Could Eluana’s dream be the last?

Another case of life and death in Italy. A girl has been in a coma during the last 16 years. Her father can’t cope with the pain anymore, he would like her to finally pass away. According to the Italian law, though, this can’t be done in a quick and painless way because she is not technically dead. It’s time for a Biological Testament law to be created in our country.

Save the premier or save everyone?

After an initial period of dialogue between government and opposition, relations have become strained. Walter Veltroni of the Democratic Party (PD) has declared the period of cooperation to be over. Disagreements have broken out over the government’s plan to limit the use of wiretapping which is far more common in Italy than in any other Western country. But the biggest dispute concerns a proposed judicial measure which the centre-left claims is tailored to save Silvio Berlusconi from prosecution.

Ahmadinejad’s ‘Roman Holiday’ ends in failure

Mahmud Ahmadinejad’s visit to the food crisis summit in Rome on June 3 ended in failure as the Iranian president united the entire Italian political class against him. His inflammatory rhetoric found no audience as even the left was appalled by his hysterical anti-Israel outbursts.

Berlusconi’s quest for dialogue

The trust obtained by this new government was not under question and it does not represent big news. The “search for dialogue” (with the rival Veltroni) invoked by Berlusconi is, instead, something new in the scattered panorama of the Italian politics.

Berlusconi’s IV: a brand new government, a brand new country.

Silvio Berlusconi’s fourth government will be put in charge today, at 17:00 o’clock. It was formed quickly, despite the many obstacles represented by Lega Nord’s list of wishes and the requests made by Alleanza Nazionale. Moreover, the Ministry Council will finally see many fresh faces, as there are seven Ministers aged from 31 (!) to 47. No to mention that, of all these promising youngsters, four are females.

Il Cavaliere Rides Again

The center-right coalition of Silvio Berlusconi has won a
massive and perhaps historic victory in Italy’s general election.For politics, the election results mean that Italy is moving toward
a stable two-party system. This is quite a transformation, although
Italian politics was never as chaotic as its reputation suggested.
