What is happening in Italy

Welcome to our article (64) what is happening in Italy now?

Dear readers, this article has been written the first time in early 2017, so, if you are looking for, what is happening in Italy now in 2020 about the coronavirus disease, you need to read this article Coronavirus in Italy, My Views, See you there.

Anyhow, let me go back to my old article. I am writing this article about what is happening in Italy now, because there has been a change of leadership in the Italian government. Since I have written a few articles about the Italian refugees, I am interested about what is happening in Italy, even though I am far away from Italy. Anyhow, I want to say, how we Italians see these political things. Perhaps I could have ignored them, since personally they cannot affect me, but I want to write this article about how I see what is happening there, then we will have a break from these Italian politics that never seem to end, because, as soon as they fix something, something else goes wrong.

Anyhow, as we have said in our last article, this election about the Italian constitution has taken place and the result was negative, therefore, there will not be any change to the constitution. But what other change this election may trigger, we don’t know. So, we should be concerned about what can happen.

Perhaps, now they must form a new government, since the prime minister has resigned, therefore, there must be other changes as well. Now if that is going to be the case, with a new government in charge, we may ask; what about those promises that this present government has given to the Italian refugees, that are homeless, because of the earthquake. So, we wonder if those promises are going to be kept?

Anyhow, today while I am writing this article, we know that the Italian premier ‘Mateo Renzi’ has resigned and few days later a new premier was elected. So, now it is the turn of this new premier, ‘Paolo Gentiloni’. This new PM is calmer compared to Mateo Renzi, now because the Italian politics today are a bit rough, we wonder if his calm personality is going to help him or disadvantage him. I suppose only time will tell, because these are very difficult times that we have in Italy these days.

Earthquake and boat people

 What we can see here are some damages from the earthquakes that started the 24 of August. Even though the Italians have been busy to fix them, it will take a long time and a lot of money, we hope that the Italians are able to fix those ruins soon.

Now in Italy they have also these ferugees that come by boats, they also need help, as they need to be fed and housed, so there is a lot to do to solve these problems.

This is what is happening

Now that Paolo Gentiloni has become PM, it seems that Italy has solved the first obstacle, because they have elected a new premier, but there are lots of problems over there, because of the overseas refugees, the earthquake refugees and the terrorists. You see, the terrorist that carried out the Berlin attack has ended up in Italy, now even though he has been killed by the Italian police, while he was trying to kill two policemen with his gun, this matter may not end there. Anyhow, he got killed and that is the end of him. But there is a question to be asked, why he has gone to Italy after he killed 12 people and wounded many others in Berlin?

One cannot help thinking that he has friends in Italy, which have helped hiding him somewhere. There is also the possibility that his friends can carry out some violent acts against the Italians. You see, these people don’t have any respect for humanity, they only think about how to punish others. If we want to look for a reason why they carry out these violent acts, we see many things that don’t make sense to us of the western world. You see, we of the western world help them when they are down, we take them in our own country and feed them, we go to help them and pull them out of the sea before they drown, on humanitarian grounds, and what we get from them for our help? After all the benefit that we have given them; they turn around and kill us.

Here I want to make my own personal comparison; about what I think they are like. To me they are living in the past, they behave like mediaeval people, as far as I can see, because what is happening in the Middle East now, it is mediaeval behaviour. This makes me think, that they behave like the people of a thousand years ago, when they would arm themselves and try to conquest anything in their ways. They don’t want to see, that we are living in the third millennium, counting from the coming of our lord Jesus Christ. Anyhow, we better stop talking about them, because it will not help much. Now let us look at what is happening right now in Italy.

----------------------------------

Let us look at what could be done

Now let us look at the problems that they have in Italy, after the new PM has been elected. In our opinion it is very likely that everything remains the same, just as it was before and the priority remain the same, in the hope that these problems can be solved soon. You see, the government over there, needs to give better temporary shelter to the earthquake victims, because it is hard to live is substandard accommodation when it is very cold, and in winter times it can be very cold over there, after fixing the temporary accommodations and other things, they need to restart rebuilding all the houses and other building that have been damaged from the earthquake, and this may take even years to fix everything, but let us hope that they can do it in a reasonable time.

Then they have the overseas refugees, that they provide with whatever they need, not only feed them, but also give them accommodations, now, this may arise a conflict of interest, because there are a lot of Italians that don’t have a house, so, how can the Italian government give houses to the overseas refugees, when there are Italians that don’t have one?

All this becomes more complicated, when we think of the terrorist attacks. You see, how a government can help these refugees, when they turn around and kill you? It is completely out of place to help those ungrateful refugees. But then on humanitarian grounds we should help them, even if some of them don’t deserve any help.

Now that we have gone over the main problems that the Italian government needs to address, let us hope that prime minister Paolo Gentiloni, can guide them in such a way, that most of these problems are solved.

Anyhow, I believe that this article is becoming too long, so, I am going to write another article about, The Italian homeless, then we are writing a few articles about Australian pensioners allarmed, and the Australian pension cut.

See you soon.
