After the words on the attack in via Rasella («The partisans killed retired musicians, not the Nazis») the president of the Senate Ignazio La Russa causes discussion again.
"In the Constitution there is no reference to anti-fascism ", the second office of state told La Repubblica with conviction, just a few days before April 25th. A day in which «I will do something that will make everyone agree», namely a visit to the Theresienstadt concentration camp (Prague) , because he «fully shares the values of the Resistance, seen as overcoming a dictatorship. The problem is that the PCI and then the left appropriated those values. This is a historical fact. And I've always opposed that."
"Whatever is said or done is exploited - he added - And we always end up forced to pursue the controversy".
And in fact a rain of controversy has poured over him between those who invite him to review history and those who accuse him of not knowing our Constitutional Charter, given that the 12th transitional and final provision clearly states that " the reorganization is prohibited, under any form, of the dissolved fascist party ".
La Russa "said that anti-fascism is not in the Constitution, we say that anti-fascism is our Constitution," commented Pd secretary Elly Schlein on the sidelines of the secretariat underway in Riano (Rome). «To clarify his ideas, I advise La Russa to read the interventions of the deputies of the Constituent Assembly. No more revisionisms!», the words of Laura Boldrini, deputy of the Democratic Party.
"The word anti-fascist, the president of the Senate Ignazio La Russa is right, is not in the Constitution, which however speaks of anti-fascism in all its forms", defended it instead the leader in the Senate of Forza Italia Licia Ronzulli.
