Rome's Jews on Wednesday called on
authorities to ban a por-Palestinian march in the Italian
capital on Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27.
The president of Rome's Jewish Community, Victor Fadlun, said
the march would be a "defeat for everyone" if it went ahead.
"We don't understand how it was possible to grant authorisation
on a Day that is international, all the more so in the context
of October 7, an anti-semitic massacre (by Hamas) the like of
which had not been seen since the times of Nazism.
"We ask the institutions, national and local, to prevent this
disgrace".
He said the wound of the Shoah would be reopened by an allegedly
anti-semitic event on the Day of Memory.
