Via Statuto 18, Milan: a haberdashery displays a sign in Hebrew.
The sign says “Zionist Israelis are not welcome here.” In other words, the sign corresponds to the modern version of the Third Reich’s “Jews are not allowed in here”; the fact that it is written in Hebrew or that instead of mentioning Jews, it mentions Israelis or Zionists is completely irrelevant. These are interchangeable terms that have made their way into the hearts of Italians thanks to Islam and its decades of dawa.
This episode is part of what will be a long list of episodes that we will see in the coming weeks or months, inaugurated by the Taverna Santa Chiara in Naples, where the owner not only kicked out two Israeli tourists, but received support from authorities, institutions and public opinion.
Because the first problem with these incidents is certainly the ban on Jews (a.k.a. Israelis or Zionists), but the second problem is the reaction of Italian society brought into focus at different levels of the country: the institutions and authorities are indirectly supporting these incidents the moment they do not denounce them and proceed to take action against these clear anti-Semitic discriminations.
