An Italian Leader: Berlusconi the Crusader
While US and European leaders are trying to put together a large coalition against the fundamentalist supporters of terrorism, the Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi has caused a diplomatic incident with his declaration on the supremacy of the western civilization. Berlusconi, a media tycoon running Italy since May, is not at his first blunder. Italian voters know his loquacity, but still this didn’t keep them from sending him to government with the elections held in May. Since, Italy’s prime minister, who is also on trial for bribery, has not resolved any of his numerous conflicts of interests, among them his fear of international investigations, which are now necessary to seize the terrorists’ financial resources. Yet, as a traditional friend of Arab nations, Italy could still play an important role in the current diplomatic game due to the presence of the former Afghan king Zahir Shah in Rome.
