Andy, Varn, and Alex of Antipolitika Journal read and discuss Gianfranco Sanguinetti's 1979 text "On Terrorism and the State."

A follow-up on his "Truthful Report on the Last Chances to Save Capitalism in Italy" hoax from a few years earlier, the text accuses the Italian State of arranging the kidnapping and murder of Aldo Moro, and being behind all acts of terrorism as a short-sighted strategy of defense. The piece also condemns leftwing arm struggle as reproducing the Spectacle, ultimately proposing its own vision of proletarian insurrection.

In the fun half we judge this thesis in the context of the post 9/11 security state, with a final autobiographical note saying farewell to Sanguinetti, who passed away in Prague as we were planning this episode.
