Vannacci’s war on the world in reverse as seen by the newspapers

Vannacci's war on the world in reverse as seen by the newspapers

What they write and what they don't write the newspapers of the "World upside down" written by General Vannacci. Damato's Scratches

Since August hasn't passed yet, we still have about ten days to reserve surprises for ourselves, so let's try to exploit all its potential or discover its mysteries well. But this general Roberto Vannacci, former head of the Folgore, just removed from command even of the Military Geographical Institute of Florence for having written and published with Amazon without the due but impossible permissions – with the at least cultural air that blows in Italy – a offensive book for gays and, more generally, for "the world upside down" shouted in the title, to whom is it politically chargeable, attributable and whatnot? The answer can be found on the front page of La Stampa with many thanks to "Lorenzo D'Agostino, collaborator, among others, of Libè , Der Spiegel , Cnn ", who "tracked down a book by Giorgia Meloni in comparison with which General Vannacci he is a sincere democrat.”

The general, suitably mocked of course by Riccardo Mannelli in the cartoon of the day in the Fatto Quotidiano , is therefore the miraculous son of the even younger prime minister. And somehow it bears the blame. After all, even the good Aldo Grasso on the first Sunday page of the Corriere della Sera , under a headline on the "general of the lost battle", wrote that "perhaps" Vannacci "evaluated the political change in the country", which took place precisely with the first woman, and right-wing, who arrived at the helm of the government, "like an ideological pass". He hadn't foreseen, poor fellow, that a defense minister of the same political color as the prime minister could have removed him for "raving" and "denying him any endorsement, for now". I repeat: “for now”. There is no certainty about tomorrow, said Lorenzo dei Medici, the Magnificent, in his distant times.

Moreover, according to Grasso, the looming shadow of Donald Trump over the White House could also damnably play in favor of “a general who always has his soldiers and his baggage train”. Or even – I add – Putin on Europe if he were to win the war against Ukraine that began last year also to free it, with the preventive blessing of the Patriarch of Moscow, of all homosexuals and the like who would populate it by making their land akin to a vicious and foolish West.

It seems to understand that, naive or unfortunate like any loser general, Vannacci cannot realize the mess he has gotten himself into with his book, for how much money he can get him the publicity launch his critics or enemies are providing, to stay on the military plan. However, he can console him with the more or less merciful silence reserved for him on their front pages by Osservatore Romano , abroad, which has its weight regardless of the famous armies of which Joseph Stalin skeptically asked during his lifetime, and L'Identità in Italy: a newspaper with dignity, indeed brilliantly directed by a homosexual like Tommaso Cerno.
