" Our soul cries 'is not true, can not be true.' And then, defeated cry 'never again' ." And the phrase written by Premier Silvio Berlusconi at the end of visit the Holocaust memorial Yad Vashem on the book of signatures. "With deep emotion ," writes Berlusconi.
could not get worse signal for peace in the Middle East, following the Memorial Day, and the declarations of Prime Minister Berlusconi in Jerusalem in the first leg of his three days in Israel. Not enough friendly relations with dictators East, Putin and Lukashenko, or the highest authority in Libya, Gaddafi Mu'ammar: Italy's position is clear in this case, as highlighted by the statements of Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Prime Minister, who said that "Israel has no an older friend of Berlusconi in the Community International . The meeting between the two have retraced all the hot issues of international politics, from the allocation of nuclear weapons by Iran, on which interventions should be " by strengthening the UN sanctions ", according to the leader PDL. The same penalties that were not in place when, during the famous Operation Lead Time ", the Israeli army used weapons banned by the international community on civilian targets, women and children. The instrumentalization of the past then the game is always going on, so that has also used this occasion to reaffirm the closeness of the two peoples, the Italian and one led by leader of the nationalist Likud, Benjamin Netanyahu, to focus on an imaginary Judeo-Christian culture to the foundations of European civilization. The only border, the cultural one, which continues to stand as a symptom of an identity to be preserved and contrasted with arrogance within an increasingly contaminated by different religions and world views. But we are sure that this is the lowest common denominator to make Israel " one of the five or six most important partners " Italy? Or is, as always, money and economic relations with the only democratic country in the Middle East, as it is defined, making it "important" the Italian-Israeli summit and make the glue between the two powers? The question is so trivial as the answer, so that it is paradoxical that serves to remove the patina of apparent friendliness between Berlusconi and the 'friend Benjamin. The ceremony ends with a tree planted in the Forest of Nations and a moving visit to the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial, where the Head of State laid a wreath in memory of the Nazi extermination, "never to return to to the indifference of the world is the greatest evil "man. Indifference to, once again, seems to have only one way: that of money.
