Italy is a sovereign nation. This is the greatest illusion upon which our Republic is founded.
For eighty years, we have been told the story of an alliance between equals, of benevolent protection and of a hard-won freedom. In this explosive and documented essay, Luciano Presenti dismantles this narrative piece by piece, demonstrating how, behind the facade, lies a relationship of systematic subordination.
From the military bases that make our peninsula an American aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean, to the secret armies like Gladio ready to intervene against our own democracy. From the "golden leash" of the Marshall Plan, to the modern wars fought with the weapon of tariffs and the bond spread. From the colonization of our dreams through Hollywood, to the impunity guaranteed to those who, on our soil, have killed or kidnapped in the name of the stars-and-stripes' raison d'état.
Italy: A Stars and Stripes Colony is not a history book. It is an indictment. A detailed map of our cage, which forces us to ask the most uncomfortable question of all: are we truly free, or have we simply learned to love our chains?
