 Carlo Giuliani
What is happening regarding Carlo Giuliani is an obvious insult to the truth and to reason which is uncannily similar to the "active loss of consciousness" which allegedly induced the anarchist Pinelli to fall out of the window of the local police headquarters in Milan in 1969.
This text is an attempt to shed light on the events which occurred in piazza Alimonda, in Genoa, during the counter-summit and demonstrations against the G8 summit on the 20th of July 2001, and which culminated in the death of Carlo Giuliani.
I also believe, on the basis of the material I have seen and analysed, that Carlo Giuliani threw the fire extinguisher in legitimate defence against the "serious and imminent" danger represented by the pistol aimed from the Defender jeep and that whoever killed Giuliani committed a murderous act.
