CONSERVATIVE ALLIANCE BETWEEN THE POPE AND SILVIO BERLUSCONI
Benedict XVI, calling the faithful to the Vatican of interfering in Italian affairs
The recent debate on euthanasia clarified the Church's interference in politics.
(di July Algañaraz , Clarin, Argentina - 16/02/2009)

A Mexican que recordara el dicho célebre del general Obregón, lo adaptaría así: "Pobre Italia, tan lejos de Dios y tan cerca del Vaticano". Han pasado dos mil años desde que Cristo se le apareció a Simón de Galilea y le dijo que, con el nombre de Pedro, sería la piedra miliar fundadora de la Iglesia. La única institución que ha sabido sobrevivir y prosperar durante tanto tiempo en este mundo incalificable, sostiene, como es lógico, que no es del todo humana pero sí es seguramente romana. Italia es la patria concreta de la historia del catolicismo. Sus Papas universales la han gobernado en buena parte durante siglos, han matado mucha gente cuando creían que no había otro remedio y nunca han dejado de meterse en considering the country's life above their laws if necessary. Benedict XVI, Joseph Ratzinger of Germany is to meet in April aged 82 and four of his pontificate, "is no exception to the rule. On the contrary, convinced that it should be consistent with its traditionalist religious intransigence, since he arrived has emphasized the vocation of the laity interference reproach.

The stone of the growing scandal Vatican suffocating presence in the life of the Italians was the case of Eluana Englaro, The Girl who was in a vegetative state by a traffic accident and spent 17 years in coma. Its parents made a long battle to stop artificial feeding and let her die in peace.

But at the time of Pope Ratzinger this is impossible, although the Italian courts, with a final ruling from the Court of Cassation, has ruled that it should apply the will of parents and conclude with the aggressive treatment . Several senior figures from the Vatican and the Italian Church, which must obey, said above the law is natural law and that life is not a good available. "

About Peppino Englaro, Eluana's father, the Vatican sparked a fierce campaign directly accusing a murderer from the mouth of several cardinals. Premier Silvio Berlusconi took active part in the race against time matched to the Vatican, the English newspaper El Pais described as "shameful." When Eluana died, the charges became more intense.

Italian President Giorgio Napolitano, was also indirectly accused of murder by conservative politicians of the government.

The Vatican and the Italian Church, which always opposed to pass a law Biological Testament, found in this battle, which has deeply scarred Italy, dividing the country in two between Catholics obedient and indignant laity the opportunity to promote a law that actually serves to place restrictions on wholesale to sterilize their effects. Food and water can not be deleted, will the end of life should be recorded by a clerk with the countersignature of a physician, who must renew every three years.

This weekend began the inevitable protests by secularists. The Democratic Party senator from the opposition center-Ignacio Marino, a doctor, called to prepare for battle. "If the bill (beginning to be discussed in early March in Parliament) goes as planned, we will organize a popular referendum for the abrogation "he said.

Marino promised conservative politicians and the Vatican" a rude awakening " on behalf of the Italian civil rights.

Eluana For the neurologist, Carlo Alberti Defanti, the law is a big step backwards. "I said Defanti - it would be preferable that there is no law."

The turmoil that is winning the political field has a dramatic scenario, that of partido Democrático. Fundado hace menos de dos años como confluencia de los ex comunistas moderados y de un sector de los democristianos, los enfrentamientos debido a la injerencia del Vaticano y al llamado "proyecto cultural" que elaboró el cardenal Camillo Ruini, ex vicario del Papa en Roma, están llevando a enfrentamientos que podrían desembocar en una ruptura. "Si seguimos así, vamos a la escisión", proclamó el líder del ex partido católico La Margarita, Francesco Rutelli.

Rutelli fue el "capo" de los radicales y era un verdadero "comecuras". Hasta que dio una gigantesca voltereta y es hoy un católico de estrecha observancia, jefe of the minority Christian Democratic Party.

In the middle is the pathetic figure of Walter Veltroni Berlusconi who humiliated in the elections of May 2007. Veltroni imagined the alliance of former communists and former Christian Democrats, which is now succumbing to hopeless fights on moral issues. Massimo D'Alema and Pierluigi Bersani lead a frond Veltroni failed to throw out. For the Pope this is the battle of ethics and against moral relativism that is choking the West and Italy is the only specific scenario in which it can implement its rigid beliefs by an ally of Silvio Berlusconi.

