surprising as the concept of "people" has topped that of "humanity" and "tolerance", but even sadder is how some events in life such as racism and intolerance are not repeated. The idea of \u200b\u200b"people" who had developed leads to the following question: is it really the best prototype of a people with fundamentalist political ideology?
was the year 1945, the Second World War had come near the end and the eyes of the world powers involved were focused on Germany, but in another part of Europe there was a massacre in progress: thousands of people were tortured and killed in Trieste and Istria by Yugoslav communist partisans of Tito . The victims were mostly Italians, Slovenians and Croats who opposed the communist regime. What was the reason for all this hate? In the 30s he had formed a Croatian nationalist movement that became known as Ustasha, they collaborated with the occupying German troops persecuting especially Tito's partisans and making a real ethnic cleansing against Serbs. These militias were joined Yugoslav Italian Fascists. After War and defeat the German troops the vengeance of the Yugoslav Communist troops was terrible and brief. The victims were reduced to the level of the slaves had to undergo terrible torture, were stripped of their clothes and their dignity and, finally, they were bound to each other through the wire. The captors had fun shooting the first victim of the group tumbled into ruin in foiba pushing him the other in a cavity in the rock and was there awaiting their death.
In this context it should cite the "Cave of Basovizza" originally it was a mine shaft that, in May 1945, became a place of executions for prisoners, originally intended for military and civilian internment camps set up in Slovenia and later executed in Basovizza. The martyrs of the Cave of Basovizza were taken into the homes of Trieste in the forty days of Yugoslav occupation of the city, these groups were bound and driven to the brink of the abyss. A burst of machine gun was all falling into the abyss. Those who survived the death struggle lasting two hundred meters of flight between the spasms of wounds and lacerations caused by spikes of rock. The site
Basovizza, in 1992, was declared by the then President of the Republic Oscar Luigi Scalfaro, a national monument in memory of all victims of the massacres from 1943 until 1945. This story has been obscured and forgotten for too long in Italy and all information and news, a few years ago, was denied and removed from school textbooks.
