How Long Do You Have To Serve In The Marines

Clandestine Libya: Our consistent inconsistency

That and ... well known


A journey through the Libyan boats Bounced Italian art of turning the omelette




ITALIANO

Today I want to present a small case of congenital diversity suffers from inconsistency.

You know the church world? What made people their churches plating of gold, silver and various trinkets and that you bring to the crucified neck with which to feed at least 300 children in Burundi? Those who preach a lot of good things and sugar and then hide behind their pedophile priests Vatican jurisdiction? Ok, we have them present.





Sometimes these individuals may be surprised with strange statements that may even seem human:


1. Father Gianromano Gnesotto (director of the pastoral care of migrants of the IEC) safety standards of the bill as well as to undermine human rights immigrants threatening, more generally, recognition of basic rights to health education for all citizens.




2. Archbishop Agostino Marchetto (Secretary of the Pontifical Council for Migrants and Itinerant People): "the return of illegal migrants in Libya has violated international standards on the rights of refugees, and some rules of the security package - such as mandatory reporting of doctors - prelude to "serious difficulties" for the realization of human rights of immigrants in Italy.



3. Father Alex Zanotelli (missionary Comboni): "I am shocked in front of each other like this, and 'a national disgrace. First of all, because to reject immigrants is Italy, which mentions in its Constitution for two times the right to political asylum, although not have a law on the subject. "


But divine justice, which always moves the threads of Italy's inconsistency, which requires on the one hand it seems that there is a way not to look just the most deficient of the universe, the other ...



1. Cota, (Leader of the House League): "I am Catholic and I often speak with my pastor and also with my bishop and these positions, such as those of Archbishop Marchetto, are not the positions of the CEI. On several occasions, including public, the Church has never said that it was against the measures that the Government is implementing these days immigration.


2. According Cicchitto (Chairman of the Members PDL) is not racism to reject the boats from Libya: "Even for this - he says - has been put the vote of confidence on the draft law on security. You can not play sull'equivoco between illegal immigration and immigration policy based on expected cash flows of the Bossi-Fini law, which retains its basic validity. If, in the name of a generic anti-racism, these two types of immigration are confusing the damage would be serious, not least because Italy would become the soft underbelly of Europe "against countries such as France and Spain," follow a very strict line, rather hard. "


3. And in line with what was just said, Calderoli (Minister for Simplification Statement): "The rejections have never existed before today, are on the Bossi Fini and today you can achieve" ... "says a revolutionary step with the past ".
4. Maroni, (Interior Minister) satisfied, saying" in 5 days we have rejected more than 6 boats for about 1500 illegal immigrants that were to be hosted by us. " And yet "Closing the bleeding from Libya, we can say that the scourge of illegal immigration can be said to be resolved. It 's not been easy. "



But while I try to remember when did we have to a degree honoris causa in medicine at Maroni, I am assailed by a doubt: but someone outside the Bel Paese hear these things?




No time to think, and while Maroni is ending the phrase "historic turning point ..", here is the UN:

  • Among "serious concern" and "deep regret at the lack of transparency that has characterized the unfolding of this incident," the UNHCR about the mouth of António Guterres, UN High Commissioner High Commissioner for Refugees: "I appeal to the Italian and Maltese authorities to continue to provide to persons rescued at sea in need of international protection and full access to the territory and asylum procedure in the European Union."
  • Again Laurens Jolles, Representative UNHCR in Italy, "So far we have worked closely with Italian authorities in Lampedusa and across the country to ensure that people fleeing war and persecution are given protection in line with the Geneva Convention 1951. E 'of fundamental importance that the international principle of non-refoulement continues to be fully respected. "
  • Up to reach Thomas Hammarberg, Commissioner for Human Rights, Council of Europe, which calls on the international community to "support the positions Vatican and the UN and stop the unilateral initiative of Italy. " Adding that "The Italian initiative totally undermines the right of every human being to obtain asylum.


Since there are, remember that Libya has not signed the 1951 Refugee Convention and does not have a national asylum system is too efficient.

Among the many well-meaning then also get the boot Don Luigi Ciotti that used to fight with the combination of which he is president, Freedom, is not lost in the chatter and goes straight to the point "The multi-ethnic society is a reality for all developed countries, but we only the phenomenon of migration is the subject of simplifications, populist measures as unworkable, cynical power plays. Only here a human story that concerns the fate of thousands of people but also our own - because only together with foreign people may think they have a future, a new cultural wealth and new economic development - seems to slip in a china d 'barbarism and inhumanity. "


And rightly points out that "data in hand, where it is shown that the migration issue has been addressed with a 'mix' of vision and humanity, creating the conditions for integration true, full ownership of rights and duties, crimes have decreased. "
Sante words dear Don Ciotti!

