Hi, coupple of things to note:

First: Italian counter terrorist is one of the best in the world because at some point we had terrorist attacks from the inside, also, our mafia/ndrangheta/camorra have deep root in the population and in the government.

Second: il fatto quotidiano is quite a bad source for impartial information very often. I’d say to compare the same articles with other sources.

Bonus: I don’t want to defend the government (it’s quite bad) or the police (could always be better).

The thing that preoccupy me the most is how much my privacy was invaded to discover this terrorists.

Don’t know honestly how realistically can take those charges, I of course do hope the were well founded and that counter-terrorism has done just an outstanding job, but what to do with such hope realistically? Just to give foreigners readers some context since the current totally not neofascist government was elected:
