La giustizia negata per la morte di Pinelli e per le vittime della strage. Il ruolo del giudice Guido Salvini e l'indagine che non può finire. Anzi, sta per entrare nel vivo.

La prima pista è quella rossa. La sera del 12 dicembre 1969 la polizia inizia a rastrellare decine di militanti di sinistra, soprattutto anarchici. Sei di loro – per la verità – sono già in prigione da alcuni mesi: li si accusa di aver compiuto una serie di attentati tra la primavera e l'estate del 1969. Gli inquirenti li stanno torchiando duramente, mentre i giornali annunciano senza esitazioni: il mostro ha già un nome.

12 dicembre 1969, Milano. Sono le 16:37 quando un giovane impiegato venuto dal Sud si avvicina alla grande vetrata che dà sul grande salone della banca dove lavora, la Banca Nazionale dell'Agricoltura (BNA) di piazza Fontana. La sua vita e la storia di questo Paese stanno per cambiare per sempre. Lì sotto, nell'emiciclo, una bomba esplode uccidendo 17 persone e ferendone 88. È la più grande strage europea dal 1945.

Israel's genocide in Palestine and the complicity of powerful Western states is undermining international human rights and the UN system. The United States has imposed sanctions on lawyers, UN experts, and Palestinian officials in an attempt to bully and intimidate them into silence.

Despite over a hundred deadly acts by far-right militants since the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, and the far right's attempts to obstruct transfer of power to a duly elected president on January 6, the FBI continues to deprioritize investigations into white supremacist violence, instead targeting marginalized groups.

A damning account of how Israel and the US manufactured the case for genocide in Gaza and a devastating regional war in the Middle East, from Tel Aviv to Tehran.

In December 1937, in the capital of China, one of the most brutal massacres in the long annals of wartime barbarity occurred. The Japanese army swept into the ancient city of Nanking and within weeks not only looted and burned the defenseless city but systematically raped, tortured and murdered more than 300,000 Chinese civilians. Amazingly, the story of this atrocity- one of the worst in world history- continues to be denied by the Japanese government.
