Italy increased security Thursday at 14,000 sites, and assigned bodyguards to protect 550 individuals after a nuclear energy company official was shot and letter bombs directed to the tax collection agency.

Under the enhanced measures, Interior Minister Anna Maria Cancellieri deployed 20,000 law enforcement officers to protect individuals and sensitive sites. In addition, 4,200 military personnel already assigned throughout Italy will be redeployed according to new priorities.

    Nobody deploys 24,200 cops and troops to deal with one nut jobbie. I must conclude that Italy is on the verge of collapse and considering that rank and file Italians don’t tend to handle such government created chaos peacefully, me thinks it wont be long before all of Italy will be seized with violent protests.
