Well, I think the obvious answer to the Minister's semi-rhetorical question is YES.

So, this confuses me a tad. (doesn't take much- har har yuk yuk) Fallaci lives in NY, yes? Was she in NY when she wrote the book? If you're living in one country- but you are a citizen of another, and you break the other country's anti-free speech law- can you still be charged with a crime?

So can I bring suit in Italian courts against those in Italy who defame and insult America? Because Giuliana Segrena is going to jail if I can do that...

hmm. Good point, Shark. Especially considering that, by all accounts, she lied about her version of the events.

But Shark,
Poor Giuliana felt the spent shells from "hundreds" of rounds fall upon her as their car came to a stop. The rounds ( or whatever) were "all over" her as she tried to climb out of the car. Never mind that brass doesn't follow a round, or that the car only took a couple of rounds, none meant to be fatal.
How can we doubt her version of the event? How could she not be telling the truth as a victim?
Let those in Europe defame themselves, let the rest come here, because God knows; we won't stop them.
A lesson learned too late is still a lesson learned.
Or, maybe not.

If I were an Italian tax payer I would be livid.
If the prosecutors didn't think there was a case, who the hell does the judge think is going to prosecute this case.
The same prosecutors who think the case sucks.
Duh.
The ones in the position to know whether this is a winnable case.
What a waste of taxpayers money not to mention a PR fiasco for Italy.
Against a person who doesn't even reside in Italy.
Have the Italian courts locked up all the Mafia now so they need something new to do or justify their existence and salaries?

Hey shark what a great idea, wonder if there is some way to do that, anyone know Italian law?
problem is libel and slander laws have short limitation periods
or maybe the idiots in the Senate can do something useful and pass the slandering the US government act, man the courts would be abuzzing
