Rome Jews Slam "Unacceptable Double Standards on Israel"

(ANSA-Italy) The Jewish Community of Rome said Monday it is "appalled" at the "complicit silence and double standards that continue to pollute public statements on the war in Israel and Gaza" sparked by the Hamas attacks of Oct. 7. "We would have expected unequivocal statements on the horrors committed by the terrorist organization Hamas, which is still holding over 100 Jewish hostages." "It is scandalous to put the defensive war of a country and a people that suffered a mass anti-Semitic attack on October 7 on the same level as the meticulous Jew-hunt involving the deliberate killing of 1,200 people including children one-by-one....It is double standards to demand that Israel stop and not to demand that the hostages be freed and those responsible prosecuted. We will not remain silent and will continue to denounce the unacceptable cultural complicity with terrorism."
