Apostolico does not leave and doubles down on the government
The new sorties of the Apostolic Judge. Damato's Scratches
Some imaginative reporters, for example on the Messaggero , 14 years after the death of the presenter Mike Bongiorno and 64 years after the closure of his very famous show "Lascia ooppio", have reopened the television competition and officially registered the now famous judge Iolanda Apostolico. Which he has not left at all in Catania, after the controversy over his first judicial decrees for the release of irregular Tunisian migrants held in the Pozzallo collection center and his participation, five years ago, in street demonstrations against the government. The lady doubled the decrees by ordering the release of four other migrants, also Tunisians, seeking asylum for having fled mainly family problems. Which the magistrate reflected on without any embarrassment, I fear, due to their substantial modesty compared to those one imagines when talking about people fleeing wars, hunger and persecution.
NO EMBARRASSMENT FOR APOSTOLIC
No embarrassment seems to have been felt by the judge even in the reference to the European directives which also allow detention, pending the examination of requests for asylum and international protection "if alternative, less coercive measures are not effectively applicable". Well, this lack of alternative measures is demonstrated by the fact, which I believe is not unknown to the judge, that the three or four Tunisians she freed on 30 September became untraceable, that is, they ran away, before their requests for asylum were rejected: in less than ten days.
“The judge doesn't give up”, was the headline somewhere in smug red. On the other hand, "executioner who quits" was shouted in the Seventies. But it was done by the far right, with which I don't think the magistrate serving in Catania wants to be confused after she helped us understand her political and/or ideological orientations
MERITS – OR DEMERITS – OF APOSTOLIC
Among the other merits or demerits, depending on one's taste, of the Apostolic Judge and her other decrees is that of having at least partially distracted attention from wars, the real ones, no longer "pills", as the Pope once called them , which surround us and in some ways even involve us due to their harmful effects on our daily lives: from Ukraine attacked by Putin's Russians to Israel attacked by Palestinian terrorists. Who, among other things, did not have for their people who live in Gaza now militarily besieged the same respect, the same fear, the same anguish so widely nourished and recommended in the world, and not only in Italy, in the wait of the Israeli retaliation after the ferocity unleashed against Jews who had no other fault in being born, like those beheaded children.
