Luigi Marattin wrote that the secretary of the Communist Refoundation had asked why it was forbidden to hail Hamas. He described the party as having just entered the center-left coalition thanks to a senator "on loan" from the Democratic Party and argued that everything necessary should be done to prevent it from going to government. https://t.co/6oge3A1jdq #politica #centrosinistra #Hamas (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that, in his opinion, a person like the one he was referring to would have been part of the extra-parliamentary left ten, twenty, or thirty years ago, while today they could become a minister, undersecretary, or president of a parliamentary committee in a government and in a center-left majority. https://t.co/lXTI1qzyIa #politica #centrosinistra #governo (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that he discussed the previous evening in Filorosso with Professor Alessandro Orsini about Ukraine. He stated that he preferred to ask him simple and clear questions and listen to the answers, rather than attack or insult him. He invited the audience to evaluate whether the discussion had been useful, specifying that the editing had been done in about five minutes. He added that, in his opinion, Russian bots would have responded negatively, but it was important to leave people the opportunity to freely form an opinion. #Ucraina #dialogo #opinione (translated)

Luigi Marattin asked to set aside both the judgment on the Prime Minister and the opinions on the choice to comply with an administrative ruling that, according to him, required paying an additional billion to the magistrates or waiting for better times. He then asked whether it was normal for a serving magistrate to publicly express themselves about the Prime Minister in those terms or if it was a situation fit for a "Banana Republic." #politica #giustizia #democrazia (translated)

Luigi Marattin indicated as the first point of the Libdem Party the reduction of the size of the State and taxes, arguing that the expansion of the public apparatus had made it similar to an illusory "Mr. Wolf", presented to Italians as the only solution to the country's problems. According to Marattin, this model stifled private initiative and continuously increased taxes. He asked who agreed with the party's proposal. #Libertà #Tasse #Stato (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that in Iran young people were being put to death for aspiring to live freely like in the West, while in the West some young people were protesting with the flags of Iran, North Korea, Hamas, and Hezbollah. According to him, something had gone wrong. https://t.co/zCdYt60NvR #Libertà #DirittiUmani #Proteste (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that counting the dead was degrading, but he argued that ideological falsehoods about Gaza should come to an end. In his opinion, it was not a matter of favoring one side or the other, but of safeguarding the remaining possibilities for peace related to the Israeli elections at the end of the month and the Palestinian elections scheduled for September. https://t.co/AagUgda9yE #Gaza #Pace #Elezioni (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that, in his opinion, there was an attempt to convince Western public opinion to side against Israel, rather than in favor of the Palestinian people. He argued that these were two different positions and referred to a video in which he explained why. https://t.co/ccQZWz2t68 #Israele #Palestina #OpinionePubblica (translated)

Luigi Marattin called the incident that occurred in Reggio Emilia offensive and ridiculous, claiming that some teachers and educators from American Jewish schools visiting to study the local educational model were pressured by pro-Palestinian activists to sign a statement against the Israeli occupation in Gaza. He stated that Reggio Emilia was a world excellence in early childhood education and would remain so despite the incident. Marattin contested the association between Jewish and Israeli identity, recalling that, according to what he wrote, 20% of the Israeli population is Muslim and enjoys the same rights and duties of citizenship. He argued that confusing the two identities was a form of religious discrimination. He also questioned why, if the intent was to reaffirm the values of peace and tolerance of the Reggio model, Muslim, Turkish, or American visitors had not been asked to dissociate themselves from the actions or policies of their respective governments. Marattin asked if anyone had ever been asked to condemn the terrorist attack of October 7, which he called criminal, and criticized those who referred to it as resistance during demonstrations in various Italian cities over the weekend, referring to the participants with a pejorative term. Finally, he stated that he was left speechless by the defense of the incident by prominent national figures of the center-left. #ReggioEmilia #Scuola #Educazione (translated)

Luigi Marattin corrected a mistake made on Piazzapulita, where he referred to UN Security Council Resolution 242 as "282." He argued that the text, adopted after the Six-Day War in June 1967, stipulated two conditions to be met together: the Israeli withdrawal from occupied territories and the recognition of the right to existence and peace of all states in the region, including Israel. Marattin recalled that in 1979 Egypt accepted a land exchange for peace and that Israel returned the Sinai. He added that the Egyptian leader Anwar Sadat was then assassinated. According to Marattin, other Arab states and Hamas, which emerged in the late 1980s, did not recognize Israel's right to exist. He stated that after Israel's unilateral withdrawal from Gaza in 2005, Hamas did not initiate a disarmament and peace process. He linked this position to Arafat's rejection of the Camp David Accords in 2000 and accused Hamas of oppressing Palestinians, launching rockets at civilians in southern Israel, and preparing the attack on October 7, 2023. In conclusion, he urged readers to verify the text of the resolution and accused pro-Palestinian propagandists of spreading falsehoods. #ONU #Pace #MedioOriente (translated)

