Assault on church in San Carlo Square: Dangerous act

By Guido Igliori- 18 August 2023

Attacks against Christian symbols continue around the world. Now (in our country). He threw rocks against the door of the San Carlo Borromeo Church, one of the most important religious buildings in Turin, in San Carlo Square, muttering phrases against Christians, like "Christian thieves". The video of a  man was shared yesterday by several (cell phone) users and went viral. In a square filled with tourists who witnessed the scene when the guy in question began to throw various objects, fruit, and rocks, against the door of the church, then escalated the act by throwing a huge stone in (an act of) blind violence as if he wanted to destroy the entire building. 

Do we want to recall the shocking cases over the course of last year such as the pack assault by non-EU citizens against some young Italian girls at Lake Garda? And what is to say about that other North African pack and the sexual violence perpetrated in Milan on New Year's Eve 2022 against some Italian girls of the same age? And the dozens of women harassed over the course of a few hours in Cologne on New Year's Eve 2016? The list is long and traverses the years and the countries, but the result always seems only this: The words, "welcome" and "integration" are not always in the same sentence. The second and third-generation immigrants need to understand (someone needs to teach them) that here there are other habits, other customs, and that a judicial system is in force which is not Sharia. 

Bernard Lewis, British historian and Orientalist, among the greatest experts on Islam on the world level, years ago, asked himself these questions: What is at the root of Islamic terrorist aggression against the West? Where and when did the violent opposition between Muslim fundamentalism and industrialized society form? Questions summarized in essays like, "The Crisis of Islam", "The Roots of Hate toward the West and the Origins of Muslim Anger", and "1500 Years of Confrontation between Islam and the West", just to cite a few.

Meanwhile, as if there should be a need, we are recording yet another assault on Christian symbols here in our country, of which we will speak in Loano on Thursday, 24 August on the stage at Italia Square on the concluding evening of the 9th Festival of Citta Identitaire. Accompanied by Mediterranean and Arabic melodies from Dounia (* Moroccan-American singer), we await you for the debate moderated by Edoardo Sylos Labini, on the encounter-confrontation between West and East (right at Loano, the city of Admiral Doria, who led the fleets in the famous Battle of Lepanto) with speakers of excellence: the Egyptian writer and journalist, converted to Christianity, Magdi Cristiano Allam,.courageous intellectual, who for years, has lived under guard for having criticized Islamic fundamentalism, and the Bishop of Ventimiglia-San Remo, Monsignor Antonio Suetta, who has often made freedom of thought his battle.
