Lemon Club Salt & Pepper: GRATIN WITH TOMATOES PROVENCAL

Meanwhile, you do all kinds of cakes and biscuits for the upcoming Christmas
I'm starting with tests for New Year
probably because this 'year will be celebrated at our house
and tradition will be based on fish,
I found this recipe on a recipe Salt and Pepper in August,
actually not really in season
but the result satisfied me with
the poor tomatoes that you can recover now.

Prawns
Breadcrumbs

Hot pepper Garlic Parsley


Basil Tomatoes Capers

Olive oil Salt and pepper


Mix the breadcrumbs with a clove of garlic, a bit 'of parsley and crushed red pepper. In another part
chopped clove of garlic with more parsley, a little 'basil, capers, and mix a couple tablespoons of oil and other breadcrumbs.

Remove the prawns by cutting the black wire on the back,
also make an incision on the belly and stuff with chopped first. Place them
in a baking dish, drizzle with a little 'oil and bake at 180 degrees for about 20 minutes.

Cut the tomatoes into thick slices and toss with chopped the second pass it under the grill for about 10 minutes.

You thought that I would not let themselves be infected by the mania of toast wafting in this period? Not on your life, like every year we will also produce kilos of biscuits types and shapes.
time every year, when a grandchild or friend asks me to rifargli those chocolate stars that both liked them, I do not remember which recipe I used, but this year I run for cover and photographer and carry everything here so I do not find it unprepared.

The first round is up to this recipe that I have seen several times in various blogs,
seems to have been seen on television doing the Ravaioli and is also very similar to the recipe of the famous White millstone that actually leaving the dough a bit 'more often very much alike.
I used as a basis and then divide the dough into 4 parts flavoring separately for different types of cookies.

450

flour 50g starch

200g butter 150g sugar

1 egg

70 g of cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon baking

a pinch of salt

I put in the kneader with accessory leaf, or the robot kitchen flour, starch, butter, baking powder and salt, and I started at high speed to obtain a meal. Apart
I lightly beat the egg, then add sugar and cream, so I poured on the flour and restarted until it becomes a paste rather large crumbs.

Then I divided the dough into 4 parts.

The first I left neutral
so I continued to work the dough until you get a classic slab of pastry.

The second I put in the kneader and I added a teaspoon of cinnamon, ginger and half of a pair of ground cloves, obtaining gingerbreads-like.

the third I added dark chocolate with a knife and chopped zest of mandarin. The fourth

I colored it with a tablespoon of cocoa and a little 'dark chocolate left over from the previous year.

I wrapped all the dough balls with plastic wrap and rested in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

So a bit 'at a time, I started to cut out cookies and bake at 180 degrees for about 12 minutes, without letting them brown too much.

Once I cooled down a bit fun to decorate 'using a cornet of paper with the classical oven glaze made lightly beat egg white with a few drops of lemon juice and add sugar until you have a nice firm texture.

The U.S. bases in Italy nine years ago

What are they and why they are there.

Military bases are sites used by the armed forces to deposit weapons, vehicles, aircraft, men, useful radar antennas to the control of air space to train the troops and allow them to stay. The areas occupied by bases are called "military slavery" because they are parts of territory completely subservient to the armed forces. In these areas, no citizen has the opportunity to construct buildings or agricultural land use. No laws And No. 898 of 24.12.1976 104 of 02.05.1990 may be paid a cash compensation to all those who have enslaved property in the area, (where the property includes agricultural land or a building) because those areas are unusable once transferred to the armed forces.

bases may have extensions and different purposes. There are bases that consist of "just" in ammunition dumps, and others that have radar equipment for the control of the skies, others are remote communication stations. There are great bases that extend for tens and tens of hectares and where weapons are stored, military vehicles, planes, troops, and have a runway for takeoff and landing aircraft, and there are other ships and submarines, which therefore support the activities of the Navy.

