Serbian Hooligans ? Clear the field of misunderstandings
Accidents caused by elements that display symbols and slogans "ultranationalist Serbs, both in Belgrade on 10 October (demonstration against the" gay pride "held at the same time) last night in Genoa October 12 (in during the match Italy-Serbia, which therefore could not be exercised) contribute to aggravating the already negative image that has been stuck on Serbia and the Serbs in the last 20 years.
Even Senate Speaker Renato Schifani said: "What happened yesterday at the stadium in Genoa (...) shows the worst face of a Europe still too often crossed by the violence of those who reject civility, dignity, respect for the person. " (1) It does not take a particular fancy to associate that "face the worst" for Serbia and the Serbs, thus giving a whole people (ethnicity? Race?) The rejection of superior "civilization" of Schifani. This line arises explicitly Association revanchist Istrian-Dalmatian exiles, the headline of "insanity Serbian and connects the stadium violence to" the hatred of the Balkan matrix "that would have been the victims" of the Italian community "during the anti-Fascist Resistance. (2)
In fact, many in Italy at this time we are satisfied to be connected, in good or bad faith but improperly, the violence of "hooligans" by the alleged cruelty of the Yugoslav partisans, with little word summarized in code " sinkholes. Therefore, before considering the merits of the question, "Serbian hooligans," you must clear the field from the first and most painful mistake: the two arguments - that of "sinkholes" and the "hooligans" - there is no collegamento possibile se non quello dettato dal ben noto sillogismo razzista italiano, per cui slavi = barbari = infoibatori. (3)
Si pone tuttavia certamente la questione di quale significato dare, in termini sociali e politici, a questo fenomeno degli "hooligans serbi". Chi osserva le cose in superficie nota che gli "hooligans" agitano la questione del Kosovo - con striscioni, slogan, e richiami al 1389, anno della battaglia di Campo dei Merli. La questione è tuttavia sollevata in termini meramente "etnici" ("il Kosovo è serbo e non è albanese"), in maniera del tutto incongruente e contraddittoria dal punto di vista storico-politico. Infatti chi abbia voglia di informarsi e conoscere un po' di storia di quella regione find that a completely Albanization Kosovo - as is once again today - the project was made during World War II, right of fascism and Nazism. (4) So from a historical point of view-firm political, raise the issue of Kosovo in Serbia is not without its contradictions to what those who profess to Nazis and Fascists and / or Chetnik.
course, require rigorous ideological and historical and political of the "hooligans" may be a claim too. But the right which is currently in power in Serbia this request should be made, or not?
This is indeed a problem that certainly exists. With the anti-Yugoslav coup, of which just recently celebrated its tenth anniversary, came to power in Serbia is a ruling class not only ultra-liberal and ally of the IMF, NATO and the EU: to take power were also the direct inheritors of that tradition Chetniks oscillating between loyalty to the national integrity and loyalty to their mentors and foreign masters. The attitude of the Chetniks that time is no different from that of the Chetniks today (I mean real ones, the former Minister Vuk Draskovic on, and not the "hooligans"): Today, as then, the collaborators have agreed to the foreign occupier rendering of Yugoslavia and the secession of Montenegro and Kosovo (5) just as he was gloating symbols between reactionary and nostalgic historical revisionism anti-partisan e sciovinismo anti-islamico. (6)
Certamente, negli stadi e nelle piazze l'estremismo teppista trova anche alimento nei settori sociali sconfitti, delusi ed impoveriti dagli eventi balcanici degli ultimi 20 anni - inclusi ovviamente i profughi dallo stesso Kosovo. Ma non ci sembra questa la componente determinante, quanto piuttosto quella costituita dai numerosissimi provocatori infiltrati dai "servizi di sicurezza" che esistono in tutte le tifoserie, calcistiche o meno, e svolgono un ruolo ben preciso e prevedibile. (7)
Quale potrebbe essere la strategia provocatoria in questo caso? Ci sono almeno due funzioni "utili" che questi "hooligans" stanno svolgendo.
Innanzitutto, gli incidenti non sono affatto "Destabilizing" to the Serbian government. Conversely, with them the same question of the Kosovo issue is relegated to "public order" and finally buried - along with the Kosovo Serbs, who are now refugees or prisoners, or in the "Bantustans" in the province.
The only possible destabilization of Genoa that accidents can cause is that the relationship between Berlusconi and Tadic, whose scheduled meeting these days, at a bilateral summit, had already been postponed. But if this is all about, that is, an international strategy (the U.S.) to expel Serbia from the "friendly" countries while continuing to isolate it, then you should also have the courage to speak openly, but in Serbia especially in Italy, where there are not know to do is profess contempt for our neighbors of Yugoslavia - of all nationalities.
