Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi spends night in hospital after suffering broken nose and losing two teeth during attack at rally By Nick Pisa Last updated at 10:28 AM on 14th December 2009
With a split lip, a broken nose and his face covered in blood, this was Silvio Berlusconi after he was punched to the ground by an attacker yesterday. The 73-year-old Italian prime minister also lost two teeth in the assault as he signed autographs at the end of a stormy political rally in Milan.

It takes a brave man to throw a plaster ornament at a senior mafiosi. Now if someone could do that to Murdoch, the other owner of garbage newspapers and TV channels!

Was anyone as irritated as I was to hear the statue he was hit with described as being of the 'duomo cathedral'?

I think the fact that he was clocked with a model of the Duomo puts the icing on the cake!
Yes, every "leader" needs the odd slap. This one is mafia, too. He deserves assassination in the time-honoured way.

It wasn't as much fun to see as hear about. These buggers all turn out to be human in the end, damn them.

Don't be beguiled with the age of these murderous old mafiosi, aqua. These are people who use murder as their means of earning a living. Save your compassion for their victims.
