Titolo: A papal warning

A quanto pare, anche il FT legge l'intervento del Papa come una censura 
alle leggi razziali introdotte dal governo. Anche il papa sarà diventato 
buonista/comunista?

A papal warning
Published: August 19 2008 19:10 | Last updated: August 19 2008 19:10
Last month the Italian government declared a national state of emergency 
in reaction to a sharp rise in illegal immigration. Earlier it had 
unveiled a plan to fingerprint members of the Gypsy community, including 
children, and to carry out a census in camps for illegal migrants. The 
interior minister declared that “nomads” who were not Italian citizens 
and did not meet the conditions to stay in the country would be deported.
On top of such measures, the government of Silvio Berlusconi has 
deployed 3,000 armed and uniformed soldiers on the streets of nine main 
cities in order to provide greater “public security”. That is the most 
visible part of a law-and-order package introduced by the centre-right 
government to reassure Italian citizens that it is tackling a wave of 
street crime largely attributed to foreigners.
The trouble is that there is no hard evidence of such a crime wave, only 
the perception of one. The measures the government has introduced, 
particularly in singling out Gypsies – many of whom are Italian citizens 
– threaten to aggravate that perception and fuel a xenophobic backlash 
against perfectly legal migrants, and anyone of foreign origin, as well 
as those without papers.
The Italian measures have been strongly criticised by the Council of 
Europe’s commissioner for human rights, and by the United Nations High 
Commissioner for Refugees. At the weekend Pope Benedict warned about 
“recent examples of racism”. He reminded Roman Catholics that it was 
their duty to steer their fellow-citizens away from “racism, intolerance 
and exclusion”.
The Pope did not mention Italy, but his concern follows an outspoken 
editorial in a popular Roman Catholic weekly that infuriated Mr 
Berlusconi’s government by daring to suggest that “fascism” might be 
“resurfacing under another guise”. Although the Vatican insists the 
magazine does not represent its views, the pontiff’s intervention 
suggests that concern has reached the highest level.
So it should. Accusations of fascism may be too easily made, but 
inflammatory language from members of the government, and measures 
targeting individual ethnic groups such as Gypsies, have a dreadful 
historical precedent. Other countries in Europe, such as Spain, are 
dealing with an even greater proportion of immigrants without resorting 
to any such measures. Immigration is a fact of life in Europe today, and 
an economic necessity. The key is to manage the process of integration, 
not to inflame prejudice against the least protected.

 buonista/comunista?
sarò sordo io ma i tg hanno parlato del papa guardandosi bene dal
citare anche queste critiche...com'è, il papa va bene solo finchè dice
cose che fanno comodo?
