Letter to the boys of the movement by Roberto Saviano
who ran a stone to the demonstration in Rome has launched against the movement of women and men who were in the square, who attacked an ATM has made against those who were demonstrating to show that they want a new country, a new political class, new ideas.
Each violent act was a vote of confidence in longer-up to the Berlusconi government. The helmets, clubs, burned vehicles, scarves covering their faces: this is not a member who is trying in every way to show another Italy.
The hood, the cobblestones, that the windows are shattered, are the usual, old unbearable reactions that have nothing to do with the variety of movements that marched in Rome and throughout Italy on Tuesday. Cops who obstinately in the handpiece, venting about who has stumbled anger, frustration and fear is a scene that should not happen again. Cops blocks thrown to the ground and beaten by handpieces violent: it is a scene that should not happen again. If it all comes down to the usual way in war, this government has won once again. Reduce everything to fight means to allow the complexity of those events and so the ideas, decisions, projects that are behind are told once again with batons, fire, stones and tear gas. We must organize, and never to let a few hundred idiots egemonizzino a procession of thousands of people. Undermining, ruined.
am writing this letter to the boys, many of them are my peers who are dealing with universities, which are demonstrating in the streets of Italy. Persons who have done these days parades full of life, peaceful, democratic, full of life. I will say, and anger where you put it? The anger of all the days of precarious, the anger of those that arrive later this month and wait for twenty years that something in your life to change, the anger of those who do not see a future. Well that anger, the real one is a boiler full you going, keeps you awake, that makes you do stupid things but it pushes you to do serious things, important. The fifty or a hundred idiots who have pulled back so many naive venting on a truck or a stone-throwing their anger dissipate this charge. Reduce it to a football game for some fun to be able to destroy the city covered by a scarf that makes them unrecognizable and when they are stopped whining, begging her mother to call home and he quickly apologized.
So begins the new strategy of tension, which is always the same: how can we not recognize it? How can we not recognize the scene, always the same? Those hoods are the first enemies to isolate. The "black block" or whatever they are called ultras of chaos is the fireman of the movement. They wear balaclavas, they feel so Subcomandante Marcos, terrorize other students, who screamed in the Piazza Venezia to stop, stop, and turn into a clash between the clubs which is instead a clash of ideas, social forces, projects whose sparks not machines must ignite consciences but, far more dangerous than a tower of smoke that a fire extinguisher off a few seconds.
This government will seek by every means in need of attack who takes to the streets, will try to terrorize the teenagers and their families with a clear message that you send them to the streets and return plagues of blood and violence. But the fools with his helmet and bat all this does not matter. After the game at home, continue to play in the street. But it is not difficult to burn a truck that police officers, police and financiers leave as bait on which to vent those who show hard and rough on the streets, and weak informer to the police station where after ten minutes reveals the names of all his comrades. The infiltrators are always there, ever since the first worker has decided to pull out. And you can always play only if they attended. E 'on this I would like to raise the alarm. It must never happen again.
now part of the witch hunt and we will show that the will of those who parade is violent. There will be a clear strategy to ensure that we can freely gather and express opinions. And all will be worse for a while ', then return to what it was, how it always was. The idea of \u200b\u200ban Italy different, however, belongs to us and unites us. There was joy in the boys who had the idea of \u200b\u200bBook Block, the books as a defense, they mean growing awareness. They mean that the words are there to protect us, that's all part of books, school, education. The students of the universities, the new generations of precarious, have nothing to do with the hooded cowards who believe that smashing an ATM address is capitalism. Even the police institutions in place must demand that such tragedies never happen again in Genoa. Each piece of parade grounds uploaded without generating sympathy for those with helmets and clubs is there to break windows. We must ensure that the streets there are men who have trusted authority on small groups of police officers in these situations that often make their personal struggles, vent frustration and anger. Search in all ways not to trigger the game for too many terrible and funny urban warfare, the two factions, one of them will stand alone.
We, and I'll put even I was only age and - God knows the desire to return one day to demonstrate against everything that is happening - we have our bodies, our words, colors, banners . New: not the old slogan, not the usual truck with the old militants shouting slogans old, old songs, old directives still call it "slogans." That was the story of self-defeat, fortunately a thing of the past. No need to fall into the trap. We must organize, remove the violent. We should stop wearing helmets. The head used to think, not to make the ram. The book block seem to me a wonderful answer to those in black suit without knowing what it says anarchist anarchism even remotely. Do not cover, let him do to others fashion shows with the light in your face and your back straight. He hides who is ashamed of what he is doing, those who are not able to see their future and defending their right to education, research and work. But who shows no shame and does not hide, in fact does the opposite. And if the trucks blocking the road before the Parliament? We will stop there, because the words are coming in all over the world, because it occurs to show the country, who maybe is home to balconies, behind the blinds that there are no rights to defend, that there are those who defend them for them, that there are those who ensures that everything will take place in a civilized, peaceful and democratic because it is Italy that you want to build because that is why it is occurring. Certainly not throw an egg at the door of Parliament dumb things.
All this is much more than a burning truck. Turning the lights on, lights up all the shadows of this country. This is the only battle that we can not lose.
