The organized crime profited from the emergency, and too much media attention was ruining their businessess. Bringing back the attention of the media and the eyes of the world upon the problem is the only way to fight them effectively.<BR/><BR/>From Italy: please, don't forget this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
