I think he is the mafia or at least he is used by the mafia because a man with so many weaknesses can be very easy blackmailed... Vittorio Mangano, a life sentenced gangster, worked several years for Silvio Berlusconi at his Villa at Arcore(Milan) as stablekeeper although it seems there even were no horses.
Vittorio was introduced by Marcello Dell'Utri , Silvio's right hand since years, co founder of Forza Itaia and sentenced in 2004 to nine years by a Palermo court on charge of "external association to the Mafia".
In his last interview(19 may 1992), judge Paolo Borsellino described Vittorio Mangano not as a little fish but as the mafia bridge('il ponte') to north Italy.
Paolo Borsellino, together with his friend judge Giovanni Falcone , was in that time fighting a hard battle against political corruption and mafia.
This interview has only been sent out on one satellite television channel ( video and written version )
He talks about the fact that the mafia is very interested to invest their money in the business world and tries to penetrate.
Furthermore he mentions that there are more running investigations involving Mangano, Berlusconi and senator Marcello Dell'Utri
Four days after this interview, his colleague judge Giovanni Falcone dies in one of the most brutal bomb attacks ever.
This man had to die, 100 meters of highway were destroyed in the 'strage di Capaci '.
Two months later, Paolo Borsellino dies in again another brutal bomb attack.
Suddenly the mafia bombings stopped, Forza Italia was raised in a few months and Silvio Berlusconi won the elections... In 2006, Silvio Berlusconi lost the elections after a very 'turbulent' election night.
Three hours later, at 5 AM in the morning, Bernardo Provenzano, the biggest mafia boss ever, was arrested…

Why is Silvio Berlusconi so much interested in the British ITV Is the media sector so profitable or is there something more behind this?
It's surely a profitable sector but there are much better ways to invest. Silvio Berlusconi is one of the world richest man so he surely doesn't need it. I consider him a malicious genius so there must be other reasons... He wants to control the European media like he has done with the Italian media. And that is surely a good investment. If you control the media, you can act undisturbed with all your other dirty affairs. At this moment, he even managed to make himself untouchable with a hasty voted law and there are numerous members in the Italian parliament convicted or accused of crimes and mafia connections. Silvio Berlusconi states now that he will govern Italy for the next 15 years... This is quite possible with such a media control. Let's pray for Italy... Europe should be better warned! Silvio Berlusconi is coming and this smells of nothing else then mafia...
Who was Silvio Berlusconi campaign manager in 1993?
He controls the media so why should he need a campaign manager? People often think that Berlusconi is an idiot because he says a lot of controversial things but instead I think he's rather a malicious genius that never says just something without reason. To proove my theory: Here are some of his statements in the week before the 2008 elections: Silvio Berlusconi assures a few weeks before the elections that there is no place in his coalition for persons with a criminal past or with mafia connections(an exception is made for political crimes) A few days before the elections, Berlusconi remembers one of his previous plans: submit judges at regular times to psychiatric examinations . Under the previous government of Berlusconi, there were plans to change the juridical system radically and the above suggestion was one of the hot topics. Silvio Berlusconi says that, in case of a possible victory, the as neutral regarded president Napolitano will have to make place for somebody of his coalition. Silvio's right hand and co founder of Forza Italia has another plan. Senator Dell'Utri ( involved in numerous scandals and several times convicted in maffia related crimes) thinks that the history books about the role of the resistance in the second world war have to be changed. He wants a review of who were the real heroes. Silvio Berlusconi was at 25 april(national feast of the liberation) not present at the festivities like he has never been in the past. The late Enzo Biagi was a famous and everywhere respected journalist. Enzo Biagi was one of the journalists that had to leave the RAI after the so-called 'Bulgarian diktat' of Silvio Berlusconi. He was accused to make a criminal use of television. Silvio Berlusconi claims until now that Enzo left the RAI out of free will and that he did it for the money. Senator Dell'Utri comes with another statement. He defines a 'real' hero: Vittorio Mangano , part of the mafia, an impressing curriculum. Vittorio worked several years for Berlusconi as 'horsekeeper' at his villa(although it seems that there were no horses…) This man has been defined by the judge Paulo Borsellino as the maffia link to North Italy . Borsellino died two months after this statement in one of Italies most brutal bomb attacks. Dell'Utri says literally that 'Mangano was a hero because he never confessed under pressure compromising things about Berlusconi or Dell'Utri '. Silvio Berlusconi confirms this the following day. Silvio Berlusconi gets a lot of critics because the business man and newspaper owner Ciarrapico , who is part of Berlusconi's party, is a convinced fascist and brings until now very proudly the fascist greetings. Guiseppe Ciarrapico is not only an editor of very dubious press releases but has been convicted for numerous crimes. Silvio Berlusconi says that the fascist simpaties of Ciarrapico are details and that this man is usefull to his party because he owns journals and magazines. Guiseppe Ciarrapico, as well as Marcello Dell'Utri, and many others with a criminal past and accused of mafia connections are now senators in the Italian parliament… Some more info and references Silvio Berlusconi and the 'democratic' 2008 election campaign www.wikio.com/article/57159079 Silvio Berlusconi: A threath for European democracy? www.wikio.com/article/54654672 Help Europe: Silvio Berlusconi is taking over the European media www.wikio.com/article/56367203

Hereunder all facts which are all described in the book "L'odore dei soldi"( The smell of money ) of Elio Veltri and Marco Travaglio published in 2001.Silvio Berlusconi tried two times to prosecute the authors for slander but lost both cases.The Milanese bank, "Banca Rasini", was cited by Michele Sindona (P2 lodge member just like Silvio Berlusconi) , as well as in numerous official documents drawn up by magistrates investigating the mafia, as the principle bank used by the the mafia for laundering dirty money in the north of Italy.Included among the Banca Rasini's clients were Pippo Calò, Totò Riina and Bernardo Provenzano, during the years in which they formed the "cupola" (leadership) of the mafia.In those same years a certain Signor Luigi Berlusconi, father of Silvio Berlusconi, was employed at the Banca Rasini, first as a clerk, then as "Procurator with signing rights", and finally as Manager.During the 1970s, a certain Signor Silvio Berlusconi registered twenty-three holding companies with the Banca Rasini as "Hairdresser's and Beautician's"...In 1979 the Customs Officer, Massimo Maria Berruti, resigned from the Italian "Guardia di Finanza". He had led the investigation by the "Guardia di Finanza" into the twenty-three holding companies registered with the Banca Rasini, and had subsequently been responsible for closing that investigation. Immediately after his resignation, a certain Signor Massimo Maria Berruti was hired by Berlusconi's main holding, Fininvest.Unfortunately, the archives of the Banca Rasini went up in flames due to a misterious fire...Source(s):Michele Sandonahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michele_SindonaBernardo Provenzanohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernardo_ProvenzanoThe payment proof of P2 membership of Silvio Berlusconihttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ricevuta_di_pagamento_per_l'iscrizione_del_dott._Silvio_Berlusconi_alla_loggia_massonica_P2.gif