Luigi Marattin responded to Corrado Formigli, who in the Corriere had described as "an embarrassing confusion" what the deputy said on Piazzapulita. Marattin mentioned that he has been reading investigative journalism and historical studies on conflicts for decades and cited Il Legionario, a book about Giustino De Vuono, arguing that its author documented the presented theses. Marattin accused the documentary Naza of making unfounded accusations. He cited the bombing which, according to the mentioned reconstruction, would have killed 500 civilians, stating that no evidence of either the attack or the death toll had been presented. He argued that the only source was Hamas's word, treated as truth, while Israeli accounts were dismissed as propaganda. He added that he had said on air that, in wartime, he did not consider the reports of the involved parties reliable and preferred those from independent observers. For this reason, he described Israel's decision not to allow foreign journalists into Gaza, even at their own risk, as a mistake. Marattin accused Formigli of not listening to this point and of silencing dissenters, imposing his own opinion. Finally, he wrote that he would have liked to read a "mea culpa" from the host for his statements about Israeli children on October 7. #giornalismodinchiesta #storia #media (translated)

Luigi Marattin argued that the conflict in Gaza was the only one in history where the international community accepted the data provided by one of the parties as credible, likening the situation to the official dissemination, in 1943, of the numbers from the SS bulletins. He cited the case of a school for which, according to him, rumors of hundreds of casualties had spread: he stated that it later emerged that a missile from Islamic Jihad had mistakenly hit a Palestinian building and that the number of casualties had been scaled down. Marattin added that the manipulation of public opinion in that affair would be studied for centuries. #Gaza #Conflitto #Manipolazione (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that during last night’s episode of Piazza Pulita he had tried to ask two questions. The first was why, according to him, the Palestinian leadership had rejected peace plans for the creation of a Palestinian state approved by Israel in 2000 and 2008. The second was why, after the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza in 2005, Hamas had turned the territory into a “terrorist state” instead of disarming and initiating a peace process, as other armed groups had done. Marattin finally asked if he had had a chance to receive answers. #Israele #Palestina #Pace (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that he found himself the previous evening in a television broadcast where, according to him, the killing of Israeli children by Hamas on October 7 was called into question by authoritative voices. He stated that he felt it necessary to intervene and added that he hates war, especially those who provoke it. #pace #guerra #Israele (translated)

Luigi Marattin wrote that he participated in the commemoration of the massacre on October 7 at the Synagogue of Milan, together with Senator Liliana Segre, Graziano Delrio, Maurizio Gasparri, the President of the Lombardy Region Attilio Fontana, the municipal councilor Martina Riva, Emanuele Fiano, and hundreds of people. He reaffirmed his support for freedom, democracy, and peaceful coexistence among peoples and religious denominations. #Libertà #Democrazia #Pace (translated)

Luigi Marattin argued that, in the last three years, Western societies had been exposed to a vast campaign of disinformation and psychological conditioning regarding the conflict in Gaza. In his view, this had overshadowed the massacre of October 7, presented by some as an episode of resistance, and spread false claims about genocide, civilian casualties, and attacks on Palestinians seeking food. Marattin said that the reasons for what he termed a campaign of lies would be clarified by historians and hypothesized that factors such as identification with the weaker side, funding of Islamic extremism, and anti-Jewish prejudice had contributed to it. He stated that in the "information war," responses were beginning to appear in the form of documentaries: he mentioned *Naza: the Real Story*, which, according to him, offered more evidence and did not rely on anonymous testimonies, and *We will dance again*, shown the previous night by Nicola Porro and containing images from October 7. Marattin wrote that those images had marked those who had seen them and urged for countering falsehoods without fear of going against dominant thinking. He also accused some protesters with Hamas flags and others of having embraced propaganda and ideology. Finally, he said he would be in Milan the following day to commemorate October 7, which he defined as a dark day for Western civilization, and thanked the Milanese Jewish community for the invitation. #Disinformazione #Guerra #Milano (translated)

Combattere i falsi invalidi per aumentare il sussidio ai veri invalidi. Combattere gli evasori fiscali per abbassare le tasse ai contribuenti onesti. Pagare meno chi nella pubblica amministrazione lavora male per pagare di più chi lavora bene. Ridurre gli sprechi negli appalti pubblici per abbassare ancora le tasse a famiglie e imprese. Ridurre la complessità delle regole (togliendo lavoro a chi vive della complessità delle cose) per agevolare famiglie e imprese. Ridurre le cose che lo Stato fa, per fare meglio quelle che non può che fare lui. È una ricetta che si mette contro (e violentemente) quella parte di Italia che vive sulle truffe, sull’assistenzialismo, sull’evasione fiscale, sulle forniture pubbliche gonfiate, sull’inefficienza e sull’egualitarismo del settore pubblico. Ma è la ricetta del @Partito_Libdem , che a voi piaccia o no. Perché c’è invece un pezzo di Paese che si è stancato di pagare per mantenere quel pezzo di prima. #Riforme #GiustiziaFiscale #EfficienzaPubblica