At this point, as in all democratic countries of the West, the head of state would intervene to bring order, sense of duty and deliver a bit 'of responsibility. Ah, but here it is!

5. The President of the Republic, Giorgio Napolitano , said: "International cooperation is also to be favored in the fight against illegal immigration and crime on foreign territory, which could lead to a widespread perception of insecurity and intolerance of concern."

No no, sorry, I was wrong ... usually people listen to him:

6. Silvio Berlusconi, President of the Council: "The left had opened the doors, the left was and is that of a 'multi-ethnic Italy: our idea is not so."


So, think about how we actually multiethnic: the

UNHCR home page we find ourselves among the worried articles about Chad and Pakistan!

Meanwhile, the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said he "supports" the demands made by the High Commission of the United Nations for Refugees (UNHCR) to Italy to readmit dismissed by the requirements to apply for protection. And Berlusconi? Supports Maroni.



E Maroni said that?



"I confirm and warrant to the criticisms, even violent accusations that are made by some UN representative, that is not the UN, and some Catholic organization, that is not the Vatican, I enter on one side and out the other. "

Ah, right! Basically ... if you give a fuck!


And now the situation:
  • Libya
  • Italy
  • People who are (de) brought from another part
  • Xenophobia
  • international organization that opposes
  • The head of state "token" which is dumb


Ma .. what a strange feeling ... I think I've already heard these things ..


Ah! But I was forgetting a statement!


7. La Russa (Defence Minister): "To say that the Italian company must be absolutely convinced that we need to maintain their identity, traditions, culture does not mean it can not become Italian people of any religion, race or origin, but means that must not dispose of our history which we are unique in the world .


But not all. "The argument to defend the Italian identity once were only a few to defend it, now with the words of the President of the Council are the majority."



Wait a minute ... we are always in 2009, right?




(I invite you to read

here, where the issue is addressed in a serious way ...!)

Libyan clandestines: our consistent inconsistency
A trip between Libyan returned to the sender and the Italian art of art of spinning the omelettes


Today I want to present you a small case of differences affected by congenital inconsistency.


You know the ecclesiastical world? That one composed by people who plat their churches with gold, silver and various trinket and get a crucifixes in the neck with which they’d be able to feed at least 300 children in Burundi? Those who preach many good e sweet things and who hide priests pedophiles behind the Vatican’s jurisdiction? Ok, you’ve got them.


Sometimes these samples may surprise you with strange statements that may even seem them human:


1. Father Gianromano Gnesotto (Director of the Office for the Pastoral Care of immigrants - Cei): standards of safety plan in addition to endangering the human rights of immigrants pose a threat, more generally, the recognition of basic rights to health and to education for all citizens.

2. Monsignor Agostino Marchetto (Secretary of the Pontifical Council for Migrants and Itinerant People): "the repatriation of illegal immigrants in Libya has violated international standards on the rights of refugees", and some rules of the security package - such as the compulsory notification of doctors - prelude "serious difficulties" for the realization of human rights of immigrants in Italy.

3. Father Alex Zanotelli (Comboni missionary): "I am shocked in front of these things, it’s a national disgrace. First of all, because to reject immigrants is Italy, which mentions the right to asylum politically for two times in its constitution, even if do not have a low on this”.

But the divine justice, which always moves the Italian inconsistency wires, imposes that if on one hand it seems that there is a way to not sound like the most deficient of the universe, on the other ...

1. Cota, (leader of the Lega in the House): "I am a Catholic and often speak with my pastor and also with my bishop and these positions, such as Monsignor Marchetto, are not the positions of Cei. On several occasions, including public ones, the Church has never said that it was against the measures that the Government is implementing in these days about immigration."

2. According Cicchitti (Chairman of the Members PDL), is not racism to reject the boats from Libya: "Even for this - affirms – the DDL security plan has been voted. We cannot play on the misunderstanding between illegal immigration and immigration policy based on the pattern provided by Bossi-Fini law, which remains valid in the background. If, in the name of a generic anti-racism, these two types of immigration are confusing the damage could be enormous, and Italy could become the soft belly of Europe" compared with countries such as France and Spain,"that follow by a very strict, even harsh line."

