The pro-Hamas pacifists are the real warmongers

The pro-Hamas pacifists are the real warmongers

In Italian squares the Star of David of the Jewish State is placed alongside the swastika of Nazi Germany. Damato's Scratches

Ernesto Galli della Loggia rightly observes in the Corriere della Sera , more than twenty days after the massacres of Jews killed, injured or kidnapped on Israeli soil by Hamas militiamen who came out of the bowels of Gaza, where they operate using the Palestinians as human shields, who "in vast majority of television talk shows and press comments, the theme of "advice to Israel" is increasingly given space in the public declarations of the entire centre-left coalition (but not only). Which is "all about warning against the excesses of reaction… not to exaggerate, to pay attention to the consequences".

THE ANTI-ISRAEL DEMONSTRATIONS

Let's not even talk about the squares, even the Italian ones, where the Star of David of the Jewish State is placed next to the swastika of Hitler's Germany and the flags of Israel struggle to stay in place, like the one taken down from the flagpoles of the Roman headquarters of Fao by a protester emulating in his own way the programs and actions of the terrorist organization just exchanged by a NATO member like Erdogan's Turkey, on the southern front of the Atlantic alliance, for an organization of "liberators" of the Palestinians from " 56 years of Israeli occupation and violation of human rights", almost simultaneously deplored in New York not by some Arab delegate but by the UN secretary general himself, the Portuguese Antonio Manuel de Oliveira Guterres . For goodness sake, let's not take anything away from his long name.

THE ITALIAN AND WESTERN HAMAS

The former director of L' Espresso and former parliamentarian of the left Tommaso Cierno proposed to us in his Identity a Trastevere version "de noantri" of Hamas with an Italian flag printed in Arabic, so to speak, and in flames as sooner or later we will see in the squares , alongside the Israeli and American ones, given the foreign policy line taken by the current government of Giorgia Meloni. However, not even she, like Biden in the White House and even in Israel, when he went there in person after the massacres of October 7, spared herself some calls for prudence in Jewish reactions.

This entire enormous Council to which the West seems to be reduced, and which contributes to further weakening the Israeli prime minister at home despite being honored by visits of support which at this point is more apparent than real, is silent or harmless towards Hamas. Who in practice ended up recognizing the cowardly and bloody right to cover behind and under the now starving Palestinians, their homes, their hospitals, their schools, their churches, with the military arsenals and the Jewish hostages captured in the pogrom of October 7th.

Giuliano Ferrara is not wrong to write in his Foglio that "the squares for the ceasefire" of the Israelis committed to defending their lives "are the squares of the true warmongers", because "the right things are often not compassionate". And because "despite the crowds shouting Not in may name, we must track down and strike the terrorists where they hide and achieve the objective of security and peace".