In Italy there are many military bases: some are Italian and are used exclusively by the Italian armed forces, but by virtue of secret agreements implemented after the war with the U.S., there are many others belonging to NATO and only used by U.S. armed forces.

official report from the Pentagon, "Base Structure Report 2005 "shows that the U.S. armed forces have 1,614 buildings in our country, with an area of \u200b\u200b892 thousand square meters, and 1,190 buildings have to rent, with an area of \u200b\u200b886 000 m2. Personnel assigned to this basis amounted to 14,000 military and 5,140 civilians, for a total of about 20 000 people.

From a "survey" done by the magazine "Charter" in 2003 that U.S. military installations in Italy are 113.
The full list of these bases, installations is available on the web
at: www.carta.org/rivista/settimanale/2003/06/06elencobasi.htm

( in the figure on the left: the relocation of U.S. bases in Italy and NATO-Source: magazine "Charter" - www.carta.org )




areas occupied by U.S. military bases have extra-territoriality, and no Italian (or the judiciary or the parliament, nor journalists, nor the police) have the right and opportunity to enter it. They can not see what is inside them and what should happen.
They enjoy extraterritoriality also embassies around the world, but it is easy to see that a building that houses an embassy is very different compared to a large area of \u200b\u200bland
several acres full of weapons ...
For the latter is, in practice micro-states, areas that are not Italian, how can it be to San Marino or the Vatican City. The difference is that in San Marino and San Pietro there are no arsenals filled with bombs and tanks.

The fact that this foundation will enjoy extraterritoriality allows the armed forces is another thing: they can initiate combat operations at any time without asking permission from the State of the Republic Italian (in the constitution which, remember, Article 11 reads: "Italy rejects war as an instrument of aggression against the freedom of other peoples and as a means of settling international disputes ..."). Our area is then simply a launching pad.


The U.S. bases or more in general of NATO, in Italy, were built largely after the Second World War, during the Cold War between the Soviet bloc and the Atlantic.
were intended to "protect" Italy from a possible expansion of the USSR and allowed the U.S. to certify that troops and military vehicles a few miles from Soviet bloc countries. Italy is just a few miles from the former Yugoslavia, which at that time was under Soviet control, and this has made it an important outpost, an area of \u200b\u200bgreat strategic importance.

The United States has pursued throughout the postwar decades, until the year 1990 (fall of the USSR) a very strong control of Italy (as well as in other Western European nations), to prevent the affirmation of communism .
Recently, after years and years of investigation by Italian magistrates, made quite complicated by false leads and secrets of state, is showed that existed in our country, hidden within the bases of NATO, illegal paramilitary groups that had as purpose to go into action as soon as there was a danger of Soviet invasion of Italy. One of these paramilitary groups was GLAD that the Italian courts have recently considered "subversive organization of the constitutional order." What the judges have pointed out is that these bands did not play only the role of defense "is waiting for the communist enemy," but acted actively in the Italian territory to heavily influence the politics and the election results.

One of the actions on which they had some influence is known as a "strategy of tension" through attacks that caused terrible massacres of civilians whose fault was leaning against left-wing groups, was created a climate of tension, criminalizing the many movements of struggle and the same party Communist, moving from left to right the balance of the election results.
is now proven the close relationship between the bombers (neo-fascist) and secret facilities, including international, including U.S. intelligence does not lacking in several attacks have occurred in the 60-70 years in Italy. U.S. bases had this in mind the role of the hiding place for the paramilitaries, as well as places for training.
Another thing very seriously (because Italy is a republic in which sovereignty belongs to the people, who exercise it through elections), is that this army hidden in secret U.S. bases located in Italy , could take action even if the Communist victory in the elections.
is why the judges have called Gladio training subversive of constitutional order.
[on this subject there is an enormous amount of material, part of which is now conclusively proven and no longer a mere "hypothesis". Would take too long to talk about in this article, but it is important know that library as well as on the Internet there are many documents about]
(photo: December 12, 1969, bomb in Piazza Fontana)

