We took action and sanctioned the Venetian branch of the Confraternita della Misericordia, an organisation that holds branches all over Italy through out the network called Confederazione italiana delle Misericordie. Misericordia pledges itself of being charitable and merciful for it “helps poor and derelict citizens” but the truth is that this structure is earning huge amounts of money by managing the new concentration camps, the well known detention centres (CPT) where migrants are detained just because they are papersless.
One of the representative of Confraternita italiana della Misericordia is Minister Giovanardi’s twin brother. Giovanardi the reactionary redneck Minister for Parliamentar Relations and for Civil Service...
Misercordia runs many detention centres: the one in Agrigento, in Lampedusa, in Modena (built by building co-operatives linked to Legacoop and from today on it also run the detention centre in Bologna via Mattei.
These contracts directly signed by Home Office are one of the most dreadful examples of the business of sufference and of war against civilians. CPT are an unacceptable shame and the ones that make money out of them are accomplices with the jailors.
As it happens in Iraq, embedded NGOs give their precious help to the lords of war and to their exploitation and death devices.
How can managing detention centres be consistent with the “Gospel”?
Migrant precariat, condemned by brutal laws to a life of pain, needs to be freed of borders, jails, deportations, tortures, racism!
We today appeal to all the ones that reclaim and fight for freedom, that resist against global war to begin campaigning and boycotting by all means possible detention centres managers. Main objectives are: UNMASK war, which governments impose through out detention centres as well; denounce all collaborators; have all businesses drop their shameful contracts.
There are no choices: it’s either WAR or DEMOCRACY!
FOR THE CLOSURE OF ALL DETENTION CENTRES!
