The unsustainable hypocrisy of the Day of Remembrance

The tile that fell on the Municipality of Campiglia Marittima, in the province of Livorno, in the days preceding the commemoration of the Day of Remembrance, is one that makes people talk, even too much. Not because there is something strange in the act itself: anti-Semitic outbursts have always been there, always and every day of the year.

This time, however, it is particular, and the particular lies in the fact that the protagonists are two girls who attacked a child younger than themselves and have seen fit to do so right next to the useless, in the opinion of the writer, Day of Remembrance. Attention, not useless in a broad sense, but considering how it was born, late, too late, and how it has developed in recent years, it has become useless. Or worse, they made it into us and, even worse, it is for many a starting point and a topical moment to transform the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the victims of that time into the executioners of today.

Loving dead Jews is easy, while living ones, especially if they do not conform to the rules of political correctness of those who know everything and never make mistakes, is objectively much more difficult. But we know that the mother of the imbecile is always pregnant, we should not be surprised at all, just as we should not be surprised if today a thick film like "Schindler's List" is at January 27 as "A chair for two" is at December 24th. This situation that frankly has become unbearable, as unbearable is the sea of ​​obviousness that one feels on this occasion, hypocrisies due even to European and national law, is the litmus test of the downgrading of what instead should have been a symbolic day but it is not. never become.

Returning to what happened in Campiglia Marittima, what was clear to the slightly less distracted observers is that a lot has been said about this matter but unfortunately little has been said. This is the reason why after contacting the press office of the Municipality of Campiglia Marittima I asked two simple questions on aspects that have been skilfully overlooked in the mare nostrum of what has been said:
1) Are the two girls Italian from an Italian family? Or second or third generation Italians?
2) Are families politically active?

The response from the mayor, Mrs. Alberta Ticciati was:
1) The two girls are Italian from Italian families.
2) That the municipal administration knows families are not politically active. For the rest of the considerations, there is an ongoing investigation, we know for sure that there are three families involved who are experiencing a tragedy.

The mayor also added that he had agreed, during a phone call with Israel's Deputy Ambassador to Italy Alon Simhayoff, on the importance of Remembrance Day and on the need to act hard against all forms of racism and on the advisability of adopting the definition. of IHRA anti-Semitism by the Municipality of Campiglia Marittima. If all this materializes, and we have no reason to doubt it, only time will tell us the truth, perhaps a good thing will be born from a cowardly act.

But if the families of the two girls are Italian, I was told by word of mouth very Italian, that is, not second or third generation, and if they are not, at least so it would seem, politically active, where did the hate words that are born? were used by the two young women while they attacked their peer guilty of being Jewish? When they shouted at him that he had to die in the crematoria, did they know what they were saying? And if they knew, fifteen years is not many but not too few, where did they learn it? Where did they learn to hate another person just because of a different faith?

The foolish adult, absurdly, the ignorant one and who may not have had the way to educate himself and who speaks by hearsay or acts to be accepted by his fellow idiots like him is, paradoxically, more justified than two girls who certainly at school they go there and have educators who take care of their technical and cultural training. If they talked about crematoriums it means that they know them and if they know them they also know what they were used for. If every anti-Semitic act should be unacceptable, this is even more so because the victims, yes the victims, in this case are three, two manipulated and one hit.

If you really want to eradicate the roots on which this sad story was born, you need to understand the origin of the induced hatred and make the right price pay to those who, from behind the scenes, made themselves responsible for what happened, looking for, as far as possible, to understand how much more damage he has done and repair it before it violently comes to light.

Remembrance Day, in consideration of what we have seen, both lately and in past years, is a useless day that many hope to pass soon and that will remain useless and stale as it has always been since the day of its establishment.

While the survivors of the extermination camps leave us year after year making the living testimonies of what the Shoah were ever more scarce, the voices of denial in the world are becoming higher and more arrogant. In the face of all this, let me tell you, you don't need the hypocritical speeches, always the same, with good intentions, which come out of the various drawers of those who, once a year, find themselves having to speak in front of an audience that is often distracted but who must to be present. Just as the useless torchlight processions that are organized and that transform a moment of mourning into a country fair are useless and never have.

The Day of Remembrance has been established, but all that really needed to be done, that is, the study and collective awareness of the evil that lives in the human soul, evil and hatred that, as history teaches, do not have towards Jews. never made discounts, it was not done. Herbert Pagani in his "Hate for my land" explained it in a few very clear lines: Auschwitz is only an industrial example of genocide. There have been thousands of artisanal genocides. It would take me ten days just to list all the pogroms in Spain, Russia, Poland and North Africa.

In conclusion, I can now reassure all those who, despite its uselessness, poorly digest this day and live with the fear that it may change and become serious. Rest assured, this time it is still exactly as it was designed, useless and stale, and it will surely remain so for centuries because it is easier to twist and torch than to become aware. But above all I can assure you that from midnight today you will be able, for the next 364 days including Sundays and Fridays, to speak ill of the Jews alive and of Israel, the only nation they have, without running into too many problems. Of this I am sure because each of you has a Jewish friend to flaunt, the useful idiot, this time Jewish, good for all seasons.
