Husband of Dissident MEP Found Dead in Palermo

by Robert Kogon
29 May 2024 3:00 PM

The husband of the Italian member of the European Parliament Francesca Donato was found dead in Palermo on Saturday, victim of an apparent homicide. Donato has been one of the most vociferous critics in the European Parliament of Covid response measures like mass vaccination and “green passes”, as well as many other flagship EU policies. Her husband, the architect Angelo Onorato, was found dead in the driver seat of his car with a plastic strap wrapped around his neck and a blood stain on his shirt – “probably caused by the violent coughing and gagging which accompany suffocation”, according to the Italian daily Corriere della Sera.

Donato was one of a small group of dissident members of the European Parliament who opposed the EU’s Covid response: in particular, mass vaccination with experimental vaccines and the ‘green pass’ vaccination certificates which were used throughout the EU to bring it about by discriminating against the unvaccinated. She has also opposed the EU and, more generally, Western financial and material support for the Ukrainian war effort and called for peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia.

She was also one of the very few eurodeputies – even in the Covid dissident group – to have voted against the Digital Services Act: the European Commission’s signature censorship law, which was instrumentalised to target Covid dissidents even before its passage and which has had a chilling effect on free speech worldwide. In 2013, one year before she first ran for a seat in the European Parliament and six years before being elected, she even founded a ‘Eurexit Project’ calling for Italy to leave the eurozone.

Onorato was found dead on Saturday afternoon by Donato herself and the couple’s 21 year-old daughter Carolina. According to reports in the Italian press, Francesca and Carolina had gone looking for him after he failed to respond to their telephone calls, locating his body thanks to the location tracker on his iPhone. Both mother and daughter have responded with dismay to suggestions that Onorato, despite his apparent death by strangulation, might somehow have committed suicide.

“My father was killed,” Carolina is reported to have written on social media. “Let no one dare say or even just think that he committed suicide.”

In a post on her X account on Monday Donato wrote:

I am going through the most difficult and devastating moments of my life. The pain is unimaginable. I’m asking everyone to refrain from speculations about the causes of my husband’s death. There are investigations underway, let’s let the police do its work.

Or something else? Palermo is no paradise. It may be simple opportunistic murder.

Perhaps I’m naive, but I don’t want to believe there are murder squads hunting down prominent dissenters.

Possibly not. But then we are told mi6 employs state sponsored murderers through the bond novels. All signed off by uncle Sam and now they probably use Ukrainian operatives rather than British nationals. Of course the purpose of the Bond films is to convince ourselves when our government commits murder it’s for the greater good.

And we certainly know that the Russian equivalent does, such as the murder of Skripal in Salisbury.

There is no proof of that. The evidence is circumstantial.

Remember three African leaders shuffled off their coil in 2020….And from what I have read, they were all against Lockdown countermeasures. The ex president of Tanzania mocked the PCR test when he sent off various items, like pieces of fruit to be tested for Covid.

Yes, well done for remembering that! It was actually FIVE Ethnic African leaders against lockdowns and forced vaccinations for their people. A List of Honour:

— President Jovenel Moise of Haiti

— President John Magufuli of Tanzania

— President Hamed Bakayoko of Ivory Coast

— President Ambrose Dlamini of eSwatini

— President Pierre Nkurunziza of Burundi

They were all replaced by more compliant leaders who started mass covid vaccinations straightaway.

Just look what Haiti has become, so soon after their popular President Moise was assassinated.

That President was John Magafuli. All three of those Presidents were replaced by Davos compliant people. No question they were murdered.

There is a legal basis for the legendary 00 Licence to Kill.

It is called Crown Immunity. But it has been affected by human rights laws – only however if anyone knows British state actors have been involved in extra-judicial killing – like the Death on the Rock case about IRA members shot dead by British forces in Gibraltar.

Palermo has its issues, but the Mafia’s key interests in regards to the EU is people trafficking, I don’t think there was much skin in the game to be made from Covid for them, unless of course they were heavily invested in Pfizer.

But why, if there was no theft. It has to be politically motivated. Has he campaigned against the religion of peace, that could be a motivation.

That’s looks like a standard method of assassination. A Jewish friend of mine that was in Israeli Intelligence was trained in that method.

Being vocal against the scamdemic narrative can be harmful to one’s health and well-being, it would seem.

Sincere condolences to Mr. Onorato’s family and friends. RIP.

We better start encouraging people to act more like courageous Lions instead of cowering Sheep. Or they WILL win. And we WILL die (even the Saferoomers).

If a sardonic comment results in people being afraid to speak out and to go into safe rooms, then perhaps this site and some of the topics discussed isn’t the best place for them.

My response above doesn’t seem to make much sense now. I was responding to LionelMan’s unedited post that said – regarding the purpose of my earlier comment about the scamdemic – if I had intended to cause people to go to saferooms, then I surely convinced some to just STFU and let it happen.
Either my page hadn’t refreshed to show the edit before I responded, or I was stuck in a time warp. Probably the latter.

Rerun time ala Slovakia. We have to admit to ourselves, no matter how difficult, that TPTB will kill us if we stand in the way of their Genocide. Once we realize that, it will be easier to do what needs to be done to save ourselves in a just war. For those fearing that scenario remember we have billions on our side vs the infinitesimal few at the top brainwashing the rest.  Just watch the ending of OZ to see why we will win and what happens when the leaders of Genocide are the ones dying off with zip ties.

Both the Slovakian Prime Minister Fico and the Italian MEP wife of this tragic murder victim Angelo Onorato opposed western military and financial aid to Ukraine.

Slovakian Deputy Prime Minister Robert Kalinak also proposed sending the 300,000 Ukrainian draft dodger “refugees” in the West back home to fight, instead of sending our own NATO troops.

Somebody doesn’t like these people interfering with the Globalist Meatgrinder in Ukraine. Zelensky?

‘Italian MEP Francesca Donato on Monday made an appeal for people and the media to stop speculating about the mysterious death of her husband Angelo Onorato at the weekend…….

‘I ask everyone to refrain from speculating about my husband’s cause of death.’

‘Investigations are underway, let’s let the police work.’