Low Ferritin And Low White Blood Count

No Vat, The Rome

Carnival secular and unconventional Valentine's Day. Thousands of people in Rome to demand self-determination and rights
"Outside the Vatican State and the beds '
For the fourth time the parade No Vat

A little' Carnevalon anticlerical, a little 'Valentine's unconventional, a little' pride and a little 'parade. Irreverent, ironic, loud, determined, pungent. For the fourth time coordination Breccia We managed to give shape to the demands of the secular and desires of freedom with a parade of thousands of people from all over Italy which is swarmed to Campo de 'Fiori, around the statue of Giordano Bruno, a symbol irreducibility obscurantism.

They called Vat No obvious contamination with other resistances. A dome blocked in the white flags, the slogan "More self-determination, not the Vatican." On deck: the abolition of the agreed time and of religion, social status and full citizenship for all.

How many have been? The view was to Via Cavour where there is full bend from the metro to the Fori Imperiali. The parade was very dense, the average age down considerably from the very young as Sveva: blonde wig, blue coat and white tunic, Sveva just looks like a lady but a sign warns in her lap, "If you're seeing means that you have taken drugs."

Meanwhile, the procession passes under the Capitol and whistles reminds Alemanno with the anti-fascist character of this lively: it means to be anti-fascist fight against racism, sexism, homophobia, recalls the speaker of the truck head. "A much needed event - Graziella says Bertozzi, but the Venetian and Bolognese take action builds Gay lesbian - was the fundamental experience of the social forum for us to understand that the Vatican is a global company that sells a model of functional behavior to neoliberalism '. Stops because there is a moment to repair the halo of a demonstrator, then continues: "With the repression and standardization bodies it takes to return the bodies of gender, to a family guardian social selfishness. For neo-liberalism that breaks down every form of welfare is a basic requirement to have women to have children at home and cook for a man hunter. "

The background in which it moves the event is to a Rome reinforced the G7 and a society overrun by the Vatican. Some sign him as a "mental Guantanamo." "I do not want to talk about religion but of politics - explains Elena Biagini, Florence transplanted to Rome, who was also Breccia We - the Church is un potere reale che nessuno sceglie. Non è solo una questione di ingerenza, è una vera alleanza tra poteri». Così si finisce a discutere dei paradossi: i credenti sono sempre meno ma i partiti sono sempre più genuflessi; la famiglia etero e cattolica è una minoranza; il mondo Glbtqi conquista visibilità in alcuni campi (dallo spettacolo al cinema alla moda) ma crescono omofobia e transfobia. Dice ancora Biagini: «Ne mandi uno all'Isola dei famosi e mille al Cpt».

Una voce al microfono scandisce le connessioni tra gli anatemi di un papato integralista, le ordinanze dei sindaci sceriffi sui corpi, sulle vite e sulla morte e gli attacchi alla scuola e alla sanità pubbliche. «E all requests on civil and human rights are now off the agenda institutional politics - reminds Federica Pezzoli, coordination trans Sylvia Rivera - are denied care to migrants, the homeless are entered, you store the proposed change of name and sex documents without intervention genital primary and the Church continues to deny freedom of choice and the decriminalization of homosexuality. "

"Berlusconi, like Bush, has an ongoing attempt to ethical state" - notes Giovanni Russo Spena, Communist Refoundation - to enforce the social discipline. " The PRC is a lot of flags and a banner with shuffled the procession. At the start passes Paolo Ferrero, National Secretary, report the internal battle for the secular state. There are also Left criticism, Pcl with Marco Ferrando, with the Cobas Piero Bernocchi but the backbone of the show is given by the myriad of associations and collective world of gay, lesbian and trans Coscioni association with radicals, women Wave abnormal and atheists EU.

"The central themes of today will be the next stage - said Flavia D'Angeli di Sc - because the right answer to the difficulty of steering the crisis of capitalism takes on a fundamentalist." Compared to four years ago, "when there was the euphoria of the first time, today we feel less isolated - tells Liberation Marcasciano purple, soul, of MIT, the Italian movement transsexual - yesterday asked us to focus on the political balance, today the scenario has changed, we feel that there is a need to recognize both the left and in the GLBTQ movement. "

Notes Color: students with the headgear as a nun, a sansebastiano "heretic erotic" files tied to a post, sounds of bagpipes atheist, pink samba, songs of the Rector, Raffaella Carra, Bert and other gay icons, the banner of the town of Sodom and the banner of the Raelian movement (the Martians believe they are atheists). The only security package is allowed is that which contains prophylactic against infections and birth irresponsible. At one point, word spread that the police would seize a caricature of Ratzinger "nazi". The hoisting of the boys Mega (emerging young anti-clerical movement), author of an online magazine and reading public, who are marching in peace until the end.
