SECURITY PACKAGE, THE LETTER OF Zanotelli
few hours comes into force on security package, many rules ridiculous and appalling, stupid and inhuman, of which the application is not yet clear. What upsets me most is the norm on the prohibition of registration of newborns by parents illegal. Luck is at that point the children as "children of unknown parents" become automatically Italians, but the risk is that they would be ready for adoption. Apparently. But we'll see and, of course, to report. Meanwhile, carry the most comprehensive comment which I think has been written about this decree of the Italian government.
SECURITY PACKAGE: WE HAVE ONLY A SHAME
The Senate today approved the so-called Minister of Interior Security Package Maroni.Mi ashamed of being Italian and being Christian. I never thought that a country like Italy could pass a law as racist and xenophobic. We who have lived for centuries by migrating to find a loaf of bread (there are 60 million Italians living abroad!), Now repeat about immigrants the same treatment but rather grew worse that we Italians have suffered a bit 'all over the world.This law was passed in the wake of a long growing racism and xenophobia in the league is the best espressione.Il heart of the law is that the underground is now a criminal. I would remind you that illegal immigrants are not criminals but those economic and financial structures that force people to emigrate. Pope John 23 degrees in Pacem in Terris is a reminder that emigrate diritto.Fra other things the law requires the tax to the residence permit (our immigrants are not harassed enough already?), The patrols, the residence permit of points , restrictive rules on family reunification and mixed marriages, imprisonment of up to 4 years for illegal immigrants who do not respect the order of expulsion, and finally the ban illegal for a woman who gives birth in hospital to recognize their child or enroll in the Registry. This is an apartheid legislation , who comes from afar via the Turkish-Napolitano law unconstitutional until the Bossi-Fini. All of this is the result of a political world of left and right who pilloried washers, street vendors, beggars and Roma. This is a racist culture that is leading us into the abyss of exclusion and marginalization. "This threatens to drain from the constitutional guarantees built 60 years ago - so they wrote in their appeal to anthropologists Italian - against the return of fascism that revealed itself to the racial laws. "I would note that our Constitution was written largely by political exiles, returned home from exile as a result of Fascism. Twice the Italian constitution speaks of asylum, that the parliament has never transformed into He reads not only ashamed to be Italian, but I am ashamed even to be Christian, this law is the denial of fundamental truths of the Good News of Jesus of Nazareth. I ask the Italian Church the courage to denounce in no uncertain terms that a law is at odds with the fundamentals of the faith cristiana.Penso that as Christians we have the courage of civil disobedience. This is the invitation who had made the cardinal R. Mahoney of Los Angeles (California) in 2006 when he struggled in the U.S. where a similar law stated that the illegal immigrant is a criminal. In the homily of Ash Wednesday in his cathedral, the cardinal of Los Angeles said that if the law was approved, he asked his staff and all the diocesan priests civil disobedience. I think that the Italian bishops should do today altrettanto.Davanti this law I am ashamed as a missionary I was a guest of the peoples of Africa for over 20 years, we now reject people, indifferent to their situations of injustice and impoverishment of . We Italians should remember all those words that God spoke to Israel: "Do not vex a stranger nor oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt" (Exodus 22:20).
