The leftists have to resort to demonizations and violence simply because they can't win any arguments in fair fights.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has been hammered (by a trivet of a camera) between the right ear and the neck, suffering a small haematoma. The aggressor, Roberto Del Bosco, who lives in Mantova (a "leftist" small town in Italy), is now under interrogation by the Digos (Police). The aggression has been stigmatized from exponents of the Cdl (Coalition of center-right) and some member of the Left. This is a result of a campaign of hatred against the premier, promnoted by the left. DEVELOPING...

How gentle are the Digos when interrogating scum?
another leftist peace activist who loves peace so much that he will resort to violence to get it......like so many moonbats over here...."give me peace or I will kill you".. kind of inane........
trivet=tripod
haematoma
n : a localized swelling filled with blood
Maybe it was a critical comment about Berlusconi's new hair transplant...
Less gentle than we are.
MORE gentle than we should be.
;-)
IMHO
A lump on the head....LOL!
Democracy - especially in hot blooded Italy - is messy.
Those peace loving liberals....if they can't convince you with their "Howard Dean Screams" then they pummel you with their tripods.
aka: bruise
The leftists have to resort to demonizations and violence simply because they can't win any arguments in fair fights.
That doesn't sound bad...unless it's a brain haematoma.
Let them. Let the left expose their true nature. The american public needs to be reminded about the evils of communism. They need an education about what some of them have been asking for.
Something tells me that the Digos aren't being a soft-sell on this one.

Italy's Berlusconi Slightly Hurt in Tripod Attack
Fri Dec 31, 2004 02:55 PM ETROME (Reuters) - Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi was slightly injured Friday when a tourist threw a camera tripod at him in a packed Rome square, an official from the prime minister's party said.
Berlusconi was hit behind the ear by the tripod during an impromptu walkabout in Piazza Navona shortly after sunset. The official said Berlusconi was bruised in the attack and had seen a doctor as a precautionary measure.
ANSA news agency said the assailant was a 28-year old bricklayer from northern Italy who was in Rome for the New Year holiday. He was seized immediately after the assault.
"I did it because I hate him," ANSA quoted the man as telling police. "I certainly didn't plan this, but when I saw him there greeting the crowds, I couldn't stop myself," he added.
Berlusconi's spokesman Paolo Bonaiuti said: "The prime minister is saddened, deeply saddened."
A spokesman for Berlusconi's Forza Italia (Go Italy) party said center-left opposition parties bore some responsibility for the attack for having created an atmosphere of hate in Italy.
"This is the predictable fruit of a certain culture whereby ... politicians systematically incite hatred," Sandro Bondi said.
Berlusconi, a billionaire businessman, regularly goes for unannounced walkabouts in central Rome and often stops for an ice cream in a Piazza Navona cafe.