The conclusion of this interlude is, therefore, that thanks to the U.S. bases have been to control Italy during the Cold War.
But today, one wonders, why the U.S. bases are still here, if the Cold War is over sixteen years?
The geopolitical world has evolved a lot since the 90's and still is changing. There are new balance of power among powers, the United States has become the largest military and economic power (increasingly opposed But China, which is growing at enormous rates) and are engaged in what they call "global terror war at" that the global war on terror. The attack the towers of New York on 11 September 2001 (terrible bombing that killed three thousand civilians and on which, however, there are still many things to be clarified, as evidenced by the increasing amount of U.S. citizens after they have expressed great doubts as to the documented official version given by the U.S. government), the U.S. led war in Afghanistan and Iraq, accusing both countries of being bases of Islamic terrorism, and accusing Iraq of possessing weapons of mass destruction (that turned out to be a false).

It is clear that the real U.S. interest is directed to energy resources present in the Middle East (and this is the real reason for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and of great concern "shown by the Bush administration against another nation rich in oil: Iran).

Just take a look at a geological map or a map showing the location of oil fields, methane, etc., to see how "hot" zones of the planet, the ones where there are conflicts or tensions, are those where the greater the amount of energy resources. And
countries bombed by the U.S. in the war on terrorism, are coincidentally one of the richest oil in the world.

Well, the American bases located in Europe and Italy now have a new role: they serve as an outpost for military actions in the Middle East and Africa, and it is conceivable that they can serve one day for new wars on other fronts, always in the context of "global terror war at."

have already served for the military actions of NATO in Kosovo in 1999 (the planes that bombed Serbia from March 24 to June 9, 1999 took off from military bases raised in Italy, as well as aircraft carriers located in the Adriatic), for U.S. actions in Afghanistan in 2001 and those in Iraq in 1991 and 2003 ... (From Camp Derby, military base near Livorno, left 60% of the ammunition for the first Gulf War, and similar figures were repeated in 2003).

The fact that the U.S. bases in Italy serve as the vanguard for the wars to the south they are fantasies of some of the world peace? No.
What is the role of these bases is evident from the report submitted May 9, 2005 the President and Congress of the United States by the Commission on Review of Overseas Military Facility Structure of the United States, available on the web page
http://www.fas.org/irp/agency/dod/obc.pdf
"The global network of U.S. bases - the report states - is the skeleton on which model to the flesh and muscles of our operational capacity, "whose main purpose is to" pursue our interests in the world. " In this context, "the U.S. presence in Europe remains crucial."

Also from official documents show that U.S. bases in Italy and Europe need to "maintain U.S. influence and leadership in NATO: the extent that significant U.S. forces remain in Europe, leadership can be maintained." E 'therefore an official document at the highest level to state explicitly that the U.S. military presence in Europe not only serves to project force in areas of strategic interest, but keep Europe under U.S. leadership.

Geography of the bases.

Here is a description of the largest U.S. bases in Italy.

Aviano. [Pordenone]. It is the largest forward base, nuclear storage and telecommunications hub in Italy USAF [hosts at least three thousand American soldiers and civilians]. In the base are deployed operational forces ready for combat USAF [a group of fighters]. There are also the Sixteenth Air Force and the Group of Thirty U.S. Air Force fighter and a squadron of Marine F-18. It is assumed that the basis for guests, underground bunkers whose construction was authorized by Congress, dozens of nuclear bombs, under a secret agreement and therefore never discussed in parliament (called Stone Ax). These nuclear bombs are only a percentage of 480 nuclear weapons stationed on military bases throughout Europe in the framework of the NATO "nuclear sharing" [see the Greenpeace dossier available on the Web at http://
p2-raw.greenpeace.org/raw/content/italy/ufficiostampa/rapporti/disarmo.pdf ]

Camp Ederle [Vicenza]. NATO headquarters and command Setaf the U.S. Army, which controls the forces American in Italy, Turkey and Greece. On this basis there are the ground combat forces: one airborne battalion, an artillery battalion with nuclear capability, three companies of engineers. Important telecommunications station. The military and American civilians working at Camp Ederle should be about two thousand.
in Vicenza and planned to build a new base in the area of \u200b\u200bthe former Dal Molin airport, they speak of "enlargement" because it would be to support the Ederle base already, but the territory on which it is built is currently no military installations. Against this project hundreds of thousands of Italians are mobilizing In recent months, both for environmental reasons, above all, for political reasons to repudiate the war.

