Franco Fracassi

interesting book, with interviews around the world in the first half, and an in-depth discussion of the role of black bloc members at the G8 in Genoa, with information that I haven't yet seen elsewhere, with commentary from social and military analysts.

my take? the cannon fodder of the XXI century, with a distorted perspective of the side-effects of their activities (at best)

exactly like the extreme left activists preaching wreaking havoc that I met in the late 1970s as a teenager: their show more "actions" produced the opposite effect of their stated aims
