Bertolaso \u200b\u200b- Man of Opus Dei by www.lavocedellevoci.it
Rita Pennarola
Behind facts, misdeeds and leaders of big business emergency , by Madeleine L'Aquila, via the World Swimming Championships and the waste of Naples, peep behind the scenes that inevitably bring into the austere rooms of Opus Dei. A cominciare proprio dallo stesso sottosegretario, fino ai Gentiluomini di Sua Santita' Gianni Letta ed Angelo Balducci. In esclusiva, ecco tutti i nomi.
Bertolaso, la mano de Dios. Parafrasando il celebre film su Maradona, raccontiamo qui le potenti protezioni di un uomo che davvero - e non per meriti sportivi - si muove da sempre a un passo da Dio. Anzi, a un passo dall'Opus Dei, stella polare della folgorante carriera di Guido Bertolaso, quell'altisonante dietro le quinte finora trapelato solo di striscio ma che adesso, alla luce dell'inchiesta giudiziaria di Firenze, la Voce porta sotto i riflettori in tutta la sua manifesta influenza. Si', perche' la maggior parte dei protagonisti del gigantesco, illecito meccanismo described by the investigating magistrate Rosario fiorentino Wolf 126 pages in the order for custody, invariably bring us back over the Tiber and, in particular, in the austere palaces of Parioli which houses the most 'sectarian factions of the Catholic nuns: the Opus Dei Prelature .
will now review, one by one, the characters in the scent of Opus involved in the investigation of Florence and some of their "patron saints" who are representatives of government of the country.
BERTOLASO - Let's start from him, the super-secretary and leader of the Civil Protection Department. A decision maker pushed the man into whose hands the command of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi had given the sum of powers works billions of € designed to transform the face of the country. And without any supervision.
Capable, sailed long enough missions abroad more than a decade, Guido Bertolaso \u200b\u200bsince the beginning of his career but could 'count on a credential all about: the close connection with the breastplate of faith founded by St. Josemaria Escriva' de Balaguer that knows how to open every door and, above all, guarantees the absolute "reliability '" of his men than in pre-established lines. Almost always somewhere else. The approach of the young Guido
all'Ovra - contrary to legend - do not start with the "call" on the side of Giulio Andreotti in the '80s, but rather 'long before. Just consider the family background of the brilliant and ambitious doctor, who are still deeply rooted in that area of \u200b\u200bthe Veneto white straddling the provinces of Verona and Vicenza. And e 'in Verona, precisely Cazzano of Tramigna, 1400 anime little more', which in the postwar Bertolaso \u200b\u200bare already 'a prominent family. Once in the century in the area of \u200b\u200bthe mills to establish a factory, the grandparents of the Secretary raise four sons: the eldest son, George (father of the Secretary) who will become 'Air Force General, Francis, who will be' mayor of the small common in the sixties, and then Luciano and Stanislaus, both in country remembered for his brilliant achievements in cycling. While the branch that is headed by George (who died last ninety years), it was soon moved to Rome, Veneto remained in the other, an important nucleus of the Dynasty: the one that gave birth to two current members of Opus Dei, both upgraded to official positions of all relief.
The first and 'Marta Bertolaso, young and already' known biologist, currently a researcher at the Biomedical Campus of Rome (universita'-giant Opus in Italy), as well as' at the Fondazione Rui (rib from other sales in the billions), and especially , mentioned since '99 board member of the Italian Delegation by decree of the Prelate of Opus Dei. In 2002, it is up to Bertolaso \u200b\u200bEmmanuel, who moved to Vienna, which is convened in October office of member of the Regional Council for Austria. The same
Bertolaso, moreover, has never failed to make, albeit discretely and without much publicity ', his secret police presence at his side. On 25 July last year, will officially open the proceedings of the Summer School organized by the Fondazione Rui in L'Aquila, attended by among others Sartea and Claudio Andre's Juan Mercado of the Pontificia Universita 'della Santa Croce and the banker Ettore Gotti Tedeschi. In November we find him as a guest star, always at the Fondazione Rui, to explain to the students of the exclusive residence in Rome (with branches between e'lites students from around the world) "the secret of his professional commitment within the Civil Protection. "
BERLUSCONI - Now that the relationship between the Secretary and Opus takes less clearly 'defined, we pass to the other "very religious" great directors of the agreements on finite maxi-emergency works to the attention of three prosecutors (in addition to Florence, investigate it even Rome and Perugia).
