[edit] So what actually happened?

I can't help but notice this article doesn't actually describe any events, just background information. --NEMT 02:43, 26 February 2007 (UTC)


  • An aborted coup should be a very important historical event and I agree with the above commentator - this really need to be detailed (how was the coup stopped for instance?!?) and referenced. Observer31 03:39, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
It has been suggested that the coup was aborted at the last minute. Some neo-fascists had already entered the interior ministry and were supposed to take over the national broadcasting centre as well. Intangible2.0 21:39, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
True, ASFAIK. This should be added to the article. Tazmaniacs 19:20, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
If changed the lead (it should serve as a good summary of an expanded article). It is really hard to tell the extent of this attempt here, especially when you hear stories about the Italian Forest Rangers taking part in this or that the coup was called off because of heavy rain.

I believe that an appeals process in 1984 cleared most if not all convictees, cannot find a good reference for this though. Another section in this article should make mention of what material evidence (very little I believe) and what circumstantial evidence was found. Maybe one can also discuss some of the theories that have been put forth regarding this whole affair. Intangible2.0 21:46, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
