ITALY FOR ISRAEL

Silvio may be wobbling on war, but Italians aren’t retreating from their support of Israel:

A pro-Israel demonstration was held in Rome Thursday following recent statements made by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad saying Israel “should be wiped off the map.”

Approximately 15,000 people participated in the rally, which was accompanied with chants of “viva Israel! viva freedom!” the website of the Italian newspaper La Republica reported. The rally was concluded with the singing of the Israeli national anthem, “Hatikvah.”

Protesters included right and left-wing politicians, local celebrities and Walter Veltroni, the mayor of Rome.

Bella.

  1. While Ahmadinejad is busy purging Iran’s reformists (despite them being islamic) we are still pussy footing about purging our own hair djelabis ...

  3. Q: What’s the difference between Jews and Italians?

    A: Jews make a killing in business, Italians make a business in killing.

    Grazia e buonanotte.

  4. Italian Muslims are also the most pro-Israel too.

  7. Bravo!
    More power to their right arms.
    The Islam Italia site (#4)truly suggests a religion of peace, and shows the wahabis for the cynically perverted thugs they are.

  8. Moderate Muslims need to be louder and more visible, though, if they want to save themselves from the Wahhabist perversion.  Those people are ruthless.

  9. YOU BLIND SHEEP!  This is obviously more of W’s insidious handiwork!  He either TRICKED those Italians into having this so-called “demonstration” {*} or he just PLANTED the story with the secretly-W-supporting mainstream media, all in order to DIVERT ATTENTION from the 2003rd thru 2005th U.S. soldier deaths in Iraq.

    {* “demonstration” ha!  I didn’t see ANY paper-mache heads in those photos!  That’s how you can tell the fake “demonstrations” from the real thing!}

    O/T but still in the demo vein.  Still on holidays in Tasmania and while shopping at Salamanca Markets this morning couldn’t help but overhear the greenies’ rally in the park next to it.  The news on television reported thousands attended.  There couldn’t have been more than five hundred and I think tourists from the markets made up half the audience.  Ahh, the MSM’s mathematics.