To begin with, of course, Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. The colleges to which of his acquaintances Opus since the "tender" age 'has never made any secret. It was the residence Torrescalla, Milan headquarters of the Fondazione Rui, who was born on the association of iron with Marcello Dell'Utri and another supreme summit of Opus, that reverend father Mariano Fazio in 2002 and 'rector Magnificent of the Pontifical Universita 'della Santa Croce. No less well-known and 'then the link between Berlusconi and Don Luigi Savoy', the father of another master's in health battleship odor of sanctity 'capable of producing every year a billion euro, the network of private nursing homes San Raffaele. Although separated from the administrative point of view from the turnover opusdeista, clinics and the adjoining San Raffaele University 'will apply a constant collaboration with leading symbols of the apparatus of Saint Josemaria, as shown, to give just one example The regular presence at the San Raffaele as a numerary professor (and member of PD, now UDC) Paola Binetti, a professor at the Biomedical Campus.
bed - and not 'no accident that the morning of 11 March 2008. the inauguration of the new home of the University 'Campus Biomedical Trigoria, near Rome, had gathered together Javier Echevarría, the Prelate of Opus Dei, the Vatican Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone, the then President of the Region, the "pious" Piero Marrazzo, and Gianni Letta, the latter came to the ceremony not only for its institutional offices in the executive Berlusconi. Read it sits in the advisory board of the Campus, along with Opus official spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls, and Mr. Pellegrino Capaldo Banca di Roma. And 'he read, if that calls for' Bertolaso \u200b\u200bafter the formation of policy on the ground that the young doctor had matured the school of Giulio Andreotti (more devout - and overt - militant Opus Dei).
Ne 'is frequently dealt with trivial. Just consider that read - among the first to defend a sword Bertolaso \u200b\u200bafter the whirlwind of legal meta 'in February - and' now the exclusive club of Gentleman of His Holiness', an offshoot of the small secular papal entourage at the Vatican. His investiture was commissioned in 2007 by Benedict XVI himself with, among others, to that of Leopoldo Torlonia, president of the even more 'aristocratic Circolo San Pietro. Chaplain of the Club (ie the highest authority 'provided religious organization chart) and' then the 'Bishop Franco Camaldo Rev.mo Ill.mo and "man always very close to Joseph Ratzinger. The name of Bishop
Camaldo was bounced to the investigation conducted by prosecutor John Woodcock of power on international trafficking in Masonic matrix which involved, among others, Vittorio Emanuele di Savoia. The story - that somehow, as we shall see, brings us back to Florence in the investigation on the G8 - and 'was mentioned in the book "The Jenkins case," Aliberti Editore, written by Gioacchino Genchi Montolli with Edward. The reference 'to the disciplinary proceedings, which ended with a measure of censorship, conducted by CSM against Vincenzo Barbieri, the current chief prosecutor of Avezzano, in the years when he was general manager of Arenula with Keeper Clemente Mastella. "Barbieri - Jenkins writes - and 'was brought up by Woodcock in a bad history of Freemasonry, yet another on suspicion of aiding and abetting against a prelate in the Vatican on which power is investigated: monsingor Camaldo Francis."
Both the position as that of Bishop Barbieri Camaldo were then filed by the investigating judge of power. But where are the intercepts along with Barbieri confided to a friend: 'Achille Toro, the deputy prosecutor of Rome suspect in the investigation that has engulfed this Bertolaso \u200b\u200band resigned in recent weeks by the magistracy.
