«We have faith in Italian justice»Mohammad Hannoun’s family members judiciously hastened to declare. «Ggreat confidence»the imam immediately joined genovese Hussein Wrong, «full trust» from the Palestinian communities in Italy. E if they trust them, why should we ever be wary?
Who doesn’t it is he has just as much trust, or rather he has none own not at all, they are our local militants of the causewho have already decided, While sui social si begins a weave the narrative of thel’attack on the Palestinian movement («uan unconstitutional legal monstrosity that transforms the repressive measures of the Israeli fascist-Zionist regime into Italian state law” it reads in a statement from Power to the People) and of allegations based on documenti sendti da Isrtole and therefore by definitione inattentiveI am two (mica seeor: beyond a questi there are thousands of interceptions telephone and environmental reports collected over months of work by our counter-terrorism team).
Mbetween all this takes shape, it was said, we begin in the streetsicome and see the banners that express solidarity with Hannoun e they demand the lfreedom for his and all those arrestedi.
Ewell: we want to share trust in the judiciary ewith family eithe movement pro-Palwe hope that il president of the Palestinian Association of Italyalleged head of the Italian Hamas cell, is indeed unrelated to the accusations. Magar the money he collected they were handed over to Hamas, but to its own political wing who then distributed them athe populationor, partly or in totothey came requiredof without his knowledge from the military wing of Hamas, That he used them as we know. We will see.
Rthisno However the word shen’t so much ha pronounced, privately in wiretaps and in public at rallies: he himself said these, not I’m a setup Zionist. He said them and many of you heard them, dear ones pro-Pal friends. Without batting an eye. Clapping your hands.
Let’s take for example these, shout in the square in Milan last October 18thafter the gruesome images of some (also in this case presumed) Palestinian collaborators dethe occupying enemy, executed in the street, and it goes without saying without trial, with machine gun fire: «The revolution has its laws»the architect Hannoun had saidin Italy froml 1983. «The collaborators who killed Gazan men, women, children and elderly people must be killed. It is the law of retaliation: whoever has killed must be killed. Why cry for these criminals?”.
The law of retaliationdo you realize? Code of Hammurabi stuffBabylonian civilization, 18th century BC. That And but rather one of the oldest collections of written lawsand therefore a great achievement for the timebut, let’s say, corresponding to a sensitivity and a and’idea of human rights a little differente frome oureof us Westerners you guaranteed (and oh well capitalistscolonialists, suprematists and so on self-flagellating) of the 20th1st century AD. The law of retaliation: oh, are you okay?
The same concepts about the executions of the “infidels”, moreover, Hannoun had reiterated them Exactly a week later it isl convegno international on «Il zionism: what it really is, how to fight it” organizzato in Rome from the Front of Dissent. AI applaud you (you could quote the hit 1968 of the Chameleons) of people around him. Randomly, among the interveners, Angelo D’Orsi, Moni Ovadia. People who, as in the song, lo urges: «Sing, sing again…».
And he sings. Sing the «necessity of jihad» and the nobility of martyrdom: «We sacrifice ourselves with money and with timethey put their blood into it» he reflects, intercepted, with his followers fellow believers. Martyrdom, are we crazy? Fidelity to the mission to the point of self-sacrifice? We see them better, our students pro-Pal, between a lesson and a parade, to doand evening with friends.
As for the jihad, let’s hire toophilologically, that it is not all in short the “holy war”come nell’interpretation common, but, more properly and literally, the “effort” towards a purpose; and that the realization of this purposei.e. Lto conversion ofthe infidels, non must avvinire necessarily by the edge of the sword, as in times gone by or with tools more current and devastating. However, we are still talking about conversion to Islamthat is, to a respectable religion no less than the others, but in terms of costumes he did not deal with modernitywith secularization, secularismthe distinction between God and State.
That is, all those things that they have defined the environment in which have developed more advanced ideas on human and civil rights. Ossia thatgthe same rights shared by ouri socially engaged young peopleThat they show up on the streets again now (for years now) come pro-Pal, no (if necessary) under the banners Of Not One Lessnow (at least once a year) behind the colorful floats of Gay Pride (never, however, under the flag dell’Ucraina; how are you over there they are all “Ucronazisi”).
Now, che What happens togays, lesbians, ai queer bi-, trans-, inter- e othersmenti sexual in countries where the law of retaliation applies? What about women (not to mention feminists)? What do they have to share with you, pro-Pal next door, ceryou social models, and whose speeches explicitly vi adheres?
You have read what he writes, on the situation of women in his country, the Palestinian journalist and feminist Asmaa Al-Ghoul in his book “The rebel of Gaza” (tradotto from E/W in 2024)? And to dispel every shadow Of “collaborationism” we add that the author interviewsby them The World dated December 4, 2023, ha admitted with gritted teeth That «sWell our values, principles and vision are not aligned, this brutal war has left us no choice but to defend Hamas».
All this, of course, is not to say that we don’t have to beatsking for the Palestinian causewhich is before all a humanitarian fact. But must be able to distinguish, exercise critical skills, choose judiciously and whatmpay of battle. AOtherwise they feed misunderstandings and the cause is damaged. Because it’s true, as you read in the signs rise up again these daysthat “resistance is not terrorismBut it is equally true that terrorism is not resistance.
