Albania is facing a wave of violence, the perpetrators of which are trying to remain anonymous. Private businesses, state institutions, ministries and perhaps even the Prime Minister's Office are being burned.

After 1997 and 1998, this is the most violent episode in the history of Albanian politics.

It's not a big drama that offices and building doors are burning. The real drama is that violence is trying to remain anonymous.

The Democratic Party, the largest opposition party, is the real organizer of the protest. Its people are the only ones fighting in the streets and are leading the acts of violence on behalf of the students, who are neither in the square nor leading the arsonists.

Some other political hyenas, who can't even fit 40 people in the square, are trying to confront some DP MPs, supposedly to get them away from their protest.

This, besides being hypocrisy, is also an insidious attempt to leave the violence unpunished.

The perpetrators of violence are concrete people. They are identifiable, investigateable and punishable according to the law. So far, there are no police statistics to prove that students are at the forefront of violence against institutions or private businesses.

So it's best to leave students to their own devices and work.

The violence of 1997 had a name. The violence of 1998 had a name. Violence without a name, without responsibility, and without political leadership is anarchy. It brings neither change nor hope, except to divide the parties and drive both into the trenches.

I am not worried about the balance of violence. I have seen worse in this country and the physical consequences of the violence have passed quickly, but Albania has paid dearly. Before 1997 we were very close to Europe, and now we are 30 years behind.

The Albanian police, which are being accused of violence, are in fact completely withdrawn and have left room for violence.

Those who are afraid to take responsibility for violence cannot remove fear from themselves and cannot change the country.

When violence is led by a major opposition party, people feel safer than when it is led by an anonymous gang, whose dialect often does not resemble that of the citizens of Tirana. For this reason, the attempt to delegitimize the leadership of the protest by the Democratic Party is an insidious attempt to make the violence anonymous.

That way, everyone is happy. The DP organizes violence with people breaking doors, burning ministries, blowing up banking institutions, and beating up neutral citizens. Then, several scenes of rejection are created within the protest to provide them with an alibi. Thus, they are happy with the violence without taking responsibility for it.

Arlind Qorri and Agron Shehaj, whose power reaches as far as some persecuting guerrillas, feel happy about violence, but they try not to let anyone take responsibility for it. Not even themselves. They simply love anonymous violence, because they think that if it goes well, it belongs to them, while if it goes badly, they wash their hands of it.

Even the government seems content with the violence. The ministries are without guards and without police. The special forces make a spectacle of some guerrillas who are proclaiming themselves heroes, who have beaten their families more than the police, but who have no connection with the students, while public voices against the violence feel afraid to speak out.

Thus, violence is now a good solution for everyone. For the DP that organizes it, for Qorri and Shehaj who use it, for the government that seeks to show citizens into whose hands they can fall, and, of course, for the West, which thinks that these are protests like those in France or Spain.

It's a good solution for everyone, except Albania.

Violence must either have political responsibility, or it must be treated as ordinary violence.

If there is political responsibility, if it is the DP that emerges as the real organizing party, or even others, then it is not so worrying, since it has a political objective. Violence without political responsibility cannot be allowed, since it is no longer a political issue, but a bandit issue.

The last violence of this kind in Albania was that of September 1998, after the murder of Azem Hajdari, which ended within three hours in theft and shoplifting.

If the parties do not take political responsibility for the violence, then public order must have its say.

The physical and material damage caused is symbolic in relation to the political damage caused by the fear and cowardice of politicians who throw stones and hide their hands. Illegal political violence cannot exist and cannot be accepted. Even more so in the name of students, who are neither in the square nor at the forefront of the violence.

The courage to confront violence is a political act. Trying to leave it anonymous is cowardice. Citizens should know in whose name those who have taken the bridge of fire in their hands are tearing down ATMs, ministry doors, and business windows.

They cannot do this on behalf of the citizens of Tirana, nor on behalf of the students, and, above all, they cannot do it on behalf of anyone, as they are trying to do.
