stop in Afghanistan. Gino Strada, 'Emergency impressed because inconvenient witness
Milan. After three compatriots engaged in the emergency hospital in Lashkar Gah in Afghanistan have been arrested by Afghan intelligence Gino Strada accuses the Karzai government have wanted to hit as Emergency inconvenient witness violations of international law perpetrated by international forces in the region. Fabio Butera service.

Indeed it is not clear what is holding the government to demand the immediate release. The Americans and all governments that cooperate with NATO in Afghanistan they did and would do so without hesitation. We hesitated so ignoble. He even believed that our fellow doctors were really in cahoots with the terrorists as if the story of Emergency not known for many years.

These doctors are risking their lives everyday to save lives, all lives, and perhaps this could be the reason for such obstinacy. Emergency In fact, unlike other humanitarian organizations, makes its voice heard against the horrors and injustices of war, all wars that are downloaded more on the weak population especially children. Read the letter
Gino Strada in ' We take care of everyone, not ever be silent in the face of the horrors of war' .

government after the first faltering attempts to run for cover, seeking guarantees and legal defenses in a country where there is still no law and that everything is done according to the balance of power exercised on the spot. Everyone knows that there the law is a farce. If our so far have not been killed is because Italy is part of the NATO coalition.

But let us be under no illusion that they
someone wants to play strong . That someone is certainly NATO (including Italy), which is behind all this, other than Afghanistan. He wants to eliminate a critical voice against the war and the way it is conducted in that country that carries off the civilian population including children. In part, we have already managed without taking over the hospital's Emergency physicians.

not yet know what will happen again and given the hesitation of the Italian government has undoubtedly generated by its dual role in this game. If, however, the story gets out of hand there could be serious consequences as well as also diplomatic policies. For now we hope at least the salvation of our fellow citizens even if the hospital has unfortunately been lost as well as witnesses of the war, in my opinion to the detriment of local people and the freedom of information.

Gino Strada back to attack the Italian government. "I do not know what 's written in the letter, if' immediate release of our compatriots' or 'Happy Birthday'. I have really no idea," he told the founder of Emergency Affariitaliani.it referring to letter from Silvio Berlusconi the Afghan president, Hamid Karzai.

"I am satisfied-just-add if they are freed. Place. Nothing else interests me. Since this is a stunt to try to discredit the work of Emergency and instead 'recognized by all. It' s a frame which also discredits so shameful Italy. "

"were three U.S. citizens were free-goes-in three minutes. They had been three Germans, French, English or Scandinavian countries were free in four minutes. The Italians instead you can leave them 'for days without even seeing a lawyer. The government has a responsibility to protect their fellow citizens, there is no 'doubt. Or did it or not, and' were allowed the Afghans, but to do this and 'one more reason to make its voice. If security had arrested three Afghan-Americans ends-quarter of an hour later there were one hundred Marines would come and they would be freed. Point. Question resolved in half an hour. "

The premier is mobilized for operators arrested. One of the operators towards the liberation

14-Apr-2010

ROME - A letter of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi will be delivered to the President of Afghanistan Hamid Karzai. The envoy of the Foreign Minister Franco Frattini, Attilio Iannucci, arriving in Kabul, will deliver - Italian diplomatic sources said - a letter of the Italian prime minister, along with a "personal message" from the Minister Frattini. Were not disclosed details of the message.

" swift investigations " - Frattini, however, asked the Afghan government to speed up the investigation. It revealed that one of the three operators of Emergency "could be released if no other evidence." The minister said this during his speech to the House, where went to report to Parliament on each of the three Italian aid workers were arrested Saturday in Lashkar Gah, in Helmand province. "President Berlusconi and I - he said the foreign minister - we have stressed to Afghan authorities as a friendly country that Italy expects the respect of all rights, including the presumption of innocence." Frattini stressed that Italy will move according to two principles: "to protect our fellow countrymen" and "help the country which we are bound by friendship towards stabilization." Frattini has also spared no criticism of Gino Strada, founder of Emergency: To the minister, some statements made "out of this parliament," as those of "Gino Strada, where, in these moments, accusing the United States, NATO and ISAF, "certainly" did not help diplomatic efforts. "

ACCUSATIONS - The foreign minister admitted, however, not be "satisfied with the response we have received so far by the Afghan authorities. The three compatriots, he added, were "aware of charges of possession of explosives and weapons of war" and "be involved in a plot in two phases," which involved the execution of an attack against civilians and in a second phase a suicide bombing against the governor of Helmand province, during a visit organized in the emergency hospital. The three were not still "charged" he said.

PAGANI TO ISSUE - later the director of AIS, Adriano Santini said that the operator of Emergency that may soon go free would Matteo Pagani. According to reports, the allegations against the technical logistics of the hospital in Lashkar Gah were lighter than those on the other two doctors, Matthew and Mark Garay Dall'Aira.

" AND 'HIS DUTY " - Dry Emergency replication message to the news of Mr. Berlusconi: "It is the duty of the head of a government when the leader of an allied government has, what is given to know, so three illegal citizens "said the manager Emergency communication, Maso Notarianni. According to the spokesman, "After the period of unnecessary controversy is right that there are facts that aim to deliver concrete results for three Italian citizens."

the demonstration in Rome - Meanwhile Saturday, the event will be held in Rome in support of Emergency and the release of three players still being held. We have already signed up several members of the CGIL and Pd, as well as Italy of Values. Just DiPietro had attacked the government, "Berlusconi's silence is deafening - the spokesman said of DiPietro, Leoluca Orlando -. Since the three Italian operators of Emergency has been abducted and wrongfully detained without indictment, the prime minister, pledged to make himself look good in front of large, did not say a word in favor of three Italians held illegally. Families are anxious but Berlusconi does not care. Yet they are volunteers who have spent to provide care and medical assistance to the Afghan people, leaving home and family. " On the other hand, pointed out Orlando, "were despicable attacks on Emergency by ministers and leaders of the majority, rather than take action to demand the release of our countrymen, have even suggested a flanking the NGO with the terrorists."

