the effects of the established political rights as a boring bunch of choir boys.

Just think for once, Michelangelo. Today you're here to kick someone's ass, who wants to prevent the reopening of the landfill. On Sundays you're being lynched in the stadium shortly before that of boys full of poison. During the week, you purify the sidewalks as required by hookers and illegal aliens, right? Then, perhaps, nor any social center is staffed with pure or any school. Every day you take a homeopathic dose of anger in you. Perhaps in the expectation that you anyone, at least from time to time, sometimes just picking up the muzzle. How long can still go on like this, Michelangelo, eh? How long can still go on?
- Not long, I think.
- So defend yourself. "

(Carlo Bonini: ACAB Einaudi, 1009, p. 186)

In dubbio mena. If in doubt simply strike.
