¿‘Tatequieto’ a Berlusconi?: El caso Ruby

In recent months the media have noted with particular interest in sex scandal starring the Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. The reason? On April 4 il premier will be put on trial for the crimes of child prostitution and extortion, a situation that the opposition celebrated as the beginning of the end of 'Berlusconi era. "

While not the most resounding international success these days, compared to civil strife in the Middle East for democracy, international public opinion has an eye on this trial for the so-called Caso Ruby. Paradójicamente Berlusconi será interrogado por el ‘bunga bunga’, un ritual erótico creado por Gheddafi, el mandatario de Libia para el disfrute de Berlusconi con la supuesta sobrina de Hosni Mubarak; Todo una sátira de carácter internacional.

Lo cierto es que Ruby Rubacuori, protagonista de este escándalo, es una prostituta de origen marroquí y por supuesto no es la sobrina del ahora ex-mandatario egipcio, Hosni Mubarak. Fue Berlusconi quien se inventó este amañado parentesco de la mujer con Mubarak para facilitar su liberación, cuando en octubre del año pasado fue arrestada por los cargos de hurto. El mandatario italiano, in a sample of abuse of power, immediately telephoned the police to that acquitted of the charges, a situation which naturally attracted the attention of the Italian magistrates, who after investigating found that the woman was actually an underage prostitute and had participated in one of the premier il Bacchanalia, the style of the orgies of the Roman emperors. Berlusconi aware of the situation of Ruby and its legal implications, she wanted to avoid talking to the police and came to his defense to avoid detection, achieving the opposite to elicit media attention to this new scandal.

frequent Berlusconi prostitutes is nothing new, for he has been responsible for building an image as a womanizer and party animal who does not ashamed to publicly. Already in the past had been involved in scandals prostitiucion of those who escaped. Italian public opinion reminds Patrizia D'addario, a prostitute from the city of Bari, who publicly claimed to have spent more nights in il premier company of which they were granted. Prostitution in Italy is not a crime, but the 1958 law prohibits Merlin organize and exercise, and therefore violates the law who will benefit from its use. On that occasion, as Berlusconi's lawyer, Niccolo Ghedini, the president is not the lay infrigió it was not him who paid for the prostitute but a coolaborador him, leaving him free of charge.

serious But Ruby is different from where the prostitute involved was a minor at the time of their meeting, so now il premier is accused of child prostitution and abuse of power in court Milan.Segun of judges, this time seems to have sufficient and valid evidence to accuse Berlusconi.

The famous night of 'bunga bunga', in which a dozen women gave him sexual pleasure to one man's what revolció the nest. Characters of his confidence as Lele Mora, director of TG4 (un noticieron dela propiedad de Berlusconi) y Nicole Minetti, ex show girl y ahora consejera regional en el Piemonte, están implicados también por organizar dicho evento que el propio Berlusconi describió en una entrevista como una ‘velada relajante’. Además de esto, a las mujeres que participaron en dicha bacanal no sólo se les pagó con dinero, sino que se les regaló carros de lujo, joyas y se les dio casas de una sociedad de Berlusconi en comodato.

Desde hace algun tiempo, il cavaliere habia afirmado sentirse perseguido por la justicia italiana ‘en manos de magistrados comunistas´, por lo que señaló que el juicio en su contra no es más que un complot. However, convinced of his innocence hopes to emerge unscathed from the trial to continue his mandate until 2013, while the opposition believes it is preparing with his lawyers to find laws that keep you off of this process. The Italian public opinion has already said before il premier characterized by creating laws at will and benefit to the point of wanting to reform the constitution to change the form of government, transforming it from a democratic republic to a presidential reúublica, which would give greater power in parliament and parliamentary immunity.

But then, where is the opposition that allows these things happen? Unfortunately for the opposition Democratic Party, its main stand, is characterized by being broken into and to be quite heterogeneous, which makes it difficult to reach an agreement.

Yet a man called Nichi Vendola, president of the Puglia region in 2009 and founded a political movement within the Democratic Party, the Ecological Movement Sinistra and Liberty, which has gathered in its ranks Environmentalists Socialists and Social Democrats proposed to create 'a new green and libertarian way to build an alternative to modern capitalism: the left of the new century. " In Italy they see as a possible way of opposition, pero tiene el problema que su movimiento aun no se ha constituido como un verdadero partido politico. Además, la opinión pública no ha escatimado en explotar su orientación sexual (homosexual) como una debilidad. El amplio número de catolicos y homofobicos, preferirían aun apoyar a un hombre como Silvio Berlusconi que hace de las suyas, antes de dar su voto a un homosexual.

Sin embargo, la semana pasada, se eligió a Rosy Bindi una ‘católica extremista que odia el dinero’ como presidenta del Partido Democrático. Fue el propio Nichi Vendola quien además la propuso como posible sucesora en el mandato de italia, para provocar a Berlusconi, aprovechando el exito que tuvo la marcha de mujeres que se desarrolló en Italia el pasado 13 de febrero, en rechazo a las actitudes machistas de il cavaliere.

Según el diario italiano La Repubblica, Bindi es la versión política de la diosa Nemesis, divinidad mitologica griega que castiga a los hombres por su demesura. Los primeros sondeos realizados por el diario La Repubblica registraron un 77% de favorabilidad para su candidatura. No obstante en el interior del partido consideran que su candidatura es aun prematura.Otros dicen que es una politica muy capaz pero que no reune las habilidades suficiente para ejercer el poder, similar a lo que ocurrió con Mockus.

Ahora bien , solo hasta abril de vislumbará Italy's political future, when you know the adjudication Ruby and know the fate of Berlusconi. The opposition hopes that politics take a new direction and maybe this is the opportunity for the left to see for the first time a woman as president of the Italian Council and thus change the political history of Italy in the last few years, used to sex scandals and the figure of woman as an object.
