Rome, 11 Nov. (LaPresse) – “The strategy is to stir up fear. It’s all too easy; any one of us, with the means and tools at our disposal, could send an email to a school, a nursery or an airline and say ‘there’s a bomb’. It’s part of a strategy that even idiots get caught up in. It’s not always about strategies by foreign countries or hostile acts; there are also pathological liars – madmen who, at a time like this, can’t wait to unleash terror on a city. The police work precisely to distinguish between serious threats and those stemming from mythomaniacs. We’ll be seeing more and more of this, because, unfortunately, ‘the mother of idiots is always pregnant’. This was stated by the Minister of Defence, Guido Crosetto, whilst speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the conference ‘Il Paese che cambia’ (‘The Changing Country’) on bomb threats.
Security, Crosetto: “The strategy is to stir up alarm; there are also idiots and pathological liars”