Ghedi [Brescia]. USAF base station, communication and storage of nuclear bombs (one estimate is about 40 devices).


Camp Darby [Pisa]. The Setaf (Southern European Task Force) has here the largest warehouse logistics in the Mediterranean [about 1,400 men and a staggering amount of ammunition, bombs, military]. The base is

closely connected through a network of canals to the nearby port of Livorno, a supply base of naval units stationed in the Mediterranean.
Camp Derby the eighth group to support U.S. Army and is the basis of EU's support for U.S. forces in the south of the Po, in the Mediterranean and North Africa. This is where the parties are on board ships, most of the vehicles and ammunition for Iraq, both the first and the second (and current) Gulf War in Iraq. It is after dark and not yet known movements of U.S. naval vessels in front of the port of Livorno on the evening of April 10, 1991 the ferry Moby Prince crashed into an oil tanker was at anchor, 140 people died that night. The U.S. has never collaborated with the Italians to shed light on the affair, and still there are many things yet to be clarified.
summer instead of 2000, due to the collapse of the ceiling of eight ammunition depots in the base, he created an emergency situation: in twelve days we had to remove remote-controlled robot (due to the hazardous operation) over 100 000 ammunition, with a net explosive weight of 240 tons, without which neither the people nor the civil authorities were informed. To remove an old World War II bomb found in some field other hand, evacuate people from the surrounding area. And if something went wrong? (pictured: the fence around Camp Darby)

Capo Teulada [Cagliari]. Da Capo Teulada, Capo Frasca [Oristano ], Approximately 100 km of coastline, 7,200 hectares of land and more than 70 000 hectares of areas off limits: shooting range for practice flying and naval aviation of the U.S. Sixth Fleet and NATO. Beautiful beaches are devastated during the exercises (exercises in which they used real bullets and bombs).
Between 2003 and 2004, the Sardinian fishermen in the area of \u200b\u200bCapo Teulada, resulted in a series of courageous protest against the continuing practice naval aviation, in violation of the prohibition of navigation. The media, in a shameful way, gave no notice of those protests. Only thanks to the alternative press, the "counter-informa-tion" through free newspapers and radio and television news web could turn. The fishermen go to sea in spite of the categorical prohibition of the American military, which even turned against them a few shots, fortunately fruitless. The fishermen asked him to get back to "their" sea to fish freely. And above all demanded the reclamation of a vast sea area, totally polluted by thousands and thousands of munitions fired during exercises
... In the summer of 2004, some bullets fired from a ship by mistake ended a few meters from the deck of some tourists who were taking the sun on a beach in the area. Luckily there were no consequences.

Naples. Command Security Force Marines. U.S. submarine base. Command U.S. Air Force for the Mediterranean. Port normally used by the U.S. military and civilian units. It is estimated that annually pass through Naples and Livorno about five containers of military equipment.

San Bartolomeo [La Spezia]: Research Centre for submarine warfare. Composed of three structures. First, the SACLANT, a subsidiary of NATO is not mentioned in any map of the Atlantic Alliance. The SACLANT would play unspecified marine research. Then there Maricocesco, an agency that provides spare parts for ships. MARIPERMAN Finally, the Standing Committee for the experiments on materials of war, consisting of five hundred and eleven institutions [artillery, ammunition and missiles, underwater weapons].

Sigonella [Catania]. Main land-based U.S. Navy in the central Mediterranean, logistical support of the Sixth Fleet [about 3,400 troops and American civilians]. In addition to units of the U.S. Navy, is home to several USAF tactical squadrons: helicopters of the type HC-4, F14 Tomcat fighter and A6 Intruder, groups of F-16 and F-111 equipped with nuclear bombs of the type B-43, for more of 100 kilotons each.

