While the guests at Lilli Gruber’s table discuss the war between Hamas and Israel that has broken out again after the surprise attacks on October 7, the moderator Otto e Mezzo reads the latest statement from White House national security spokesman John Kirby There would be few American hostages in the hands of Hamas militants. “It’s a shame because if there were a lot of American hostages, the United States could actually play a mediator role,” intervenes former Italian ambassador Elena Basile. A sentence that freezes the studio and infuriates Aldo Cazzullo: “But how can he say something like that?” As long as we’re joking, it’s fine, but that… Isn’t it good news that there are only a few American hostages? But what does he say? Be ashamed of your learning. The author, who has written several articles in “Il Fatto Quotidiano” under the pseudonym “Ipatia”, has already been criticized in the past for her positions on the war in Ukraine, for which she attributed the main responsibility to Zelensky and the government in Kiev . She tried to brush up on her skills as a former diplomat who represented Italy in Belgium and Sweden and tried to rectify the situation during the La7 program: “What difference would there be if there were more American hostages and fewer French hostages?” It’s an absurd attack. Don’t make a hierarchy of human lives.
