This was only a giant psychological divertion.
This is the Sun Tzu Low Intensity NOT CONVENTIONAL coupe of Carabineers. Just when they were suspected to make the coupe, they were upgraded and updated, thanks to de Lorenzo. First they fitted in the head of people the threat of conventional coupe, for yers and years, and to make more credible the fable they did many bloody massacres. Now that the danger of a conventional coupe is disappeared, NOW STARTS THE REAL COUPE.
Sun Tzu pretends: first to conquer the headquarter, and then to destroy the army, exactly at the opposite of a conventional a la von Clausewitz attack, where first you destroy the army and then conquer the headquarter. I am not telling crap, just what the 'propaganda' experts of Gladio knew and know well, and everyday apply in the Italian political life (and also in the 'alternative' information system...).
Keep in mind that the friend de Lorenzo, so a FASCIST one, after the fall of Mussolini goverment in 8th September 1943 (another day of virgin Mary), he JOINED THE PARTISAN ANTIFASCIST GUERRILLA, first on the Alps, then in Rome (near his master General Superior).
Best regards from a North Adriatic, Anti-catholic and Anti-islamic isolationist
