Pro-Pal demonstrations and the Reggio Emilia scandal, with Albanese's sectarianism, the mayor's humiliation, and the Democratic Party's silence.

You may agree or not, but the demonstrations of millions of citizens who took to the streets against the massacre of Gaza They are certainly a sign of civil responsibility that deserves respect when they do not degenerate into episodes of violence and when they do not praise the terrorists of Hamas. But the pro-Pal demonstrations cannot ignore two considerations: the first is the lack of similar demonstrations in support of the courageous struggle of theUkraine against the Russian invader and the second concerns the guilty removal of the drama of the Israeli hostages of October 7. On this last aspect the scandal of Reggio Emilia and the deplorable manifestation of real sectarianism of Francesca Albanese, United Nations rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories. The Albanian had been invited a few days ago to the Teatro Valli in Reggio Emilia to receive from the hands of the Mayor Marco Massari the Tricolour Prize of the Democratic Party, but when the mayor indicated the liberation of the Israeli hostages as one of the conditions for peace in Gaza – as foreseen by the Blair-Trump peace plan that even Hamas He at least partially accepted—all hell broke loose. Boos and protests from the audience, but above all, Albanese's icy and gratuitous verdict, which said: "I don't judge the mayor, I forgive him: but he must promise me he won't mention this matter (Editor's note: the release of the hostages on October 7th) again." Incredibly, the mayor accepted the public humiliation Albanese inflicted on him, but this is pure Stalinism, and it matters little that Albanese apologized to Massari a few days later. Even more incredible is that the Democratic Party of Reggio Emilia, a city decorated for military valor for the Italian resistance's war of liberation, hid behind hypocritical silence in the face of their mayor's humiliation. But equally incredible is the rudeness, to say the least, with which Albanese stood up and walked away on Sunday's "In onda" show on La 7 when he began to speak. Liliana Segre, undisputed icon of theanti-Semitism.