The military base at Sigonella in Italy is known for being the scene of a historic event: It was
October 12, 1985: a few days before a commando of Palestinian Front for the Liberation of Palestine had hijacked Over 400 passengers of the Italian ship Achille Lauro off the coast of Egypt, demanding the release of some arrested Palestinians. An American passenger was killed. The result of the seizure was made by terrorists, which were taken up on a plane Egyptian directed in Tunisia. During the flight, however, four American fighter planes forced the passenger plane to change course and land on the runway of an American base in Sigonella, Sicily. In fact, the Americans wanted to seize command, but the then prime minister Craxi took a firm stance, "the murder of American tourist took place in Italian territory (on the ship Achille Lauro) and therefore the Palestinians must be processed by the Italian courts, "he said.
The Egyptian plane, standing on the runway of Sigonella, was surrounded by American soldiers in combat gear, but the orders were made to deploy the Italian defense to turn around the Americans, the Italian carabinieri.
were moments of extreme tension, with the risk of a gunfight between two armed forces of allied countries.
Eventually the Americans gave up the encirclement and the hijackers were arrested and handed over to Italian justice. It was one of those rare cases, if not the only one in which Italy held their heads high against the U.S., will not follow his demands .

The massacre of Cermis

On February 3 '98 at 13:36,

The aircraft collided with the cables of the cable car and the passenger cabin during descent, was at a distance of about 300 meters from the arrival station.

The point of impact was estimated at 50 feet away from the cabin down the stessa.La 'impact caused the instantaneous strength of the cables supporting and driving the western segment between the valley station of 'plant and the first pylon sostegno.La cabin fell to the ground and all twenty people died transported.

Vicenza: Vicenza


E 'come to sandpaper the appeal of the permanent garrison against the U.S. base at Dal Molin di Vicenza, for a national demonstration of protest on February 17.
The appeal was sent as a post to the article "say no to the Vicenza base," published some time ago.
publish the post below to make it more visible.

February 17: national demonstration in Vicenza
THE FUTURE IS IN OUR HANDS: DEFEND THE LAND FOR A FUTURE WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF WAR

Presidio Permanente, Vicenza, 23 January 2007. After months
for governments and communities have bounce the responsibility of the decision, the National Executive has given the U.S. ultimatum: "the Government does not oppose the new U.S. base," Romano Prodi has ruled. After just two hours, thousands marched through the streets of Vicenza center cittadino.Chi thought he had ended the game had to think again, because Vicenza has moved, has invaded the streets, built the permanent garrison. Eight months of mobilizations, culminating with the great event of last Dec. 2 - when 30,000 people marched from the Ederle at Dal Molin, demonstrated the strong opposition of the population to the new military installation. But the Government, After repeatedly insisted on the centrality of the opinion of the local community, succumbed to the economic interests and militari.In this is seriously hampering the position of the City Administration that strong of consent given by the Berlusconi government in the operation, the first was hidden from the public project for three years and then snubbing the opposition of the population, approved during a Town Council armored and challenged, and finally denied the public the opportunity to express themselves through a referendum.

Despite all this success is something new Vicenza: Vicenza has not surrendered to the charges. In this way we found men and women, students and the elderly, workers and professionals, we have crossed in the mobilizations, we discussed with them at public meetings and conferences.

Together we have built the Presidio Permanente, a place crossed by thousands of people in a few days. Vicenza
not give up on charges.
Vicenza do not want a new military base at Dal Molin.
Vicenza has moved.
Thousands of people have occupied the platforms of the station just two hours after the press conference with Romano Prodi, and days following a series of initiatives, from the deans of students for the event at City Hall and the Prefecture, confirmed the determination of cittadini.La Our city has rediscovered the Community dimension popular and has reactivated the networks of solidarity and in other contexts - for example, ionic or Scanzano in Val di Susa - led to a devastating halt projects.

from all parts of Italy, we got a great solidarity, a warm support. Events and principals have taken place in these days in every corner of the country. Against a choice opposed by the local community wherever it occurs and is discussed.

Our journey is just beginning. Nothing has been concluded with the expression of opinion government. Citizens, associations and trade unions have decided to oppose, many parliamentarians are self-suspension.

