Has Operation GLADIO been resurrected?

European anarchists grow more violent, coordinated

ROME – A loosely linked movement of European anarchists who want to bring down state and financial institutions is becoming more violent and coordinated after decades out of the spotlight, and may be responding to social tensions spawned by the continent's financial crisis, security experts say.

Italian police said Tuesday that letter bombs were sent to three embassies in Rome by Italian anarchists in solidarity with jailed Greek anarchists, who had asked their comrades to organize and coordinate a global "revolutionary war."

Alessandro Ceci of the Center of Superior Studies for the Fight Against Terrorism and Political Violence theorized the Italian anarchists may be trying partly to take advantage of the political climate in Italy: Premier Silvio Berlusconi has seen his parliamentary majority fall and just barely survived a no-confidence vote this month. In addition, protests against university budget cuts turned violent on Dec. 14, thanks in part to anarchist infiltration of student demonstrators.

"If I were an Italian (police) investigator, I'd be worried," Ceci said, comparing the highly charged atmosphere to that of the late 1960s, just before the Red Brigades leftist domestic terror group launched into action.

If this clown were a real expert on the subject, he would know that the Red Brigades was a False Flag operation by Right-Wing Reactionaries. Maybe he does know and he's lying through his teeth.

1. False Flag - Black Ops

2. We must have Order.

Where did all these loosely connected 'Anarchists' suddenly acquire explosives and the skills to make bombs, seemingly overnight?

I smell a RAT.

3. Good first call. Terra is springing up all over the globe... very suddenly. nt

5. Italy was a hotbed for GLADIO

and Berlusconi is an old-time P2 Lodge member. He needs a distraction to keep attention away from his political problems.

4. Likely as not. We know that it's been used in the past, over and over. nt

6. Henry Kissinger threatened Aldo Moro for bringing Communists into Italy's government.

4. The Red Brigades

The Red Brigades were a leftist Italian terrorist organization that was formed in 1970. In 1974, Red Brigade founders Renato Curcio and Alberto Franceschini were arrested. Alberto Franceschini later accused a top member of the Red Brigades, Mario Moretti, of turning them in, and that both Moretti and another leading Red Brigade member, Giovanni Senzani, were spies for the Italian and US secret services.<11> Moretti rose up through the ranks of the Red Brigades as a result of the arrest of the two founders.

The Red Brigades and the CIA

The Red Brigades worked closely with the Hyperion Language School in Paris, which was founded by Corrado Simioni, Duccio Berio and Mario Moretti. Corrado Simoni had worked for the CIA at Radio Free Europe, Duccio Berio had been supplying the Italian SID with information of leftist groups and Mario Moretti, apart from being accused by the Red Brigades founders as being an intelligence asset, also happened to be the mastermind and murderer of former Italian Prime Minister, Aldo Moro. An Italian police report referred to the Hyperion Language School as "the most important CIA office in Europe."<12>

5. The Murder of Aldo Moro

Moro Makes Powerful Enemies

Aldo Moro, who served as Italy's Prime Minister from 1963 until 1968 and later, from 1973 until 1976, was kidnapped and murdered by the Red Brigades in 1978, while still a prominent politician in the Christian Democrat Party. When he was kidnapped, Moro was on his way to Parliament to vote on inaugurating a new government, of which he negotiated, for the first time since 1947, to be backed by the Italian Communist Party (PCI). Moro's policy of working with and bringing the Communists into the government was denounced by both the USSR and the United States.

Kissinger's Threat

Moro was held for 55 days before his eventual murder. The reasoning was for his plan to bring the Communist Party into the government. Four years prior to his death, in 1974, Moro was on a visit as Italian Prime Minister, to the United States. While there, he met with US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who told Moro, "..You must abandon your policy of bringing all the political forces in your country into direct collaboration... or you will pay dearly for it."<13>

Interesting times is right.

7. Any 'Group' is likely infiltrated.

and the member of a group making the most noise is likely to be an agent provocateur.

Stirring up trouble to justify repression.
