We southerners, we explain why we do not celebrate on March 17 ...
We are often asked why we southerners who do not celebrate the Party of South March 17, and here we get the usual questions and the usual comments like "but then you want the separation as the Northern League," "But not regret the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies "," you can not question the unit of Italy and you expressing your opposition to the March 17 Do you exploit, "but many years have passed and still you complain that you southern and 'all the fault of the Savoy" etc etc ... We try to put things right and to explain thoroughly, once and for all, why not celebrate this day and why to express our disagreement with this day of "celebration" and the homage of President Napolitano to King Vittorio Emanuele II, and especially because we consider it very important for this levied South
On 17 March 1861 there was the proclamation of the "Kingdom of Italy" which in fact was the annexation of certain territory to the Kingdom of Sardinia , da notare bene che mancava ancora Roma e il Veneto che sarebbero stati annessi ca. una decina di anni più tardi, e, soprattutto, non ci fu una nuova entità statale nata con il consenso del popolo ma un semplice cambio di denominazione dello Stato sabaudo che annetteva diversi territori (con campagne di guerra non dichiarata e con plebisciti truffa...) e si autoproclamava "Regno d'Italia". Prova ne fu che Vittorio Emanuele II re di Sardegna continuò a chiamarsi Vittorio Emaniele II re d'Italia (perchè non Vittorio Emanuele I re d'Italia?)e che il primo parlamento italiano fu l'ottavo parlamento di Torino, inoltre furono estese le leggi piemontesi al resto della penisola (come mai non ci fu allora una soluzione federalista che teneva account the differences between the various areas? Perhaps because then the South was the poorest and the rest of the country as' today after 150 years of colonization?). What brought this proclamation in the South?
Ten years of civil war with hundreds of thousands of deaths in the civil war between 1861 and 1870 called "war on brigandage" ("Piedmont and the state 'was a vicious dictatorship that put on fire Southern Italy and islands, quartered, shot, buried alive poor farmers employed writers who attempted to defame the trademark of bandits "- Antonio Gramsci), the disastrous colonial adventures, fascism and other tragedies as the world wars with huge loss of life ... what should we celebrate?
And from the economic point of view?
a looting of wealth, destruction of the nascent industrial and manufacturing base to support the claim of the Bourbon in the north, a fierce escalation of fees (which were much more 'low in the previous period) and especially the conviction Lombrosian that "other than Italy! That 'Africa! The Bedouins of a comparison of these peasants are milk and honey!" "Southerners are African, to make a forced Italian bayonets !"... you read the statements of general butchers and war criminals such as Cialdini Governors or lit as flour sent from Turin.
do not understand why a Republic was born in 1946 is to celebrate a monarchy so nefarious, forgetting that even a king Savoy signed the laws on racial DISCRIMINATION.
short, the South was reduced to a colony from 1861 and met for the first time in the history of the world the tragedy of biblical emigration, a diaspora that even the Jews have experienced in 150 years ... more than 20 southern million have fled their homes, their affections and their roots to go to the center-north or abroad, the diaspora continues to the present day characteristics and modes diverse.Sarebbe was an honor to be part of a single nation, "the language of arms and heart", having paid for "Brothers of Italy" our blood on the Piave to "liberate" the city as distant Gorizia .... but I do not believed to have signs as a thank you "is not dense in Southern or banners in the stadium north-central type" Forza Vesuvius! Forza Etna! earthquake! cholera. "We do not want a return to ancient monarchies but 'paradoxical in a country with ministers who said they clean their parts with less noble flag, we think that to threaten "the unification of Italy," we do not want no war against the rest of the country and no separation even more paradoxical that ... and everything '"Bourbon" is still seen as pure evil and something obscurantist, retrograde and threatening ... while pretending not to see the flags of the Po Valley (State which is not 'never existed in historical reality) or did not hear the racist slogan of the Northern League Meets and anything not outraged, not 'threatening the unity and national cohesion. "
Yesterday the police station in Rome denies us a demonstration on 17 at the Pantheon, where we have expressly stated that we wanted to organize a protest and dissent, civil, peaceful and democratic way and in full compliance with the laws and the President of this Republic .. . once again, without wanting to do the "usual southern victimhood," we are children of God Minor? We are Italian Serie B? We are tired of suffering and we have the right and duty to express our dissent, the article tells us 21 of our Constitution, and then insist with the Police ... and Thursday, March 17 with all the Pantheon us to express both civilly and peacefully, so Gandhi would say, our dissent!
with poor memory in this country must finally abandon the myths of the Risorgimento, before the truth ... if you want to talk about unity and not the lies and fairy tales to De Amicis.
Besides the historical truth, to have a truly united country we need a policy that creates the same opportunities in the North and South, in a word a policy of justice and of economic rebalancing to reduce rather than accentuate the differences, what Germany did to the fall of the Berlin Wall for bringing the content (and quality) of life of those East Germans to the West ... we have some "slight suspicion" that this is not the goal it 'the right of Berlusconi and Bossi Lumbard it' on the left of Emilia Bersani .... In fact, the gap in the last 16 years and 'increased.
When finally a young graduate in Naples or Palermo will have equal merit, equal opportunities to work one of his colleagues in Milan where to go ... in treno da Napoli a Reggio C. ci si impiegherà lo stesso tempo che per andare da Roma a Milano...quando un imprenditore al Sud avrà le stesse possibilità di un suo collega al Nord, le banche gli concederanno prestiti alle stesse condizioni, le infrastrutture ed i servizi, oltre alla criminalità, non lo ostacoleranno...allora sì che possiamo parlare di "unità", fino a quel momento per favore risparmiateci le vostre favolette e le bugie risorgimentali da "fratelli d'Italia".
