(ANSA) – Padua, May 2 – Five Iranians have been arrested after allegedly posing as police officers in order to rob motorists in northern Italy.
Traffic police in the Veneto region arrested the men Thursday after a high-speed chase, during which an officer was injured. Police said they recovered 10,500 euros and 10,000 Swiss francs, in addition to Albanian driving licences, counterfeit residency permits from Spain and four cars.
Right on schedule according to Stephen Coughlin’s timeline on Muslim Brotherhood/Al-Qaeda plans to move to all out warfare on us by 2016, we are seeing quite an uptick recently on arrests all over the world of muslims planning the usual acts of explosive peace upon us.

BARI, Italy | Tue Apr 30, 2013 2:16pm BST
(Reuters) – Italian police on Tuesday arrested four of six men they suspect are members of an Islamist militant cell which was planning attacks in the United States, Israel and Italy, though no specific targets were named by police.
Whether this man is a convert to Islam or not, this has to be the quote of the year:
“Mr. Alfano said that the shooter, an unemployed 49-year-old man, had intended to commit suicide, but told officers that he was unable to do so because he had run out of bullets.”

One thing is for sure, if he was a Muslim, you will know because the Times will go to great lengths to hide that fact. If he was not, they will exaggerate his affiliations.

A gang of Arabs brutally attacked an American yeshiva student visiting with his family in Venice, Italy, in what local community leaders said was a rare instance of anti-Semitism.
The student was knocked unconscious on Tuesday when he strolled late at night in the center of the city. A band of 15 Arab youth pounced on him, dragged him into a dark corner and pummeled him, using sharp weapons.
The student lost consciousness, and the attackers fled when a passerby spotted them and called police and medics.
The police are investigating, but have but have not caught the attackers.
No idea what this is about yet. But this video is interesting. Thanks Martin

A delegate from the italian Northern League in Milan proposes to keep subway coaches only for italians due to the bad behavior of immigrants
The Northern League delegate Matteo Salvini proposed today to keep some subway coaches in Milan only for italians and women due to what he called “bad behavior of immigrants”.
Salvini had no doubts in linking the rising lack of safety in the streets with the immigration phenomenon, to the point of declaring that “in ten years, natives from milan will be a minority” and they will end up traveling separately in the subway just like crippled and disabled veterans in past times.
“If immigration is not stopped, then we will reach this point”, he assured. Meanwhile, “we ask for one or two coaches to be reserved for women, taking into consideration those hundreds of denounces for aggressions, sexual molestations, insults and bothering comments they have to endure every day”, he specified.

This article translated by Hermes from this original Italian news story
Violence, Islam, contagious diseases… a concentrate of all problems of the multicultural society has emerged in a few days in the refugee camps of Emilia-Romagna (in the region of Bologne) after a horrendous earthquake ravaged northeast Italy. The preferential treatment of immigrant victims added to the sharpening of the situation.
The italian voluntary workers were, in spite of all their good will, simply rolled over by the happenings. Last thursday the Vodafone company wanted to distribute free telephone cards in the camp of San Felice Sul Panaro in the province of Modena. There a scuffle took place between north african immigrants, during which one of them pulled out his knife and stabbed one of his fellow countrymen.
On saturday a big revolt broke out in the same camp as an italian voluntary worker served a muslim girl a dish of spaghetti Bolognese. Those in charge of maintaining the civil order in the camp explained that everything had simply been a mistake: “The worker gave her the wrong meal by mistake.” But the muslim girl began to cry, summoned all her family and incriminated the managers of the camp of having purposefully insulted islam. The help of the plain-clothes security personnel was needed to restore peace.
“We sincerely did not expect to meet such problems when we applied for the job in the camp of Emilia”, some voluntary workers from Trentino explained. Continue Reading →
Italy’s prime minister has not ruled out bringing in the army to deal with the increasing levels of violence across the country.
Prime Minister Mario Monti raised alert levels Sunday at sensitive sites across the country after a rebel group shot and wounded the head of the state-controlled nuclear energy company, Ansaldo Nucleare.
Commenting on the plan, Interior Minister Anna Maria Cancellieri told local journalists “the risk of an escalation of anarchist terrorism is real.”
“The army could be used to guard buildings which could be the target of violent protest,” she added.
That would include offices of the tax collection agency Equita and industrial corporation Finmeccanica, owner of Ansaldo Nucleare.
“The danger of an escalation exists,” she said. “It’s a situation which demands drastic action.”
The Federazione Anarchica Informale (Informed Anarchist Federation), with links to Greek extremist groups, claimed responsibility for the attack on the nuclear company’s head in Genoa on Friday.
Prosecutor Michele Di Lecce said the FAI, which has threatened eight further reprisals to demand the release of anarchists jailed in Greece, “appeared reliable.”
