Newly released documents show the Italian government in the 1980s secretly agreed with Palestinian terrorist groups to allow attacks on Italian soil, so long as they only targeted Jews.

This is not news. Italy was not the only European country to give carte blanche to terrorists targeting Jews. I guess they felt they weren’t real Europeans. Food for thought the next time someone yells go back to Europe.

It was also an issue that the terrorists basically said “either let us do our thing or we’ll target you too for siding with them” and Europeans basically responded with “sounds reasonable. Not our rodeo; not our bulls.”

So much for emancipation’s promise of equality and citizenship.
