...delved into it over the years, the scheme was chronicled in some 200 articles that appeared in a small daily, La Tribuna, in the city of Treviso. One disgusted oilman in Rome also claims that "everyone in the industry knew for years." But no national disclosures were made until Giorgio Pisano, a senator in the neofascist Italian Social Movement (MSI) recently reeled off a series of charges on the senate floor...
March 28 was formed last spring by six young would-be terrorists who wanted to join the Red Brigades. So the Brigades gave them an initiation test: silence Tobagi. Mission accomplished, they were evidently given a second assignment: kill Giorgio Bocca, a special correspondent for Rome's daily La Repubblica and a columnist for the weekly Italian newsmagazine L'Espresso.

One story went so far as to suggest he had shed his thrift shop threads for Giorgio Armani suits and a clean-shaven, manicured Continental haute couture. Sitting in one of Herb Cohen's small offices and backdropped by a fountain and Spanish courtyard, Waits needn't have inquired "Giorgio who?" to debunk that fiction. One look was enough: pointed black shoes (leather cracked), tight, wrinkled straight black pants, a haphazardly-buttoned off-white white shirt, his goatee more under...
