What Does A Breast Lump Feel Like

The day of remembrance

On February 10 was the national day of remembrance of victims of sinkholes (introduced by a law of 2004) and Julian-Dalmatian exiles. This law marks a big change of attitude toward the exiles Giuliani, acknowledging the diaspora that took place in Dalmatia, Istria and Rijeka, and their suffering. Many people do not know the story of what happened between 43 and 47 in those lands, and not remember (as has happened in almost every school in Italy) for me is an insult to the memory of those who died in a so bad and suffered unspeakable torture for the simple fact of being Italian (and a threat, in the imagination Tito, the territorial claim, completely legitimate by the way).
who has seen the movie "The Heart in the Well" broadcast on Raiuno last night was able to get a rough idea of \u200b\u200bwhat might have happened in those places. My grandmother is Pazin (Pazin now) and told me many times what happened, what he suffered, what he saw and experienced and are things that we can not even imagine, and no less different from what we know happened in the gulag and concentration camps. You can not understand what it might mean having to endure the German military occupation and then titin, see their relatives, friends, acquaintances killed in the roadside or disappear without knowing anything, be put in prison because the Italians, having to flee the bombing and suffering constantly at his heels with the Yugoslav partisans as a hunted animal. I would not be here if you had not escaped from his land, he loved and still today after more than 60 years of appointing often, just to be Italian. A branch of my family descends from there, in me flows the blood of those lands and those people and I can not feel a part of them. See my grandmother cry every time he hears the laugh!, Or see the symbol of Istria on the Croatian flag, it makes me think about how no one today can know and feel what it really means to be Italian to the point of suffering for the nation as did those 350,000 refugees and those 15,000 deaths. So I think to remember those killings and also give more weight to what happened in schools is a duty, not only by those who, like me, comes and is linked to those lands, but of all, starting with knowing the facts in order to destroy the historical revisionism that comes to Holocaust denial.



PS This post is just a memorial to commemorate what many do not know and ignore, and to encourage everyone to learn more about those events, looking for evidence on the Internet, in documentaries and books (I assure you there). I there I have also directly from those who lived through these events, and I believe that sharing is the first step to ensure that what happened does not happen again.
