It really is criminal how much preferential treatment lott is getting both now and under the previous administration. This alone should be grounds for an investigation into the site

Big domino tile: Silvio Berlusconi becomes prime minister of Italy in 1994


Silvio is also tied to the P2 lodge, right?

Usually one doesn't have to go very deep into secret societies and political ties before landing on the actual and often-memed-about Freemasons. This variant of the story ties nicely with Gladio, Italian intelligence and secret services, politics, far right groups and mysterious deaths in the 70s and 80s. Oh, and of course Silvio Berlusconi.

P2 is the Italian version of the 9/11 conspiracy theories. Not saying it's bollocks, just wanting to point out how widespread it is in Italy, but I don't think it's very well known outside of it.


Well, Licio Gelli (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licio_Gelli) is not just a "theory".

Then, one can theorize whether there is more about P2 than it has been said or not, especially when it comes to well known politician names, but I wouldn't rule it out as a conspiracy theory: there were official prosecutions, a special commission (whose words incidentally say clearly "[P2] cannot be considered as just another political scandal. This is way different." (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commissione_P2)) and special laws that were written/changed for this precise reason.

Then of course when "freemasons" are named, people imagination roams wild, but it was "something" not just pure fantasy/speculation.
