Rome, November 21 (Adnkronos) – “There is reason to be horrified by the guerrilla war waged in Bologna by the usual suspects of violence carried out by radical left-wing groups, but there is also reason to be alarmed by the fact that the city government is raising its hands in surrender in the face of troublemakers. I completely agree with the reasons given for not moving the Virtus-Maccabi basketball game from Bologna to Casalecchio. Democratic institutions do not give in to the blackmail of violent people, otherwise this would being the end of the rule of law, on the contrary, Mayor Matteo Lepore will demand that the match not be played in Bologna, surrendering without dignity in the face of threats from the most violent and aggressive pitch”. This was stated by Lega MP Jacopo Morrone.
“There is no point in ignoring this, the Lepore government – added the representative of the Northern League – has indulged, shared and supported the pro-Pal protests in recent months, giving credence to lies against Israel, inciting hatred, anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism and, when talking about ‘peace’, has in fact caressed Hamas comrades and political Islamists in Italy who sparked the protests. Today Lepore is not only the victim of the agitators from the square, which he has not been able to manage, but he is their accomplice because he did not able to protect Bologna from extremist extortion. The hope is that the urban guerrilla war taking place in Bologna, according to press reports, will be quelled as soon as possible by any means permitted, so that there will be no casualties among the police and no voice will emerge in defense of those who try to subvert the democratic order by force faced with their responsibility and their total failure as representatives of the institution.”
