«You and the Israeli people must die burnt in the flames of hell», «You have the sluttiest mother of all», «M…. of man “. These are some of the insults and threats suffered by the leader of the League, Matteo Salvini, on social media, following his tweet of solidarity with Israel, “once again the target of missiles and violence”.
The same federal secretary of the League denounces it, always on social media, commenting: “And then they say they are democrats and pacifists … Sued him or I ignore them?”. Ruth Dureghello, President of the Jewish Community of Rome, replied to this message, also on Twitter: «Our solidarity with Matteo Salvini. Defending Israel and supporting its reasons also means being forced to suffer insults and intimidation. One cannot be against violence and remain silent in the face of these manifestations of hatred ».
An expression of solidarity that has not gone unnoticed within the League. «The former Minister of the Interior – is the comment of the Green Party – was literally stormed by death threats (for him and his family) and vulgarity of all kinds. Reason: He expressed solidarity with Israel after the raid claimed by Hamas. Meanwhile, while demonstrations of solidarity arrive from the Jewish community (such as that of the President of the Jewish Community of Rome, Ruth Dureghello), the League notes the silence of politics starting from the center-left and the grillini ».
«Rockets are raining down on the heads of the children of Israel and for the fact that I have expressed my solidarity with a people who live underground in the bunkers tonight I have received insults. That there was a shameful silence. When there are death threats, the sentence should be unanimous “then declared Matteo Salvini, to”Out of the core”Are Rete4.