THE LETTER OF GINO STRADA
We take care of everyone, not ever be silent in the face of the horrors of war
April 15, 2010 Dear

Director, place - directly or with the complicity of someone who works there - some weapons in a hospital, then we kick off the operation ... Afghan and British troops surrounding the Surgical Centre Emergency in Lashkargah, guns in hand then you come and go where they know to find the weapons. To our knowledge, no other place is searched. It goes straight into a warehouse, there is no need to monitor hundreds of boxes on the shelves, with the two inside the weapons are ready - but what a surprise! - On the floor in the middle of the room. A camera and you're done. It

arrested three Italians - a surgeon, a nurse and a logistician, the only international conditions at the time in hospital - and six Afghans and they are banging in the cells of the Security Services, whose human rights abuses have been well documented by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. Even

Emergency homes are surrounded and searched. At present five people - including four Italians - is forbidden to leave their homes. The hospital is militarily occupied.

The charges: "They made a plot to assassinate the governor, have even received half a million dollars to carry out the attack." To say this is not a magistrate or the police is simply the spokesman for the governor.

Even a madman could believe such an accusation: and why should they? Most of the rockets and bombs to Lashkar have as their objective the governor's mansion: Who would be so stupid to pay half a million dollars for an attack seen that every day they attempt to do it for free already?

This frame is destined to collapse, despite the complicity of a few mediocre - what a shame for our country! - Trying to keep up with innuendo and slander, with the attempt to discredit Emergency, his work and its staff. Why

attacks, because they declared war on a hospital? Emergency and his hospital are accused of treating even the Taliban, the enemy. But they did not lash out for years, politicians of all colors, that Italy is in Afghanistan for a peacekeeping mission? You may have enemies in the peacekeeping mission?

In any case, the accusation is true. Indeed, we all Emergency we make full confession. A true confession, this, not as "shocking confession" of the staff of Emergency which ended in our national newspaper headlines.

We take care of the Taliban. Sure, and in doing so we are faithful to the ethical principles of the medical profession, and respect treaties and international conventions on assistance to the wounded. We take care of, first, to our moral conscience of human beings who refuse to kill or let die of other human beings. We take care of the Taliban as we care and we take care of the mujaheddin, the Afghan police and soldiers, the Shia and the Sunnis, whites and blacks, males and females. We take care of mainly Afghan civilians who are the vast majority of victims guerra.Curiamo that those in need, and we believe that those in need has a right to be treated.

We believe that even the most cruel terrorists have human rights - those that belong to the mere fact of being born - and that these rights must be respected. Being cared for is a fundamental right, enshrined in the most important documents of social culture, if you want the "Politics", the last century. Emergency And we respect that. We proudly declare "guilty." We handle all
. In Afghanistan we have done it a million times. We have done in the hospital in Lashkar sixty-six thousand times. Without asking, in front of a wounded man in the emergency room, "Stay with Karzai or Mullah Omar? ". Nor we have asked many children we have seen in recent years affected by mines and bombs from rockets and bullets. In 2009, 41 percent of the wounded admitted to the Emergency hospital in Lashkar had less than 14 years. Children . We told stories and showed the faces, the true images of war, its truth.

"Emergency in politics," is the other charge that we individually targeted politicians. In reality only wish that we were silent, that we did not see those faces and tortured bodies. "receivership just do not make policy." Who says it has a very rough idea of \u200b\u200bpolitics.

No, we refuse to be silent and hide those pictures. From time NATO is making what he calls "the most important military campaign in decades: the first victim was the information. There are very few journalists who are informing citizens of the world about what happens in the region of Helmand. The real journalists are uncomfortable, such as the Emergency hospital, which has long been the only "witness" to be able to see western "the horrors of war." We will not stay silent.

Emergency has a high idea of \u200b\u200bpolitics, think like an attempt to find a way to stay together, a community. To find a way to live, all while being different, without killing each other. Emergency is in this attempt. We believe that the use of violence other kinds of violence per se, we believe that only brains can seriously enough to love, desire, celebrating war. We do not believe the war as an instrument, it's horrible, monstrous and stupid to think it will work. Include "the war to end all wars" of U.S. President Wilson? It was 1916. And as you can think of to end the war if we keep them? The last war may be, if anything, an already completed, not a still ongoing.
Emergency response is simple. We learned from Albert Einstein that the war can not embellish, make it less brutal: "The war can not be humane, it can only be abolished." In our idea of \u200b\u200bpolitical and in our consciousness of citizens, there is no room for war. The we have excluded from our mental horizon. We repudiate the war and we would like the abolition, as slavery was abolished.

Utopia? No, we are convinced that the abolition of war is a political project to be implemented, and with great urgency. For this reason we can not remain silent in the face of war, any war. To propose that project, we are guilty.

Here, we have provided the answers. And now? Pistoia called a work of Emergency "olive branch in his mouth and red pepper in the ass." Now it is time that those who "duty" work in that way, and pull out "our boys". It can do so well and quickly. Him remember Saturday afternoon, from two and a half, in Piazza Navona in Rome.
