I don't have time to collect the sofas from private clubs, placed in the middle of the trenches of the tanks, which already have to dismantle everything. The environmental parade, with electric traction, complete with overturned SUVs and festival pastries for a select few, is already over. The Extreme Elettric ship, already yesterday, was in the harbor, in Porto Pino, to load crews and engines. The most risky military marketing operation ended last night when the sunset fell on the proscenium of Teulada. Stars and SUVs, after ten days of preparations and two of races, have lowered the curtain of the world motor show. An event that descended on Sardinian land like a thousand and one nights jubilation in the forbidden enclave of Capo Teulada, which has always been the most bombed land and sea strip in Europe.
The world disaster
The images of the environmental destruction carried out by half-century bombings have gone around the world, a disaster passed off as degradation linked to climate change, in a land marked by indelible wounds framed without details by the drone and by the cameras placed on the ground level. It is that aerial ensemble that gave the idea of how damaging the environmental attack was in those 7,200 hectares prohibited by barbed wire and armed surveillance. A piece of Sardinia mugged and raped is now shown to the whole world as a setting for extreme sports and fashion shows. Who knows if those 75 troupes from Mediaset, Fox Sports in the United States, ITV, Sky Sports, BBC and BT Sport digital channels in the United Kingdom, Teledeporte in Spain, Prosieben MAXX in Germany, and Eurosport will be invited to stay inside the shooting range again tomorrow, in that lodge set up to prohibit anyone from going beyond the images of the private circuit. The cards speak for themselves. The military requirements, in that of Teulada, exist only to prohibit the Sardinians from that hinterland and that sea. The orders issued by the Port Authority of Cagliari are the queen proof of how much the Ministry of Defense is much more sensitive to image shows, rather than to the legitimate requests for transparency and free access by the people of Sardinia to those beaches and lands. .
The cards nail
The ordinance number 176 of last October 8th when the Commander of the Maritime District took note of the cancellation of all military exercises in Capo Teulada is not otherwise explained. Everything was already planned, since last September 27, with the absolute prohibition to pass even away from the Charlie 311 area of Teulada. Then, out of the blue, on 6 October the Serenissima Lagunari Regiment, with a military phonogram, announced the cancellation of all the fire exercises scheduled for 8 to 29 October 2021. To renounce the war games in Sardinia, however, it was not only the amphibious vehicles of the Serenissima.
Ferragostano Ministry
With a new ordinance, 177, the Commander of the Port of Cagliari had to take note of the renunciation of none other than the 1st San Marco Regiment. This time the message arrives at Molo Ichnusa two days after mid-August, as if the Ministry of Defense were anxious for the landing of the SUVs in the polygon under investigation for environmental disaster. The exercises in this case too are canceled without any stated reason. The prohibitions that from 12 to 22 October, from 8 to 20, had been affixed to the whole area are canceled with a swipe of the sponge.
Court of Auditors
No justification, not even to the Court of Auditors, given the financial expenditure of two military missions suddenly canceled, complete with a ship sent to Sardinia for the occasion, the Capucine, flying the Maltese flag, to unload howitzers and tanks of all kinds . For weeks it had been moored in the port of Sant'Antioco waiting for the SUVs to do their show. So much is paid by the state. And finally, the twist. When the electric motors of Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg's SUVs are still in action in the prohibited trenches of the tanks, the well-served of the Ministry of Defense arrives: starting tomorrow, Monday 25 October, shooting will resume. There, in the same places where sofas and sofas have cheered a select few in a sports parade prohibited to all others. The military fireworks, so to speak, will greet this facade brackets with bombings and so on, given that the ecological games in favor of the camera are over.
Everyone out, party over
Everyone out, as if until today he had joked. From tomorrow, the ordinance states, "for reasons of navigation safety and safeguarding human life at sea as well as for the protection of public safety, the territorial waters included in the maritime district of Cagliari are declared dangerous for" exercises "". From 25 to 28 October the transit, stopping, navigation, anchoring and landing of any type of naval unit, including pleasure boats, as well as diving, bathing, fishing and related professions are prohibited. access to the maritime state property areas on the coast. The party is over.
The ecological tale
The tale of ecological sport in the land of bombs and missiles has dissolved like snow in the sun. The goal of hiding the reality of a land that has always been stolen from Sardinia, passed off as untouched and uncontaminated, affected by climate change rather than by the thorium of the Milan missiles, has hit the mark, just for 48 hours of lavish deployment of public funds and private, functional only to hide the disaster exposed by the Public Prosecutor of Cagliari and sent for trial by the Judges of the Court. An event that boasted a tourism promotion for a territory that has always been banned by ordinances and armed barbed wire. An inaccessible and disfigured place like few others, transformed into an event only for the use and consumption of a select few.
Promotion of prohibitions
The African lodges placed in the heart of the polygon, complete with tanning sofas and armchairs, cocktails and delicacies, saw the parade of VIPs and palace infiltrators. For the rest, no one else could enter, access was prohibited even at the time of the SUVs. Sardinia is confirmed as the only island where tourism is promoted for a polluted and forbidden area. From tomorrow missiles and bombs. Warn the tourists that the games are over, in Teulada there is no more scrubbing. From eight o'clock tomorrow morning it is also forbidden to approach, the war regiments of San Marco and the Serenissima arrive. In the face of ecological SUVs.
