22 May 2019 "They transformed the memory of the judge Falcone into the feast of Santa Rosalia. Instead of the bishops and the thunderbolts that spread incense, tomorrow there will be the Roman ministers, the only ones who will be entitled to speak (with their good live television) and to explain to us how to fight what is ours, that is, they will come from Rome to explain it to us Sicilians, to those who have been skinning the soul for half a century and having their knees wound in an attempt to free themselves from the mafias ". The president of the regional anti-mafia commission, Claudio Fava, writes this in a long post on Facebook, announcing that he will not remember Giovanni Falcone in the Palermo bunker hall tomorrow. "I prefer - he says - to go to Capaci, in the place where everything happened, I prefer to be together with those who do not like masses sung about the dead".

Fava then adds "The lineup of the interventions was elaborated by the employees of the Minister of Education, who finances the feast, so he comes and talks with his government colleagues: the others in the room to applaud, as is done at school with the director. "A grotesque patriotic ceremony. My problem is not that they invite Salvini. My problem is that they ask him to tell us to listen. If I were Giovanni Falcone's sister, I would have asked Salvini to come and be quiet." to take notes. To have the humility, for a day, a single day, to understand that in life there are bigger things than election campaigns and live broadcasts ".


In short, Fava concludes: "If I were the Falcone Foundation I would have invited the gentlemen in the Palermo bunker to listen to the Palermo attorney general, the director of the Impastato center, the president of the La Torre Foundation, the attorney of the republic of Agrigento (the one that Salvini wants to denounce), the mayor of Palermo, the spokesman of the cooperative Placido Rizzotto who has been dealing for 20 years with confiscated assets from the Corleonese, a couple of journalists who write about the mafia every day for a quarter of a century, the president of Libera, that of Addio Pizzo and maybe even myself, to explain to the Roman authorities what we learned about tin antimafias, the unmentionable friends of the Montante knight in Rome and elsewhere, about the throngs of senators, dwarves, false victims and dancers who the Sicilian scene has been agitating for a long time. But that will not be the case. Salvini will come, and he will speak. The others, silent. Patience. I will go to Capaci tomorrow. "
