dall'eccidio 18th year of Borsellino and young escorts. A reflection, sadly concrete: it will be difficult to get to the truth. What happened during these years? The wave of the anger, the pain of a pure and honest, born in the aftermath Capaci and followed with Via d'Amelio, has vanished. We were not able to turn the mourning into a long wave of deep indignation. Rub the statues of the two martyrs. In the heart in broad daylight. We have not been able to transform the destruction of grief and horror in a push towards a healthy acknowledgment. No cut with the past. None. I remember those days of ninety-two, I was 23, I was the secretary of the PDS citizen of my country, South Italy, July 19 when I heard the news of a bloody Paolo Borsellino and the boys of Commons, I could hardly believe it. I thought the attack on May 23 Capaci had awakened the conscience of the Italian people, that the reaction to the game of mafia and the underworld politician, would have triggered a response that can undermine the power of the mafia and political patronage. Eighteen years later, I realized that the boy dreamer and idealistic back then it was blatantly wrong. In the years of Berlusconi, we are seeing very serious events that bring in that '92. But then the Italian people reacted to the events of tangentopoli, took to the streets to demand justice, throwing pennies ... Today, a sense of numbness lingers in public opinion. The continuing cases of political wrongdoing, the tangled web of politics and mafia circles, sentences excellent, the statements "shared" by defining Dell'Utri Mangano (convicted mafia) his personal hero does not produce any reaction. During those del'92 days we would say that had not died in vain, those wonderful heroes and concrete. Now, for 2010, I could not swear.
