"Leave Primo Levi to our memory. Have the dignity to express your thoughts without offending the memory of the survivors and look for quotes elsewhere".
Thus, to ANSA, Noemi Di Segni, president of the Union of Italian Jewish Communities, regarding the news of the procession organized in Rome by Palestinians for Remembrance Day, and the quote from Primo Levi used by the movement to announce the demonstration.
"The hatred and racial supremacy of the time generated the Shoah - underlines the Ucei president - Islamic extremism generates terrorism which today also reaches Europe and makes its way with these forms of reversal and support".
The Palestinian Students Movement explains on its social media channels that the march intends to "expose the hypocrisies of a system... which beats its chest for the victims of a genocide that has already occurred while turning its indifferent and complicit gaze towards an ongoing genocide".
And then placed the words that the writer Primo Levi, deported to Auschwitz, dedicated to the horrors of the Holocaust: "If understanding is impossible to know, it is necessary, because what happened can return, consciences can once again be seduced and obscured: even ours".
