Carro armato israeliano - da Euronews
28.07.2006 Poche immagini come quelle dei bambini israeliani che firmano i proiettili che i cannoni spareranno sul Libano dal Nord di Israele, parlano del senso della guerra, delle sue ragioni e delle sue implicazioni. Con la guerra bisognerebbe fare sul serio. Queste immagini ridisegnano la presunzione di innocenza e la divisione tra buoni e cattivi. Sappiamo molto poco, troppo poco, delle ragioni della guerra e delle vie della pace, per esprimere indicazioni che non siano morali. (...) Per questo desta una certa impressione l’ennesimo scritto, come sempre in tono aristo-radicalchic. di Adriano Sofri su la Repubblica di lunedģ 17 luglio. La critica alle posizioni “pacifiste” orientate a dire sempre no e solo no alla guerra, porta Sofri a sostenere che la negazione di “qualunque impiego della forza militare nei luoghi di crisi č uno slogan infantile”. Cosģ come, criticando Gino Strada, Sofri definisce “una sciocchezza colossale” sostenere, come Strada fa, che a Kabul oggi si sta peggio che sotto i taliban. La virulenza della critica di Sofri č evidente. Le sue implicazioni molto significative. Se vi č inefficacia nelle posizioni dei “mestieranti della pace a parole”, probabilmente dipende non dal fatto che dicono no alla guerra, ma dal loro limitarsi a dire “no”, per una questione di principio.