Vicenza wants to stop this destruction, if necessary, following the invitation of many to play peacefully in their bodies.

We want to give a unified voice, peaceful and committed to this outrage.

Vicenza calls everyone to mobilize against the militarization of a city, against the construction of a base that will be built in less than two kilometers from the Palladian Basilica, will consume as much water as they need 30 thousand people, will cost taxpayers millions of euro (41% of the cost of maintaining U.S. military bases in our territory is covered by the Italian Government), will be the outpost for future guerre.Vicenza wants to build a great national event for February 17; we want to color our roads with the rainbow flags and those against Dal Molin, but also with those for the defense of common goods and land, labor and the dignity and quality of life. A plural and popular march, capable of aggregating the many sensitivities that in recent months have decided to fight the Dal Molin, because we believe that diversity is a treasure to be valued as the unit is a tool to search for this challenge. Politicians and party men who share the responsibility of local and national governments address the invitation to participate without their flags, we ask you a sign of respect towards the many women and many men these days they felt betrayed by the parties and institutions, we ask you, also, to enhance the choice of those, these days, chose to resign or auto-hang in protest. A protest that, we hope, will have further evidence if the Government would not pay its decisions.

We are against Dal Molin reasons for planning, environmental, social, but also because we repudiate war. Precisely for this reason we do not accept any shameful barter with the refinancing of the mission in Afghanistan.La our struggle has not been exhausted.
in Vicenza, February 17, against any new military base, declassified for the bilateral agreements that regulate the presence of the bases for the defend their land and commons, for real leadership of local communities and cittadini.Il future is in our hands: we defend the land for a future without war bases. On February 17, all in Vicenza!

Can You Remove Sperm With Water

call to action says NO to the U.S. base



(photo: the manifestation of the December 2, 2006 in Vicenza against the U.S. base)

A large military base to serve as a repository of resources, weapons and men ready to be used in the Middle East for future wars: this is the project of the Americans, who want to install in the area of \u200b\u200bthe airport Dal Molin di Vicenza base logistics 173esima aviation brigade-transported U.S.. In a

Americans throughout the area of \u200b\u200bthe "Dal Molin" which stands a short distance from the center of the Venetian town, is to become a military zone.

In that area will be secured by sixty tanks, 85 armored various types, 14 self-propelled mortars, heavy, spy planes, howitzers, rocket launchers etc positions. etc.. (The list is long). Buildings will be built to house about two thousand U.S. military will be allocated here and then all you need to make a military base there: supermarkets, bars, gyms, sports fields, to ensure that the base can live independently, like a piece of the United States in Italy, without having to get in touch with the local culture.

's so running the bases in fact: they are islands, where the Italian state has no sovereignty, (not for nothing called "military slavery"). The difference from those belonging to the Italian armed forces, however, is that the Americans are covered by military secret and there's no way even to the judiciary and the political world (let alone journalists) Italian know what goes on inside them.
The construction of the base in Vicenza is not a novelty for Italy in our country of American bases there are in fact dozens of them. Some are U.S. only, others belong to NATO. In the years of the Cold War had a strong utility for the U.S., because it allows them room-to amass weapons and soldiers a few hundred kilometers from the USSR, and it is known that our country had a high strategic value because it lies midway between what was blocking NATO and what was the Soviet bloc.

E 'was discovered in recent years that many U.S. bases in Italy served as a "hiding place" for men engaged in special missions intelligence, as was the training Glade. (All this came out only in the early 1990, ie after the collapse of the USSR).
The history of Italy has been deeply influenced by the Americans since the Second World War to the fall of the USSR and also thanks to the presence of these bases on our territory, which allowed greater control and action of the secret service in alliance with Italian characters.
We fought the Cold War is like that.
But today, with the Cold War long over, why the Americans still interested in our area?
The fact is that Americans are currently engaged in the "war on terror" aimed at "destroying" terrorism. For President Bush and his administration are no "rogue states", countries that are dangerous for the West, which should be controlled even in the military. Bush calls it a "war for freedom," but many people have serious doubts about this reasoning and find the real reason instead of these "preventive wars" in the interest of Americans to control parts of the world rich in natural resources such as oil and gas. Economic reasons in short.

