"The ground of the vast plateau karst hides a world of darkness and dark abyss vertical burrows that are lost in the deep silence of the land, vast caverns, winding tunnels traversed by streams of screaming, covered in salt crystals enchanted, wild caves that imagination of the vulgar crowd of scary legends.

The term "foiba" is a dialect corruption of the Latin "fovea", meaning "pit"; le foibe, infatti, sono voragini rocciose, a forma di imbuto rovesciato, create dall’erosione di corsi d’acqua; possono raggiungere i 200 metri di profondità”
In Istria sono state registrate più di 1.700 foibe. (Nella foto sopra una foiba istriana).
Le foibe furono utilizzate in diverse occasioni e, in particolare, subito dopo la fine della seconda guerra mondiale per infoibare ("spingere nella foiba") migliaia di italiani, antifascisti e fascisti, colpevoli di opporsi all’espansionismo comunista slavo propugnato da Josip Broz meglio conosciuto come Maresciallo Tito.
A riguardo è interessante riportare quanto affermato da Kardelj (vice di Tito) il quale poté affermare che "We were asked to leave the Italians by all means and it was done." Nobody knows how many have been the infoibati: some estimates speak of Unfortunate 10-15000.
victims of Tito were conducted, after atrocious tortures, near the foiba, here's jailers, do not pay already inflicted ill-treatment, blocked the wrists and feet with wire to each person with the help of pliers, and then bound to each other all through the wire. The butchers, in most cases, they fired the first victim of the group tumbled into ruin in foiba pushing themselves to others.
Over the years, these martyrs were vilified and forgotten. Consider that, looking through the "Vocabulary of the Italian language" published by Treccani, you run into a lot of evasive definition of foiba: "In geology, physics, type of sinkhole, in particular., In Istria, a large closed basin (due to sinkholes fused together) on the bottom of a sinkhole opens.
Where is the truth? On the tragic issue sinkholes are therefore still the "veiled lady", not only on his skills, but also on its veracity. And 'though useful to ask how never the whole story has remained a dark chapter, a chapter removed for so long. Those who have had the interest to leave it in the dark?
In the first place - is the response of historians - the interest is the Anglo-Americans. When it wears out in 1948 the break between Tito and Moscow and the West looks at Marshall as a possible valuable ally against the USSR, is dropped any idea of \u200b\u200bdeepening the events of 1945: "Belgrade's explanation about the political nature of the deletions and the general innocence of the dead, becomes a kind of official version accepted by Western diplomats not to the point. "
Second "remove" is the Italian Government by De Gasperi who do not like at all to turn the spotlight on humiliating terms acceptable to the Free Territory of Trieste (which will remain in the hands until November 26, 1954): "the silence historical foibe becomes functional on the silence on the peace treaty and the decrease of national sovereignty. "
Finally, the interest is also silencing of the PCI, not at all taken back on an issue that highlights the contradictions between the new location the national party, and the internationalist ties with Moscow.
Foibe. It 's the case ... Not to forget to talk about it!
