The world has suddenly returned to its former grandeur and terrifying state, as in the darkest moments of the last century, yet we are far from having politicians, intellectuals, and journalists even remotely comparable to those we had back then...
While Meloni accuses the Sumud Global Flotilla of setting him up, the global war is on the verge of escalating in the skies over Alaska. Unfortunately, never before in Italy has such a wide gap been seen between the dramatic situation and the inadequacy of the ruling classes.
The tragedy in Gaza is too great to be reduced to a regional election campaign issue, but it is inevitable that the election campaign will also influence the way political forces discuss it, and that, on both sides, it will have a terrible effect.
Unfortunately, the fact is that never before in Italy has there been such a great gap between the dramatic situation and the inadequacy of the ruling classes, between the severity of the times and the fragility of politics. But we know, it is the fundamental tragedy of our era: the world has suddenly returned to its former greatness and terrible state, as in the darkest moments of the last century, yet we are far from having politicians, intellectuals and journalists even remotely comparable to those we had then.
This is confirmed by the fact that in the same hours in which Prime Minister Meloni and her entire party were stubbornly instigating an absurd spiral of completely unfounded accusations and counter-accusations about the political hatred of which they were allegedly victims, a controversy even more grotesque considering the podium from which it came, four Russian aircraft that had reached the edge of Alaskan airspace were confronted by nine American aircraft with orders to "repel the intruders."
A duel with many risks, as Maurizio Molinari writes in Repubblica, according to which "we are one step away from global war even though only forty days have passed since the Anchorage summit on the promises of peace in Ukraine". That is, where Donald Trump (literally) had rolled out the red carpet for Putin.
Aware of the dramatic nature of the moment, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz announced in a letter to the Financial Times a breakthrough regarding the use of frozen Russian assets, a proposal that Germany had previously opposed.
It is hoped that sooner or later a similar increase in awareness will also affect Italian political leaders, making them realize that much more is at stake here, now, than the leadership of a regional administration./ Adapted from “Pamphlet” by “Linkiesta”