BALDUCCI - The proximity to the upper echelons of the Vatican Angelo Balducci, president of the Higher Council of lavori pubblici arrestato nell'ambito dell'inchiesta di Firenze, e' fuori discussione. Non altrettanto nota, forse, e' la rete di protezioni di cui ha potuto godere nelle altolocate gerarchie dell'Opus Dei. Se infatti, all'indomani della bufera giudiziaria, venne subito alla luce la presenza di Angelo Balducci - al pari di Gianni Letta - fra i Gentiluomini di Sua Santita', piu' in sordina arrivano invece le notizie sulla lunga collaborazione, avviata fin dai maxi appalti per il Giubileo del 2000, fra l'ingegner Balducci, Guido Bertolaso e l'allora presidente del comitato organizzatore dell'Anno santo, il cardinale Crescenzio Sepe. Prefetto della “Propaganda Fide”, di cui Balducci diventa “consultore”, Sepe e' fra the cardinals' close to the Prelature. So much so that his prayers and meditations are regularly reported in sites inspired by the work of St. Josemaria.
MASI - Capri is not 'only the name of Rai fiction for more Desperate Housewives' popular at the time, but also the location preferred by the men of "great works clique" X-rayed by the public prosecutor of Florence. In September 2008, "for the transfer of Angelo Balducci from Rome to Palermo with stops in Capri" is hired "a seaplane
for two people at a cost of 3,800 € more 'taxes." A charge of course he thought Diego Anemone, the thirty-nine Roman builder who had monopolized the most 'large share of contracts for the "great events". Obvious why 'when in June 2009 Professor Mauro Masi, director general of state television, telephones with Anemone to solicit the employment by the Salaria Sport Village of young Anacapri Anthony Smit, already' agreed with Balducci, Diego Anemone shots at attention . A few weeks later the boy, Masi brother's girlfriend Susanna Smit, will be 'taken with a pair of anticipated salary and an apartment for rent throughout the capital itself'.
But behind the involvement of Masi (but that 'not investigated) in the investigation of Florence could not check the hand of Mother Opus. And 'in fact, a surprise appointment in November 2009, commissioned by DG Masi, thirty-two of the rampant Sanremo Mark Simeon Summit institutional and international relations office of the RAI. Masi challenging job that requires you to vote against the president Paul Garimberti and half board. The child prodigy
Simeon comes from that fertile humus of Liguria that feeds on the assiduous care of Claudio Scajola and Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco. The young man displays and denies being part of the cash or supernumerary of Opus Dei (lists, however, still covered by strict secrecy), but there are many circumstances that lead back to bullying his name to the rooms of the Prelature. One above all: since 2006 Mark Simeon, even thirty years old, already was sitting 'at the top of the Foundation Carige (Cassa di Risparmio di Genova and Imperia), and not alone. Perche' appena un gradino piu' sopra c'era anche Vincenzo Lorenzelli, docente di chimica nonche' magnifico rettore del Campus Biomedico dell'Opus Dei. Del resto, la Fondazione Rui da molti anni riceve regolarmente finanziamenti dalla Carige. E Lorenzelli a inizio 2010 spicca il volo - fra mille polemiche - anche in vetta al piu' importante presidio ospedaliero ligure, il Gaslini di Genova, del quale era stato nominato gia' nel 2005 commissario straordinario dal cardinale Tarcisio Bertone. Tutto in casa.
E che la longa manus dell'Ovra sia tutt'altro che estranea alle pedine da muovere sullo scacchiere della Rai non lo dimostra solo l'esempio Masi-Simeon. Se infatti a Viale Mazzini i seguaci del Santo possono contare su un direttore generale tanto religioso, Naples sleep even more 'quiet. By the time - and are now almost ten years - at the helm of the TGR Fuorigrotta sits Massimo Milone, another personality 'has always been very close to the local Curia, careful attention to the activities' of the IPE, the educational institution for young men and women of families well managed by the local branch of Opus Dei. Out of the question, finally, the role of Angela Buttiglione, director general of RAI Corporation as well as 'sister of the philosopher Rocco Buttiglione of the UDC and that Opus Dei' home. Always.