3. And in line with what we just said, Calderoli (Minister for legislative Simplification): "The refusals have never existed before today, they are worth of Bossi-Fini law and today we can achieve them" ... "it emphasizes a revolutionary step with the past" .

4. Maroni, (Interior Minister) satisfied, says "in 5 days we have rejected more than 6 boats for about 1,500 illegal immigrants who should have been hosted by us." And yet "Closing bleeding from Libya, we can say that the scourge of illegal immigration can be considered resolved. It's not been easy."

But while I try to remember when Maroni’s got a medicine degree, a doubt comes to me: is someone outside Italy hearing all these things?

Not even time to think it, and while Maroni is ending the phrase "historical turning point ..", here's the UN:

Between "serious concern" and "deep regret at the lack of transparency that has characterized the unfolding of this episode," the UNHCR speaks by the mouth of António Guterres, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees: "I call the Italian and Maltese authorities to continue to provide to persons saved at sea and in need of international protection, full access to the territory and asylum procedure in the European Union. "

And Laurens Jolles, UNHCR Representative in Italy: "So far we have worked in close collaboration with the Italian authorities in Lampedusa and throughout the country to ensure that people fleeing war and persecution are given protection in line with the Geneva Convention of 1951. It’s of vital importance that the international principle of non-refoulement continues to be fully respected ".

Reaching to Thomas Hammarberg, Commissioner for Human Rights of the Council of Europe, which calls the international community to "support the positions of the Vatican and the UN and stop the unilateral initiative of Italy." He adds that "The Italian initiative completely undermines the right of every human being to obtain asylum."

I remember that Libya has not acceded to the Convention on Refugees of 1951 and it does not have an efficient national system of asylum.

Among the many well-meaning broadsheets of “the Boot” comes also don Luigi Ciotti, accustomed to fighting with the association of which he is chairman, Freedom (an anti-mafia association), he is not lost in the chatter and goes direct to the point: "The multi-ethnic society is a reality for all countries developed, but only by us, the phenomenon of migration has been simplified, populist measures as unworkable, cynical games of power. Only from us a human story that concerns the fate of thousands of people but also our own - because only together, with the foreign people, we can think of having a future, a new cultural richness and a new economic development - it seems to slip into a china of incivility and inhumanity. "

It rightly points out that "data in hand, it has shown that wherever the migration issue has been addressed with a 'mix' of vision and humanity, creating conditions for a real integration, full ownership rights and duties, the offenses have fallen."

Saints words, dear don Ciotti!

At this point, as in all democratic Countries, the head of State would be operative to bring order, sense of duty and deliver responsibilities. Ah, but here he is!

5. The President of the Republic, Giorgio Napolitano, said: "International cooperation has to be favored in the fight against illegal immigration and crime on foreign territory, which are likely to lead to a widespread perception of insecurity and worrying phenomena of intolerance."

No no, sorry, I was wrong ... People usually use to listen to this guy:

6. Silvio Berlusconi, President of the Council: "The left had opened the doors, the left was and is for a multiethnic-Italy: our idea isn’t so."

So, in effect we are multi-ethnic in the reality: in the home page of the UNHCR, we are among the anxious articles about Chad and Pakistan!

Meanwhile, the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said he "supports" the demands made by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to Italy to readmit dismissed by the requirements to seek protection. And Berlusconi? He supports Maroni.

E Maroni said that…?

"I confirm and assure that criticism, including violent allegations made by some UN representative, who is not the UN, and some Catholic organization, which is not the Vatican, comes from a ear and leave to the other.”

Ah, right! Basically ... he doesn’t care!


And now the state of play:

  • Libya
  • Italy
  • People who are (de) courses elsewhere
  • Xenophobia
  • Opposition of an International organization
  • The “symbolic” head of state which is neutral

But… what a strange feeling ... I seem to have already heard these things...

Ah! I was forgetting a statement!

7. La Russa (Defense Minister): "To maintain that the Italian society has to be convinced that it needs to keep its own identity, traditions, culture, does’t means that persons with different religion, race or origin can’t become Italian. It means that we must not disperse our history, it means that we are unique in the world."


But there's more. "Once there were few people to defend the Italian identity, now - with the words of the President of the Council - we are the majority."

Wait a minute ... Are we in 2009, is That I know?