American bases located in Italy, therefore, serve (and have already served) as a launching pad advanced for future military actions in the Middle East, which is much longer and will be a "hot zone".

I say that because they have already served only three years ago, the war in Iraq, hundreds of tanks left by the largest Italian American bases aboard freight trains and then embarked on naval vessels.
Perhaps someone still remembers the rail blocks that some anti-militarist groups made at the time and now must respond to serious allegations. They are on trial, while those who bombed his seat on the seats of power.

The parade on December 2.
In our country, fortunately, there is a large proportion of people without has a liking to the wars, and a fortiori does not want its territory to be used to store weapons and as a launching pad for air laden with bombs and tanks.
Therefore rebels when decisions from above is that for months in Vicenza citizens are busy building committees, collecting signatures, making a work of grassroots information to say no to the base, and a few days ago , Dec. 2, there were 30,000 to express their dissent from all over the north-central Italy.
a great success for a city that has only 100,000 inhabitants, and a protest that was started from a few thousand people.

It 's a real shame, as well a severe form of misinformation that broadcasters have not spoken to 2 pm and that only a few newspapers the next day we told the Chronicle.

Sara, a student who was the second in Vicenza to parade along with those thirty thousand, tells Sandpaper " there was a lot of people, practically the whole city was in the square. In front of the Dal Molin airport, where it should rise to the base, the windows of all houses there was a white flag with the words "No Dal Molin". The parade was a lot of people in Milan, Trieste and Florence, also a lot of families with children. Among the slogans written on banners was more effective: "Italy is not the U.S.," and then the historic "via Italy from NATO NATO via Italy. Vicenza is working to do a lot, collecting signatures, organizing meetings in neighboring countries ... "

addition to declaring their abhorrence of war protesters justify their non arrival of the Americans with environmental issues, (l 'Impact of a base so large it would certainly be impressive for the area, with concrete, continuous movements of military forces), with the social question (to live within walking distance of a base filled with war materials and with over two thousand soldiers is not a trivial matter , and other incidents around Italy testify which can become a serious problem for the society that lives there).

As always there are those who dissociates himself from the protest. For the most part are a few traders or people in some way to profit from the arrival of the Yankees.
A demonstration of thirty thousand people is not a trivial matter, and one wonders what will the government now. Defence Minister Parisi and Foreign Affairs D'Alema, said in recent weeks that the project's base is "consistent with the defense policies of our country." But then you are more pronounced.

What is certain, however, go as he goes, is that Americans troveran-no in Vicenza and a tenacious resistance decided, resistance we have seen in recent months and years in Italy several times: there is a new way of doing politics in this country, which is no longer only under the banners of political parties, but that starts from individual citizens, meeting in committees and associations.

Many of these social struggles, "the 2000s", in Italy, have the character to be mobilization of citizens, local revolts, claiming the right to decide what should be done on the territory in which they live refusing decisions imposed from above, the central state.

It 's the case of Scanzano Jonico, Acerra, from Val di Susa, the Messina Bridge, battle against the privatization of water supplies ...

the latest news.

January 9, 2007. U.S. Ambassador Ronald Spogli, a visit to Vicenza, is strongly contested by several hundred protesters. His car was blocked, and police charged the demonstrators. One person was injured.

The ambassador was in Vicenza for a series of formal meetings, and probably test the waters in view of the possible construction of the base.

January 15, 2007. The majority in parliament is divided on the basis of Vicenza, Prodi takes time and does not say yes or no, while the various parties of the center-left coalition come different and opposing positions. The radical left (Communist Refoundation, the Italian communists and greens) are clearly against the construction of the U.S. base, and in fact have shared so far the protests have taken place in the Venetian town, but the most moderate of the coalition but is said to favor, stating that say no to the base would be an act of anti-American.

I wonder: is an act of anti-American to give up once again to be servants of the most powerful nation in the world, giving pieces of land for military action even share that?
